Mint* Nails Inc. Haymarket and Gold Sparkle* Forever 21 Gold Rush
Phew! It’ s been kind of a busy week for me, so I didn’t have time to paint my nails until last night. First I spent a little bit of time picking out my outfit for Lulu’s Style Studio and Blogger’s Night Out. Once I’d made that decision, it was time to gussy up my nails for tonight’s events! Since I’ll be wearing one of my fave LBDs, I want to bring in the color with my accessories and makeup. I was hunting for a great mint green nail polish for a while and finally picked it up a few months ago- I can’t wait to wear it again in the spring too! Then of course, I had to throw some gold glitter on top since I plan to be rockin’ some gold accessories tonight :) I’m so excited for these two events- hope to see some of you there!
Tell me: Who’s in NYC right now for New York Fashion Week?
![BLOODMARKED by Tracy Deonn (@simonteen #gifted) • This was probably my most anticipated release of 2022 and it was amazing! LEGENDBORN catapulted onto my list of all-time favorite books when I read it a couple years ago and now BLOODMARKED is right up there with it.
I loved being back in this world and back with these characters. Bree is such an incredible main character. She can be critical of herself, but she’s also so brave and strong. She lets herself be vulnerable with her close circle of friends. She loves fiercely and she would go to the ends of the earth for the people that she loves. Throughout this book, Bree has so many questions about her powers. When she finally realizes the answer, I was like “Yesssss, girl, yessssss!!!”
I’m so in awe of the fantasy world that Deonn has created. I loved learning more about Bree’s magic in book 2 and it still feels like there’s so much left to discover about the magical workings of this world.
This book was action-packed up and I did not want to put it down! I saved it for my honeymoon so that I could read it in longer chunks. I’m so glad I did that because I feel like it really allowed me to immerse myself in the world as I was reading.
I enjoyed this book so much, from the character growth, to the battle scenes, to the themes of self-discovery and finding your path. I can’t wait for more people to read BLOODMARKED! If you haven’t read the LEGENDBORN books yet, what in the world are you waiting for??

Amazing nails. Looks like a robin’s egg! Thanks for being awesome and can’t wait to see your LBD tonight.
LOVE them! I wish I was in NYC for fashion week…
Sadly I don’t think I’ll make it tonight, the train I would need to take is at 5:45 and I get home at 5:20 and would need to change and get ready still…

Glitter! My nails are a mess, ugh. They’re so terribly unpolished compared to yours!
Cute! Love the vibrancy. You did a great job. I’m definitely not in NY for fashion week…and probably never will be. Hehe.
