In pursuit of a fun summer color, I stumbled upon this beauty. OPI Cajun Shrimp is the perfect summer color for your fingers and toes. Did I mention this coral looks stunning with a tan? Per usual, the formulation was on point. I will be wearing this one into fall to go with my chunky knits and jeans! Honestly this color could go year round so don’t hesitate to pick it up in a cooler month.
What is your fave coral color for the summer? Fall? Let me know!
lots of love,
Looooonnnggggg time no talk, y’all. Wow I did not realize how busy I would be for two weeks straight. First came four tests and then Spring Break- so I struggled to find time to write. But I’m baaack and better than ever! I had such a great day spending time with my family and eating some super great food. I hope y’all had a good one! :)
Here’s my outfit from today.
Shoutout to my iPhone for this solid low quality picture.
Here’s a few things I’m loving right now…
This week’s Manicure SUNday is dedicated to this creamy grey hue from Essie’s Spring Collection, Petal Pushers. I decided it was time to get out of my rut/comfort zone of OPI’s Lincoln Park After Dark, which I’ve been wearing back to back for the past four months. I’ve always loved Essie polishes, and this one is no different. Love the formulation and two coats was all I needed.
PS: Check out my adorable mug! Shoutout to my Harry Styles lovin’ pal, Cat for it!
What color is on your nails right now?
I finally was able to take a real break this week and I always love the idea of playing tourist in my own city for fun. Living in Baton Rouge, we don’t get to go to NOLA as much as I did in high school since it’s not the quickest trip. When I’m home, I make it a point to head into the city. It’s one of my favorite places in the world, and hopefully someday I’ll be able to live there.
Maddie, Zach and I went Uptown to Magazine Street, Oak Street and St. Charles to do a little exploring and picture taking. The weather has been super duper bi-polar this winter, and it was surprisingly actually pretty chilly. I’m one of those people who wouldn’t dare to ruin an outfit with some chunky layers just to keep warm, so of course I had to stay warm in style.
Maddie and I both chose to rock our Hunters (which we LUURRVE) and some jeans. We are super into ripped jeans, especially in this medium wash. I opted for a monochromatic top half featuring a chunky oatmeal colored knit sweater from Madewell (which I borrowed from Maddie #blessed), and my cream quilted puffer vest from J Crew. Maddie is sporting a pale pale blue colored basic tee from Urban and for warmth she added an olive army-inspired jacket and chunky scarf.
I took a few shots of Zach just to show y’all how much he was SLAYING. There are so many things I could say about Zach, but really I’ll just leave it at the fact that he used to wear ugly tennis shoes and jeans… Look at him now. Started from the bottom now he’s here. Zach doesn’t get cold easily so he opted for some short navy shorts with a belt, basic white tee and denim jacket. His urban, yet preppy look wasn’t complete without a Vineyard Vines hat and some Adidas Stan Smiths.
I’ll link all of our outfit details here.

Yep. I can die happy now, having found the most perfect and creamy baby blue hue. Essie’s Bikini So Teeny from their 2014 summer collection has me hooked. It’s so eye-catching and adds such an adorable pop to any outfit! With only two coats, I was good to go! I’ve always loved the formulation of essie polishes (I have over 50… oops) and this one is no different. Do yourself a favor and check out this polish, I’m sure you’ll fall in love with it like I did!
