NY Giants!

With football season winding down the games are becoming more serious with today's victors heading for the Super Bowl! So in spirit of this I decided to go a little craZzZyY (which for those of you who know me is nothing new) with New York giants themed nails :) let's hope it helps big blue get the W. xo

Drugstore Beauty Products Around/Under $10!!

Ok so I compiled a list of some of my favorite beauty products that are inexpensive and can be purchased at...wait for it..the DRUGSTORE!

*St. Ives Naturally Indulgent Body Lotion
*Neutrogena Healthy Skin Liquid Foundation
*Almay Eyeliner
*Maybelline Collosal Volum' Express Mascara
*Revlon Just Bitten Lip Stain
*Dove Shampoo & Conditioner
*Ponds Moisturizer
*Ponds Original All Day Clean Wet Cleansing Towlettes
*Clean and Clear Soothing Eye Makeup Remover
*Crest 3D White Advanced Vivid White Toothpaste

I use all of these products and honestly I find them to be just as good ( if not better ) than some of the more expensive name brand products that I've tried throughout the years.  Lets face it, times are tough (especially for us broke college students) and its important to cut costs where you can. But who are we kidding, walking past the MAC counter and Sephora without drooling is no easy task.  So once in a while, go ahead and treat yourself to a little something special, you deserve it! Hope the list helps you guys out, I'm sure your local CVS will love you, don't forget to use your bonus cards it adds up!! XO

Winter Trend Alert! Infinity Scarves

With the frosty weather upon us it’s time to make the difficult decision of how to bundle up while still looking cute. Well fear not my fashionable friends! Infinity scarves are this years must have winter accessory that helps you look adorable instead of like the abominable snowman. Countless celebs, such as Jessica Alba, have been caught rocking this trend as well. I actually made this green one myself (SO EASY!) but if you don’t have a crocheting talent there are still plenty of ways to score this look! You can find these scarves at pretty much every store, I did see a bunch at target and also forever 21! So if you’re looking for a way to look hot when the weather is cold, investing in an infinity scarf is the way to go ;) xo

Glitter Polish- Sugar Plum Fairies Gone Wild

Now that the holidays are behind us and the decorations are coming down, the walls look bare and all of the holly jolly spirit that donned our everyday life is fading away.  Today I thought to myself 'If only there was a way to keep that spirit alive all year round'.  Unfortunately my idea to create a Christmas holiday once a month was a bust, so I decided on the next best thing, sparkle nail polish.  I've never been a huge sparkle fan to be honest but lately there has been a TON of hype around this trend so I figured I'd give it a try.  I decided on Sugar Plum Fairies Gone Wild by SEPHORA by OPI.  The polish itself is clear but it is filled win tons of purple sparkles.  I used different colors underneath it on each nail to give you guys an idea of the various ways to rock this twinkling trend. (On my thumb OPI's Funkey Dunkey, my pointer OPI's A Grape Fit!, my middle finger white, ring finger black, and pinky with nothing underneath) For each nail I did two coats of the base color and one coat of the sparkles.  The sparkle polish was a bit pricy at $9.50 but worth it for the smile it will bring to your face every time you look at your fingers and still cheaper than getting a professional manicure! I hope this brings a little spark back to your holiday spirit, shimmer on my friends! xo

Michael Kors Jada Boot

So for a while now I've been searching for the perfect wedge ankle boot with no success.  Then while in Lord and Taylor I stumbled across the PERFECT boot! But of course, they were sold out of my size.  I searched high and low for these babies with no luck.  Then after the disappointment of santa not leaving them under my tree, I decided to do one last search before giving up the dream of ever owning these boots.  To my surprise I found them on piperlime.gap.com! They had my size and of course, were on sale.  I would definitely recommend checking them out, they're perfect for a fall or winter night out.  You can get to the site here and also use the code LIME to get an additional 20% off! The site also has free shipping and returns for no minimum purchase, too awesome. They were originally $198.00 but they're now marked down to $109.99 plus the 20% off so its too good of a deal to pass up!! They're the perfect little after christmas gift to give yourself, hey santa can't do it all girls ;) xo T
