The past several years have been all about skinny jeans, but as we move into 2015, boot cut and flare jeans are gaining momentum. This means the formally “so three years ago” style is acceptable again; and may soon take over the number one denim style spot from the skinnies!

Since boot cut and flare jeans are making a comeback, I thought I would wear this pair of boot cut jeans to get myself back into the silhouette. Although I feel like skinny jeans make me look thinner, the boot cut jean is more comfortable. I also like the 1970’s retro vibe of boot cut jeans.

I am not ready to ditch my skinnies, they really do take about ten pounds off my 5’4″ frame, but a little bit of comfort and vintage flair mixed in never hurt anyone 😉 After all, I am a little bored of my skinnies, despite their slimming properties. What do you think of boot cut or flare jeans? Are you ready to rock the style or do you want to stick with your skinnies?

New Years Eve 2015 is almost here! That means it is time to find the perfect, sparkling dress to ring in the new year!

2014 was a fabulous year, therefore, it is safe to assume that 2015 will be equally fabulous! Since 2015 will be dazzling, why not dazzle in sparkles! This new years eve, look for sparkling dresses in sequins, and fun, shimmering fabrics. Also look out for texture; which adds dimension and lighthearted fun to any garment. Love that!

I found a few fabulous New Years Eve dresses around the web and assembled them below. Now, I need to pick one!

Nars Barents Sea nail polish winter 2015 review

The winter 2015 nail polish collection from Nars is absolutely amazing. All three colors, Alogonquin, Sherwood and Barents Sea, offer beautiful pigmentation in purple and blue hues. Love that!

Nars Barents Sea is a fabulous cobalt blue nail polish which includes a vibrant, shiny sheen. Barents Sea by Nars offers depth; making other luxury cobalt nail polishes look dull in comparison. This is the ultimate blue nail polish for blue nail polish fans. I am in love!

I tested out Nars Barents Sea nail polish with two coats of color and one base coat. It lasted a full seven days before chipping. Love that! 

Nars Barents Sea nail polish is from the “Laced with Edge” nail polish collection by Nars for the winter season. It is limited edition and selling out fast! This is definitely the perfect cobalt nail polish hue to own as we move into 2015. Although Marsala is the color of the year, shades of blue are very important colors for the spring/summer 2015 season. This means Barents Sea by Nars is a great nail polish to be wearing as we move from winter into resort and into spring. It will transition easily and work well with the upcoming, warm weather color palette. Love it!

You can still find Barents Sea by Nars online here and here. Move on it fast, it is selling out!
