Some blog link love January 9, 2011

  • Since I have been a little obsessed with the idea of nail polish lately I ran across this post from “Sassy’s Stamping Stampede”, what a mouthful. I had never heard of Konad nail stamps but now I kinda want some. Probably for more subtle patterns but hers are still neat looking. Seriously, I want houndstooth patterned nails.

Closets! A couple of people recently posted some good closet posts:

Jill at Good Life for Less posted “Casa Good Life: My Closet!”:

And Kendi Everyday posted “Create a working closet”:

Both blogs have excellent ways to store and display necklaces and other jewelry.

I’m a bit jealous since the house I’m in has negative closet space (older home) but I’ve been looking at wardrobes / armoires as an option to get more more clothes space and thus more organized.

Some of the products mentioned in this video:

I disagree with the bit at the end about sunscreen. Many American’s are stuck in an office not getting out in the sun to get enough natural Vitamin D. You don’t want to burn, that’s bad, so there is a time and place for sunscreen. But this obsessive “you must wear it daily” is harming people. I’ll do a separate post next summer about eco-friendly sunscreen for when you want to hit the beach or go for a long hike.

Loving Mustard and a link to a Budget Fashion Blog

whatiwore_223b

I am loving the color mustard lately but haven’t found anything in that color that fits me yet. Meanwhile, the budget fashionista or Budgetnista for short has this wonderful outfit posted. She’s really pulled off a look I wouldn’t have expected to work but I think it does. Seriously, mustard and teal/aqua, short pants and booties. Who’d a thunk?

Actually I’m not even sure this outfit would look good on anyone else but I like it on her. Go check out her blog for the full details on where she bought each piece (even if you’re only in love with part of it.) 🙂
