Nail Polish Haul {Essie, OPI}

So if you're friends with me on fb or watch my youtube channel, you should know that I started a new job about a month ago.

Well this new salon carries all Aveda Products for skin/hair care and we carry OPI/Essie polishes. I'm pretty sure I spend more money there than I make!

So this is what I purchased monday at work for nail polish!

Top OPI L-R: OPI Pink Shatter, Dont Mess With OPI, Original Nail Envy
Bottom Essie L-R: Raspberry, label fell off so idk the second one, raise awareness, coat azure, power clutch.

This week I have not been able to leave work without buying something, so I will probably be doing a lot of reviews in the near future.

Going On Safari? Part Deux

Ok so in my last post I wrote all about this bed set that I had purchased from walmart.com.

WELLLLL lets just say I am not crazy about the set and I will tell you why:

1. The color is very poorly represented online which is typically the case bc all computers show colors differently. FINE, not a huge deal but still slightly obnoxious when I finally found what I thought was a perfect bed set.
2. I have a queen sized bed, so I ordered a queen size bed set. Normally I like to buy king size comforters but it came with the set so I figured I'd just make do with the queen. Well this time I didn't have a problem with the size of the comforter, but the fitted sheet, IT'S TOO SMALL! My boyfriend tosses and turns constantly and every night (multiple times a night!!) I have to get up and pull the sheet back down over the corners. HIGHLY annoying.
3. The feel of the comforter, which I know sounds weird but it's something that I don't even know if I can describe. At first it appears to be a really nice weight comforter but after getting into bed it feels very heavy and clingly. Its hard to move and just seems to stick to you. That probably sounds insane but it's enough that I haven't used the entire bed set probably since I bought it.
   

So I am back on the hunt again for some sort of *PERFECT* animal print bedding. Fingers crossed and wish me luck!
