Today's Target Haul!

Happy Friday everyone and yay for a beautiful fall weekend!

Today my family (Mom, Dad, Brother and Sister) left to go to Lansing, Michigan for the weekend. My brother is graduating from law school on Sunday, which is awesome, but I am not able to go because I have far too much school work to do. I'm a little sad that I am missing out but I think I made a responsible decision.

It is a bit boring here without my sister and I really do not feel like starting my work quite yet, so to remedy my boredom I went to Target to check out their nail polish and I picked a few things up!

The first thing I picked up from Target was an e.l.f nail polish set. I've thought about getting this a few times before but just never did. I could not pass it up today though because the set was on sale for $2.50! It usually retails for $5.00, good deal.

The set came with four colors. Two of them are creme polishes and the other two are shimmer polishes. 

The first color is simply called Nude, which is exactly what it is. It is a peachy, pink creme polish that would be a great color for everyday wear.

The second creme polish is called Smokey Brown. The name is true to the color, it is a light brown that is almost kind of mauve-y too. I can't wait to wear this color! I think it will be a perfect color for fall which is great since tomorrow is the first day of fall!

This color is called Party Purple. It is a deep, shimmery, purple. This is not my favorite out of the bunch, but I am sure it will still get a lot of use. 

The last color, which is my favorite out of the set, Smokey Brown coming in at a very close second, is called Dark Navy. Again the name is pretty true to the color. It is a dark, shimmery, navy polish and I love it. I am also excited to use this one but I may wait till it's closer to December since it reminds me of winter a little bit. 

Last but not least I saw this polish and just had to pick it up. I am a sucker for black based polishes with little chunks of glitter in it. I saw this and started painting my nails with it in the store. This color is called Twlight Rays. I really love this polish but I really hate the name since I am not a Twlight fan in the least. This is my favorite polish that I picked up today and am really pumped to wear it!  

Life post

Ahhh! It has been so long since my last post!  =(

School is in full swing and I am constantly being bombarded with work. Though I am busy with readings and papers I have been enjoying all of my classes. Here is a look at some ( not all ) of the books I will be reading this semester.

It is a lot! Most of this books I will be reading cover to cover. This week I have been working on reading The Iliad which is a 683(ish) page poem that takes place during the Trojan war.

So far the book has been fantastic, but is extremely time consuming.

As far as painting my nails...I haven't been doing much of that =( When I paint my nails I usually try to wear that manicure for over a week doing touch-ups as needed. But lately I have just been wearing a top coat. Shocking I know! Today I even went to class today with naked nails!!

I am working on repairing my cuticles since using a lot of nail polish remove has dried them out a bit. I haven't even really been looking into purchasing any new polish lately either. I think my total amount of polish is at 323, but I recently lost one after a long night with Goldshlager so that count may not be totally accurate. Hopefully soon I will be back to posting swatches!
