Manicure Monday: London Calling
With British mania sparked by the upcoming Olympic Games in London, I absolutely had to create a manicure inspired by the hype. I’ve had this Manicure Monday planned for months, ever since Editor-in-Chief Kristine sent me Rimmel London’s Instant Art Press On Color nail stickers with a British flag pattern. I knew I had to […]
Beauty, Simplified
You may be the kind of girl who isn’t big on wearing makeup because she thinks it takes too much time. You could be the girl who would love to wear makeup regularly, but only wears it when she’s going out for a night on the town. Maybe you’re the girl who knows everything there […]
Manicure Monday: Bold Stripes!
As a lover of anything that has to do with manicures, I’m constantly trying to come up with something new and fun for Manicure Monday. To me, Manicure Monday has become more than just showing off what cute color I’m rocking that week. To be honest, I can’t have a Manicure Monday without making it […]
My Journey of Hair
In January of 2008, I made a decision. It was my senior year of high school, and a time of uncertainty. Where would I be a year from then? What would I be doing? Who would I be friends with? For most people, it’s a big decision-making time. This decision was unlike many that others […]
Is Your Makeup Too Old?

Unfortunately, by the time your makeup starts to stink, it’s […]
Manicure Monday: Sweet Floral
Happy Manicure Monday! After a great holiday weekend, I’m feeling flirty and floral today. I decided to try to take the difficulty level of my manis up a notch this week – but don’t worry, they’re still totally DIYable. Just like my leopard print manicure, the best part about this nail art is that it doesn’t […]
Manicure Monday: Preppy Blues
My inspiration for this week’s Manicure Monday came from my weekend getaway in Ocean City, Maryland with my boyfriend. I’m typically dedicated to the Jersey Shore, but as a last hurrah before we both start work, we decided to do some traveling. Ocean City is absolutely beautiful. For those of you that know the Jersey […]
Manicure Monday: Black Caviar
5,000 page views and the purchase of our very own domain name is cause for celebration! I’ve decided to celebrate in the best way I know how – my manicure! The most perfect celebration manicure is a caviar manicure, of course. Thanks to an awesome graduation present from one of my sorority sisters (Thanks, Melissa!), […]
Manicure Monday: Polka Dots!
For this week’s Manicure Monday, I was inspired by Pinterest. I’m not quite sure who pinned what, but I know I saw polka dots and needed to try it. Who doesn’t love some good ol’ fashioned polka dots? I wasn’t sure how to achieve this look without clumping gobs of polish onto my nail (which […]
Birchbox – And Why You Should Try It!
As a lover of all things beauty, I know the longing feeling of wanting to try every new product out there. I also know how expensive such a habit can be, as well as the heartbreak of an empty bank account. In order to curb my spending, I joined Birchbox. I like to explain Birchbox […]
