Red Hot!

I don't know if you guys can see it but Kate has her nails painted this beautiful deep red. I love her dress. Its Burberry Prorsum. I posted about it earlier, here. A little bit of a sidenote but has anyone heard those rumors that Kate got a boob job? That's crazy. I hate how the media always picks on women and their bodies.

Magazines sometimes takes a picture of a girl smiling and then compares it to a picture of the same girl not smiling and they say she got a nose job because her nose looks slimmer. Well, of course her nose is going to be bigger when you're smiling. Thats what happens! Duh. Oh, geez

Okay. Mini rant over. Back to Kate's nails rather than her...other stuff. :)

I really like the idea of a bright red for summer/spring. Here's jsut a small list of my favorite red colors for summer. Red reminds me of the beach...and sunburns. Hahaha.

Off With Her Red
Out of all the colors I picked. Off With Her Red is the truest red. Its a red-red. Believe me. If you want a bold, bright color then pick this color. I think if you have a really, really light skintone or a really dark skintone this color would look so good on. It would pop so well.

Conquistadorable Color
This nailpolish color isn't a crayon red, its more like berry red. But its a really, really pretty deep berry color. Its one of my favorite polishes ever! :) And the name is so cute, right? Conquistadorable...that's adorable! Very punny, I know. :) But it would be a really cute, deep color for summer. Its more of a mature color.

Manicurist of Seville
This is the most sophisticated color of all of these. Its also the darkest. I would say. Its like Conquistadorable Color but its darker and less pink. It has more red undertones. This is also a berry color. Like I said its really sophisticated and mature and I think that I would normally wear this color in the winter but I love the idea of wearing winter colors in the summer. My clothes in summer are normally really bright and so a more mute nail helps balance everything.

Tropical Punch
Talk about a fun color. This is almost neon, but not quite. But it is definately a super bright color but summer is the brightest time of the year, so why not celebrate with fun colors. I will admit that when I first saw this color in the bottle I didn't know if I would like it or not but once I saw it on my nails I changes my mind. I wouldn't wear this color in the winter but its a great summer color.

An Affair in Red Square
This is my favorite red color of all time. I love the name. Maybe its because it rhymes? Hahaha. :) Its a dark red color but I really, really like it. Sorry if you don't like dark colors because it seems like most of the  colors I'm picking are these dark, deep reds. But I'm looking at Kate's nails and I really, really like that color. Its so pretty. An Affair in Red Square is also sooo pretty. In love!

All the colors above are OPI. :) I love that brand. But my parents hate it because they don't think I should spend so much money on nailpolishes. What's you're favorite brand of nailpolish? Please help me make my parents happy with low prices. :)

Enough About Eve

Blair (a.k.a. Leighton Meester) looks stunning in this look. This is a shot from the episode, Enough About Eve. Its the one where Blair really wants to deliver the freshmen toast and NYU. It was a good one. I haven't seen the most recent episodes lately though.

The yellow and the green color seem like they're going to clash but when they're put together they actually go quite nicely. This reminds me how the other day I had to explain to my dad that their was a difference between matching and going together. He still does quite understand. :)

Back to the topic at hand. Is that not the cutest lunchbox you've ever seen? Sigh. Its amazing. I was looking at the Paige Gmable website and she has a ton of other super cute lunchboxes. All of them equally adorable. :) Okay, here's how you can get Blair's look.




I cannot put into words how much I adore this dress. :) Its just so cute. The color is stunning and the zipper detailing gives it an edge. I like it when clothing items just have random zipper details on them. It can make a super feminine garmet a bit tougher, you know? Maybe its just me. :) So chic.

Did anyone see the newest epsiode of Glee? That show is so funny. Does anyone remember the Single Ladies dance? Hilarious! I laughed so hard. :) Stomach is grumbling I think its time to eat. Got to go.

