Vlog 5 & My Weekend!

I have another mini haul video for y'all! I kinda spent a little too much this weekend, but I do think it was well worth it. Let me know what y'all think!
I'm seriously loving making these vlogs! I hope y'all are enjoying them, because I'm having fun making them and coming up with ideas.
I've had a pretty busy weekend. Friday I booked it up to the closest Dillard's at the mall and fully intended on just asking a sales person about the Chanel polishes, but I actually bought Peridot. I didn't plan on that, but I didn't want to risk waiting too long. So I'm now the proud owner of Peridot and I couldn't be happier. It's my birthstone, so I'd feel weird not having it. Is that weird? It might be... oh well! Friday night I went downtown with my Mom, Grandmother, my sister and her boyfriend. The Orpheum theater in downtown Memphis plays movies on Friday nights during the summer. During the month of July they play movies that have Memphis roots, so this Friday it was The Blind Side. That's one of my *favorite* movies! So good, and really fun to see it on such a big screen and in such a cool atmosphere. So that was a lotta fun. Saturday I went to American Eagle with my Mom for new tank tops and then out to Ulta to use my coupon! Fun stuff. Today I got to see my uncle who was in town for the weekend. We had lunch, went to Urban Outfitters (of course!) and then went to YoLo for frozen yogurt! I had a pretty good weekend. :)

Tomorrow I plan on having a mini swatch fest. I have so many other polishes to show y'all! And I know y'all want to see some nail posts. What did y'all do this weekend? Any polish hauls? Let me know!

Thanks for reading and watching! :)

Urban Outfitters: Smush

I finally took off Tart Deco last night! I don't know why I waited so long to take it off, but sometimes I just don't have the patience to work with polish. But with all these new colors I've picked up recently, it was time to test them out! So the first one I've swatched is Urban Outfitters Smush. I can tell you right now this is working it's way to being my all time favorite polish!

This was TWO coats of a perfect, almost too good to be true formula! LOVE! At the first coat I was beginning to think it would be a nightmare, but after that second coat it was just pure love. This is much brighter than Essie Turquoise & Caicos. That's good for me because I think it's working a little better with my skin tone. The only other color I can come up with in my collection that this might be similar to is Color Club Blue Light. But I already like this one better because of it only needing two coats.
I am 100% head over heels for Urban Outfitters nail polish. If you have access to UO, get some polish!

Mini Giveaway!

Hey y'all! A lot of bloggers host giveaways for certain milestones, like 50 followers, 100 followers, etc. I kinda just do my own thing on here, but I really do feel like I owe my readers a little something for sticking around and reading/watching everything I post. Y'all are so sweet and I appreciate all of you! So I just wanted to do a tiny giveaway. It turned out that everything I picked up had kind of a beachy theme... so I'm just gonna go with that! I'm giving away 2 Revlon Scented polishes. The green one is Beach and the blue one is Ocean Breeze. And then two mini Essie's, Meet Me at Sunset and Smooth Sailing.

VLOG 2

Here's my second vlog!




Thanks for watching! :)

P.S. That sound you hear in the background is the lovely frog that has chosen our backyard and pond as his new residence. I know it's annoying, I fall asleep to it every night. It's great.
Also I said something about a haul video...? Huh? I meant haul post. Sorry! :)

Tiny Haul!

I don't really know if a haul post can get much smaller than this! Ha! I just recently picked up a few polishes and I wanted to show them to y'all.
First off, I bought this No Miss Nail Polish named Daytona Sand at Whole Foods in Jacksonville. I hadn't heard of this brand before, so I was curious and decided to pick one up. I got this one mostly for the name. We lived fairly close to Daytona Beach so I guess there is some nostalgia there. I like the color, though, so it's definitely not a waste! You can check out No Miss Cosmetics here. On Friday I stopped in Rite Aid just to look around. There wasn't anything on display that really grabbed my attention, which is unusual because there almost always is! But that's okay, more money I didn't spend. I went back in to the real cosmetics area and checked out the CQ, Chameleon, and Petites polishes. I always like to look at those because they're pretty cheap and have a great color selection. So these two CQ's were right next to each other. I grabbed Mint Green first because I love a good creamy, pastel green. I'm really looking forward to wearing that one. And then I couldn't pass up Corduroy. Isn't it different? I don't have another color like that.

That's my tiny haul! Is there a color y'all want to see? Let me know in the comments! Thanks for reading! :)
