Essie 'A List'

Essie 'A List"

I adore a good red nail. I don't know why but it makes me feel sexy. Now I know we're dead in the middle of May and a blood red color is not exactly "in", but who follows rules nowadays? A List is so freaking pretty and makes me feel put together even if I look like crap. It's a cream finish, but honestly that's nothing new as creams are my favorite. I cant be bothered with subtle shimmer. It's full on glitter or cream for me! I prefer it to brighter reds mainly because to me this is a classic color and looks great no matter what you're wearing. It isn't too blue, or too brown toned, which I can sometimes hate in red polishes. It's always my pick when I don't know what polish to choose.

Do you guys have a color you wear all year long?

Good Advice

Dress: Forever21 | Boots: H&M | Bag: Zara

Are you the type of person who gives amazing advice, but can't take your own? Yupp, that's me. it's hard to be in a situation in which you're so unsure, and you know what you can do to change it, but you just don't. It sucks but I'm working on it. I want to be more impulsive(within reason) and do things that make me happy. That's my goal from today on out!!

How do you guys work through tough decisions? What are your current goals?

Argan Hand Healers

Josie Maran is a widely popular brand and although I've been interested in trying the straight up argan oil, I just never had. So when I saw this set at Sephora over Christmas time for $10 I snatched it up, thinking, hey why not. This set comes with a hand lotion(or cream, so fancy) and nail polish/nail treatment wipes. I've been using these off and on since February-ish and I finally think I have my opinions set. The Whipped Argan Oil intensive Hand Cream is nice, and the vanilla apricot scent is amazing, but it isn't anything to write home about. It kept my hand moisturized in the brutal New York cold, but it took a good amount of product to do so, just as every other hand cream I've ever had has. If I could find this in the travel section of Sephora for under $10, I'd repurchase, more for the scent than anything else. I don't think it's worth more though.

Now the BearNaked Nail Wipes, I wanted to love these. And while I don't hate them, they just don't do the trick. One wipe can remove polish off of 4-5 nails. But it take so damn long. I'm an acetone girl through and through so scrubbing at my hands for 5 minutes to remove polish off of 4 nails is ridiculous to me. These are supposed to be convenient, but they're more a bother. The scent is pleasant doesn't smell like grapefruit as it suggests, but it doesn't smell like polish remover at all, so I like it for discreetly removing my polish in public. In terms of it being a nail treatment, it does make my cuticles soft, which I like. I wouldn't repurchase these,a s drugstores have on the go wipes that work way better, but these are nice to have.

What do you guys think of Josie Maran products? Is there anything that's a must buy?

Floppy Hats

Hat & Dress: Forever21 | Boots: H&M | Bag: Zara | Sunglasses: Ray-Ban 4181

I'm currently OBSESSED with floppy hats. They're so freaking stylish and great for my so-so hair days. I want to wear them for Governor's Ball but I don't know if my head will sweat to death or not. So many people wore them to Coachella and I heard it was sweltering there! Anyone go to music festivals and know if this would be okay?

Governor's Ball is in 17 DAYS! So freaking excited, especially to see a The 1975!

Essie 'Come Here!'

Essie Come Here!

I love pink/coral/red-orange nails, and I buy plenty of polishes in that family, but for some reason I almost never wear them. I always stick to blues, purples and neutrals.

Come Here!, which was part of the Resort Collection from 2013 is gorgeous and brings so much attention to my nails. It's a perfect spring and summer polish and will be beautiful with a deep tan. Excited to wear it again in a couple of months!!

Grains

Hey all! I did this OOTD and another OOTD with my first DSLR but it came out grainy. I just wasn't super impressed with the Canon T3, so I switched it for the Canon EOSM. I like DSLRs and getting to learn them. It's fun, but frustrating at the same time. As I'm writing this I am on my way to my second job. I like my job(s) but I can get so tired. For this job(skating rink) I have to wear all black, and this is just one of the ways I try and make all black as fashionable as possible.

Anyway, completely unrelated, do you guys have book recommendations? I literally like all types of books, usually more fiction than nonfiction but I enjoy those as well. I love YA books but I also love steamy romance novels and murder mysteries? Anyone care to help out? What kind of books do you guys enjoy?
