TGIF!!!!!! Yay...its Friday :-)
 
I hope you all had a good week. Mine was not bad, but there were some challenges. If you had any challenges or frustrations this week, BREATH and SMILE, we made it!!!!
 
I've learned so much since starting this blog but I still have a looooooong way to go! I'm enjoying it thus far. I've met some great people, and have seen some extraordinary talent. I'm also amazed by the support, it's so gorgeous, lol.
 
Ok, enough of me blabbing, I can talk for hours when I'm sleepy. This is something that I did a few days ago. I was inspired by my nail art brush. It's a floral pattern, some pinks, purples, greens, and a hint of gold. I used too much purple, but I still like the look of it. Especially since according to Bazaar french manicures with a little pizazz are supposed to be the it thing this fall ( you can view the article here). This is my extremely extra translation. I hope you like and if you don't feel free to let me know as well. I'd love to hear your opinions and what you'd do for a french mani with a twist :-) !!! 
 
I used Sally Hansen's Polar Bare, Essie's Da Bush, Maybelline Bold Gold, NYC Battery Park Purple, and Greenwich Village, Absolute! Pastel Pink and Pastel Purple, and Sinful Colors Easy Going.

Hey Loves!!! I hope you all had a good weekend. I've learned some really good lessons over the past few days. Most importantly, life is very short...you have to live for you and no one else! Rock out and enjoy it with love! I've been blogging now for a little more than two months. I'm so honored that you all check in with me and have enjoyed what I've been doing so far. In celebration of YOU, I want to do my second giveaway! Just in time for Halloween, I'm giving away the OPI So So Skullicious mini set with decals. I first heard about this set from the lovely  Nails Beautiqued . She did some amazing swatches of these four polishes and I just had to have them, you can check out her review here ! I ordered the set for $6.80 from Amazon, but then my sister gave me the same set yesterday as an early birthday present (October 22nd)! So, I'm sharing the love with you.

La Couleur Couture Nail Lacquer 1964 Hermes Orange

By
I ordered this polish through Hautelook last week sometime. I was interested in it because I haven't heard of this brand before, but then again, there are a lot of brands I still have yet to try! This brand is 3-free and vegan friendly. The price tag was a little pricey for me at $9.00, but it was discounted from what the price will normally be at $16, so I went for it. They had some pretty colors and I really couldn't decide which one to get. I like the way they name the colors, they are named after years. I opted for 1964. Hautelook called it 1964 Hermes Orange. It's a thick and creamy orange, the color reminds me of pumpkin pie, umm LOL. I fell in love with it surprisingly and am sure I will wear it a lot, it's a great orange for the fall. It applied very nicely, not streaky, here I used two coats.  I tried to capture the color in different light, but I'm not good at taking pics, sorry, lol. Hopefully, you can see it well. I'm not sure when and where it will...

National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

By
Hey Lovelies!!! There are many things going on throughout the year to educate and raise awareness about breast cancer. Philadelphia held a Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in May and will hold a 3-day walk on October 5th-7th. However, October is designated as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and there are some cool things going on in the blogosphere, where you can get involved and show your support. I posted last week about the  Beauty By Krystal  Cosmetics Donation Bin for Breast Cancer. She will be collecting donations up until the holidays. Check her out if you can! April, at Glitter Gloss Garbage is hosting 30 Days of Pink for the Cure challenge. Each day you can post a link of yourself wearing pink. It can be anything, makeup, clothing, or polish. You can post whenever you can, it doesn't have to be daily.  I'll be participating in this throughout the month. If you'd like to participate click on the picture below. Hope ...
