InstaLately Link Up 6

I finally found the VS eyeshadow I talked about last week in Undiscover! I've been using it on my eyes and then brushed it on the tops of my cheeks too.

Standard lunch in CA. You have to get extra spread though for your fries! For those of you who may not know, spread is like fry sauce (50/50 mayo + ketchup) with some relish. It's delish.

Groopdealz was featuring the infamous bubble necklaces. I like how they look, but they're so trendy I've avoided them, but for $10 I didn't want to pass them up. I was between yellow and blue and thought to buy both, but chose only one color. Then I picked one up for my sister too.

Proof I can bake from scratch! Hubs was really craving some banana nut bread and I made this all by myself without hazard. It was delicious too! The hubs' exact words were "amazing". Kudos to me!

I'm still in love with braids in your hair. I'm totally not over this trend and I hope it never goes away. I'm also wearing the VS shadow here on both my eyelids and cheeks.

This Savina gold polish is one of my favorites and an easy go-to for me. I topped my ring/thumb with the Sephora by OPI Gold glitter, but it wasn't really showing up like I thought it might so I put on some OPI Glitter to make it pop.

This weekend I met up with a good friend for lunch. It was so great to see her and spend hours catching up. I'm wearing Old Navy's quilted vest and I love it. I have a yellow one from college and have been wanting a black one for over a year. I haven't taken it off since it was delivered. It's so cozy!

I ordered our Christmas cards this week and they arrived so fast! I really love the service and quality at Shutterfly. We buy our cards there every year. This year's card is super cute and I'm forcing myself to wait until December to mail them out. Last year, I had them sent out before Thanksgiving! LOL.

Pomegranates are one of my season's favorite fruits! My mom used to get them for my sister and I every year and we always had one in our stockings. I couldn't wait to dive into this beauty. It tasted like childhood.

When I walked into work, a woman came up to me in a matter of minutes asking me about my necklace. I wore one of my two Lollysheep necklaces nearly every single day.

Product Review: Savina Nail Polish

Have you ever tried this brand Savina? I've only seen it at Nordstrom Racks, but I really like the polish. This is my third or fourth bottle I've bought and the color is so great! I could have used just one coat, but did two just so it would last longer. This color (as well as past colors I've used- purple, pink, gray) are very pigmented and look the same on as they do in the bottle. It dries fast, and last the usual 4-6 days depending on your activities. Also, it's only $4!!! Total steal!

I really like this gold color too, it has a bit of shimmer to it, so it's pretty fun. Plus it's kind of a jazzy neutral color and will look good year round. Next to my Sally Hansen brand, this is quickly becoming a new favorite. I just wish it was sold at more locations. It's also the perfect shade to copy Vanessa Hudgen's recent mani/pedi.
