Pampered Sunday

Good morning and good night. It's the last Sunday (and day) of September, and that can only mean one thing: Football.

Sunday night football is in full swing. Week 4 is among us, and although I am part of, not one, but two Fantasy Football Leagues, a girl still need some pampering.

I normally don't do my nails very often, due to my profession (baggage handler at the local airport) but mostly because of laziness. Then I discovered that Sunday night football is the perfect time slot to give a little TLC to my digits.


Tonight in the spirit of Fall, we're going with a deep eggplant color by wet n wild called Disturbia. This is my go to palette for Fall, not too girly but goes with all the wonder autumnal hues that make you wanna grab a cup of cider. To add a little sparkle, I had few little floral nails stickers my girlfriend gave me a few years back.

I feel like I have difficulty with picking the right nail color. Since I work outside with my hands I tend to keep my nails very short. After all, we don't want any broken nails while lugging bags. I also have wide fingernails, so I feel like I need to choose the right color. I would love to do those elaborate designs but I need to find a steady hand to work on such a limited canvas. Maybe Pampered Sundays will give me to opportunity to practice.

I worked for 2 hours tonight and got prepped for work and decided to throw some make up on to have a little fun. My go to is Victoria's Secret Wet/ Dry eye shadows. You know, the one's at the check out line? Love them. Charcoal eyeliner, extra mascara and bronzer. Last but not least a lip gloss that's a shade darker than I normally wear, just for a pop of color and another Fall tie-in.

My hair is long and can be unruly, so when I take a shower before work I like to do something with it since it takes forever to dry. Today was double half-french braids pulled back into a mid-height bun. Little bit of beer garden wench, little bit of ballerina.

Braided and swept up

Gorgeous Sunday night. Getting a little chilly, almost chili weather. While boyfriend was watching the game and bundled under the blankets, he was nice enough to take the old polish off my toe nails while my aubergine beauties were drying. What a sweetheart.


Happy Pampered Sundays!
