sunday blues


for some reason at around 10 PM on sunday nights i just get really sad...must be the fact that i have to get up really early after two days of sleeping in...or just my new yorker anxiety that after 30 years im still not accustomed to...HOWEVER...being the big theater geek that i am...i always seem to get show tunes of some sort stuck in my head when im feeling down...tonight...was Free To Be You & Me's "its alright to cry"...heres the video...its from the 70s...very old school...very awesome...

april showers....



So if most people are like me...theyre sick of this awful grey weather...yeah yeah...april showers...i know the drill...but lately all i want to do is put my feet in the sand...have my two best friends on either side of me...and a vodka lemonade in all of our hands (just 3...no double fistin)...and just sit on the beach...this song (even though its about rain) just gives you one of those feelings that if you closed your eyes you can feel the sun beating down on you...

nails...nails...nails

so some of my friends would refer to me as being kind of a snob when it comes to certain things...especially my nails...im not one of those long island girls who does the lee press on airbrush shit..i like to keep them short and polished...kind of like on "the hills" (has anyone ever noticed their nails always looked so perfect?)...anyway...ive gotten great at doing my own nails (pedicures i wont do)...but anyway...essie always has the best collections for each season...especially some of the not so traditional colors look great...these are two of my faves for the spring:




Tart-Deco...i was never much of a coral fan...but this color is HAWT...first of all it immediately makes my skin look a little tanner (which is always nice)...it gives outfits a great pop when you're wearing those grays, blacks, and browns...and goes great with any color...its another choice that you never have to worry wether it matches your outfit...it does




Sew Psyched...THIS IS MY FAVE!!!!!!!!! even though this green doesn't necessarily look like it would go with a lot of outfit choices, it comes out sort of a neutral almost dark beige-ish color...every time my nails (hands or feet) are this color I get asked daily what color it is...

forest of feelings


every time i look at etsy I find myself intrigued by all the hand made jewelry...even found myself searching the FIT website to see if they have some sort of jewelry making class...anyway...my latest kick that i've been on is anything with squirrels...acorns...or owls...its probably weird...but i think its cute...and im kinda digging it right now...here are some of the stores that have me checking in every day...this stuff also makes me think of the carebears when they find their cousins in the forest of feelings...such a great movie...

...the brass squirrel necklace will definitely be around my neck just in time for spring...

...the rose bud studs remind me of being little...

i also just realized this blog is a great way for me to hint to people what i want for my birthday...and all other days that anyone would like to suprise me with presents
