DIY: Bracelet Holder + nails of the day






     





 What you'll need:

  • CD holder 
  • Cardboard paper roll 
  • Spray paint (whichever color you prefer)
  • Glue gun 
So as you can see in first picture, that is how I used to store all of my arm candy.  Yeah, it was about to overflow so I decided to make something that can easily hold a fair amount of bracelets.  I opted to make something that you can easily find around the house and it was definitely easy to make.  So first of all, you spray paint the CD holder and the cardboard paper roll with which ever color you desire.  Make sure you're somewhere ventilated for health purposes.  Leave them to dry for a good couple of hours outside.  After they are fully dry, it you want, you can cut it to whatever length you want.  Then,  get your glue gun or super glue and glue the bottom to the CD holder.  Let that dry for a couple of hours as well.  Finally, you can put all of your bracelets and have an easy way to store them.  Hope you guys try this simple DYI :)
See ya' Later,

P.S
I just wanted to show you my recent nails.  It's Essie's Eternal Optimist and a simple black nail polish to create my funky looking flower.

Neon meets metallics




Lately I've been really inspired by all the metallic and neon trends going on at the moment.  I definitely had to try it on my nails and that was the outcome.  I must say, I kinda love the combo; the yellow and the metallic grey look so great to me.  It does look kinda sloppy on the edges but it was one of those midnight ideas I had lol.  The Sephora by OPI is called Queen of Everything and the Sally Hansen is called Mellow Yellow.  I'm pretty sure you can still find both the stores if you wish to use this combo. Hopefully you guys like.

Unif Hellraisers









You guys, you guys! I finally got my hellraisers in the mail, yesterday evening! Oh man, I was so excited when that FedEx guy came (I totally looked like crap).  Also, I have been researching these shoes and looking at review forever and a day now...I know form a couple of reviews that they are starting to sell another version of them that don't look like they're 100% leather.  I order my pair from soulstruck.com and they have the very original ones there for sure.  I ordered them in a size 8 and I normally use an 8.5 and they fit perfectly.  I can't wait to actually wear them out.    

Peace out! lol

Nails of the day

 Hey, beautiful people! So just showing you my random nails of the day.  I've been looking for a yellow nail polish forever and a day until I spotted this one at target.  Quite frankly, it's the perfect yellow for my type of skin color.  Many would say it's too bright but it's perfect.  I wanted to add that extra POP to my nails so I gathered a bunch of different colors and just stared dotting them on my nails and below was the end result. Really easy and it perfectly suits the sunny season of summer.

Summer Nights

So I got 3 days off from work this week and I've been super lazy but I actually did something today.  Yes, indeed I did. I actually hung out with my best friend and had a corny dinner and movie date with her.  Oh man, ever since I started working I feel like I've been deprived from everything and everyone and it felt nice going out into the real world and just hand out and talk.  I also went to Hooters for the very first time...what a shocker, of course, since I live under a rock. HA HA.  It was pretty decent, I guess.  We ended up watching Ted which I was waiting to watch forever! It was simply Hilarious! A definite must watch.  Overall, a great evening. Omg, I also forgot to mention that I actually got the guts to finally buy the Unif Hellraisers! I've been wanting these for about a year already and I finally ordered them as a gift to myself.  I'm pretty excited and should arrive on Friday.  I'll most like post about it 'til them so for now, see ya' later!

Are you sure it's not Friday?

Well, technically i'ts already Friday but yesterday really didn't feel like it and I really don't know why.  I mean, I went to work and everything but I surprisingly got out early (6:15, say what?) maybe that's why?  Anyways, as soon as I got home, I asked my mom if she wanted to watch a movie and so we did.  We ended up watching Magic Mike...OMG Channing Tatum *insert Homer Simpson drool here* yeah, you get the point.  I also wore my cool Sam Edelman inspired shoes today, too.  They're from the brand Vera by Vera Wang (I'll insert pictures) and I also did my nails:) So that was pretty much my day.  It was nice writing about it lol.

Buh-Bye,
Cynthiaxoxo

Nails, Nails, Nails.


So lately, I've been really into doing my nails.  A while back, when I actually had time, I would always do them all the time.  Unfortunately, life has been kinda hectic and I can care less what design is on my nails.  I only pretty much care about the color and that's about it.  Well yeah.  So since today is 4th of July I had, had to do a cheesy patriotic look and the other is my crappy version of Ombre nails.  Well, they're both crappy lol but I like 'em.  :)
