FOTN and OOTN

So it was my mom's birthday the other day and we went out to eat at a nice restaurant so I attempted to dress as nicely as possible with what I had in my closet. I also as you can see put an effort in doing my makeup to seem more sophisticated! 

False lash effect mascara review: MAC vs. Maybelline

As a total mascara addict, it's no surprise I hoard the occasional three, four or five mascaras at a time. At the moment, I have been testing one formula from MAC called False Lashes and another from Maybelline called Volum' Express the Falsies.

Oscar-worthy nails

Hello! It's that wonderful time of the year again - Oscar night! Hollywood glamour comes out in full force one night each year to celebrate films. That being said, it's no surprise the fashion is always fierce.  For the past few years, I have taken to dressing up a bit, curling my hair and popping on some bold lippy to bring some of that red carpet style to my living room. This year, I thought I would take an extra step and bring some style to my nails. After studying the trends of this season's previous awards shows (Golden Globes, Grammys, etc.) and drooling over Rachel Zoe's fitting room Instagram pics, metallics and sparkle are obviously key players for tonight's award show. Keeping that in mind, I selected two polishes to translate the look onto my nails.
