"The gloom of the world is but a shadow; behind it, yet within our reach, is JOY. Take joy." -Fra Giovanni
This blog is a scrapbook of sorts, somewhat inspired by the concept of the Victorian "commonplace book"; a random collection of bits and pieces collected, magpie-like, from my reading; little snippets of beauty and wisdom to help brighten the path of life's journey.
About Me
- lily
- I'm a total girly-girl with a taste for the unusual in make-up and nail polish. My beauty philosophy basically consists of the three G's - Girly, Goth, and Glittery. This makes for an odd mix sometimes, but it's me and I like it. I'm very shy but friendly (and I'm working on the shyness)and have an unquenchable passion for nail polish that I needed an outlet for - hence, yet another nail blog is born. Oh yeah, and I probably should mention that sometimes I use words like "hence" in everyday conversation before I can catch myself, unfortunately...
