Born Pretty Store Geometry Stamping Plate

Good afternoon dears!  How's Monday going?  Hopefully all is well and you'll be headed home soon.  I've had a fairly busy day and it'll be this way most of the week but that's alright, at least there's no school so I can sleep in a little.  But I did hurt myself at soccer last night so I'll be nursing a pulled hamstring this week in the hopes that I recover in time for the turkey trot on Thursday and the Thanksgiving soccer tournament on Friday night.  Fingers crossed for me please.  Ok well, I wanted to get back on here real quick so I can get as many posts shared as possible this week.  I have more nail art using a cool geometric stamping plate from Born Pretty.  I have actually used a few of these images already and love the simplicity of the patterns, you can use the designer over cremes, shimmers, glitters and they all look great.  You can pick up the Geometry Stamping Plate HERE for $2.99.  Let's jump in and check it out!

Born Pretty Store Unicorn Chrome Powder

Evening beauties!  It's a 3 day weekend for my kids and we're planning to go to Vegas.  I'm running a half marathon on Sunday and am pretty excited.  I've never run a race in Vegas before and I love destination races!  With my hamstring injury my speed has really been affected so I'll probably take this one easy and make stops for pictures along the way.  No PR (personal record) for me this time but I'll be happy to finish in 2 hours or just over that (my PR is 1:54).  Anywho - I'll try to get some posts up while I'm there and in the hotel room relaxing.  Tonight I've got something really amazing for you - I know you've seen the powders before but I haven't tried them.  Mainly because I like being good at things so sometimes trying new things and knowing I won't be great on the first try makes me shy away from doing it.  Well, there's definitely a learning curve here but I got over myself real quick.  If you're hesitant too you need to bite the bullet and try these amazing powders!  I got this one from Born Pretty Store and it's pretty damn fabulous!  It's the Unicorn Chrome Powder and you can pick it up HERE for $2.99.  You can save 10% on non-sale items using my code JTOW10.  Ok, let's jump in and see all about this awesome powder!

Hullo there!  Happy Sunday.  Did you remember to set your clocks back?  Do you even have any clocks that need that anymore?  I rely on my phone, computer and smart watch to tell me the time and they all set themselves.  Well I was happy for the extra hour because it gave me time to watch Stranger Things 2.  YAS!  So good!  Also gave me time to line up more posts!

Le Chat DareTo Wear; Modern Muse, Fall 2017 & Perfect Match Gel Modern Muse Giveaway

Good evening all!  How was your Saturday?  Mine has been pretty fantastic.  Started the day with a school fundraiser breakfast and that was pretty fun.  Headed off to Naomi's soccer game and her team won again, YES, I'm finally feeling like my coaching is paying off!  Spent a while in the mall shopping and window shopping and eating.  And I've been home for a few hours now just chilling and watching tv, which is cool with me because it's ugly and cold outside.  It even rained here today!   Since we are now in November and everyone and their Mother is rejoicing all things Winter and Christmas, I figured I'd better get my butt in gear and share the remaining Fall collections I have.  So here's the first one.  Le Chat Dare To Wear Modern Muse collection is a classic one.  Autumnal shades in creme finish, perfect addition to any boots and chunky sweater outfit!  The Modern Muse Collection is available now on the site, you can pick them up for $6.50 each!  Alrighty, let's jump in and see some polish!

Shaklee Pumpkin Spice Energizing Shake Mix Shake

Evening friends!  I have a different post to share with you today.  I workout a lot, running 25+ miles a week, playing soccer, gym time a few times a week.  I also really like to eat.  I've never beeline to deprive myself of a full meal and dessert.  But as I get older I notice I don't always stay as slim as I used to be with this routine.  So I started incorporating a shake into my daily (every other daily) routine as a way to lower calories without starving myself.  I have been drinking this product for a couple months now and have gone through 2 replacements already!  I'm not entirely sure if it's the flavor that has me hooked or that I genuinely don't really need that huge lunch and this is the perfect replacement.  Whatever it is I decided to share it with you.  I have never heard of Shaklee before, but they are a pretty large brand selling house cleaning products, meal replacements and supplements and a new skin care line.  I'm going to share my thoughts on the Energizing Shake Mix in Pumpkin Spice flavor.  You can purchase this product in Pumpkin Spice or a selection of other flavors for $50 - $90 depending on the size.  Let's jump in so I can tell you more about this shake and how I feel about it.

Alter Ego November Polish Pickup Exclusive: Make It Work

Evening dolls!  I'm back with another fabulous polish that will be featured in the November Polish Pickup.  If I haven't mentioned it yet the theme is "Fandom" so pretty much anything that has a fan base is game!  Alter Ego went with Project Runway - Tim Gunn to be specific.  I know this show has been around for a really really long time, I'm sure I have watched it once or twice but I honestly can't remember much of it.  I feel like I'm a failure of a fandom girl with this theme.  Alright so as I said in my last couple posts, the Polish Pickup will be open from 11/3 to 11/6.  You can purchase this beautiful Alter Ego, Make It Work for $7 during the ordering time frame.  Let' jump in and check it out!

Girly Bits November Polish Pickup Exclusive: Wait for It

Good morning!  Happy Friday eve!  I'm planning to use slide through today without too much on my plate.  Except I'm going in for a trim, my hair has gotten so shaggy.  Short hair maintenance is no fun.  I'm seriously considering just getting a buzz cut!  Ok, but that's not what this post is about.  It's about another awesome polish that will be available in the November Polish Pickup.  November's theme is "fandom".  So pretty much anything with a fan following was fair game.  Girly Bits went with How I Met Your Mother.  I've probably only seen this show a handful of times, but I always cracked up over Barney's antics.  Anyhow...you can purchase this blue beauty from 11/3-11/6 on the Polish Pickup site.  Let's delve in and I'll tell you more about Wait for It.

Blue Eyed Girl Lacquer November Polish Pick Up Exclusive: The Handsomest Boys

Hey all!  I'm back with a second post tonight to share another gorgeous polish that featured in the November "Fandom" Polish Pickup.  I really like the fandom theme because it really exposes us to so many different characters that we may have never come across.  It's also really fun to see how the makers create a polish to depict those characters.  Blue Eyed Girl Lacquer was inspired by Ouran High School Host Club.  I haven't seen this show before but just from googling images I get the idea and the quick summary shows the plot is a bit deeper than that.  Think Just One of the Guys, non-sexual male escort service, cartoon (I could be TOTALLY wrong here so maybe you should go watch the show and let me know!).  Alright, well this polish will be available from 11/3 to 11/6 and will be $12.  Let's jump in and check it out!

Stella Chroma November Polish Pick Up Exclusive: Breaker of Chains

Evening beauties!  Well, Halloween is behind us.  That means we will now have Christmas shoved down our throats for the next 2 months.  Don't get me wrong, I like Christmas, but I think we have lost sight of what Christmas means.  It's turned into who can out do the next person with grandiose gifts and over the top decorations and activities for the kids.  I'm a super busy mom with 3 very active kids.  I'm lucky if I remember to hide that damn elf every night, I don't need to worry about dusting footprints and making messes with toilet paper.  I just want to enjoy time with my family and not worry about all that other stuff.  LOL, ok now that you know my opinion on the upcoming holiday let's talk about the exciting Polish Pickup for November.  It's "Fandom" themed so pretty much anything goes.  You can buy your favorites from 11/3-11/6.  Stella Chroma was inspired by Game of Thrones with her polish and you can purchase it for $12 during the sale period.  Let's jump in and I'll tell you more about Breaker of Chains!
