I must admit I'm excited it's already August because it's my birthday month wooh! On August 14th, 2011 I will be OLD. Well, older than I'd like to be. I wish I could have frozen my age at 19. Or I'd go with popular belief and be "Forever 21". loool. Sorry I just had to, the joke was RIGHT there *hides face*. I am turning, wait for it...22! *confetti bursts into the air*
In the past, I always tried for a BIG birthday occasion but this year, I'm thinking mellow. Maybe it's because I have so much going around that inviting people many to my lovely city will be more heart-ache than anything. There are two of us after all. That's already a
Something that has caught my attention as a potential look for my birthday is the pointy nail trend. I saw it first on runways, then on my friends and then in Beyonce's run the world video. As an avid nail-biter (don't judge) I'm thinking of some acrylic nails and wondering if I should step into the wild side. Come on, I'm not getting tattoos or piercings, can I just get some dangerous nails. I wonder if I can cut my sugar and cream bread with the nails, would definitely save me some time eating breakfast. *side eye*
Honestly, the thing that bothers me about trends is the tendency to be overwhelming. Packed like a New York Subway train at rush-hour; everyone is squeezing to get on board. Take the color block trend, I was so excited for it, given it was already my style till I saw it stabbed, shot and hung! I'm even scared to color-block now tbh. I drift in and out of till.
Ok, back to Pointy nails!
Do I fall in, or stay out? *sigh* Decisions we have to make. And please don't laugh at my extent of adventure. You are looking at little Miss Paranoia.
And what happens when I have to go to work the next day? O_o
To point or not to point? That IS the question.

| Runway fierce but in real life O_o? |

| This I find a bit subtle and do-able |

| Not sure what my opinion on this is? |

looks pretty nice on Beyonce but I don't see myself rocking nails like that knowing my family or hubby would scream. It might actually look nice on ya...:=) Happy birthday in advance.

hahah! 'Stabbed, hung and Shot' yeahhh, that the point of trends..everyone jumps the bandwagon and then if falls and breaks down miserably. sighhhh. If your thinking twice about i say NO! I've seen this look on some of my friends, not bad...but somehow it looks better on the so-called 'celebs'
FYI - August babies ROCK!
