my favorite iphone apps

i am a proud new iphone owner (yay!!) and i have discovered my go-to apps...


around me is a great app, it finds restaurants, stores, pretty much anything that is around you! perfect for when i'm in a new area or can't decide where to eat out at :)



instagram is a must have! i love the filters that is built into the app and seeing everyone else's cool photos.

fusioncam is also a cool photo app. you can blend two photos, which can create some awesome photos!

sketches 2 scrapbook is a wonderful app for any scrapper. it gives you a ton of sketches to give you inspiration for your next layout.

and my guilty pleasure-stylish sprint. this game is addicting! beware!!

collection

i have started many collections in my lifetime, but i have only kept up one the whole time...my flat penny collection. i have lots and lots! i get them from everywhere and love the memories they keep.
pennies5
i have a total of 5 penny books, all of them full :)
pennies4
i try to keep them organized by place/location of where i got it. besides the disneyland books, there is a good mix of places in each book.
pennies3
this was the first book i started with my sister and i'm pretty sure this was my first flat penny. i remember being so excited because the colossus at six flags was my first roller coaster ride ever!
pennies2
i also collect flat nickels (middle) and flat quarters (right). i don't have too many of these because they are rare to find and more expensive to make, but really cool since they are much bigger than a penny.

these four are probably my most treasured pennies. the one on the left from colossal caves in tucson is a special memory for me-it was one of those fun adventures with my parents that i loved and will always remember. the next one from birch aquarium in san diego was also a lovely memory of a simple day in sd-those were some of the best vacations. the third is probably my most treasured since it was given to me by my grandpa. i love that he thought of me when he was on vacation and got it for me (it's about the simple things sometimes). the last from seaport village is special just because i truly do love san diego so much and seaport is one of my favorite places there.
as you can see these simple flat pennies hold so much love and memories and i will probably always collect them throughout my life. i see no reason not to.

new fashion love

this season is full of wonderful colors, fun accessories, and cute styles! one of my favorite is pretty colored shorts! i remember wearing different colored shorts when i was younger, and i'm glad that the style is back in. i think the fact that the colors are some what muted (or 'vintage' as some describes it) makes the shorts that much cuter!


so far i only have one set of mango colored shorts, but i plan on getting more soon! what are your favorite styles this season?!

i love nails!!

so i paint my nails a lot. like every few days. i love it :) i decided to share my favorite polishes and must have supplies.

nails-8nails-7
stickers are underestimated these days. they add a simple accent and are just cute!
nails-6
probably the coolest way to do nails. they stay on forever too! just wish you could use them one at a time, like for accent nails, but they dry up if you leave the package open :(
nails-5
these have been my go to colors this season...quite the mix, i know.
nails-4
i love this combo. and how can you deny a hello kitty shaped bottle?!
nails-3
my must have supplies include...
1. Q-tips
2. my favorite base and top coat combo
3. a wonderful tool: perfect for touch ups
4. love this tool...not sure what it is technically called, but it cleans under nails super well and it quite handy.
5. this is awesome file. it has four different sides that file, shape, buff and shine! wow!
nails-2nails
(this is what my nails are like now...for a few days anyhow)

ever since my facebook got hacked and i got tangled in a money scam (don't worry, i didn't lose anything!) i have been anti-social media. i deleted my facebook and vowed to never look back (don't know how long that will last, ha).
Tumblr_lgh0s5xl9u1qf76m1o1_500_large
i still don't have a facebook, BUT i did start up my twitter again and started a tumblr too! look at me go :) so all of you social media junkies out there should definitely follow me. i promise to follow you too :) go ahead, click on those links on the side...

it's on repeat.

the 'sign no more' mumford and sons album is by far the best album i've heard in a long time. if you haven't heard it yet, i highly suggest it.
