2 Year Anniversary!

November 15th was my 2 year anniversary with Brandon (my boyfriend). We went to Boston and had lunch at Grasshopper (it was buffet day!) My favorite thing I ate was this battered gluten covered in sauce. I believe it is "The No Name" on the menu. Then we came back to my house and rented a movie and snuggled up to watch it. We didn't get many pics in the restaurant because the lighting wasn't great and it was very overcast outside. We did get some pictures back here though!

One of my favorite pics from our anniversary

Sorry for the lack of posts lately! I have been very sick for 3 weeks. I got some new medicine when I seen the doctor today so I hope I will feel better soon. Haven't been in the mood to blog lately. But I want you to know I love you all and appreciate your comments and following me. Please share my blog with your friends and keep commenting. I read them all! :)

DISCLAIMER: I am NOT affiliated with Amazon.com or the Kindle Wireless Reading Device in any way. I have not been paid to mention them in this post nor have I been given any freebies or compensation (ie free ebooks) I am not trying to sell it to anyone. I received it last year as a gift and love it. That is all :)

Zoya Superfan Prizes and more!

Here is a picture of my lovely prizes from Zoya.


They are the Truth and Dare Collections and a Zoya Tshirt. It is only available from contests at this point. :) I feel so lucky!

I won these by making this video for YouTube:


Let me know if you want the name of any of the colors I have on! LOL

Here is a mani I did earlier this week with a color NOT in the Truth or Dare Collections.

I used Zoya Shivon which is a pretty rosey, bronze type color that is hard to describe but very pretty! Plate numbers M13 and M36.





The Zombie Cupcakes I made for Halloween that I forgot to post!


There is strawberry jelly in them so when you bite in you get their brains! LOL <3

I am still sick so I am sorry for the lack of posts lately. I will be better! Let me know which colors you want to see on my nails! :)

Zoya Akyra Konad M39, M56

I did my nails yesterday and thought I would share!

I used No Miss Base Coat.
The base color is Akyra by Zoya. I would describe it as a deep teal (blue/green) with a slight silver/blue shimmer. This color seemed watery and thin compared to my other Zoyas. I applied one thin coat then one thicker coat.



I applied No Miss Top Coat and let it dry a while before stamping. I stamped the tips with the swirly pattern on french plate M56 with Konad Special Stamping Polish in Sky Pearl. I then stamped the triangle arrangement of flowers from plate M39 with Konad Special Stamping Polish in Silver.

I feel that the Silver is very subtle compared to other Konad polishes. I realize they are not perfect and I am not that great with lining things up and my frenches are wonky but they were a lot of fun to do! You could use many different patterns for a similar effect. Please excuse the messy edges. I forgot to clean them up before taking pictures! :( Hope you can forgive me? <3 I need lots of practice with my french tips so expect to see many more soon!

The Big Apple Blog!

I went to NYC on Tuesday with my boyfriend, Brandon and one of my very best friends, Quincy. Brandon is vegetarian (for almost 8 months now) and both Quincy and I have been vegan for years. Needless to say we checked out a lot of vegan food (or NOMS as Brandon and I affectionately call them) I thought I would share some pics from the trip. :) I hope you enjoy! There is some nail and makeup stuff in here for those interested! :)

In the car on the way there.

My Makeup was:
Eyes: Tinsel Time by Everyday Minerals and some black mascara (Ecobella) Tinsel Time was a l/e holiday shade. I wore it since this was a special day :)
Lips: E.L.F. Mineral Lipstick in Rosy Tan
Blush: Best Friends! (wore this for the name alone and I love the color on me. :)
Face: EDM foundation in Beige - Sun Kissed Fair (semi matte) and Natural Reflections in Fair.

My eyes: (Tinsel Time l/e holiday shade by EDM)


My Big Apple nails: Zoya Midori, Konad Stamping Polishes in Red and Green and plate M55 (click to enlarge)



Babycakes book I bought for my friend, Quincy. He loves that place and loves the book. It is one of the places we went.

From Left: Brandon (bf), Me and Quincy (my friend) Not too flattering of me LOL.


Store in Chinatown with my name in it!


My Lucky Cat found in Jen's Super Store (it's solar powered!)


OMG there is a COW in the subway!!!


The Phantom of the Opera is there... inside my mind!




The Phantom is LOVE!!! We didn't see the show. I watched the movie I have on Wednesday though to satisfy my craving a bit. Still haven't seen the show live. :(

The food places we went to were Babycakes, Atlas Cafe, Vegetarian Dim Sum House and Vegetarian Paradise 2. If you want reviews about these places I can post them as a separate blog.

The non-food places we visited were Chinatown, Time Square, Toys R Us, The Hello Kitty Store, The Disney Store, the Majestic Theater (only the outside) and obviously the Subway.

Oh and my shirt says "Life is Better Vegan" :)

I have many more pictures and can't possibly post them all! Hope you enjoyed this post and thanks for reading and following me!
