Picking a nail color can quite honestly feel like the most important decision of your life… for about two weeks until the color chips and you have to do it all over again. I look for cute nail designs and color inspiration because c’mon, who else feels like they have their entire life together when their nails are done? With a fresh set of nails, I feel like the unstoppable bad bitch that I am.

1. Baby pink

This is currently what’s on my nails. I love it so much because it’s simple with a pop of color. It feels clean and classy


2. Matte black

I think this look is SO cool! I've always wanted to do it.

3. One different colored finger

Typically, the ring finger is the different colored one, but I’ve seen looks that have the index finger or the middle finger has a different color. In reality, it can be any finger you want!

4. A glossy nude

Ugh. My go – to. I love a good nude color, whether it be a nude lipstick or a nude nail polish. It goes with every look and still makes your nails look stunning!

5. A glittery champagne

I. Love. Glitter. This look can be really unique for any event that you have, whether it be a formal or even New Year's Eve!


6. Classic red

Timeless. Classy. Need I say more?

7. Chrome

This is a newer nail trend that I’ve seen on social media recently but it looks so badass. If you can find a nail salon that can do this, I think it’s worth a try!

8. Marble

Ugh, the ultimate aesthetic. Marble phone cases, laptop cases, and a matching set of marble nails. I’m not sure how exactly people accomplish this look on their nails, but it sure does look cool!

9. Simple white

Personally, I like this color on my nails because I'm super fair-skinned, and this cobalt white makes me look like I've got a small tan going on, and I dig the summer sun.

10. Ombré

This is more of a look that you can achieve yourself, instead of going to a salon. I’ve tried this before with a cosmetic sponge and then stamping it onto my nails. It turned out pretty sweet!


11. Olive green

I tried this color for the first time around Thanksgiving time and I was in love the second my nails were dry. It’s such a different color that people usually wouldn’t think about putting on their fingernails but it was honestly one of my favorite colors that I’ve ever chosen!

At the end of the day, they are just fingernails. While it may not matter to the rest of the world what your nails look like, it matters to you. Having painted nails is such a simple way to feel dressed up, and boost your confidence. Because c’mon, who else feels like they have their entire life together when their nails are done? I know I do. Which reminds me, I need to make my next appointment. Treat yo-self.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
