How classic is this dark emerald color! Stylenomics an absolute must have for fall/winter and going to be my first "official" color for the season. Once I get over bright pink anyway (a lasting summer obsession of mine). Hope it's easy to track down!

UPDATE! Color found and tested (see image below). Target has this color as well as the rest of Essie's fall collection. I also purchased Skirting the Issue (I just couldn't resist)! I'm fall ready! :)

Quick music post! My iPod has been on high (and repeat) while listening to this track off of Gemini Club's new album, Here We Sit (out April 17th). It's been my jam all week. Great upbeat tunes that make you just want to get up and dance! Instant good mood creator!

Fun outfit for Spring! Neons + leopard flats!

I am OBSESSED with the band, (who's new to me) Memoryhouse and their new album The Slide Show Effect. I love their dreamy sounds and tracks that feature hints of indie pop. I've had their album on constant play for days! Great feel good leisurely tunes. One of my favorites (The Kids Were Wrong) from their latest album is linked below. Check them out on itunes, spotify or their site!

Who's tired of junk mail? Everyone right!?! Cut the clutter with this new app that fights those pesky solicitors that attack via your mail box. The concept is pretty awesome and the steps are really simple! Once you've created an account, you snap a picture of the sender's mailing label (usually accompanied by a corporate logo) through the PaperKarma app, send it off to them and you're done! PaperKarma does all the hard work (contacting the company and getting your name off their distribution list). The app works best for junk mail addressed directly to you (i.e. has your name on it).

I get personalized credit card applications in the mail all. the. time. So I tried this out with some American Express junk mail and while the verdict is still out on whether or not I've been removed from their list (since I just did this yesterday and it takes a few weeks for mailers to process the request) I'm very hopeful! Side note: this app is super new (about a week old) so bare with them if you encounter any delays. The app is available for iphone, android and windows phones.

I can't wait to get my hands on this sea green nail polish! It's the prefect pastel for Spring! Color is from the Betsey Johnson for Sephora By OPI collection due out in March. Ugh, can it please be March already! See link below for full collection, including the first ever scented nail polish from Sephora By OPI.

I know this is a tad late with Valentines being two days ago but how AMAZING is this DIY photography project creating your own heart-shaped blur!?! And it's so simple... provided you have an SLR camera with a large aperture lens (1.8 or 2.0), some elementary math skills, and a few other around-the-house items. My aperture's max size isn't as large as Karen of Globetrotter Diaries suggests but I'm going to try and work with what I have and see how my results turn out. Full tutorial is linked below! Aren't her photos nothing short of exquisite! Truly LOVE!
