Busy Bumble-Bre

Sorry I haven't posted in forever! I've been working and really had nothing to say. I got paid yesterday (a whole $144!!) and went to Rite-Aid tonight to get some nail polishes. I got 6, so I will do a blog post with every color I do, when I decide to paint them that color.

I couldn't decide which color to paint first, but the color I chose I am absolutely IN LOVE with! It's by SinfulColors in the color Bamboo. I grabbed this color because it reminded me a lot of OPI's Jade is the New Black but a little bit brighter.
I couldn't get a decent swatch with my camera. It came out a LOT more blue on camera than it really is, but I still adore this color and recommend it to everyone who likes bright teal nail polishes :)

What I love about this color is that it dries very matte. I was expecting a bright color with no shimmers, but this color did have little flecks of sparkle in it (which was a nice surprise) but it dried with no shiny-ness to the top. I've never had a matte nail polish, it's a nice change. I can't stop looking at my nails! oh, I love SinfulColors so much!

I recently have been reading a book my Jodi Picoult called Plain Truth which is about an Amish community that is shaken up by a found dead infant in a barn house. I am only four chapters into it and don't ever want to stop reading!

Also, I am hooked in ABC Family's Pretty Little Liars! I watched all of the episodes earlier this week and cannot wait to see what it going to happen next! I am considering about getting the books (which will more than likely be 10xs better than the show) but I am going to wait until I get a more steady income.

Until next time I will be adoring my new nail polishes, Jeremaih, and my amazing book :)

xoxo,
Bre

First Day

I had the interview yesterday and got hired on as a substitute!! YES! I start work TODAY! I am SO happy! I hope it leads to something more! I am only working for 2 hours today, but it's better than nothing :)

It is TiffanyD's birthday. So in honor of that, I am painting my nails in Nicole by OPI's Light a Candle. A beautiful silver/lavender color. I am in love with this metalic nail color.

I couldnt get a very good swatch of this color, so I got these from
e-polishblog.blogspot.com.


This is a swatch in artificial light.


This is a swatch in the direct sunlight.

I adore this color. I have read some reviews on metalic nail polishes and a lot of people say that they like the polish to not leave brush stroak lines. For some reason, I kinda like it. It feels more edgy to me. I am very happy with this nail color, and about today :)

Back in Boise

I've been back in Boise for about three days and it feels really good to be home. I missed my little TeddyBear so much! He hasn't forgotten his mommy, which made me happy :). Anywho, I got the BEST call of my life today! My old boss Kalena called and asked me if I was still interested in a job. Uhhh, YEAH! So she game the the number of her place and told me that the boss was interested in setting up an interview! YES! I am soo happy, I could scream at the top of my lungs! Let's hope it all goes well!



^^I just like this picture. TOTALLY unrelated :D^^

Candles by Victoria

As I have mentioned before, I don't have a job. So I am just in 'wish list' land until I get a job. I love candles, but I hate the hassle of lighting them and worring about them, which is why I usually use a Scentsy. My only problem with a Scentsy is that they have a strong fragrance, but (at least to me) the fragrance only lasts about 3 hours, or as long as the first burn. I can't smell it afterwards. I have been on a hunt to find a candle that has a strong fragrance that doesn't loose it's frangrance.

I've heard about Candles by Victoria before from TiffanyD (blogspot.com/makeupbytiffanyd) and Elle Fowler (blogspot.com/allthatglitters21) and have done a little research of my own. I want these candles! They sound amazing. If I had to choose 5 top fragrances, they would be:

Peppermint Bark

This scent is described as: A Christmas time favorite but really great anytime of year. Bits of refreshing peppermint weaved inside rich and creamy white chocolate.

What gets me is the white chocolate. I LOVE white chocolate! When I go to Starbucks, I don't usually get coffee. I get a white hot chocolate. No matter what time of year. Definately a great Christmas time fragrance, which you all know that I love :)

Marshmellow Campfire


Just as the name suggests, toasted marshmellows over an open fire.

Growing up, I was the biggest tomboy. I used to wear over-alls with no shirt on until I was 8 years old, and even then it took some convincing. Needless to say, camping was pretty much my favorite thing to do. We would take the dog, and just have a get away for a weekend. One of my most visited campfire memories is when my older sister Shelby and I were roasting marshmellows together. She grabbed my stick from me (yeah, we didn't use metal pokers, we got them and cut them ourselves) and ate my perfectly toatsted marshmellow; almost half of it! I was about 6 at the time, and that just ruined the night for me. I cried until she made me a new one.

Twilight Woods


Inspired by a romantic walk in enchanted woods, Twilight Woods is a complex blend of apricot nectar, mimosa petals and Tuscan cypress.

This is a dupe for Bath&Body Works Twilight Woods. I love that scent. I am usually a vanilla type of person, but when I smelled this scent, I fell in love. I would really enjoy having this scent linger around my house.

Orange Vanilla


The perfect blend of ripe fresh oranges and sweet, smooth vanilla make this one a favorite. Orange Julius fans will love this scent.


This scent reminds me of summer. Dreamsicles are my all time favorite popsicle, so it just makes sence that I would have this candle!

Tiffany-D


TiffanyD on YouTube inspried me to create this wonderful fragrance. Colored light blue like the infamous Tiffany boxes, a beautiful mix of Watermelon, Honeydew Melon, Cotton Candy with a splash of Vanilla.

I love Tiffany! So, it just makes sence that I would want to try out her fragrance. It's perfect because I (obviously) love sweet fragrances! I'm sure this one is going to be great.

Independance Day

I love that song by Martina McBride. She is so amazing. I love her. In honor of Americas Independence, I painted my nails the blue-ish/purple I got on my late night nail polish run. It turned out a LOT better this time in the application. Last time I had to apply 4 coats for it to be opaque, but today I only had to apply two. I applied three just because, but there really was no need for it.

Here is my result for Cover Girls Boundless Colors in Violet Vision:

Coffeeee!

I have never been a fan of coffee in the morning. I don't know why, but it just does not appeal to me, unless its Starbucks. I usually get hot chocolate there anyway so I guess it doesn't matter. I do love a good cup in the afternoon though. I have been watching Food*Network all day and am in a cooking kick. Jeremiah put steaks out to thaw this morning (he let me sleep in today, such a sweetie) and I am dying to make something special with them. Of course, when i find the PERFECT recipe on the TV they said it too darn fast for me to catch, so I'm just going to let Jeremiah cook the wonderful steaks (they're Yummi Meat steaks. THEY ARE AMAZING!)

Oh and, yes, I did stop being a vegetarian. It's too hard to do while I live in a household that eats nothing but meat, so I might persue it when I am out on my owm, but for now it's a no-go.

this is a website with delicious looking coffee recipes! I am def going to try them out :)

Chocolate Brown

Lately, I cannot get enough of brown nail polishes. Because I have no job, therefore no money, I have to have it on my wish list (or unless I can ask Jeremiah to get me some lol).
Anywho, these are the browns I would LOVE to have from OPI.
