Tuesday Tunes

I've decided to post my favorite songs on Tuesday instead of Monday! Hope you don't mind (and by "you," I really mean me because I'm the only one who reads this!) Just kidding. Not really. Haha...
Anyway, here are some songs that have been on repeat this week.

Truly, Madly, Deeply by One Direction
I would love this song even if it wasn't by One Direction, and that is not something I can say about their other songs. But the fact that they sing it makes it about ∞ times better. It's one of the cutest love songs I've ever heard! If someone sang this to me, I would pass out. 


If I Lose Myself by OneRepublic
This song is mesmerizing. The end.

Zoya: FeiFei, Luna, & Aurora

In the beginning of January, Zoya was having a promo for three free nail polishes. Yes, three bottles of nail polish for FREE. All you had to do was pay $10 for shipping. Considering one bottle retails for $8, I thought this was a very good deal. So being the nail polish lover that I am, I just had to take advantage of this. I have seen Zoya at Ulta before but have never tried it, so I was unaware of the "healthy" formula. Zoya has a 5-free formula, meaning it is formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, camphor, and dibutyl phthalate free.These are toxins that are typically in nail polish. I'm not sure how dangerous these are, but there must be a reason almost all companies are removing them from their formulas. Zoya is also vegan friendly and is formulated specifically for natural nails. 

So here are the three colors that I chose:
FeiFei has silver, gold, and pink shimmer with a blue base. 
Luna is not a pure silver glitter polish, which is what I wanted, but it's still pretty nonetheless. It is better described as a gray with silver glitter.
Aurora is a purple with holographic glitter. It's my favorite of the three. :)Each polish needed two coats.
Here they are with flash: 
Can't wait to try these on my nails! :)

Do you have any nail polish recommendations?

Music Monday

So I've decided to start Music Monday. These are a few songs that I've been loving lately.

Heart of Blue by Shannon Saunders
This was the first song I heard by Shannon, and I love it! She writes her own songs, which I think is swell! My favorite part of the song is this line in the chorus: All I can do is miss you / See your face on a photograph but I can't kiss you. The song and music video are addicting. 


When the Right One Comes Along by Clare Bowen & Sam Palladio 
This song is from the show Nashville on ABC. Clare Bowen and Sam Palladio's characters, Scarlett and Gunnar, are my favorite, and I think they have the best songs on the show. This is my favorite of their duets. Oh, and I like the lyrics too ;)


And that is all for the first Music Monday! Hope you like these songs as much as I do!

And so it begins...

So this is my first blog ever.
I'm not sure why I decided to start this blog. I guess I felt the sudden need to share some things with the world. Let me be the first to say, I have no idea what I'm doing. I'm not sure what I'll be blogging about yet either, so this should be fun. Just thought I would try something new, I suppose.
