Cheap Online Shopping ... 10dollarmall.com


Here is a peek at the free outfit I received from 10dollarmall.com
This is not the first time I have shopped at 10dollarmall, however it is the first time they have provided me with free goodies! I have never had a problem with their clothing & this time is no different. 

I received:
- a loose fit Harvard t shirt
- acid wash/distressed shorts         
- gladiator heeled sandals

All together, with shipping this entire outfit would have cost... $29.99! Seriously guys, that's a bargain.

 



I am obsessed with these shoes. I have worn them almost every day since I got them. They go with almost everything. So, if you have some change jingling around in your pockets then head over to 10dollarmall.com for some really cute inexpensive clothing items.

#ManicureMonday

I did my own nails for the first in like... months! I usually can't do super cute things to my own nails because they end up getting ruined when I give other people manis. I am totally obsessed with the design I created. It was inspired by some nautical nails I found on pinterest, but I just made them my own and changed them up drastically!

I completely love these. They are trendy for right now because of the double accent nails, glitter polish, and negative space. I also used my favorite polish of the moment! 

Hope you love them as much as I do! 






Have a wonderful week!

Totally Trendy Tribal

One of the best parts about the spring and summer months is the tribal everything ; tribal clothing, tribal jewelry, and definitely tribal nails. Sometimes I feel that the whole tribal trend can be a bit overbearing when not executed properly... there is such a thing as too much tribal print guys! So if you're on the hunt for some tribal nails, without over-doing it, then this post is most definitely for you! There's a hint of tribal, but not too much. So enjoy!

You Will Need:



















Step 1: 
Using your colored polish, paint all of your nails except for you ring fingers with two coats. Paint your ring fingers with the gold polish. Let them dry completely.


Step 2:
Using the dotting tool and black nail polish paint 2 "V"s onto your middle nails. 



Step 3:
Using your dotting tool and your black polish, paint small lines extending out from the top "V". Connect the lines to the "V" going downward. 


Step 4:
Carefully fill in the small triangles. This is the hardest step because it is easy to go outside of the lines if you don't work slowly... so Be Careful!



Step 5:
Once your nails have dried completely, top them off with a thick layer of your favorite top coat. This will seal in the design for longer and make the nails look shinier.



*Top off the look with a super cute Midi-Ring like the one Ellee is wearing. I promise it totally completes the look! 


There you go! A 5-step-totally-trendy-spring-ready manicure. The great thing about this mani is that it looks a lot more difficult than it actually is, so people will be impressed when you tell them you actually did it yourself. 
Don't be afraid to add your own twist to this manicure! It's so simple, there is definitely room to spice it up with some of your own flare!

Spring Daze

When I think of spring I think of baby animals, flowers, sunshine, and pastel colors. Spring is my favorite season because everything seems to become new and bright. Winter is on its way out and summer is just around the bend. While basking in the beautiful sun and appreciating all of the flowers in the yard this morning, I had a sudden  urge to give myself a mani as equally beautiful as a warm spring morning. So that's what I did; 30 minutes later I ended up with a pastel-colored-spring-flower manicure that I absolutely love!

You Will Need:

Tip: You can really use anything with a pointy tip in place of the dotting tool/toothpick.
(Bobby pin, pencil, needle etc.)












Step 1:
With the NUDE polish, coat the middle and ring fingers completely and let dry.


Step 2:
Coat the thumb, pinky, and pointer fingers with the PASTEL polish you chose. Allow to dry completely then give them a second coat.


Step 3:
On the nude nails create, at most, 2 small circles per nail.


Step 4:
Paint 4-6 small petals around each circle and fill in the empty spaces surrounding the flowers with a few half ovals. 

optional: You can fill in the empty spaces between the flowers with a few small dots. It makes the nail looks more like lace. 


Step 5:
Using the clear polish of your choosing, dot it into the center of the flowers and centered just above your cuticles on the pastel nails.


Step 6:
Firmly press the nail gems into the dots of clear polish.


Step 7:
Apply a fairly thick top coat. 
I recommend Sally Hansen's Strengthening Top Coat because it dries quickly, doesn't chip, and makes your nails look super super shiny!



Allow your nails enough time to dry. If you are in a hurry try holding your nails under ice water for up to 3 minutes to speed up the drying process. 


I love you Spring!