Winter to Spring

See:Moulin Rouge
Ewan McGregor. Singing? Swoon!! :) I lovethis movie. Its bitter sweet and filled with music. The Elephant Love Medley and Come What May play on my ipod all the time. Its fun because this musical is filled with songs that the audience already knows. Its actually one of the few Nicole Kidman movies that I like. I like Nicole Kidman but lately she hasn't been putting out good movies. Did anyone seeAustralia? Yeah, if you haven't, then don't. But back to Moulin Rouge. I cried. And cried. And cried. This movie is so good. Believe me. So sweet. "I'll love you until the end of time!"


Read:People Style Watch Magazine
I love People magazine. And the style version is just as good! This magazine is more practical than Haper's Bazaar or Vogue. Its filled with deals and saving oppourtunities. Its less fantasy and more reality but that doesn't make it any less fun. It isn't filled with articles about anything other than fashion. Its fashion through and through. :)


Watch:The Vampire Diaries
I LOVE Vampire Diaries. Its intense, kind of scary, and filled with romance. What more does a series need? Three adorably cute guys. Swoon. I guess I'm swooning a lot as I write this post. Hahaha. :) But I really, really do enjoy watching this show. Its one of th few that I actually watch the night that it comes on rather than watching it online or OnDemand. I didn't think the book was as good as the series. Just my opinion. :)


Wear:Nars Orgasm
OMG. I've heard people talk about this blush before but I didn't understand what all the fuss was about. Then my mom bought me this for either my birthday or Christmas, I can't remember. Hmm...but anyway, it looks sooo good on. I love the way that it gives me this adorable flush. So pretty. I highly recomend this product. It looks amazing on.

A Single Cloud in the Sky

Today is the day I'm going to see The Last Song. We get a delayed start tomorrow. Sooo excited. To celebrate I'm writing about this right before I go. I've heard only good things about this movie so I'm hoping that its really good! Here's Miley Cyrus and her All Saints Damisi Boots. :) Enjoy.

Taking a Walk in Hollywood. Wearing All Saints Damisi Boots,
Balenciaga Bal 0067s Aviator Sunglasses, Simone Camille Shoulder Bag,
Twelfth St. by Cynthia Vincent Tweed Boho Cardigan, and
Simple Black Jeans.


Out in Toluca Lake. Wearing Roberto Cavalli Tiresia Sunglasses, Anlo Willa Jeans,
Balenciaga Giant Pompon Bag, All Saints Damisi Boots, and KAiN Label 3 Strap Tank.


At a Recording Studio in in Hollywood. Wearing All Saints Damisi Boots, Miley Cyrus
 and Max Azria Denim Shorts, Simone Camille Shoulder Bag, Plain White Tank, and
Beige Colored Cardigan.


Out in Dublin. Wearing All Saints Damisi Boots, Giorgio Armani Calf Chevron-Print
Tote, All Saints Dream Tee, Black Leggings, Knee Socks, and a Black Puffer Jacket.

Went to my friend's softball game last week. It was really funny because I now know that I know little to nothing about softball. My friend was trying to explain it all to me but turns out he doesn't know that much about softball either. Hahaha. He tried to tell me that you got walk to first base if you just didn't hit the ball. Like if you just stood there. (That's wrong by the way).

It sounded wrong to me because my logic was telling me, if you just didn't have to hit any balls to make it to first base than why would you hit the ball? Just stand there, right? Turns out you get to walk to first base if you get four balls (pitches that are outside the batting zone). Yeah, I had someone else explain it to me. :)

I'm not a big sports person. Well, other than tennis. I love that. Going to practice super hard that way I can come back and be even better. nd win.

Do you want to see The Last Song? I'm a little worried that Miley might not be a good actress. Idk. I hope I'm wrong. :) I'm super excited. I'll tell you guys how it was when I get back. Comment!

The Apple Doesn't Fall Far...

Gwyneth Paltrow.  Yes, she's the woman from  Shakespeare in Love, Shallow Hal, and Iron Man. And surprisingly I liked all of these movies but for all different reasons. Shakespeare in Love made me cry. Shallow Hal made me laugh. And Iron Man had me on the edge of my seat. (I went to go see Iron Man for my birthday last year.)

