Galaxy | NOTD

Like I said in my last post, I am going to show you guys how the Butter London polish turned out! And let me just say I looooove it! Both colors (Union Jack Black and Knackered) go on your nails so incredibly smooth and the colors both match the color in the bottle perfect.

Union Jack Black is a simple jet black color with an extremely smooth consistency. It took me 2 coats to get the polish to be opaque, but that isn't to bad considering the fact that both coats were pretty thin.

Knackered is a very unique polish in the fact that it is a pale lavender green duochrome with flecks of glitter and is unlike any other polish I have run into. It is a very sheer polish, but can be layered to become opaque. Personally I am glad it is sheer because when I layered it on top of the black, it really made my nails look as though a galaxy was printed on them!

Mini Haul

This weekend my skating team had a competition up in Kalamazoo, Michigan. I had a blast with my friends and we skated really well! Like I said in my last post, my birthday was on the 21st and my friends birthday was on the 17th, so at this competition we did a little gift exchange and gave each other our birthday presents! I am going to go ahead and show you guys those right now:

Pale blue, statement necklace from Forever 21!

Cute, little charm necklace from Forever 21!

Forever 21 polish in the color, Coral!
After the competition was over, my mom and I drove over to Ann Arbor, Michigan and had a great time! We stayed at the cutest Bed & Breakfast called Burnt Toast Inn, ate dinner at a fantastic Italian restaurant, as well as went shopping! We went to a few stores and I will show you what we bought now:
I got my first Butter London polishes!! I purchased it at a shop called, Lily Grace and one of the employees, Madeline, helped me pick out these two beautiful colors in the shades Union Jack Black and Knackered. Madeline told me that if I layer the silvery one on top of the black my nails will turn out with a lovely galaxy look. I will definitely share with you guys how much I like them after I try them out!

This is a North Face jacket that I got from Moosejaw and I am in love with it! It is amazingly soft, but still very light weight.

Book Babble



Ever heard of Audrey Hepburn? I sure hope so! She is no doubt my idol and role model for fashion, beauty, and for just being such a great person. For my birthday (which was the 21st if you were wondering. I am no longer 15, but 16 years old!!! And this is my very first post as a 16 yr. old) my best friend bought me this amazing book from Anthropologie about Audrey Hepburn and that is what inspired me to tell you guys all about it AND my two other books.

Audrey:A Life In Pictures is a picture book showing the highlights of Audrey's life through beautiful photography.  The picture on the left  is one of my fav pictures of her! I'm pretty sure it was taken during the movie Sabrina.

How To Be Lovely is different than the other book because it is an actual book with chapters that focus on different tips Audrey gives. It is so inspiring!

Just Being Audrey is the book that my friend bought me and I like it so much because it has almost a fictional feel too it because it is written about her life, but as an actual story. It has amazing illustrations and really sums up Audrey's life in a nutshell!

What's in my Purse?? 2013

Today I am going to share with you guys what is in my purse! I did the same thing on my YouTube channel, so if your are interested in that then click HERE. I went into a bit more detail in the video, so make sure you check it out!

This is my purse! I know you can't actually see it, but it has a long cross-body strap which I absolutely love because it  makes it so much easier to carry around!
This is the back.
This purse actually has 11 pockets! All those pockets make it so much easier to store all of my things and to help keep it organized.
Obviously you can tell what the Burt's Bees lip balm is, but the other odd sphere shaped thing is actually a lip balm! I will admit it is not my favorite, but it tastes like vanilla:)
These are my new Polaroid ear buds that I received for Christmas and they are a necessity for my everyday life! 
This is my non-smart phone, which I believe is the new smart phone.
Altoids are some of my favorite minty candies and the adorable  owl is my iPod!
This is pretty self explanatory... YUM!
In the back, button pocket I have my Kleenex and a pair of my sunglasses!
This is my wallet and change purse! My change purse is pretty much my on-the-go wallet.
Inside my change purse I have my temps, my Love & Toast lip balm, some spare contacts and a nickel!
As you can see the inside of my wallet has adorable pink and white polka dots!
Finally we have my keys!
Hope you enjoyed! If you like the cute popsicle pattern in the background, then click HERE to find out what it actually is and how to make it!

My New Year Resolutions

Hey guys! I hope everyone had a fabulous New Year and New Years Eve, as well as a wonderful holiday season! I thought what better way to introduce the new year, than to tell you guys what I am planning to change in my life during 2013.

1. Write in my journal at least once a week. Writing in my journal is something I do periodically, but I am going to start writing more often because I love writing and I feel like I should do it more.
2. Do at least one blog post a week. I'm sure you guys like the sound of that! I tend to slack on here quite a bit, but don't worry! That will change soon:)
3. Stop snacking or at least snack on healthier foods. I am one of those people who whenever I walk through the kitchen I have to grab a snack. So hopefully that will stop this year!
4. Do all homework as soon as I get home. No procrastination!
5. Stretch everyday. For those of you who don't know, I am a figure skater and for all of my other fellow figure skaters you know that stretching and staying flexible is very important!
