Crackle Junkie Looks Forward to Being Cold.

That's right. I admit it. I'm addicted to Crackle. Some know it by its street name, Shatter. All I know is that I love it and I need it in EVERY color!!!! If you are confused, I am talking about Shatter/Crackle Nail Polish. I believe OPI came out with it first and now you can find all kinds of brands and colors out there. Its a 'crackling' top coat polish you apply over a contrasting color and it looks FABULOUS (Hence the addiction). I bought a black one first and now I have white, and pink crackle. What I love about it is, that it looks uber cool, in my opinion, and the color combinations are endless.
Hiding my Junkie Identity while simultaneously showing off my beautiful addiction! Pa-Zow!
Seriously?!?!?! What's not to love about CRACKLE???

Check out the video on Opi's website...it shows the magic of Shatter for you Crackle Virgins... go to http://www.opi.com/ and click on the Shatter image to see the video. Press play and be amazed.

Now, on to other topics....
One of the best things about being half way through summer is looking forward to FALL FASHION!!! Yipiee! Chic, cozy sweaters with amazing boots and deep rich colors... love it! Although the summers in Edmonton are just a fleeting moment in time, I'm still excited for fall (and I'll bitch and moan like everyone else in this city when fall is here and I'm wondering where summer went...).
Some of you may not know, but I sell Avon since I don't have a real job. LOL. Mostly I sell Avon to myself, but hey, I try. Anyway, in about a month's time there will be the most amazing handbag for sale and I am soooooooo pumped! It is, get this, GREEN SUEDE! How amazing is that? Anyone who knows me, knows how I feel about the color green (LOVE). And suede? Dude, I am all over it!
Gorge.
After thinking about Fall and clothes, I decided to troll around on http://www.style.com/ for an eternity and found some amazing stuff. Number One amazing thing I found out was that VERSACE IS DOING AN H&M COLLECTION THIS FALL! *GASP!* I need to find the dates for this launch stat.
Number two amazing stuff I found, was the uber cute Star Dresses at Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2011 RTW. I first saw one of the dresses on Britney Spears on the Harper's Bazaar cover back in March (which she looks amazing in)
The collection is a 50-50 mix of 80s Madonna/Menswear inspired looks and Star Dresses. But there's just something so cute about these darn stars all over the dresses... I love it!

Amazing Thing number Three that I found, was that not only were the clothes at Victoria Beckham beautiful, but the BOOTS! Oh My! I LOVE how they are so tall and kind of loose up top and how there is no leg showing on all of the looks.

Random Topic:
I saw this on my banana this evening and was intrigued:
I thought perhaps this was the address for a 'naughty' site... Bananas After "Dark"... hmmm.
Nope. Just recipes, and tips on how to grill a banana. That sounds kind of gross, but this recipe sounds GOOD (maybe when I am not pregnant anymore I will celebrate with one of these...):

Did I really just say that I would celebrate not being pregnant with a Dirty Banana????? I think I've been sniffing too much Crackle...

  4. Awwwww Thanks Griz!!!
    Yeah, Crackle is seriously so fun to even watch dry! LOL! Ok, NOW I sound like a crackhead!

    If you go to the Avon website you can probably order the bag and get it sent to you! If you do decide to do this let me know, because if you enter my phone number as your 'rep' I get credit for the sale! LOL

  5. Thanks Al, I'll check out Avon's web site, and if I do order one I'll make sure to use you.

    I've thought about starting a blog, but I don't have time, also I'm terrible at writing...I'll leave that for you, in the mean time, I'll just reading yours. It's so fun!!! xoxox
