Gelish Harmony Heaven!

Couldn't help but pick up some more Gelish Harmony colors.  They have such a wide array of colors to choose from and the quality is comparable to other gel polishes in the market.  Below is a snapshot of all 10 of the colors I have to date.  The colors I recently purchased are Need a Tan, Princess Tiara, Don't be Such a Sourpuss, Amazon  Flirt, Coco Cabana Banana, Shake it Till You Samba.  In my other posts I mentioned that I had, Pink Smoothie, Tiki Tiki Laranga, June Bride and Sea Foam.

Nail Color This Week

Love, Love, Love this Gelish polish color - Neon Tiki Tiki Laranga.  It is a very summery color and even though we are in the middle of winter,  I like wearing bright colors all year round.

Cuisinart Citrus Juicer

I had to pick up a new juicer because my lovely Black and Decker Citrus Juicer that I had for almost two years suddenly stopped working.  I immediately had to find a new one because I juice daily and lucked out when I found a really nice juicer made by Cuisinart at Bed Bath and Beyond.  I love the pulp control feature on this one as it allows you to add more or less pulp to your juice.  It's very easy to use and even easier to clean up.

Home Sweet Home - DIY Update

I could not make up my mind on which pillow color I should use in my living room and I ended up purchasing 3 different sets from Pier 1.  I took them all home to get a better idea of how they fit into my living room and even though I really loved all the colors I ended up going with the Ivory.  Using a lighter color pillow will allow me to use my artwork and other accessories to add pops of color.

NYX Round Lipstick Haul

After seeing so many NYX round Lipstick reviews on youtube I decided to give them a try.  The consistency is really creamy and glides on the lips very easily.  I would not go as far as saying its wet but it is really smooth, so much so that the depending on what color you get it will go on a little streaky.  I love that this brand has so many shades to choose from.  Out of the eight that I purchased I was not a fan of only one color - Taupe - it was a little too dark for my liking but I'm going to pair it with a lighter lipgloss to brighten it up.  Overall, for the price ( I purchased the lipsticks on ebay) it's worth giving them a try especially if you're on a budget and you want more options.  I also picked up a NYX Matte Lipstick - color Natural.

NYX Cream Blushes

I recently purchased some NYX Round Lipsticks and with that purchase I also picked up some blushes.  I already owned the NYX Diva cream blush and in this recent purchase I purchased Bronze Goddess (bottom right)  and Orange.  I am a fan of cream blushes because the finish is more luminous.  NYX has a great assortment of blush colors to choose from so you are sure to find a color that will compliment your skin tone.

Home Finds! (Home Goods and Pier 1)

I needed to find some art frames for a do-it-yourself project and decided to visit one of my favorite home accessory stores  - Home Goods.  I found 3 white frames that were perfect for this project.  I also found a beautiful (cashmere soft but not real cashmere) throw for my sofa.  I got the spending bug after that nice find and so I went over to Pier 1 to see if some pillows that I had my eyes on for a while went on sale and low and behold they were 20% off!  There was so many colors to choose from but with a little bit of convincing from a fellow shopper, I went green.  The color looks great with my new artwork as well.

Do- it -Yourself ArtWork

I love to decorate my home especially now that I'm a homeowner.  I feel like I can really go all out on sprucing up my place.  In a recent issue of Architectural Digest there were some fabulous photos of jewelry from various designers that seemed to jump off the pages with the bright colored backdrop and the jewelry taking center stage.  I immediately knew that I was going to frame them.  Well, I finally picked up the frames today from one of my favorite home accessory stores  - Home Goods.  My DIY artwork ads a pop of color that I really needed in my living room.  I love how my project turned out and it was so easy to put together and at such a low cost too.
