Nerdy Nails

 So today I thought I would share some of my favorite nerdy nail designs that I found on the web. I don't know who's hands these belong too. But I love them None the less. I went out of my way to try each one of these designs on a finger.
    Let me tell you before you invest thinking that these are super simple easy to do nail arts. Its not. To get one hand done it took me 3 hours. It was a long journey and most of them turned out TERRIBLE because I am bad at nail art.
   The easiest by a long shot to do was the Pokeball nails. Its what I

Chose to go with for my whole hand, though I dare not try it with my left hand. It was hard enough with my right! People that can do both hands easily are very impressive people and deserve the highest praise.
   The hardest for me to do and it came out a total mess was the pokemon faces and miss Packman. If you don't have practice with nail art, I suggest you back away slowly and do not try to tame the beast that is nail art unless you want to look like you were attacked by a box of rainbow markers. And I sure hope you have nail polish remover.
   My second favorite to do would be the PlayStation nail art because I love Playstation and every game I have ever bought from them. Plus it is super simple to do and you will get all the complements on them fine nails of yours.

   Music lovers feel left out? Fear not my little friends.  There is a cute nail design out there for you. But boy is it hard to get the lines right. I erased my nails and started over 4 times trying to get the Orange one done. (Look for the picture) straight lines are hard to do when you have shaky hands.
   I suggest investing in 3 things:
1) Nail Polish remover
2) Tooth Picks
3) Tiny Paint Brushes
   Now you may be asking, "But Alyssa, Why  tiny paint brushes if we have tooth picks?" And I will tell you why. Because Tooth picks don't hold a lot of polish! The most your going to get of of it is a tiny boop of

Paint. Which would be good for the little dots at the bottom of the music notes. But what about yoshi's eggs? That requires a bigger boop. But maybe your regular nail brush is too big and would put too much polish. I like to use a tiny paint brush for these moments.

Now a lot of these nail arts are super adorable. But let me know which one is your favorite in the comments below!
I hope to see you in my next post!

Lace Flats + Rosegal.com Worth the Money?

So I got these super adorable flats online at Rosegal.com For $24.22 and I must say I love the way they look. I love the hard sole so they arn't going to wear down super fast if I wear them a lot

Now what I do not like at all is that these are a size 8 US. but at the same time. There is too much going on inside the shoe. so its more like a 7 US. and I wear 8's so It was super dissapointing. I can't wear them and I have to go out of my way to figure out how to strech them out so that I can. That is most certinly not what I want out of a shoe. so if you have bigger feet like me I suggest buying a size larger so you don't have this problem. But also sadly size 8 is the largest US size they have for women shoes. Its a big dissapointment and I don't think I will be buying shoes from them again any time soon. If they fix the size problem then I think I might but I really wish they would correct the size chart.

I bought some other cloths from rosegal.com and only one thing fit me. I bought large and extra large. Checked the comments and reviews and the size chart plus size converter. They should have fit. What they don't tell you is that its a large in KIDS. I was so dissapointed. I have a 10 year old sister who would barely fit anything I bought. These cloths are supposed to be for adults! I'm not an overly tall or bulky woman. a large/ x-large should be able to fit a 5'8" Woman. But they don't. You have to be a size 0 to fit in there largest half the time. The other half a size xx-large to fit in a medium correctly. Overall the store was just dissapointing. At best they get a 3/10.

On the bright side. My little sister now has 2 super cute dresses shes going to get for her birthday.

If you have shoes that don't fit follow this guide to get your desired size: http://www.shoemetro.com/t-how-to-stretch-your-shoes.aspx
I'm, working on my shoes right now.

I hope to see you in my next post. Tell me about your dissapointing online shopping stories. Or let me know about some online store that you really love so I can check it out!

Maybelline New York Lip Stick in Peachy Scene (525)

So This is my favorite lipsitck. I am biased though, First off this is the first lipstick I ever bought because for a long time I didn't put color on my lips, just chapstick or lipgloss.
Secondly this lipstick was picked out by my love because he thought the color fitted me. I tried it on after I bought it and I loved it so much! I wear it under basicly every gloss I own. Don't want to look over the top? Or maybe don't know what to use today? this lipstick is just perfect base and I love the color SO much.
This lipstick sells for about $5.50 at drugstores and is highly pigmented. So the color you get is going to be exactly what comes out onto your lips. So be careful trying new colors with this brand because it might be too strong when you try it.
I love this lipstick so much and i give it a 10/10 and usually Maybelline is not my go too for products but I was very plesently suprised with this lipstick.