She's so pretty and its also a bonus that I love her husband's music. Hello? Coldplay is freakin' awesome! I heart Viva La Vida, Yellow, Shiver, Clocks, and just so many more songs I couldn't begin to list them all. :) But back to Gwyn. :)

She's super talented and I genuinely like her movies. Now that Iron Man 2 and her other movie entitled, Love Don't Let Me Down, are coming out (so excited for Iron Man) she's on the cover of Harper's Bazaar for their March 2010 issue.

Anyway, here are pics from her photoshoot. They're amazing. And just click here if you want to read the entire interview with Gwyn.


I adore her Armani-Prive Swarovski-encrusted white gown. Its the one in the last picture from the top. Its just stunning in my opinion. :) I wish I had that dress. I have to admit that I'm a little jealous.

I haven't done one of these magazine photoshoot posts in a while and what better way to get back into the swing of things than with Gwyneth Paltrow? :) There were three or four other pictures that I really liked and I might just save those pictures for another blog post in the future.

I don't like to put a million pics on my blog becuase people tend to just scan over them without really seeing them, you know.

Have you ever seen a Gwyneth Paltrow movie? If so which, if any, were your favorites? Please Comment and then Follow. TTYL! :)

You're the Lucky One!

Okay, my contest has come to an end. For me, its a little bitter sweet because, well, this was my first contest and of course I can never have another first contest again. :)

I know most of you are like, get on with it already! :) Okay. Drumroll please? Drrrrrmmmmm. The winner is.....Fun in Sun. Yay! Just email me with your information and where you would like me to send your prize.
__
Anway, I didn't want this to just be a blogpost annoucing the winner but I also wanted to share with you A Month of Outfits. It was an article/feature in the Lucky issue with Jessica Szhor on the cover.  You know the one from Gossip Girl?

This article was all about a month of outfits only using 39 articles of clothing. That includes shoes, jewelry, and jackets. Everything, well besides underwear, that you would need to wear. And I must admit that I've seen features like this before but a lot of times I sit there wondering, "Would anyone actually wear that? Because I know that I would not leave the hosue looking like that."

I'm very particular about what I wear. :) Anyway, I was surprised, pleasantly, when I saw that almost every outfit that Lucky Magazine put together I kind of loved. It's so nice to be pleasantly surprised rather than the other way around. :)

I think I'm going to re-organize/re-decoarte my room. Its painted this ugly, seafoam blue-green color. Hmmm...I think its time for a change. My room is a complete mess. No joke. Just wondering, but, are you messy or super organized?

Leave a Comment below! Bye. :)

It's Getting A Little Old

Guess what? This is officially my 101st post. Pretty cool, huh? I know. I'm super excited. I was looking at all my blog posts yesterday and I realized that when I posted yesterday that was my 100th post. 50 of them are from 2009 and 50 are from 2010.

Kind of cool how that all worked out. But I don't really have anything to talk about. I went shopping today and I might do a haul later. It's not really that exciting. Just workout clothes. :) Went to Target, Sport's Authority, and Burger King. And we picked up Cuties from Costco.

In my second to last post I talked about having a college crisis and for people who've gone/picked out colleges, I'm just wondering how you guys made that deciscion. I've thoguht about going to UW or the Univeristy of Auburn but a small part of me sometimes feel like I'm going there because my parents want me to go there, you know?

Anyways, any advice you can give will be appreciated. :)

Contest ended yesterday. Yay! It only took forever. :) Thanks for your patience. I'll declare the winner tomorrow in my blog. I'm about to find out who won right now.

I'm just kind of blabbering on now so I'm going to go watch TV or something. :) Sorry if this blog post completely bored you. I just don't have anything to write about. I'm just chilling in a pair of shorts and a regular old tee with nothing to do.

Next weekend will be exciting. Tennis team sleepover! :D Yay. Okay, bye guys. Talk to you later.
