This song randomly popped into my head and I fell in love with the song again.

Metallic Nails for Autumn

I've noticed that metallic nail polishes are everywhere for the upcoming fall season. They are definitely going to be a huge Fall nail trend. Although I do not own a metallic nail polish, I decided to kind of make my own. My mom recently bought the Bobbi Brown Twilight makeup package during the Nordstrom anniversary sale. The package consisted of a sparkly taupe colored nail polish that I was hoping would be opaque enough to look metallic. Unfortunately it is a bit sheer to wear on its own and doesn't really achieve the metallic look. So I thought if I put it on top of a black nail polish it'll give a nice contrast to the shimmers, thus giving the metallic effect.
I absolutely love how it turned out! The black and the taupe shimmer make such a great combo.

Sorry about my ugly fingers :P

Atlanta

I was super excited about going to Atlanta because I wanted to test how much I learned in my photography class. I feel like I learned a lot because I managed to get great pictures while I was there. Not only that, but I also felt a lot more comfortable with adjusting the settings of the camera to fit exactly what kind of picture I wanted. Honestly, I think I was more excited about taking pictures than actually enjoying the trip. It also helped that I've been to Atlanta before so I knew where I would take pictures. So here they are and I didn't edit any of these pictures because I don't really have an editing program....

(p.s. I know that most likely no one will take my pictures, but if you do I would appreciate it if you linked it back to my blog. I know that my skills are definitely lacking still and I have a lot to learn, but these pictures are still something I'm proud of and I want to treat it as if they are my "works". I hope you understand. Thank you)

Oh and if you are a more experienced photographer who would like to give me (the beginner) some constructive criticism, that would be awesome!

I'll throw in this song I found today just because I'm lovin it!

Alabama

After meeting my friend, who I hadn't seen for about 5 years, we started off the day with a nice Korean treat.

Had to drive about 2 hours to get to a decent sized mall.

Serious face.

Whenever I hear or think about Alabama, this song gets stuck in my head..

I don't even like this song!

OOTD: Atlanta

As mentioned before, I went to Atlanta. I was there for a total of about 24 hours and as soon as we got there we went to the World of Coca-Cola. (I will have those pictures up soon) This picture was taken at the Olympic Park, which is right in front of the Coke place. Here is a sort of unprofessional outfit of the day. I bought that backpack a few days before and I'm loving it!
