PHD-Polish Hording Disorder...

This weekend at the mall, browsing for new nail polish colors at Sephora, my husband asked me if I didn't have enough nail polish already :-D NOOOOO I don't! What a freak....tzz, can't believe he would ask me such a question. That is like asking if I have enough shoes or clothes. I guess Men will never understand :)
Long story short, here are the newest additions to my nail polish collections :)

Revlon Blue Mosaic
 3 coats

OPI-Iris I was thinner
 2 coats (this is my new favorite) so pretty!

Recently, I ordered a dress off ebay. I thought it was cute and a great dress for new years. It was only 8 Dollars with shipping, so I thought, hmm why not!
I gotta admit, it is a little short. But I'm thinking with black tights should be doable. What do you think?



Well Ladies, off to bed I go. Tomorrow is friday!! Finally!

Glitter and Sequin

yes, who doesn't love glitter and sequin? During my lunch I sometimes venture out of the office just to get some fresh air or bargains LOL. Geez I am close to the Supermall, Ikea, TJ Maxx, Target...
Last week I went to Target for some polish and I've seen the cutest sequin bag. I didn't buy it, for whatever reason. Well Sunday I thought I just go to the Target near my house, turns out that purse sold out in that color :( I went on the Target website and there was only one store that carried that purse in that particular color: The target by my office. Limited quantities, that's what it said. So during lunch today I drove to Target and they had one left!!!!!!!! :D I snagged it as fast as I could. Gold sequin satchel for $24.99?? Hells yeah. Monday can't start any better :) Check out this beauty. Not bad for that price, No?
 lovely passenger :)

Furthermore I bought some nail polish. I was looking for the Revlon ones FOREVER. They're sold out everywhere. From left to right:
OPI Crown me already
Revlon Blue Mosaic
Revlon Facet of Fuchsia 
 Of course I had to try the OPI Crown me already ASAP. I was dying to get my hands on it. sooo pretty and glittery. It's not like any other glitter top coat. This is really dense. This is 3 coats of OPI Crown me already and on my ringfinger 2 coats of Revlon Facet of Fuchsia.
 So pretty, I can't stop looking at my nails :)
Time for bed. Well not really. It's only 9 pm in Seattle, but since I get up at 5:30 every morning, 9pm is not too bad :-D 
Nite Nite,

Christmas Centerpiece DIY

I love my Pinterest App :) Do you? I'm on there ALL the time and I finally MADE something from Pinterest :) I made these beautiful Christmas Centerpieces. And it was super easy!!


What you need:
Empty bottles, spray paint, adhesive spray, epsom salt

Here are the instructions:
1) Drink vine and save the bottles :) This works with Lemonade bottles as well ;)
2) Wash the bottles and remove the labels. The best way to remove the labels is to soak the bottles in warm water. Let the bottles dry completely.
4) Cover your workspace with newspaper and spray paint the bottles. It's best to start with a thin coat of paint, let dry and then do a second coat. Let the bottles dry.
5) Spray with adhesive spray.
6) Roll the bottles in epsom salt. I just put some salt on newspaper and rolled the bottles. And voila you're done. You can use whatever you want to decorate them. The possibilities are endless.
What do you think? I think they're awesome :)

Have you decorated your tree yet? We did ours on Friday. Purple, Turquoise and Silver. It took me almost 2 hours. Turns out I bought ALOT of ornaments :D
Tadaaa:
Happy Sunday everyone!

Has it been a year yet????

Wow, I cannot believe it has been almost 1 year since my last post. There are two reasons why I decided to restart blogging: 1. I got a new Laptop =D bought a Mac Book Pro on Black Friday and 2. I am still getting comments from lots of lovely ladies here asking me to come back. So here I go :)
Anyway, this first post will be a little BLAH. I have no clue how to edit pictures on the Mac book LOL What's a good program I can use on here?? Any suggestions?
I have made some GREAT purchases lately. Here is a little something something :)
My new favorite dress that I bought at H&M about 2 weeks ago or so. 18 Dollars!!!! Can you believe it? Gotta love H&M :)

The last 2 pictures where taken in Puerto Rico last weekend :)

One shoulder dress bought yesterday at Love Coulture. Cute :)




My new Steve Madden purse I got on Black Friday at Nordstrom in Downtown Seattle. Oh and my lovely Diego who thinks he is a person LOL

I have a new obsession with nail polish :) My nail polish box is overflowing :-D But there are sooo many pretty colors out. And how cool is the crackle nail polish? That stuff is amazing. Here are some of my nails:


OPI Black Shatter over Wet and Wild Silvivor

Wet and Wild Hannah Pinktana over OPI What's a tire jack

Wet and Wild Teal or no Teal with Top Coat Essie Matte over you

Avon Matte nail polish in Black (color is great but lasts only a day, if at all :( )

OPI What's a tire Jack. Ringfinger: Wet and Wild Party of Five Glitter

That's it for now. Promise I will be on here more often!
Happy 1. Advent :)

Hello =)

First, Happy new year to all my fellow bloggers :)
I know, it's been forever and I have not been very loyal to my blog :(  i have been suuuper busy! I have not used a computer in a looong time. I do everything of my ipod lately, just because it's more convenient. Wish they had an app for blogger! They don't, right?!?! :D
Anyway, thought I'd share some pics of the stuff I've been buying lately.
Here it goes :)
Starting off with my favorite, awesome, super, hot new pants I bought at H&M on Black Friday. Can you believe I got these for $10.00?? OMG, I LOOOVE them :D What do you think?

This top is by Max Azra, they had a 75% off sale on all items =D

Cute sweater dress I bought at H&M during their sale, $12.00. I didn't like it on the hanger, but I think it looks good on me
the bow is awesome :)


Max Azra dress with studded shoulders

bought this dress at F21 for my company's christmas party. We went to an upscale 4 Star restaurant in Bellevue (where Bill Gates lives :D)

couple of cardigans I bought at one of my favorite stores H&M.



this shirt was marked down from 50 to 10!! WOW :)

love it!!




That's it for now :) I will cuddle up on the couch with my Diego and watch a movie, try to enjoy my weekend. My husband won't be back for another couple weeks :( He's in Georgia.
Hope you had a great start into the New Year!
Thanks for reading!!
