Things I Love Thursdays

Along with the recent changes i’m working on for the new blog design, i’ve been working out a more regular schedule here at CBC. For starters, i’m a really big fan of “Things I Love Thursdays”, so I decided there was no reason not to share MY loves on Thursdays too!

I really love Tulips. I know they don’t last as long as many other flowers and I also know they are much simpler looking; but in a way I think that is part of their beauty. (Source?)

Mermaids are my absolute favorite. Her fin is so soft, it reminds me of Chiffon…. here

This pretty much sums up how I feel when looking at math problems.

I just….. LOVE this.

I wish I could teleport here every time I had a stressful thought.

Other Loves:

There are many ways you can help the victims of Hurricane Sandy. One of which is through the Red Cross foundation. Anything and everything helps.

If it was in my budget right now, I would definitely buy This Cinderella Eye Shadow Palette.

Quite possibly one of the happiest displays i’ve ever seen.

3-D Nails, the Newest Beauty Craze **Cortney Loves**

With Summer approaching, everyone is looking for the hottest nail polish colors to wear. One manicure trend that seems to be on the rise is 3-D nails. They come in all colors and styles accented with rhinestones, beads, cabochons, and even pearls. Many women who typically go with a simple, standard manicure think 3-D nails are hot this season. Getting a manicure like this one, leaves so much room for creativity. You can do so many color combinations and even show off your favorite animated character like Hello Kitty.

And Don’t Forget: Nicki Minaj Fragrance Announced

Another fun option is to have just one nail on each hand 3-D while the rest of your nails are left with just color or a more simple non-3-D design. I’m hoping to get a 3-D manicure as soon as my budget allows. I think this is such a fun trend with endless possibilities for design and self expression.
