Christian Siriano for Payless

If at any point in your life you feel the need to buy these for me, PLEASE DO!

They are part of the christian siriano line for payless and are only 59.99... Super affordable, which is my fave part of his payless line and probably why his line is the top selling collab line for the store.

A few weeks ago I attended a trunk show of siriano's and had the chance to spea

k with his partner Brad Walsh, he explained to me the process that Siriano uses to make his printed fabric. Evidently he takes a portion of a photograph, blows it up beyond recognition, and changes the color and finally has his print... Interesting huh? Any

way, now every time I see a piece of his clothing or in this case, shoes, I try to guess what the photo was before being distorted..... I have no clue on this one but if I had to guess I would say.....some sort of building... What's your guess?



********UPDATE: i was going through some of my pictures taken at the trunk show and realized that i had found the exact print from these shoes - only in a dress.

This piece (below) was actually a picture, taken by Brad Walsh, of a tulip (if im not mistaken) and used to create this print.

Remember December - Demi Lovato



AHHHH!!!! sooo its been a busy weekend. first it was HANSON day, then i had to find birthday gifts for people and host a group of 14 year olds (easier said then done), and THEN it was mothers day. my poor nails definitely suffered from the lonnnnng weekend.

I had forgotten to take a picture when the mani was fresh but this is a few days afterward.. i really like the red nails with zebra accent nail - simple and cute.

like it or leave it???

p.s - how hot is Demi in this video? this is for sure my favorite video - i mean the gloves she wears in the opening scene - I Dee. Eye. EE. DIED.

What The Hell - Avril Lavigne



ITS CINCO DE MAYO!!!!!!!!!!! wooohoooo!

i wanted to redo my nails for today because well.... just because. My friend Spen'sar - another nail polish addict - let me use her nail polish for this one. but all i kept thinking was "what the hell am i gonna do to my nails?" sooo thats where the song came from LOL!

i just started with a white base and used my dotting tool to create the dots - i started with black and did them in straight dotted lines and finished with several different colors that i dotted randomly around.

i dont have the exact name of the polish that i used since it wasnt mine... but i know all of it except one was china glaze :)

like it or leave it?

She Aint You - Chris Brown


So for Easter my madre gave me an acrylic nail kit - with everything i would need to start practicing on how to do those... i know, my mom is awesome right? right.

Anyways, i used an opal tip and then used white acrylic powder - because i like to paint my nails and i figured if i did this i wouldnt have to use a base coat.

this is the result of my 2nd attempt.. i must say.. i did waaay better than expected. a few of my friends who go to have theirs professionally done said that they looked great for a 2nd attempt and want me to do their fill ins! hahaha



what do you all think? would you let me near your nails with acrylic?! hahah :) In this picture the nail color that i am wearing is Essie - Cute As A Button

ANNNDDDD this is after i added dots, the purple is Nina Pro - punky purple and the gold is Gold Grill
