My Favorite Christmas Movies

There are a ton of Christmas movies out there, but when it comes to my favorites, I sort of have an odd bunch. I grew up with most of these and have loved them more and more over the years. These are some that I have to watch every year, no matter what. Without further ado, here are my Top 5 Favorite Christmas Movies!

5. Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer


#5 was a tie between Rudolph & It's a Wonderful Life. I usually lose patience while sitting through It's a Wonderful life though, so Rudolph it is.

4. Elf



There are several times when I feel like Buddy the Elf during Christmastime. This movie just makes me so very happy.

3. Christmas Eve on Sesame Street



I grew up watching this movie every Christmas Eve with my family. Unfortunately, I think we've lost the VHS tape of it, but I found it on YouTube here! It still warms my heart every time I watch it.

2.  Unaccompanied Minors



One underrated Christmas movie I'd say. It's a silly movie for sure, but it sort of makes me want to be stuck in an airport for Christmas.

1. Eloise at Christmastime



This is my all time favorite Christmas movie. I love everything about this movie. The songs, the love stories, Eloise, and Julie Andrews of course. Again, it makes me want to live in a hotel during Christmas. And it really makes me want to visit New York at Christmas. If you've never seen this one, I highly suggest you do!

On My Nails: Orly Rage

I've been wanting a rose gold polish for a while, and I've heard good things about Orly Rage, so I picked it up at Ulta about a month ago. Now, this isn't exactly the go-to color that I'd think of for summer, however, I think it serves as a really great neutral. It's a lovely shade,  it's very flattering, and it isn't as distracting as a bright blue or hot pink. I still don't think it is exactly what I was looking for in the rose gold department. I want something a little more rosy; unless you are in sunlight, this often pulls more gold or even silver at times. I'm also till having the weird bubbles in my polish as well and I'm convinced it's the top coat I'm using. Sorry if that's a bit distracting!




^^ See the stupid bubbles? GRRR.

So 2 questions:
1. Have you found the perfect rose gold nail polish?
2. What are your recommendations for a base or top coat?
