Metallic Nails Trio & General Valentine’s Day Romanticism
These are my favorite nails as of late. There’s really nothing original to it, but I love the mix of metallics, especially the 3 golds: White Gold, Rose Gold, & Yellow Gold. I just alternated the colors so no two of the same would sit next to the other. The Rose Gold is my go-to …
Hair Tutorial: Soft Romantic Beach Waves w/ Tapered Ceramic Iron
A few weeks ago my trusty 1″ Hot Tools curling iron finally called it quits. I think I bought it in or around 2003, so almost ten years of soft waving and amazing curls makes for a good buy, in my opinion. It remains my favorite, I must admit. But while searching for a replacement …
