OPI's Get Me to the Taj on Time, is a pearly white color with the faintest bit of pink thrown in. I like it for a nude color, it doesn't have yellow in it which would give my nails a sickly color.

Nail Polish of the Week: Get Me To The Taj On Time
I know, I know... its late. But just think, I went 3 whole days with naked nails! I just never had the time to sit down and do them, so I forced myself to do it last night. I didn't have much time, so I picked a lighter color of easier cleaning.

What I Wore
Get excited, another post! After a week of not having time, I'm catching up on all my posting. I went to a Jodi Arnold Trunk show this morning, this is what I wore.
I had some hair issues this morning, I got this big bump on the side, I had to go back and fix that.
The trunk show was ok, the clothes were gorgeous but definitely out of my budget. We thought we were going to be able to meet Jodi Arnold the designer, but we just got a glimpse of her as she walked by. They were busy doing a run through for the fashion show tonight.

Beware of Frizz
Decided to do something a little different today, I decided to take the time out and straighten my hair. Usually, I start out with washed hair, I blow dry and brush it out.
I always get questions to how my hair looks brushed out, there it is in all its frizzy glory.
Today, I used Chi Iron Guard Spray and Chi Infra Texture dual action hairspray, and my Chi Iron and 45 minutes later, I get nice and straight locks.
Tomorrow Should be exciting, I have an event where Designer Jodi Arnold will be attending and a display project for my Visual Merch class. I should have my camera with me, so get excited.

And of course I couldn't be bothered to get my camera, or put on makeup for pictures. So you get computer pictures and scary no make up face.
I'll throw in some goofing around pictures as well. But this week has been hectic again, mainly tests, work and projects all jumbled together. I got a picture of my mannequin with the block on, but it is stuck on my phone right now.

Time Warp
Recently we received some pictures in the mail from my Great Uncle.

| Great Grandparent's wedding, December 26, 1929, Cuba. |
They feature my family in 1920s Cuba.

| Great Grandmother |
I find it really interesting to go back and look at styles and fashions of back in the day.

| Great Grandmother |
Fashion is constantly moving forward, but I love looking back to see where we have been.
The veil at my great grandmother's wedding is just amazing. I love the head piece, and I was surprised at the length of her dress.
This wedding guest stood out. I love that you can really see the silhouette of her dress, and she is one of the only ones were you can see what shoes she is wearing.
Even though the flower girl is turned away, you still get to see how sweet she looks with the adorable full skirt and puff sleeves.
These pictures really excited me for two reasons. First we don't really have many old family pictures so its something rare for me to see. Second, I love looking at old clothing and to see what my family was wearing back in the day is special.
As a special treat...
Me as a kid, I was adorable...

You Mean Its Still Wednesday?
Last week was a blur. I had taken outfit pictures one day, but never got a chance to post them. So here it goes...
So, this was my outfit from my interview last Thursday. I finally didn't wear jeans to school, so I definitely had to do an outfit post. Although, I should have taken it before school, when I wasn't all wrinkled.
I wore my favorite J. Crew shirt, with an A-Line Old Navy skirt (I've had since high school), and grey patent ballet flats.
Notice the red nails against the purple shirt, I love wearing red with lavender, I just think its such a petty combination.
