What I'm loving...



 Lets start with a Essie color. NO MORE FILM. I am madly in love with this blue/purple tone. This color is from the Essie Resort 2012 collection. I just came across it at ULTA  one day and HAD TO HAVE IT!!!! I think the color is pretty true to the bottle. It looks a little darker inside the house but when you get outside the color really shines. This color is no longer available at Essie.com but you can find it a number of ways. 1. check ULTA. 2. Amazon has a some available. 3.You can also purchase through ebay.








Another thing I am complete obsessed with is a gift my sissy (brothers girlfriend) gave me! ELASTIC HAIR TIES!! These things are amazing I swear. Not only are they cute, fashionable, GLITTERY, and fun but they don't damage your hair! They don't pull out as much hair as other hair bands do. They also (drum roll please) don't leave kinks in your hair. I mean how many times have you been getting ready and are trying to hurry so put up your hair really quick to finish getting dressed and then take your hair done and AHHHHH a crease in your hair!! Such a bummer! Well I have found that these hair ties DON'T DO THAT!   My sissy purchased these band at anthropologie. They come in fun colors, patterns, and glitter as well (p.s. the glitter doesn't fall off everywhere, it stays put). The only bad thing I have to say is that when they stretch out (I have very thick hair) they don't look as pretty.


 (sorry for the fat looking hand)




A website that I in love with is Etsy. You can basically find almost anything you need shopping here.  Etsy is a website that offers online buyers and sellers a community to connect. Etsy offers handmade items as well as vintage items. The best thing of all is anyone can join!  I have purchased TONS of stuff off their website at reasonable prices. A lot of people are selling similar handmade items with a wide variety of price ranges. I used Etsy a lot when I was engaged, getting married, and moving into my house. Some of the categories you can browse include: Art, Home & Living, Jewelry, Fine Jewelry, Women, Men, Kids, Vintage, and Wedding. If you have never been on this site I highly suggest you check it out....LIKE NOW! PS. I found LOTS of the elastic hair ties on Etsy! A little tip from me to you: Search what you are looking for on Etsy. Once you find it, look in the right hand corner it will say sort by: Relevancy. Click relevancy and change it to lowest price. Then you can see out of all the shops who has the best deal! I'm a sucker for a deal!

My Save the Date: Purchased from an Etsy shop
Below this picture is the link to their shop
Michelle & Carl are the owners of The original pear. They are a wonderful husband and wife "pear" that helped me out sooooo much during my planning days as BRIDEZILLA :)! They are very prompt with emails and orders, so understanding, and  helpful. Gosh, I just cant say enough about them! If you are looking for invitations, save the dates, programs, menus, seating cards, table numbers, thank you cards, baby announcements, or anything custom, they are who you want to work with! You can contact them directly from their Etsy page.


Last thing that I'm loving is Seche Vite. Seche Vite is a long lasting, fast drying, chip resistant top coat. Since I like trying out new products I recently moved to a OPI top coat and thought I was in love but then I repurchased Seche Vite...BEST PURCHASE EVER! This stuff is top notch! Nothing compares to the shine and hold this top coat gives you. Almost every salon I have gotten a manicure/pedicure at uses this as their top coat. Mark my words, I will never use another top coat starting today!
