"Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given--when Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes." 

~ Joan Winmill Brown

I just wanted to wish everyone who celebrates it a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.  I'm so grateful for all of you, and I hope you had a fabulous day and I hope you all have an amazing year.  I appreciate each and every one of you that reads my blog, follows me, and leaves encouraging comments on my posts.  You're truly the reason that I do what i do here on misscouture17.

Just a quick update on January 26 2012, i'll be up and blogging next week guys, I have lots of great posts just waiting to get published, so, get pumped! :)  

NOTN: Sephora by OPI 'Never Enough Shoes'

Sephora by OPI 'Never Enough Shoes' - 3 coats, OPI top coat. (starting to chip!)

 Hey Everyone,
On Thursday I went to an event where i wore a medium blue dress and silver heels.  I spent hours pouring over my nail polish collection trying to find the perfect shade to wear that would work with my somewhat sweet, cool toned outfit.  I decided to go with something a little edgy, and the shade chosen for my Nail of the Night (NOTN)? Never Enough Shoes from Sephora by OPI.

This is definitely not your average black nail polish!  It has gold and silver micro glitter in it which is definitely very visible when it's on your fingers.  My only problem with this polish is the horrible formulation!  The first coat was extremely streaky, sheer, watery, and looked more like a mucky brown colour.  It took 3 coats to make this black shimmer opaque.  So, bad formulation but love the colour!

Get The Look: Kristen Stewart - chic and glamorous

Hey Everyone!
If there's one celebrity I am not a fan of, it's K Stew; however, I love her makeup look in this picture, it's very glamorous and dramatic. so today's get the look is going for a look along these lines, including dramatic brows and eyes and a subtle pinky-nude lip.

Christmas List 2011!

Hey everyone!
So, a few days ago I wrote my December wish list, and you all asked to see my Christmas list for this year.  I didn't need anything too big, so I mainly asked for small things, but I hope this post helps all of you trying to make up your own Christmas lists!

33 Questions Get to Know Me tag!

Hey everyone!

I feel like it was just yesterday that I wrote my last tag post, but I recently found this post and thought it was just so fun, I couldn't pass it up!

1. Is it cute when guys kiss you on your forehead? Of course! I think it's the sweetest thing ever!
2. A big poofy dress or a short party dress? Depends on the occasion, but usually a short party dress
3. Are diamonds a girl's best friend? Definitely
4. Is your hair up or down today? up in a top knot, currently!
5. Do you straighten your hair? Pretty much all the time.  I still haven't found the perfect curling wand for me.
