Urban Outfitters Nail Polish Review

Hey friends! It's time for another product review! I thought that I would review something that I bought while in Denver. I want to do a review on the nail polishes that I bought at Urban Outfitters.


First of all, these were completely an impulse buy as they have buckets and buckets of nail polish, jewelry and other fun goodies in a labyrinth on the way up to the registers. I settled on two colors that I don't really have, but caught my eye.


'Undercover' by UO Ecote Collection and 'Storm' by UO Prairie Rose Collection

Aren't these just beautiful? I usually gravitate towards the bright and bold colors but this time I went a different direction. And you all should know by now how I love my gray hues. These also totally scream fall to me even though they are not the traditional fall colors one would expect.

I had read somewhere before that these polishes are high shine and chip resistant and that got me really excited to get my paws on some.

I had originally only intended on painting one of each of my nails with these colors as sort of a swatch to see how they handle and I ended up painting my whole hand! These are not only high gloss but they dry super fast (which is always a plus for a crafter!). I have only had them painted for a day but I have not yet had to do any touch ups and I think they look really good for not having used a base or top coat.


The real challenge will be to see how these fair on a Thursday at work as that is a truck day and I spend the whole day using my hands to peel open boxes.

Well done Urban Outfitters! I will be back for more!

What I Love Wednesday 10.2.13

It's already October! How exciting. This is truly one of my favorite months. Anyway, I am happy to be back from vacation. I am vigorously working on editing pictures and trying to use YouTube video editing to create an awesome vlog to post soon. I would also like to do a haul video from our little trip, anyway, on to the favorites!

Crushed Velvet Leggings


I have loved crushed velvet leggings ever since I saw Cutiepiemarzia and Grav3yardgirl featured some in a haul and in lookbooks. I had a feeling that they were going to be an ever-growing popular fashion trend. I snagged myself a pair of black ones at Urban Outfitters (seeing as we don't have one and I have only ever been to one in Las Vegas 3 years ago.) I regret not also getting the maroon pair, but I probably would have had to buy more clothing... BooHoo.

 This Is A Book by Demetri Martin


This book is so much more than a book. If you like Demetri Martin's comedy, you should definitely get this book. I love how he's included some of his illustrations and always hilarious graphs here as well. I haven't finished reading it so that's about as much as I can talk about.

Baby Leemurs


I remember one of the first times I saw leemurs at a zoo and being obsessed with how they look like a combination of cats, bats and raccoons. I later rekindled a love for them when Kirstie Alley briefly had her own television show and she had them for pets. And now, the above photo. Need I say more?

 The Office


The Office will always be one of my favorite shows. I have recently started re-watching it on Netflix since they've added the final season and I am in love all over again. I dread watching the finale fearing that if it ends a small piece of me will die inside. I am feel a real connection to a lot of the characters and love how their lives and relationships with each other have grown. If Creed, Andy and/or Toby are not your favorite characters then why are you here?

Baby Got Bat Bag


Y'all know nothing about my obsession with Halloween. I love it. I love to decorate for it, I love to dress up for it. It can be a lot of different things for people. My problem is that I would wear this bag all year long and never be tired of it. Just look how cute that dopey little guy is!

That's all for this week. No playlist this week since I have only started listening to two new songs. Next time!
