oh, how PINTERESTing: 3

There is not much in this world that I enjoy as much as an awesome, new, silver ring (preferably adorned with  big turquoise rock)!

For today's PINTERESTing Wednesday, I wanted to share with you some of my favorites.

Linking up with the Vintage Apple for Pinteresting Wednesdays!

This one reminds me of my big sis - and I love the nails!

This inspires me to sneak out at lunch to stop by the Native American Jewelry Store down the road. 

Full of stones and treasures!

Have a fantastic Wednesday!

"Rock" on,

Jes

Back in the game!

After months of complaining about my Droid, I FINALLY got an iPhone :)

One of many advantages is that you can follow me on instagram! - jbarmstrong87. What is your favorite photo effect?!

Can't wait to see your photos :)

Date Night

Adam and I like to meet in the middle for Date Night on those long days when you just can't wait until the weekend for a nice dinner together and a warm hug :)

We stumbled upon one of our favorite places in Monroe, Ohio. About a 40 minute drive for the both of us.

The Red Onion Cafe is one of those breath of fresh air, diamond in the rough, sigh of relaxation type places in the middle of small town Ohio (I guess a lot of our towns are "small"). The website and exterior does not do it justice.

I ordered the Jumbo Shrimp and Crab Four Cheese Alfredo and let me tell ya! Incredible! I think I stopped between every bite to tell Adam how incredible it was.. in case he forgot.

Adam ordered the Hand-cut 12oz Choice Sirloin Strip Steak and he was a big fan as well.

Cheers to spontaneous date nights :)

Cheetah girls cheetah sistassss

Look what I did! I painted cheetah/ leopard whatever nails!

It was actually really simple. I painted the base a periwinkle and then dotted white spots followed by thin black outlines with a Sally Hansen paint pen.

Easy peasy! If you want, I can make a tutorial next time.

Nail obsessed,

Jes

Linking up with Michelle from The Vintage Apple to share with you my new obsession...

Tribal and flower print nails!!

If having beautiful long nails so that I can cover them with art isn't enough to stop biting my nails then I have lost all hope.

Some inspiration....

What nail trend are you obsessed with right now?

Next stop, CVS for some nail art pens ;)

P.S. Follow me on Pinterest to see these pins and more :)

Love Ever After

How beautiful is this series of photographs from Lauren Fleishman's Love Ever After collection. 

These are the things that dreams are made of.. Love Ever After.

"Everyday my wife expresses her love for me. She says, did I tell you how much I love you today? Everyday. Everyday she says that."

Happy Early Valentines Day

The Shins

After a 5 year-hiatus, The Shins is back with a new album to be released March 20th! 

If you managed to miss The Shins, even with the popularity of the Garden State Soundtrack, check out these classics. They are sure to lull you into a dream like state (or Garden State).

Enjoy!

These Are A Few Of My Favorite Things - Edition 2

Well, according to Groundhog Phil, there will be 6 more weeks of winter.

Whether or not you partake in this folklore tradition, here are a few of my favorite things about Winter...

At least I get 6 more weeks :)

But if someone could throw a beach in there... I would be forever grateful. Just sayin.