Tell me if you love/hate this lipstick! Tell me if you picked a different color and send me your lovely reviews/pictures!
I hope to see you in my next post!

Love Hollow Out Candy High Waist Sweet Shorts

Lets talk about something else for a moment. Look at these shots. These shorts are amazing and adorable and I must have a pair. This is going to be my next buy when I get cloths for sure.  I love the purple pastel ones the most. I love that they are high waisted. I LOVE the cut out heart on the side. What I don't love is that they are only Japanese sizes which is quite a bit smaller then me. But I am a bigger lady trying to loose weight. But I promise the moment I loose enough weight these are my go to buy.

Just look at how adorable these are!!

CoverGirl Classic Color Blush in Iced Plum (510)

This is the blush I use on date night. It has a hint of sexy to it. It's playful and sexy and coy. Makes you sly like a fox. This is my favorite blush for when you want to go out on the town with a bit of a darker color then day time. Lightly dust it on pale skin to make your skin glow. Or put a little more for darker skin tones. I feel like this color will give you a girly/cute tint for darker skined girls. Or a hit of mature in paler skinned girls. I'm not exctly sure about the first because I am not dark skinned but I feel like Iced Plum is a beautiful hue all around.

It goes for about $5-6 at most drug stores. Personally I do not like the little brush that comes with it, its rough and does not really cover the cheek bone correctly so I just throw that out.

I would pair this with a rose red lipstick for pale skin. Maybe a plum colored lipstick for darker skin with a simple winged eyeliner to top it all off. Sometimes I would add say, some fake lashes for a touch of sexy. Or if you want a redder tone during the day, I would use this Blush sparingly and dust Rose Glow over it for a brighter red for a more harsh look. Not harsh like I don't know how to do my makeup harsh but a skater look harsh.

Tell me your favorite date night blush color! I hope to see you in my next post!

Maybelline New York Lip Gloss (No Idea Which one)

So I found this lip gloss at walmart, I bought it on a whim. AND I LOVE IT. I wish wish wish I knew what type it was. What color number is it. I love this lip gloss to death and all I know is that it is labled Maybelline New York. \(T-T)/ I think I bought it for about $5 and I can't seem to find it online.

This color (Peachy/Apricot) goes great with the blush I posted just a moment ago.  (Rose Glow 020) I usually wear it on top of a calm peach colored lip stick, but its also great just by itself. Most of the makeup I have at the moment is for spring, So Of course it goes great for spring/summer! I would pair this, Rose Glow, and A light pink eyeshadow for the perfext spring time glow.

If anyone has any idea what type of lip gloss this is please let me know in the comments below! I would like the name of the type of lip gloss. If no one knows, no worries! I'll head back out soon and find out just exactly what this beauty of a lip gloss is. I'll let you guys know the type and color that I bought so you guys can try it out yourself!
I hope to see you in my next post! (which will deffinitly be the date night blush this time xD)

Revlon Blush Palate in Rose Glow (020)

Rose Glow Palate

So this is my favorite blush to use. Hands down I use it everyday and I need to buy my second palate soon. Its a little shimmery and has a light color that gives your cheeks a warm glow that makes your face come to life. Its a great color for spring and summer. It goes great with pastel colors and floral prints. Want a warm summer look and your darker blushes just are not doing it? BAM beautiful rosey cheeks with a light shimmer when the sun hits your face just right. It is a little pricey to get but blushes are something you use a little of so it goes a long way. I bought mine for $10 which is pricey for me because the most I spend 10 dollars on is eyeliner because cheep eyeliner is just a total no-no.
Tell me your favorite shade of blush! My next post will be on the shade I use for date night ;) This one is great for every day, but want something a little bit more spicey for date night? my next color should be good on basicly every skin tone.
I hope to see you in my next post! Sorry this one was so short!
