Happy Saturday

Hello fellow bloggers!
What a gorgeous sunny day in Seattle. About time if you ask me. I did a lot of running around today. I had to get a new military ID this morning and boy I'm super proud of my photo LOL I look really good on my ID hahahaha =D Great success. Can't wait to show my hubby. After that, I cleaned my car, went grocery shopping, took Diego on a looong walk, cleaned a little, cooked and watched the voice. Phew.
Gotta keep myself busy since my husband is gone. I have no problem during the week since I work full time, but weekends are a whole new story :) Also I have not been feeling great since about 3 weeks I think, when I think it gets better I wake up with an extremely sore throat. WTF.
Enough talk. I bought shoes today!!!!!!!!!! Yay! They were on sale at payless. They are Christian Siriano (I also got a 10% military discount, who knew they did that??)

turquoise & blue


I can't wait for it to be warmer.

I also finally gave in and bought the Urban Decay Naked 2 :) Sephora had sent me a 15% off anything, plus I still had some left on my giftcard. I ended up paying $30.00




                             

Yay for  haircut! About time. August was the last time I cut it! Letting it grow. I like it

I bought a Papasan Chair. I love it, it's really comfy. D loves it too :)

I did this mani last week.

My Julep March Maven Box

Hello Ladies,

I received my Julep Maven Box for March! I stayed with the Boho Glam, I really liked this month colors.
The box came with:

  • Julep "Alicia" a very pretty coral/salmon
  • Julep "Portia"glittery turquoise
  • Moroccan Argan Oil
  • nail file
I love the way they package their boxes :-)



Portia & Alicia


2 Coats of Alicia



There is still time for you to get your box for ONE CENT. Just click on the link below and when you check out, enter Code COLOR2012

How many polishes do you ladies own? I organized mine today, and I have around 60. I recently, threw away some oldies. This collection is not too bad. I was afraid, I had too many. BUT I am not a hoarder :-D

How do you organize your lacquers?? This is how I do it. They are neatly organized and stored in my night stand :-) 


It's already Wednesday! Of course this week is going by fast...The day my husband has to leave is coming closer and closer :-( I am extremely scared and I am super thankful that my little brother will come stay with me for 3 months. Otherwise I'd lose it!
I HATE war :-(

She painted her nails again...

...I did it again. Today I had no idea how to paint my nails! I was hoping my moms package from Germany  would be waiting for me when I get home (she sent some polish ;-D) but no...so I used some oldies ;-) Why not??
 WnW-Silvivor
Essie- Matte over you
WnW- Party of five glitters

I've made a deal with myself not to buy new nail polish for at least 1 week or 2 :-D EXCEPT my Julep nail mail. We will see how long I will last.
Have you heard of Julep yet? JULEP is a nail subscription. Their colors and quality are amazing. I painted my nails and I think it lasted about 5 days (until I wanted a new color) could have gone longer. I have explained HERE how exactly it works. This months color are really pretty. I am still sticking with the BOHO Maven Box.
This months was really hard to pick, because ALL their boxes are really pretty.
BTW, you can get your first box for a penny if you use Code: COLOR2012
Can't wait for my Julep to ship!!
Buenas noches!
Carla♥

PS. On a side note: What is up with these Doomsday Preppers shows?? Am I the only person who believes that the world is NOT going to end? My husband is watching this right now...LOL. People are just crazy....maybe it's just me. Oh well

Haul sweet haul

Finally made it to the mall. I was expecting a bit more I guess, but better than nothing ;)

  Shirt at H&M 10 Dollars


 awesome dress at F21 (which is not one of my favorites stores)

 But check out the price? They had this dress in all kinds of colors. But black was the nicest.

I am a sucker for lace dresses :)

 it photographs pink, but it is really sort of peachy

My sephora haul. I had a 50 Dollar gift hard from my husbands abuelos. Still got  couple dollars left.

and I also painted my nails yesterday.
ELF- Mango Madness

these polishes came in a cute little set, I got them last summer. I can never find E.L.F polishes in any stores, but I found this set with 4 summery colors at the Grocery outlet for 3 Dollars! Score :)

Have any of your heard of Julep? It's sort of like the shoe-dazzle for nail polish freaks! I just placed my first order, after I did the Style test. I will be receiving the BOHO Box. To find out how it works click here -> Julep
I used a coupon that I've found online. I ended up paying $1.90 for a 19.99 box :) (Code: COLOR2012)
I will do a review as soon as I receive my first Julep box :) Excited.
How was your weekend??
