Bib Necklaces…DO WE LIKE IT?

Over the winter break, I saw these new necklaces at Nordstrom.  I’m still not sure if I like them or not.  This weekend at Aldo, I noticed they’re coming out with matching earrings.  DO WE LIKE IT?

Rihanna performs ‘Rude Boy’ on Ellen

Yeeeessss!  Finally some stage presence!  I think this is probably my favorite song of hers and I’m so glad she made it a single.  I absolutely love the video.  It was directed by Melina. Who also directed Solange’s “I Decided” and MIA’s “Boyz.”  Solange is a bit salty about the likeness of the two videos.  I say get over it… “I Decided” is more of a 60’s Motown feel, while “Rude Boy” is more dancehall/90’s.  Don’t let me convince you though… you be the judge:

 

A More Everyday Friendly MINX Nails Look

For those of you that aren’t aware.  MINX Nails are the biggest trend happening right now when it comes to nail design in Hollywood.  You may have seen Beyonce, Rihanna, and Keri Hilson rocking these designs.  Essentially MINX is a foil, not a polish, that is placed onto the nail to give the nail a metallic look that is unachievable thru polish.  MINX is also used for patterns and prints.

The problem with MINX for everyday people like you and me is that they only last 2-4 days.  MINX is also expensive!  They’re best for special occasions and not everyday wear…

Here’s a solution!  ORLY FOIL FX!
