Tangerine Nails, Lemon Linguini & More

Posted by Siofan | Friday May 6, 20119 comments

This weekend, we're thinking about doing a bit of spring cleaning, trying out a bright mani, and maybe a last minute something for mom...


Orange lips may have dominated the beauty conversation for a while now, but orange nails are quickly becoming all we talk about. This juicy tangerine-jelly OPI Axxium manicure we spotted on Beautygeeks has our mouth watering.


Before it gets too hot to cook inside, we're going to indulge in our favourite comfort food, pasta. This zesty lemon linguini recipe is a less heavy version perfect for our lighter spring appetite. Plus, you can count the ingredients Sweet Potato Chronicles used to make it on one hand, so it's easy to assemble.


Our clothes closet isn't the only storage in need of an overhaul when the seasons change—we're putting away our flannel sheets and heavy duvets and pulling out our cotton sheet sets and blankets. At Home with Kim Vallée shows us the best way to fold and store our sheets, so we won't have to dig for that missing pillowcase.


Had a busy week? If you're just running out to pick something up for mom now (or tomorrow, or Sunday morning...), Beauty Editor has some fun ideas in her video roundup of Mother's Day beauty gifts.


If your mother loves jewellery, this pretty Soixante Neuf necklace spotted by Coco & Lowe features a clear glass piece that can hold a photo and also can be engraved, a perfect keepsake for her.

I'm the It Girl chose this linen dress as her Item of the Week while she was in Mexico City surrounded by Aztec-inspiration. The Zero + Maria Cornejo Zazi dress features a pastiche of prints that mimics the same geometric freneticness of that Mexican-born print.














What are you inspired to buy or try this weekend?

I always loose my pillow cases. So, I'll take any new organizational tips Kim can give me!
@jskim07- agreed, I like the little pop of yellow - makes the orange even more fun.

I love the necklace. It's very classy plus it can be very sentimental since you can put a photo or engraving on it. A really good gift for mom.

I love the sheet folding session and the linen closet organization tips from @KimVallee! I'm going to try this weekend. My fitted sheets always end up looking like ass despite my best efforts to fold them. Am also drooling over the lemon linguine from Sweet Potato Chronicles. Yumm!

Mmm...that lemon linguini looks delicious. I also think the glass lockets that Coco&Lowe;spotted are super cute as well.

Wow, I love those nails! I have to admit I was never taken with orange lips. They seem so man-repellant to me. But that nail colour looks good enough to eat!

Also, how amazing does that linguine look? I know what I'm making tonight!

I love the thin yellow cross going on in those orange nails! It's so cute and pop-art-y!
