Not Done Yet

In the leftover spirit of Halloween, I created my own zombie movie.  It was originally for a vlog channel that my friends and I have to keep in touch with each other while we're away, but I thought I'd share it on here too :)

Unfortunately, the "Free Advertisement" part's audio is a tad off. Bear with me.

Lovely front photo, right? haha

-Happy Almost Veterans Day :)

I Put a Spell on You, And Now You're Mine

In the spirit of Halloween, here's the full movie of Hocus Pocus online :)

BOO!

One Nail...Different Color?

I know it has been awhile since my last post, but I've recently heard about the celeb nail trend that's made it's way around town.  For lack of a better name, it's called the "One Nail is a Different Color Than the Rest" trend.  

Clever.

I've been looking it up online and I guess it's the #1 fall nail trend.  I mean, Beyonce is rocking this fad...that's just B-rilliant.  This different way to paint your nails is pretty...unique-ish to say the least (or to say the most, depending if you're a glass half full or half empty kind of person).  If B-Town is giving this trend a try, maybe you should too. 

BUT DON'T CONFORM TO PEER PRESSURE, IT'S BAD FOR YOU.

I digress.

I personally am quite fond of the light blue with gold :)

It seems to be a popular belief that painting your ring finger a different color is somewhat like wearing jewelry, or at least accenting existing jewelry.

Some like it, some don't.  All-in-all it will probably just go down in the book with all of the other trends of yesteryear.  Remember jelly shoes? Yeesh.

It's something to try if you're into nail art, but I give props to those who go out and swim against the current.  Why not make your own nail statement!? Or go protest something? Or go skydiving??

Okay, the last one wasn't really about making a statement...it's just something I really want to do.

Have a great Thursday, errbody :)

Cardigan Weather [Menfolk Edition]

It's no secret that a classic cardigan sweater is both stylish and simplistically sexy when a woman is wearing it, but what if a guy shrugged on this wardrobe staple when getting dressed in the morning?

Would it have the same effect or just have lost meaning among the crowd...

A guy decked out in a cardigan can say so much about him within the first fleeting moments of a first impression.

Things such as:

"I'm put together without trying that hard. I enjoy the finer things in life, such as literature and long walks on the beach."

OR

"I'm not afraid to be who I am. I'm not here to impress anyone."

OR

"LOL WAT? OMG! Txt u l8r I g2g."

...or maybe something along those lines.

I'm a firm believer that you should do, wear, say, and be around the things and people who make you happiest in life. I personally think a cardigan on a guy is fresh ta death.  It's not something you always see and that's refreshing. You've only got this one life to live...so you might as well wear a cardigan :)

Photo Friday

It's Friday, Friday...Gotta Get Down On Friday.

Yay, Second rendition of "Photo Friday" :)

Here are pictures of the things that make me happiest this week.

First, I'd like to give a big shout out to my homebro, October! I am so so so happy you are finally coming to greet us tomorrow!  I've been waiting patiently, but now I'm ready to crunch some leaves.

I'm loving the Navajo print...pretty much everything...that's been in stores lately.  Who knew something so random works so well?

Awh, puppy!  This little wiener dog is so cute in his little hot dog bun. It makes me miss my little puppy at home.  

Word of advice if you ever decide to do this to your wiener dog - DO NOT eat the bun after. You're welcome.

I'm a natural redhead, but I just love this vibrant color so much.  My red isn't as vivacious as this, but to those who do have this color - I applaud your genetics.

Mmmm, Chipotle :) I had a yummy burrito bowl the other day and it just further instilled my die-hard belief in the magic of cilantro rice.

I'm a firm...FIRM believer that Disney is the most MAGICAL place on earth.  I went to Disney over the spring with my high school band/show choir and I accidentally threw away some guy's wallet in the park and when I went back to the trash can to retrieve it, it was nowhere to be found. AHHH. The wunnerful wunnerful workers of Disney not only FOUND the wallet but they also tried to keep me sane through the whole ordeal.  

When you wish upon a star...makes no difference who you are, or how badly you screw up.

Thanks, Disney!

This will mostly likely be my weekend.

I've been eating the chocolate cake in the cafeteria almost every day this week. 

Stop it, Mari.

I love me some dreamcatchers.  This, too, goes along with my Navajo spirit.

Quite a few errors in the lyrics, but we'll just ignore that.
Oh, Adele. How you speak to me...and practically everyone else in the world.  Love ya, Del Del.

Me want to do this.  It looks so fun! Who doesn't love to paint?

I've found my newest calling in life, and it is photography.  I'm just messing around with it now, but someday I'm going to be a m a z i n g.

Hooray for Friday!
:P

College Shop Guide

I have been a freshman of the collegiate variety for a solid eleven days now, so that means I'm entitled to post my very own 

College Shop Guide

Inside this guide is what I think every college freshman (typically of the female gender) should own as they start a new chapter in their lives.

• College Apparel - I put this as numero uno because every student needs to show off their spirit every now and then.  Stock up on sweatshirts and sweatpants for the winter lazy days and plenty of t-shirts to cover the rest :)

The picture is fuzzy, but this sweatshirt is representing my school :) Also, it's a Victoria's Secret Pink sweatshirt, so you can support your school in style.  It's like drinking two smoothies with one straw.

• Rain Boots - A college staple and extremely popular purchase among students for those rainy days.  These boots come in cute patterns and colors so you can walk around campus confident that you're waterproof.

These froggies love water :)

• Baseball Cap - I've been told that the only girls who wear baseball caps in college are either:

   A) In a sorority

or

B) In a relationship

          Since I am neither, I've decided to break away from tradition and buy myself one of these sporty staples anyway.  I find that it's useful in all sorts of situations and it's the epitome of "laid-back".

Get your swag on.

• Ballet Flats - Worn with pretty much anything are an easy and comfortable way to get to class or to just hang out.  

Classic.

• Cardigans - One of the greatest inventions of all mankind.  The All-Mighty Cardigan reigns supreme when it comes to a perfect compliment to any outfit - ranging from cute to comfortable to casual...all your C's are covered :)

• Going OUTfits - College is full of opportunities to, well...go out. The weekends are full of parties and new chances to make a first impression.  So dress the part, but make sure your outfit doesn't fall apart.

TGIF.

• Fall Jacket - You'll want this one on your side when the weather gets a little more of a kick to it without going into full blown Christmas mode.  

• A Smile - This is the most important thing you can take with you to college and keep through life.  College is full of new experiences, new people, and a new chapter that's unfolding.  So put your best foot forward and show off those pearly whites :)

He's ready for college! Are you?

----->  :)
