Blanketed in... A Scarf

While some bloggers are posting their gorgeous pictures in the snow... there is no snow (or even a chance of snow!) in my little town in California. So instead of the ground being blanketed in snow, I am blanketed in a scarf, and the ground in my pictures are covered in greenery and cement.

I recently got this blanket scarf from one of my besties (who blogs at Outside of the Birdcage) for my birthday.  I love how it is reversible (or as I wear it-- with both sides showing) and soooo comfy. She got it at one of our Downtown boutiques Prim. In this post I will be showing you 3 different ways to wear a blanket scarf. I wore it to school, and out later tonight in the way pictured below, which many people thought was a sweater!

Burgundy and Bardot

 

Brigitte Bardot is one of my hair Goddesses that I look up to. In this outfit post is also a little hair how-to on my take of her iconic voluminous hairstyle. For today's outfit I went with a burgundy H&M sweater, black Target painted jeans, Report boots from Marshall's, and a black bag. For accessories I added my Kate Spade gold bangle, Alex&Ani bangle, and gold Jaeger-LeCoultre watch.

Heart Nail Art

Happy Thanksgiving! Here is a quick tutorial for heart nail art. All you'll need is a DIY nail dotting tool from my previous post, and 2 different colored nail polishes! I chose oxblood nail polish (Revlon- 570 VIXEN) for my base color with white hearts on my accent fingers. 

BAS(E)ically the Best Manicure

You can't paint your nails without a good base! I love painting my nails, but I love pampering my nails even more. Here is the routine I do before painting my nails. I have all the products linked to where you can purchase them, or similar products to the ones I use.

Pink Nails for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Not only is pink my favorite color, but it is also the color for Breast Cancer Awareness! This month (October) is all about bringing awareness to breast cancer, and I thought I would do a quick pink tape manicure tutorial to show my support. You can do this with any nail polish color, but I was thinking pink!! And here is the tutorial video for them!

Glitter Galore for Gradient Nails

This is the first of my nail tutorials! I love doing glitter gradients because they are super easy and fast to do! They are really great to add to old manicures when you don't have enough time to do a whole new manicure because they will cover up your tip wear/chips! Here is the video tutorial for them!
