What Nail Polish Am I Wearing?

-

 


I am wearing Chanel Le Vernis 599: Provocation!

I mostly keep my nails pretty simple, just one color on my natural nails and I let it chip away until there's more bare nail than color. I also usually cut them all the way down to tiny nubs because i can't stand the feeling of long nails anymore. My teen self would be so disappointed to know this because in high school I'd grow them out to be about twice as long as my nail beds and into a stiletto shape! Yes, I've always had very strong, fast-growing nails. It used to be a blessing when I loved to keep them long, but now I get annoyed having to trim them so often.

Instead of my usual round shape, I tried to do more of a rounded square here. I think they look nice, but I'm not sure if I will stick to this shape since even having just the corners of my nails a bit longer than usual is starting to irritate me.

A Grey Day in NYC

I wanted to do a quick post about what I wore the other day when I went to New York to see a taping of Late Night With Seth Meyers. These were the only shots I was able to get of my outfit before I had to run for my bus. In this photo here I look about as moody as the weather was that day. I know most people would be upset about a cloudy 50F day in late April, but as someone who hates heat, I appreciated it. Jacket: Arizona Jean Co. Skirt:  Alexa Chung for AG Jeans Top: Jones New York Shoes: Clarks Bag: 3.1 Phillip Lim I knew this would be one of my last opportunities to wear my army green jacket before it gets too hot to wear any jacket at all, and the big pockets were perfect since the bag I chose for the day couldn't hold everything I needed. This 3.1 Phillip Lim Pashli mini satchel is now my favorite crossbody bag. Maybe one of my favorite bags in general, it's so cute!! Even though it had been a while since I wore my Alexa Chung for AG Jeans denim skirt, it's still o...

OOTD: First Day of Spring in Philly

  As the title suggests, this OOTD is from about a month ago. When it comes to the warmer half of the year, I am the opposite of most people. It makes me miserable. I always dread the day the clocks jump forward an hour. It affects my mood so negatively, exactly how others might feel during a cold, dark winter. I prefer that cold, dark winter so much more than warm sunny days. When spring comes around, I mourn the coziness I felt since the early sunsets began that past September. As an attempt to make myself feel better about the end of my favorite half of the year, I decided to put on a cute outfit and take the bus into Philadelphia for the day.  I wanted to make sure I wore something simple but still stylish and cool. Ripped Alexa Chung for AG skinny jeans, striped long sleeve, and a black blazer. No matter what I wear, this Alexander Wang Rocco bag will make sure that I look stylish and cool. It's definitely my go-to bag, you can just never go wrong with a leather stud...

Self portraits that I had taken late one night about 6 months ago and have been living on my memory card ever since. Shot on my Canon Powershot on the floor behind my dining table, for no reason more than I just wanted to show some appreciation for this Wildfox star print Lennon sweater.
