Moments - One Direction






Hey guys! Its me, Summer.

I have for you.... a cupcake mani! Haha okay, okay its really just a glitter sandwhich... but it looks like cupcake frosting... or maybe I'm crazy.

I saw something with this color combo on a blog.... months ago.. and I loved it.. so.. I recreated! (If this was your mani first.. msg me and ill link u)

The thing I love about glitter sandwhiches is that its so understated.. yet fun. Who doesn't love a chunky, multi colored glitter? Normally if you were to wear a nude polish, with a chunky glitter, it would harshly contrast and look a little mis matched.. but when you layer another coat of the sheer polish over top of the glitter.. it mutes the harshness. Love it!

What do y'all think? Btw fashion week is so soon! Yesss!

Boston - Augustana

"I think I need a sunrise. I'm tired of the sunset."

Hey everyone! I'm adoring my new palette. I had a bit of time yesterday to try out some new colors before I had to leave the house. I snapped some quick pictures and I'm here to show you how it turned out!

The other night I saw a gorgeous sunset with unique colors. It was the inspiration behind this look. (So cliche, I know. It really was beautiful, though.)

Dragon - Tori Amos

Hey guys! Summer, here. 

We recently were contacted about working with a company to post about the year of the dragon, which is part of the chinese astrological calendar. I didn't really know much about it so I decided to check it out and see what it was all about and turns out...it's my sign!

I started reading up about it and found out that it's going to be a good year for me! It determined (by the year I was born) that I am an earth dragon and because this is the year of the black water dragon - I will be receiving some money this year! Haha! I'm not going to question it...just embrace it!

Anyway, Alexis and I decided to do a joint post because the colors were really beautiful. 

We received a few samples to complete the manicure. We used Pure Ice nail polish with a Pure Ice crackle over top. You can purchase these polishes at your local Wal-Mart or Walgreens for around $2.00. You can not beat that. SERIOUSLY. Go get some. 

*I saw on their Facebook page that they have a few other sets, much like this one. Including one with a sapphire polish!! (Our birthstone. Yes, both of ours!) Also a set with a TO-DIE-FOR glitter and black patent leather-esque crackle. 

Are you convinced that you need this in your life yet? Good.


 The set I received even included the cutest little nail file. Love.

A Team - Ed Sheeran



Hey guys! I really cannot believe it is almost Feb. Does that even seem real? I feel like 2 days ago it was thanksgiving. Anyway... I'm really excited for the things that are coming up next month. Its our one year blog anniversary, so its gonna be a special month. I'm taking the whole month to refocus my life and purge un needed things/people. I think I just need change. Which probably stems from the fact that I'm finally over my breakup. Does anyone else do that? I feel like I have to rid myself of any negative energy! Haha Which reminds me; I completely redid my bathroom. Its ADORBS, y'all. Its super girly and shabby chic, since my old bathroom was so dark, I went with alllllll light colors. Love it. Welllll, today was mani Monday in the PAA group, and the theme was crackle. I alternated black and silver base colors and then did opposite alternating shatter polishes on top. I like it, and evidently so did a lot of other people. I got a lot of compliments. Yayyy haha Anyway... keep an eye out for the awesome posts next month! And like us on facebook for even more info! xox - Summer

Ours - Taylor Swift

Hello, loves!

Yesterday I went to the hair salon. I was really feeling my outfit, so I decided to try out some new eyeshadow to compliment it. I really like how it turned out. I am loving my new MAC pigment that I got for Christmas. It is flawless.

Find Me - Boyce Avenue




Hey guys! Since Alexis did a post on what she got for christmas, I figured I would too! I got a lot of random Essie polishes, the OPI glitters from the muppets collection, lots of Orlys.. including most of the birds of a feather collection, and I got NAKED and VEGAN palettes for christmas! I love urban decay! My friend jessica got me the vegan palette. I'm in lovvveeee! I got tons of polish and make up, but I decided I would just show you my favorites. What did y'all get?? xoxo - Summer

Brand New Day - Joshua Radin

Hey there! 

Last weekend, for new year's eve, I went to Knoxville and met up with Summer! Reunited at last :)
We had a really fun time that night and it was great getting ready together and hanging out. Summer was so sweet and gave me a nail polish gift set! So, I thought I would take some quick pictures. (I'm still in love with my camera and I'm basically taking pictures of every thing in my kit. Haha.)
