Simple to design & easy to create on your own. With just a little bit of patience, it can make all the difference.
For each nail, the black dot was placed sporadically. Not one follows the exact placement to make them exciting to look at. I wanted to have fun on some of the nails on the right hand so I dragged a very sharp brush through the dot to create a distorted effect for a touch of creativity.
November’s just flying by and now its Thanksgiving week. I can recall a time when I was in middle school and believing how slow time went and now I just gasp at how fast I’m going through my calender’s. I was talking to a friend earlier this week about the major time difference between LA and New York City.
My boyfriend and I spend little over a week in the West Coast, going to LA, Catalina Island, Baja California and Mexico (we were on a cruise 😉 lol) But that was my first experience in the West Coast and OH MAN did it feel like a month instead of a week. It just felt a lot longer than what we were used too and I kind of liked the change.

This trip to Baltimore.. The ride there from New York City was about four hours with afternoon hours. I didn’t mind (since I wasn’t driving, luckily, but my boyfriend had to touch it out for both of us.. his amazing). I’ve had never gone to Baltimore before so it was beautiful getting to see the area with its colonial style neighborhoods. We booked an airbnb and our host was explaining to us that Maryland was still a slave state when it was banned in the North during and even during the civil war. Didn’t remember my US history class going over that! crazy.
We went for a company event and they also hosted a Halloween party for us. I was dressed as a dark angel.. as you can see.
Shoes: Nine West; Dress & long cardigan: Forever 21; Hair: Wig (although I might cut it short like it); Leather Jacket: (don’t remember)
Bulky and soft but with a lot of punch. My top half felt like a mini fridge because of the square shape of this cropped sweater. Every time I wear this I have the urge to cuddle with myself because of the texture of the fibers all along the sweater. Black, white and bold. Nothing wrongs with a little attitude and sassyness’ness lol especially with my own cat creations.
I paired the sweater up with a olive green stretch knit skirt.. I pulled it up to my waist & hence the l e g s. Underneath my sweater I wore a beige cardigan, just to add a bit of color blocking effect. Around my hips are chains, fake gold chains as belts and behind me a fish pendant dangling on my hips. It goes well with the theme, no? Also, a bit unexpected. Who’d a thought?
Winter has officially kicked in NYC. I can’t wait to find the most fabulous coats & sweaters for my petite figure. To be honest, its difficult to find items that fit nicely on a smaller physique. No matter how much I do my oh so elaborate ballerina & gymnast stretches (sarcasm here, work with me love) I wont get taller 😦
Hence why everything I find are literally like treasures..
