Trust Fund Beauty Elegantly Wasted … curated on LTK

They're not perfect, but I'm improving! 💅🏻 Anyone else out there do their own nails? I just started doing acrylics and it's a challenge but I love having long nails 😍 Everything I used is linked via @liketoknow.it and is WAY cheaper than going to a salon. You can thank me later 😘 http://liketk.it/2p82d #liketkit

Happy Friday! I know you’re probably counting down the minutes until 5 - lucky for you I have a new blog post to help pass the time featuring some goodies from @charmingcharlie! Special shoutout to Charming Charlie for sending me these gorgeous pieces to style 😘 | valerybrennan.com or click the link in my bio! | http://liketk.it/2r6Ln #liketkit @liketoknow.it

Throwing it back to this look because I love it and I haven’t shown my face here in a while! Last week @beautyandthepleats challenged me to share five random facts about myself, so here they are! Leave a random fact about yourself in the comments :)

1️⃣ I have loved Batman for as long as I can remember - also I used to have a recurring dream with the Jack Nicholson Joker and it was TERRIFYING.
2️⃣ I can’t smell skunks. I think I can smell everything else, just not skunks.
3️⃣ Two of my biggest regrets are not seeing Prince and David Bowie in concert - I had a chance for each of them (separately of course) and passed it up thinking “I’ll just go another time.”
4️⃣ I have six tattoos and I love them all but I regret my Deathly Hallows one. I mean I love it, and I love Harry Potter, but I hate that the tattoo artist did a weird lightning bolt and I was too nervous to correct him. Not a good time to be passive, Valery.
5️⃣ Hanson is one of my favorite bands, I have seen them live tons of times and I think they’re honestly really great. #liketkit @liketoknow.it http://liketk.it/2r3UR

Happy Friday, y’all! I scored these cutout mules at my local @buffaloexchange for $25! They’re a great dupe for the popular Sam Edelman pair you might have seen floating around Insta lately. I’ve linked the Sam Edelman mules (on sale for $65) but I haven’t been able to find any other similar pairs online (sorry!) http://liketk.it/2qOA7 #liketkit @liketoknow.it

The best part about this look? You can recreate the whole thing for less than $75. No lie. The shorts are only $10! Shop it here, babes ---> http://liketk.it/2qNpR #liketkit @liketoknow.it Screenshot or 'like' this pic to shop the product details from the new LIKEtoKNOW.it app, available now from the App Store! | 📷: @stephaniedrenka
