Press-ons have improved since the 90s.
Press-on nails: the final frontier These are the voyages of our star-studded cuticles. To continue our mission to adore our manicured hands. To seek out new styles and crystal gel. To boldly vogue like no gal has vogued before. Brownie points for anyone who got that reference and still thinks I’m cool. Evidently I’ve been living under a god damned rock because I had zero clue about press-on nails. I have no idea how this happened. I was watching Rupaul’s Drag Race last night and it dawned on me that drag queens have been clued in for ages. THEIR NAILS CHANGE FOR EVERY OUTFIT. I’ve been living a lie. My…
The Ultimate Stocking Stuffer Guide for Ladies
I scoured my favorite retailers for some of the cutest stocking stuffer appropriate shit this season and let me tell you something, this turned into a seriously selfish endeavor. When I initially set out to make this guide, I wanted to do a really diverse set of options for him, her, kids, grandma, etc. What ended up happening was I found a ton of shit for myself and couldn’t focus on the other. So, I said “fuck it” and decided that this year I would just focus on stocking stuffers for “her”. I mean, I think I relatively know what a lot of women like and I definitely know what…
10 Makeup Staples
Two weekends ago I got to spend a fabulous weekend with my girlfriends in Salem. (You can read about it here.) We had the absolute best time! It was really nice to be amongst my crew of supportive and confident boss ladies. It was also really nice to get words of encouragement from them. Good friends work as a great mirror because they always remind you of your good qualities, which I really needed. One of the things my friends mentioned multiple times was how “on point” my makeup has been lately. They gave me so much love in the makeup department, and I just laughed it off. Give it…
Treat Yourself to a Bath
I’ve never honed the skill to just relax. I mean, I go on vacation or do things that technically count as relaxing, but my relationship with relaxation is…complicated. As of late, I’ve developed a new struggle with finding time for myself. I’ve been battling some mental health issues and as a result have been very tired and less productive. As a result, I feel even less inclined to take time for myself. I don’t feel accomplished enough to be deserving of “me time”. What I’m working on is remembering that we’re not 100% all the time and punishing ourselves for working through something is counterintuitive, as is neglecting self-love because…
Cozy Fall Outfit
Yesss it’s one of my favorite headbands! To be honest, it’s a total knockoff of a Jennifer Behr headband, of which I’m not even close to being able to afford, so this is a great alternative for me. It’s beautiful and under $10. It’s currently out of stock, but will be back in stock on October 31st. You can still buy now though! These earrings are also sold out, but I expect there will be a restock as I bought them pretty recently. Tab this if you like them and check back. I want to give a special mention to my makeup products this time as I love how my…
