{weekend} lovelies
Nicole and I thought we would bring you something new….
Throughout the week we both spend time researching for our posts and browsing the web.
During this process, we come across many things we think would be interesting, inspiring, or just plain beautiful to share with you.
Each Saturday morning we thought we’d bring to you our finest picks of the web for that week!
A little mental vacation when you secure a moment of peace to yourself…
We hope you enjoy {weekend} lovelies….

Glamorous Nail Polish
I have an addiction! Well a healthy one at that.
I love nail polish! I have loved it for some time.
It is one of my “Single Secret Behaviors” that I have carried with me for sometime.
I have always enjoyed and spent far too long looking over choices when getting a pedicure.
When my husband and I decided to cut back on expenses, I thought why not invest in a good polish?
One that was pretty and had less chemicals than the average polish.
Yes they do cost a couple dollars more than the drug store polish, but they last longer
and it looks like a professional Mani Pedi.
I have listed some of my favorites as of this moment
{Thanks to my friend Erica who shares in this passion}!
These brands can be found at your local beauty supply stores
as well as Target {love}.
These are perfect gifts for friends, as they are some of my favorite things.
A little ribbon and a little note “For Your Mistle Toes”
And voila, a beautiful yet, simple gift!
Enjoy!
What Is Beauty?
{Photo via: Love Fall Fashion & Beauty: Celebrity Quotes: What Is Beauty?}
“The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows. The beauty of a woman grows with the passing years.”
Audrey Hepburn
“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.”
Marilyn Monroe
“Beauty, to me, is about being comfortable in your own skin. That, or a kick-ass red lipstick”
Gwyneth Paltrow
“People often say that ‘beauty is in the eye of the beholder,’ and I say that the most liberating thing about beauty is realizing that you are the beholder. This empowers us to find beauty in places where others have not dared to look, including inside ourselves.”
Salma Hayek
“Beauty is how you feel inside, and it reflects in your eyes. It is not something physical.”
Sophia Loren
“I just think happiness is what makes you pretty. Period. Happy people are beautiful. They become like a mirror, and they reflect that happiness.”
Drew Barrymore
“The key to beauty is always to be looking at someone who loves you, really.”
Julia Roberts
Mantra…
