OK, I lied. I'm like that.

So much for taking the weekend off blogging, eh?

I can't quit you! LOL

So last night my "boys" Jordan and his friend Ead, took me back to Evolved to get my nose piercing changed out. Seems like hanging out on OSU campus at the piercing place is becoming an every other weekend thing for us!

We stopped at Five Guys first:



It was a beautiful night and so we sat outside for awhile watching the masses on High Street.

Then we headed to Evolved, where I got the original piercing removed and a new one put in. The one they pierce you with has a longer post on it to accomodate any swelling that occurs, and if I tilted my head back even slightly you could see it and it was driving me crazy. Always looked like I had a silver booger in my nose. Not my best look. Plus the little diamond was bezel set, so the silver around it almost looked dirty.

Now I have a smaller post that you can barely see, (unless you are really looking up my nose, in which case you are WAY too close and need to back the hell up!) and the diamond is prong set so it's much blingier. (Blingier? Nothing like making up words first thing on a Saturday, eh?)

I realized you really can't see it in this picture, but it does look really good:



I also got a little light blue one, slightly bigger stone, for when I feel like being a rebel. LOL (And FYI, this picture was taken at 11:30 last night, thus the no makeup and bad hair day!)

OK honest opinion...new glasses....good or dorky? I just got them this week. My other ones were the rimless kind so you really didn't even notice them on my face. I wanted to go a completely different route this time, and I like the trendy little dark rectangular shaped ones that so many people have right now. I tried darker ones on but they were too much for me, so I went with this "plum" color. I figured since I'm not a redhead anymore, they wouldn't clash too badly! And the frames are big enough to distract from the perpetual bags under my eyes!

Happy Saturday, friends!

Well, Julie girl..first off, I can't see your diamond but since I have a granddaughter that has one, which is so so cute, I can imagine that yours is cute, too.
Next, I wish to hell I could look that good without makeup...and your hair...precious.
Next, I LOVE these glasses on you. Just perfect...
Now that I've buttered you all up...can I borrow Five ?

I've been toying with a nose piercing for months...I haven't brought myself to do it yet, but I might soon! You are inspiring me :)

Lynn said...

Just so you know the nose piercing is bold and inspiring!! You are continually challenging me (in my mind) to step out of my own tiny little self built box. I too went from rimless to dark rectangle frames this year and have been continually suprised at the people that compliment me on them. But being the chicken I am I bought rimless also!!

Yes on the plum-rimmed glasses. Can't see the nose stud, but that basically means I like it. Anything too obtrusive in the nose area doesn't apeal to me, so your piercing looks good. :)

The glasses look so good one you. You look like a youngster!

The nose piercing was hard to see so we'll just have to wait until you give us another picture!

Don't know what 5 Guys is but it sounds like it might be something good!

Wow, you didn't last one day. LOL

Glasses look GREAT and I can see the nose piercing and I like it. Very understated, classy, tasteful. :)
