Sprinkles Cupcakes

On this sunny and warm Sunday morning my friend Rochelle and I made our way over to Sprinkles Cupcakes in Beverly Hills to get ourselves a sugar fix. Sprinkles Cupcakes are to. die. for. Don't believe me? Have a lookie-loo for yourself.
Red Velvet and The King.
Rochelle got the Red Velvet cupcake with cream cheese frosting.
And I got The King, which is a banana cake cupcake with creamy peanut butter frosting. It's named after Elvis and his favorite peanut butter and banana sandwich. Now, I looove me a peanut butter and banana sandwich but this cupcake was amazingly delicious. The frosting was sooo good that even after I finished my cupcake I couldn't pass up devouring a Frosting Shot. Everyone know that the frosting is the best part of the cupcake so I took the girl at the counter's suggestion and got me a Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting Shot.
MMmmMMmMmMMMmMmmMmMMmm!!!
Annnnd, to make my adventure over to Sprinkles Cupcakes that much more fun, I had to go in theme with, what else, CUPCAKE NAILS!!!
Now what flavors are these you ask? Classic Yellow Cake with Raspberry Cream Cheese Frosting, Chocolate Fudge Brownie with Sweet Strawberry Frosting, Mint Chocolate Chip with Bittersweet Chocolate Ganache, and Pure Strawberry with Sweet Buttercream Frosting.
NOM NOM NOM!!!
Happy Sun Day!

Pink Glitter Gradient

Too early to start the Valentine's Day manis? Not for me!! I used Color Club Lazer Pink as the tip color and then did 4 different layers of Sinful Pinky Glitter in a gradient from the tips to the base of my nails. I wish my nails weren't so stained and that the glitter was a bit more opaque. I didn't turn out exactly how I wanted so I might have to try this again. Yay for Valentine's Day manis!!

It's a warm day in So Cal :0)
