Good Morning + Happy 21st Day of Blogmas!
Today, I am back with Angie from Indulge Your Inner Foodie for the final installment of our three-part holiday series…and we’ve saved the best for last!
GIRLS – They NAILed It! ;)
Don’t you just love when two of your favorite things fabulously collide?!
Who watches GIRLS? I’ve been a huge fan since day 1. I literally counted down to the premiere of the first season after weeks of teasers and trailers continuously diluted my television. After the first episode I instantly fell in love with everything about the show; the writing, the acting, the messages, the simplicity. I think most girls can relate to the characters in some way or another (I think I am a healthy combination of Marnie & Shoshanna lol).
Well, the brilliant Lena Dunham & HBO are bringing those fabulous chicks back on January 13th for season 2 & I am so excited. To make the premiere even better, Deborah Lippmann has recently debuted a limited edition GIRLS inspired polish line! Four colors, each of which is representative of one of the girls.
The crazy thing is that before I even saw the colors, I had a vision of what each would be, and I was nearly spot on! I wouldn’t have gone with any other shade for Marnie & Jessa, I did picture a purple for Shoshanna, however my version would have been a brighter more vibrant/neon/deep purple. Hannah is definitely a cooler-tone, I initially thought a blue, but the green works just as well!
Either way- I was pretty darn close… I think that says something about what I’m meant to do in life! Someone get me into a polish company! Deb, OPI, Essie, ZOYA, China Glaze, Gelish…I’m looking at you!! 😉
Okay, back to the collection… I can’t help but note that this line is similar to some of my other favorites…
The entire line is $45 and available for pre-order here! Shipping will begin mid-January.
Let me know if you order, and how you like the collection! I know I will 🙂
2012 Fall Favorites
Fall is one of my favorite times of year…the colors, smells, food, and fashion- to die! Not so lucky for us on the East Coast, this Fall has been aggressively interrupted by Hurricane Sandy, and most recently this friendly little Nor’easter named Athena. While my state, and town are currently buried in fresh white snow, I wanted to bring it back and remember that regardless of what we may feel…winter is not here yet!
To help get back in the mind set, I picked out some of my absolute favorite things about Fall 2012 thus far- enjoy!
Those are just a few of my favorite things this season! What are you loving about Fall this year? Let me know 🙂
Fall Shoe Shopping
I did some serious Fall shopping a couple of weeks ago, included in that spree was some shoe shopping. I went to Mandees; I hadn’t been there in a while, but they are always good for finding fabulous, and affordable shoes! Lucky for me, they were having a buy one, get one half off sale, so I decided to stock up for the season!
Let me start by sharing some depressing news…lately I’ve been having a harder time wearing heels, my feet just don’t enjoy them like they used to *MAJOR SIGH*. Not only do heels feel sexier and more fun than flats, but they give me an extra few inches to my already miniature 5′ .5″ self. While I’m not swearing them off altogether, I decided it was time to invest in some comfortable flats.
Fortunately, I found a few adorable pairs:
Obviously during a BOGO, I couldn’t ignore the heels! So I picked up a few pairs that will serve me well.
Naturally I had to peruse the accessories…
Mandees had so many great pumps, flats and boots! I need to get back ASAP and pick up a few other pairs I had been eyeing… something about taking multiple trips to the same store, and making multiple purchases makes spending money not as bad.
What are you wearing on your feet this season? Let me know where you found some great Fall shoes!
PS: For the mani lovers, here are my most recent:
I just changed my polish color this afternoon…stay tuned for that pic! 😉
