    congrats on doing it! it looks really cute! i'm glad i was allowed to have my friend with me when i got my eyebrow pierced, there's no way i would have been able to handle that big needle by myself.

    and that roadtrip sounds amazing! j and i are trying to save up for one from somewhere on the east coast to somewhere on the west coast, and then stay there for a few days before coming back. roadtrips are always fun.

    have a good weekend!

    SO ADORABLE! I have my nose pierced and I LOVE it. Yours is SO cute. And I think your July should include a trip To Minne. Or maybe that'll be August... yes, August 2009 will be just as fantastic.

    I freaking LOVE it. I bought a little teensy tiny stud at the Icing that was barely visible. I wore it for family occasions with the super conservatives. I'm talking small enough to pull through the hole (don't sleep with the small one in!). Beware of super big boogers. Sorry, it's true.

    Your roadtrip sounds SO exciting! That's on my bucket list. Maybe not this summer but eventually.

    So cute!! It looks great- and I totally recommend you get an invisible stud so you can keep it. I had to take mine out twice, and every time there's a little more scar tissue. Which means it sucks a LOT more to have it re-pierced. If you like it, keep it =)

    Have fun on your road trip! I definitely want to do that some day...hopefully someday soon!

    I moved to LA from Ohio in December and drove cross country, it's beautiful!

    I love it; it looks so good on you!

    And that roadtrip is perfect! Are you driving from Vegas to the grand canyon? Because you'll also pass the hoover dam. Maybe you could take a dam tour. (Vegas Vacation quote? Anyone?) But you better believe when you get to LA, I am driving my booty down there to meet you. Just let me know which days you are planning to be in LA.

    Awww, now Smokies? I live in the smokies! However, going to LA and the Grand Canyon would be fun.

    Love the piercing!

  • Hilary · 5 months ago
    Looks AWESOME!!! Congrats girl!
    And we will be right on your heels on the out west trip! We are doing the exact same thing, in three weeks! I can't stand it I'm so excited for you. I feel like we are living parallel lives or something. :)

    SO cute! You have the perfect nose for a piercing. I love it!

    It looks so cute!! Out of a tongue piercing, a variety of ear piercings, a belly button piercing and a fairly large tattoo, my nose piercing hurt the most!! It was a very quick decision for me as well - my best friend and I were in Germany and she said "I kinda wanna pierce my nose" and my response was "I'll do it if you do it" and then it was done.

    I've picked up clear "placeholders" at Claire's and those have worked okay - they're just a little harder to put in than metal. I've also used fishing line in a pinch...

    oh it looks so good! i've been contemplating that for a while, but i wear glasses so not sure how that would work...
    i had my lip pierced in my early twenties and it grossed me out soooooo much that the needle was hollow... it still kinda grosses me out when I think about it.
    i love road trips!!! my hubby and i are going to vegas for a little over a week, in two weeks (!!!) and while we're there we're going to rent a car and drive around to the surrounding states as much as we can.
    hope your trip is amazing!

    Oooh I like it!
  • Elly · 5 months ago
    Oh hurrah! Your piercing looks awesome! I was contemplating a facial piercing too, but alas I'm customer facing and I don't know how stable my job would be if I got one done. You look great though, yay! :)

    Very daring, Ashley! (I mean the bathroom part--hee hee, they apologized about it.)
  • sarah marie p · 5 months ago
    Ohmygosh, I'm SO EXCITED that i might get to meet you ashley-veggie!!!!! YAYYYYY!!!!!!

    Your road trip sounds amazing!

    Congrats on having the guts to pierce your nose! Very cute, lady! I love my nose piercing - when I worked in a restaurant and jamba juice I just took it out during my shift and then put it back in afterwards. (It did kind of close up in just a few hours and hurt putting it back in, so you might want to actually get the clear stud.)

    Color me jealous! I had my noise pierced for about a year, had to take it out for work. Not a day goes by where I don't miss mine.

    Enjoy your road trip. It sounds like an adventure!
  • Lacey Bean · 5 months ago
    Yay that's awesome!! I am torn between wanting to get mine pierced or not... I wouldn't have to take it out for work, but I just dont know! I just took my belly button ring out though, so maybe I'll get that done to replace it!
  • Andrea · 5 months ago
    You look so great! And how cute were the tattoo guys to you. Precious. I've always sort of wanted one, but not bad enough to go get one, you know?

    I hope I get to meet you when you're in LA.
  • Allie · 5 months ago
    It really is adorable! Congrats!
  • Ashley · 5 months ago
    I love it! I've always wanted to get my nose pierced, but have never had the guts to do it. It looks great on you!
  • Tempewytch · 5 months ago
    The nose stud doesn't look as though it is standing out too much so I think you will be fine with it (and remember you need to keep the original stud in for 6 weeks to let the hole heal without healing over)
  • Jess · 5 months ago
    It looks great! Go you!
  • Ashley · 5 months ago
    It looks so cute, lady!!
  • Kate · 5 months ago
    I'm so excited about your trip! We did a road trip when we got married -- we pretty much hit all the places you're hitting (except ABQ), so let me know if you need any tips or suggestions! If you can, try to fit in Sequoia National Forest/Kings Canyon. Also, we are headed to the Smoky Mountains next week along with Savannah, Charleston and the Outer Banks. I love July, too!
  • Katelin · 5 months ago
    oh yay it looks really cute on you. love it.
  • your wishcake. · 5 months ago
    Love love love the sparkle on your nose. Greatest ever. :) As I've said before, one of my goals this summer is to get mine pierced, and I'm totally going to wig out over it but I know I'll love it once it's done.

    Aaaaand we're meeting up when you're in LA, right? Seriously. There are quite a few LA bloggers that would flip out if they got the chance to meet you and your pretty face. (Myself included.)

    Nice!
