i'm so sorry guys, i have been MIA! the past few weeks have been so stressful, i have absolutely no time. i barely have time to sleep anymore! my life has just been crazy so i had to neglect the blog but things should be dying down now! i don't even have a post for you guys, just this apology so sorry about that :/ but thanks for sticking with me guys and for 72 followers! it means so much <3 hopefully i'll get back in the swing of things very, very, very soon!

PS i've been dying to start a youtube channel ever since i've started this blog and got such amazing feedback! but does anybody have any channel name ideas? i really want something with my name in it, kinda like sarahbelle93x or meghanrosette. i think those names are adorable and i was hoping you guys out there would be more creative than me :) thanks girliesss, you all are honestly the best! <3

NOTD - Glitter Tips


i'm in love with nail art, i just have absolutely no talent to portray beautiful designs on my nails SO i decided to create this easy look that anybody can do! (hey, if i can do it anyone can!) its not super cute, but its still nice to look at :)

step 1: apply your base color, i chose OPI's russian navy. 

step 2: dab on a fine glitter nail polish to the tips. the dabbing look makes it okay to not have a straight line compared to a french (which i can't do for the life of me) which makes it easy for everyone!

step 3: add a chunky glitter on top! 

and VOILA! you're done! its nail art made as simple as you can get
