Mani Monday


So, it's been awhile since I've had a professional manicure, and since I needed my eyebrows waxed badly, I stopped by a local nail salon to have get it all done.  You guys already know, I'm a fan of gel nails, so course I chose a red glittery CND Shellac gel polish for my polish.  Unfortunately, I didn't get the name of the gel polish, but I love the shade of red with the glitter in it :)

The Nail Files: Ruby Doo



For today's manicure I used my Sally Hansen Salon Pro Gel Kit again, because I know my gel polish will stay on through the rest of this week, and so far I've been pretty pleased with my nail kit.  So, for this week's manicure I decided to use the color Ruby Doo, I love the color, and look of my nails :)

My First Filofax


For those of you who follow me on Instagram know that I'm a big fan of Filofax, so much so that I now own three and a Kate Spade planner.  Why the Filofax?  Well, I just couldn't seem to stay organized, and in the past I've purchased so many planners I'm embarrassed.  After, a couple of weeks or so I just didn't want to write in them.  However, thanks to Instagram I stumbled on several photos showcasing decorated Filofax pages.

While on Instagram, I got a chance to see where they shop for stickers, journal cards, sticky notes, washi tape, and pens.  So, I started did a little research about the Filofax.  While researching, I learned people from all over the world use them, their not to pricey, you have so much fun decorating your pages, and you get a chance to meet people from all over the world:) So, I bought my first two Filofaxes, and I haven't regretted it :)

Here're photos of my Filofaxes & Planners:

The Nail Files: Wine Not


I'm still in love with my Sally Hansen's Salon Pro Gel Kit, and I'm so in love I've also gone out to buy more gel polishes too :)  Now, on my nails my gel polish last a week, however since I've been doing my own nails lately I've decided to take my gel polish off on the weekends.  So, for my manicure today, I chose to use a new gel polish I purchased recently called Wine Not.

Look What I Got: Sleeveless Peplums


A couple of weeks ago my husband and I got a chance to go into Express in our local mall to look around the store.  While there, I spotted a sleeveless peplum on the clearance rack for $14.99, of course the more I looked, the more styles I saw as well.  Also, on top of the sale price there was an additional 30% off as well.  SCORE!  So, I scooped up 6 tops, because of the great price :)  Now, I can't wait to begin styling them with my sweaters & blazers.

The Nail Files: Back to the Fuchsia


I'm still in love with my Sally Hansen Pro Gel Kit I purchased last week at Target, and for the most part my gel polish stayed on my nails throughout last week :)  So, I thought I'd go ahead and switch to another gel color for this week.  The polish I chose is called Back to the Fuchsia, and once again I love how my nails turned out :)
