bargain alert! Kate Spade inspired bow bangle

the $7 one from groopdealz
The $80 Kate Spade one!

Annnnnnd Groopdealz does it again. I mentioned this kate spade bow bangle in a previous wishlist. But I just really couldn't justify its high price tag. I fell in love with the adorable bow and everything Kate Spade makes is to die for. I controlled myself and did not purchase it and now behold, Groopdealz made a dupe. I absolutely love groopdealz and have defitnetly purchased some of my favorite things from them. They make a lot of "inspired" jewelry from jcrew and kate spade peices. They also do a lot of just good deals on all pinterest-y things. I check thier email everyday to see what kind of things they have. Although thier shipping does take a little longer, it is so worth it because everything I have purchsed from them has been really great quality. And for seven dollars, you can't really pass it up. 
It's also availble in a necklace!

Nail-ed it!

Ahhh Sunday night, we all know how that feels.. I'm defitnetly getting the Sunday night blues. The wave of sadness and dread you get when your faced with the end of a long relaxing weekend. But I mean we shouldn't think of it like that, we should be happy and see the coming monday as an oppurtunity to have a great day! I know it can be hard but just push through and make the best of whatever you can because you can't change anything about it so make the best of it!
On the other hand.... I have a couple nail purchases to share with ya'll! Just this past week I've been obsessed with taking care of my nails and mking them strong, clean, and well kept. I defitnetly have always had super weak nails because I was a biter, and constantly got acrylic nails. So I am determined to grow them long and pretty!
I got a cuticle remover that is supposed to remove your cuticles to get that "salon" look. I also picked up a nail buffer and file. I'm pretty sure that a buffer is supposed to make your nails shiny, and the file is pretty self explanatory. I do however, want to get my hands on  crystl nail file. Then lastly I got my favorite nail polish remover ever which is 100% pure acetone. Bad for your nails.. I know, I know. But it seriously takes everything off like a dream! If you havent tried it go out and give it a shot. I'll be picking some other nail care products up as well and I'll keep ya'll updated. 
A review on the cuticle remover will be coming up soon!

Weekend Plans


Hey ladies!
Currently I am on the way home from school on a thursday. But not just any typical thursday, it's a thursday to a THREE DAY WEEKEND! I am so pumped. This little break was much needed because there's  a lot I really want to get done. So I figured I'd make a post to remind/organize everything I need to get done and maybe motivate one of you guys to just go head and get everything you need to get done as well.
1. Get ahead/ Do ny homework-Obviously, I have homework that is due on monday (an A day) and I always manage to get monday's homework done over the weekend, however I also have my homework assigned for Tuesday, which is a B day. I am really prioritizing to get both days work done so I am one day ahead. Then on Monday, I can do the homework due Wednesday and stay ahead. 
2. Clean my room- My room actually isn't tht messy but I do want to put away the few pairs of clothes I have left on the floor from this week.
3. Find/decide on a Sadies outfit- I made a whole other post about this, but I really need to get this out of the way and find a dress, shoes, and jewelry for the dance.
4. Take pictures for the blog- Pictures are the most time consuming thing for me to do because I usually have to be home doing them and then I have to upload them onto my computer. I hope I can take a couple pictures in advance  so I can have regular posts each week
5. Relax an sleep!- Literally this has been one of the most stressful, sleepless weeks ever. I am exhausted and I can feel it in my body and brain. No matter how fit your body is, if yoour brain is tired then your body is going to be tired as well.

Hopefully I can get everything I want to get done. Whenever my things to dos build up I tend to feel overwhelmed and burdened. I'm hoping to just cleanse myself of any overdue work and just get it done this weekend.

Bows and cowgirl boots


Happy Wednesday! 
From plaid button up shirts to cowboy hats, the whole "cowgirl/country" style is defitnetly not my cup of tea. However our Sadie Hawkins dance this year is western themed... yeah I know. Obviously, there is nothing I can do about it but make the best of it. I'm going to trade my pink glitter and sparkles for a casual sundress and cowgirl boots. Well I'm going to try the best I can. I know I want a tighter dress but I can't decide if I want a pink dress with white cowgirl boots or a white dress with pink cowgirl boots. Here's what I've found so far. 

BTW: in case you didn't know Sadie Hawkins is a dance where the girls ask the guys instead of the usual other way around!
