Hopped up outta bed, Turned My ‘GLAM’ On!!!

I know it’s been a long while coming, but it looks like Spring has finally decided to grace us with her presence! (thankfully so, don’t know how much longer I could wait!) It just seems like it’s so easy to turn on ur GLAM-A-TUDE when it’s 70 degrees and sunny, Oww! Check out the FIVE ‘practical’ things every girly needs/needs to do this spring to stay glitzy!glamy!girly! from the minute u hop up outta ya bed, to the wee hour of the a.m. when u stumble, I mean gracefully walk into your house after partying hard!!!

5. wicked {the dark dark brown almost black} midnight blue and black were perfect for the hard RUFF winter but it’s time to liven up the nail polish selection. COLOR UR NAILS PRETTY!!! Play with pinks, greens, yellows, and the ever so popular opaque white to replace darker shades of polish for ur spring mani and pedi’s!!! {of course,
OPI has me sprung, so that’s my pick, but ESSIE has some amazing colors as well!} whatever u do, don’t be caught dead rocking black nails this spring, the 3g! police will be knocking at ur door and u will be sentenced to a life in a black pit, since u refused to acknowledge the change of seasons via ur nail polish! hmph!

4. the same way ur nails need to be color-evolved, so do ur LIPS! I’m one for wearing chocolatey/brown {Mac’s Shockolate and Oh baby} glossed lips but I’m retiring those for the spring! PINK, Clear, Nude, and Peachy lips are iiin!!!
SHOP MAC for fun spring shades, their new dazzleglass looks fun! Or try Clinique for their *Kisser’s Limited edition* glosses, cuteee!

3. fresh pair of SHADES--- sunny days wouldn’t be the same without some glitzy glamy glasses!!! Whether u pick up a cheap $10 pair from a Forever 21 or some high end designer shades, just make sure they’re flyyyy {and fit YOUR face!!}
c what glasses r best 4 ur face shape!

2. sassy sandals!!! I luv shoes, especially fun HIGH heeled/platformed/wedged sandals!! show off ur pretty lil’ pedicures while wearing fabulous footwear! {even tho many of us wear open toe/peep toe shoes yr round *def me and my girlies*} SPRING is the best time to rock ‘em! I’m in love with
VICTORIA'S SECRETS SHOES! They have an abundance-diff designers brands n styles!

1. darling dresses!!! I am without a doubt a dress girl! It’s just soooo easy to throw on a dress n go!!! Beats having to put 2gthr an outfit! At any rate, weathers warm, so throw on a dress to go ANYWHERE!!!
Bebe day & night dresses Arden B.Express *Just a few of my favorite shopping stops!*

THERE R SOOOOOOOO MANY MORE HOT ITEMS TO HAVE THIS SPRING, BUT THESE ARE A FEW ESSENTIALS TO MAINTAINING UR GLAM DAILY!!!! stay 3g!

MANICURES GET A 'MINX' MAKE-OVER



MINX nails are making-over traditional manicures around the world, and you do not want to miss out!!! As a finger-nail obsessed girly~girl, my ears were wide open and ready to receive any "new news" regarding mani's! If you've seen Beyonce lately {well any of her videos, or photo shoots, or if u've just been that lucky to catch her strolling through NYC or LA!} then you've probably caught a glimpse of the "Minx" nail technique. Our favorite diva is only 1 of many celebs wearing Minx'ed nails! (Keyisha Cole, Solange, and Angela Simmons are a few others) so what is it?
  • shiny metallic looking nails!
  • very edgy, super cute, far from traditional!
  • not nail polish but even better than! won't chip or crack! no drying needing, applied w heat!

  • price=a tad bit steep! been calling salons and it looks like the average price is $50. (but rmbr dont chip, so the look will last longer!)

  • silver and gold seem to be the most popular colors, but avbl in pinks and other shades, and the designs are endless!!! (well depending on the artist/manicurist)

  • check out ---> minx nails for salons near you!!!! found a couple in silver spring and dc! (gonna make me an appointment ASAP)
