NOTD: Riveting

This is another polish from the Hunger Game collection and I absolutely love it! It's a nice orange with gold shimmer in it. I think that they should have called it 'Girl on Fire' but that's just me. 



I like that the polish dies nice and smooth and not rough like some others with shimmer in it. It also only took two coats to get this nice opaque color. I think next time i will definitely be wearing it on my toes. Plus with the gold shimmer it is going to look great with a tan in the summer time.

OOTD: Skulls and Bones

I went shopping yesterday and thought i would throw together an outfit with a couple things I got. My choices were slightly limited since I only brought certain things home with me on spring break, but I really like what I got and I will be doing a Haul soon on my channel. 

I am so in love with this scarf! what attracted me to it was that it reminds me of the Alexander McQueen skull scarves that I have been lusting over. It was a much better price though ;)





And I thought i would just throw in a quick one of J and I :)

Shirt: Old Navy (sale rack!)
Tank top: Aeropostale
Scarf: Claires
Pants: Old Navy
Boots: Kmart (only $10)

NOTD: 'Fast Tack' from The Hunger Games collection

When I first saw picture of the Hunger Games collection I knew I had to get my hands on Fast Track. I painted my nails with this as soon as I got home and I am happy to say I love it just as much as I thought I would!

It did need 3 coats but I was expecting this much due to the lightness in color. However, it was really easy to apply and even with 3 coats it doesn't seem to be too thick.  As you can see from the pictures it is a nice  golden tan color with gold shimmers. I think this color is going to be such a great everyday color and would look nice on someone of any age!



I bought 3 other from the collection, so stay tuned for post about those soon!

We have PUPPIES!

Let me first start of my introducing you to my doggie family. I have 2 dogs Bailey (a maltipoo) and Petey ( a Morkie)
Petey- left Bailey-Right


Pete is under a year old so the vet told us there was no need to get him fixed because he couldn't get Bailey pregnant, well I guess he was wrong because we now have 3 beautiful little puppies which we have named Zoe, who I am keeping, Hotrod, which is what my brother called everything (also what my dad calls hime) and Walter the runt.
                                 Walter

This is Zoe, the one I am keeping, She is the only one that doesn't have white front paws

                                 Hotrod



I hope you enjoyed all of this cuteness! I am so excited to watch Zoe grow, I already love her so much and she is only a few weeks old.

xoxo, Tayonna

Ps. I am sorry these picture aren't the best quality, most of them were taken with my iPhone, i promise to most more soon!

OOTD: February 27

It was super warm today so I decided to break out a dress. I did pair it with some leggings because it is still a little chilly. I loved this outfit, it was super comfortable and I got a compliment on it which is always awesome! I only wish I had more time to do something with my crazy hair, but hey, sleep is more important to me (sorry :(..)
The boots were also really comfortable. I was going to pair it with some more grayer ones but i thought these pair nicely. I got these boots on Black Friday and I was super excited, now I just need a few more outfits to pair them with!
please forgive me for the crap quality, I had to pull J away from his xbox to take these and he was in a hurry! 

cardigan- Old Navy sale last winter
Dress- Target
Tank- aeropostale (light pink)
leggings- walmart ( only 5.88 and they're really thick! )
boots- Jcpenny (i think)

I hope you had a great day! 
xoxo, Tayonna

Photography?

So, I recently (today actually!) posted a video on YouTube where I mentioned I am really into Photography and as promised here is a blog post with some of my favorite images. I did add my name to the pictures just because I don't want anyone to take credit for these images and they can end up anywhere. 







This is just a few of hundreds and it was really hard for me to pick these out but I hope you enjoyed them !

Lips Amplified: Impassioned

I am so excited about this post...because I just wrote how i was lusting over this product and now here it is! 
My first Mac lipstick, or product for that matter! I was going to pick a nude color like hue or cream cup but I thought what the heck why not go for something a little bit, well brighter! This is Mac impassioned.
(with flash)
I am so in love with the color, it goes so nice with my skin color and I think i will be getting lots of wear out of this even though it is so bright. I also really love the formula, it's amplified if you couldn't tell by the title. I am really excited to get my hands on some more Mac lipsticks.

What is your favorite Mac lipstick?

NOTD: Valentines Day

Let me first start of with I am in a very, very, happy relationship but I still think Valentines Day is meant just as another reason to get people to spend their money. With the being said i thought i would do my nails to reflect my feelings. 
I choose to do black and then a nice hot pink color on the ring fingers and I love it. I have always been a fan of black nails and within the last year or so everyone has been doing the pop of color and I think it's amazing and really worked for my valentines day feelings.
I don't believe that I have used this color before, and i was a little bit spectacle, if you read my post NOTD: French Pink then you will know why. But, i was really surprised with this color because in my opinion it doesn't look anything like it does in the bottle. It is much brighter and it has really nice blue undertones to it that make it really stand out against the black.
If you can't tell from the pictures the name of this is 'Raspberry Rush'. After seeing it on my nails today i am quite excited to wear it on my toes this summer. 
And just in case you wanted to see the black i used it's called 'Black Out' but really any black would work! :)

I hope you are all having a wonderful Valentines day!
xoxo, Tayonna
