Nude Heart Nails
I really love nude colors. You usually see a gray/purple color, but honestly I was at Target looking for something to buy, and I didn’t have these colors – isn’t that a good enough reason to try something? Nude heart nails it was. :) To make the heart, I used the tip of a tooth…

Double Glam Nails
I do my nails pretty often, and every time I go to take off a color, I think never again. No more glitter. Yet, the next time I go to the store and buy a color, there’s inevitably some little glitter pot calling my name. There’s no stopping there, either. Before I start painting my nails,…

DIY Spray Painted Bronze Headband
Our last 14 for the 14th is a super easy DIY project! This bronze headband was made with some left over spray paint and an inexpensive headband I fell in love with at Claire’s. It’s just, once I put it on, it blended in with my hair too much! So I decided it needed a…

Red & Gold Heart Nails
Nails, nails, nails! Would you believe I actually haven’t done mine in like — a whole week?? I know, what! These fabulous heart nails were probably my favorite of the 14 for the 14th series, just because they are super easy. And also I love bright red nails. This probably has something to do with my mother never…

3 Minute All-Day Hair Twist
I’m not sure why I enjoy doing hair tutorials so much. I have to be honest, I don’t actually bother to do my hair that often. I think it might just be my purple walls. Taking photos in front of them is fun! They sure are cute, huh? In fact, this is a different wall than…

Black & Pink Pre-prepped Nails: DIY Adhesive Nail Design
It’s no secret that I love to paint my nails. I had to stop posting them on instagram, because my friends just don’t care that much. So no wonder I think Valentine’s day is a great excuse to do them some more! This was even easier, because I made some simple DIY adhesive nail designs while I…

Keeping it casual Valentine’s Day outfit
Here’s another fashion post, with a more casual Valentine’s Day outfit. Combine a fun red shirt with some winter-white corduroys and pull back the top half of your hair, teasing it just a little. Give yourself a break and look I-didn’t-try-all-that-hard-but-I-am-still-messily-adorable next Friday. I’m wearing white corduroys from Gap and a 70% off red ruffle shirt from Banana…

Getting Fancy with Beaded Caviar Nails
To create this beaded caviar nails effect for our 14 for the 14th, you can buy the original from Sephora, get a small kit from another nail brand, or be frugal like me, and just head to your local craft store and buy some micro-beads – it may not cost you any less, but you’re…

Wearing Red Lipstick …and Rocking it
Being perpetually mistaken for a 17 year old (and then feeling like that was generous of the person) has me searching for ways to look more mature. I’ve learned that wearing any lipstick can significantly help me, but wearing RED lipstick is just so much fun. So, of course, my 14 for the 14th has to include a…

Red blazer for a Valentine’s Day professional outfit
In keeping with our 14 for the 14th theme, here’s an idea for a Valentine’s Day professional outfit: take a classic jean with white sweater combo and put a bright red blazer on top! Combine it with red lipstick and you’ve got yourself a festive, yet classy, ensemble! I’m wearing a dark wash pair of…

Mermaid Glitter Nails
I have this weird obsession with mermaids right now. No, that’s not true. More of ‘this reminds me of mermaids’ and ‘that reminds me of mermaids’. True story, in London I went to the M&M store and bought a bag of custom colors, then proceeded to ask my friends “what do these remind you of?”…
