At Least Someone Is.

I really love DIYs. Looking at them, attempting them, etc. Sadly, I'm not very good at them, nor am I creative enough to come up with great DIY ideas.
Still, I like to look at other peoples, and muse about giving it a shot. So, I was really happy when I found out about PS I Made This on Fashionista.

The blogger not only attempts some really fabulous DIY projects, but also includes her inspiration for each project.

Now I just have to decide which of her projects would be achievable for me.

What is the best website you've found recently?

Keep On Talking.

I'm in kind of a meh mood today, but I do have a few things to mention.

First off, Christmas! My countdown is officially on. Today I helped decorate the tree (can't say I was all that helpful), wore Christmas PJs and socks, and watched Arthur's Perfect Christmas. What are you hoping for for Christmas? What are you most excited to give someone? I'm hoping to get the MAC 182 brush and a House of Harlow 1960 necklace. I asked for other things, but those are two highlights. I also want lots and lots of OPI nail polish. As far as giving goes, I'm excited to give my brother his presents, and my mom hers.

The next topic isn't really necessary or what I'd normally post, but oh well. I guess this is a 'me' blog rather than just a fashion blog. Anyway, I thought maybe if I posted it here I might actually follow through. So, I'm devoting myself to losing some weight. I do this all the time, and I'm always just as determined as the last time. But maybe it'll actually work?

I had another thing to talk about as well, but I can't think of it for the life of me. So, I'll just let you know how much I love the ring in the picture and rings in general. I wear long sleeves a lot, which makes bracelets a little harder to rock, but I'm all about rocking a great ring.

Oh, I remembered it!

I'm hoping to get started on that youtube channel thing I mentioned a while back. I figured it is worth a shot. Maybe it'll be fun. I'll keep you posted, I'm planning to start testing the waters over Christmas break. (I have a half day off on the 23rd and then break really begins on Christmas eve.)

And lastly, I'd like you guys to know that I fully intend to get back into blogging. Hopefully it will be soon! Thinking of good post ideas just hasn't been happening, and I get bored of just showing you all my nail polish. How do you get yourself out of a fashion blogging rut?

Snowy Day.

I'm ready for a snow day.

A week and a half until Christmas break!

Can you believe how fast Christmas sneaked up on us? I just have the final touches left as far as Christmas shopping goes. How about you?

Boats And Birds.

College night is tonight which means PSAT scores, and lots of information. (On college visits, college searches, financial aid, etc.) I'm going to be really tired tonight.

Weekend Hallelujah.

Like I said, I got internet on my phone and I've been playing around, emailing myself photos. So, here are a few I thought I'd share.


This is a little peek at my Thanksgiving outfit. Just a glimpse of my jeans, cardigan, and tank top.


This is my eye. This is also (probably) from Thanksgiving.


Here is my dog. He's sleeping on my bed with my British literature textbook.


This is a bit of my desk while I was writing that essay last Sunday. There is everything I need. Coke, chapstick, a pencil, highlighters, and papers.


I took this while I waiting for my on the road driving instructor to show up. Just my shoes, and a tiny bit of outfit.


I'm growing my nails out, in case you noticed. The polish is We'll Always Have Paris. It is so pretty.


This is just a stupid filler post, but I thought it would be better than nothing.

I'm doing some Christmas shopping tomorrow. I just have two people left to buy for! That is all I've got planned for my weekend so far. Hope everyone is doing well.

Long Time.

I've thought about blogging a few times since my last post, but it just hasn't happened. I guess I haven't been inspired or driven enough to post lately.

Today isn't much different, but it's the last day of break, and I wanted to get another post in.

It isn't going to be the most fun day because I have an essay to write. (Way to go procrastination!) If I'm really lucky I'll be able to fit in an eyebrow waxing before school starts up again tomorrow.

I've been pretty busy the past few days with Thanksgiving stuff, and birthday parties and dinners. The best part of my break has been my trip to Ulta (total heaven), where I got a great deal on OPI polishes. They're regularly $8.50 a piece, and I paid less that $13 for three polishes. I got Suzi Skis In The Pyrenees (just polished my nails with this), We'll Always Have Paris, and You Don't Know Jacques.

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving, or just an excellent week if you live outside of the US.

Can't Help Myself.

I posted about making a few MAC purchases the other weekend, and since then I've made a few other MAC purchases. It's just hard too resist!

My aunt works at Nordstrom, and they were having a 40% off cosmetics sale for the employees, so I had her pick up a few things for me while my dad was visiting her (she lives kind of far away). I got the 195 concealer brush, the soft lipglass/lustreglass set from the holiday collection, and a mineral skin finish natural. The 40% made a huge difference in some of the prices, but I'm going to pay them back for the brush and MSF now, and have the lip set as one of Christmas gifts.

Then, today I was doing a little shopping and I had to make a few more purchases. I bought a lipstick in Lovelorn, and a new bottle of brush cleanser. The brush cleanser was actually a surprisingly good deal. The 6.75 oz bottle from Sephora was $14 and the MAC 6.9 oz bottle was only $11.

I guess this means I won't be making too many more purchases for a while! If I keep it up I won't have any money to spend on people's Christmas presents.

PS, Kris Allen's CD was released this week. I suggest listening to Lifetime.
