Color Of The week!

OPI has a new collection out!

It's called Venice and you can check it out here.

I used some restraint and only picked one color.

Worth A Pretty Penne

This was a very quick drying polish. Unfourtunatly it

hasn't worn as well as most of my OPI polishes do. 

None the less, the color is beautiful on. Kind of a 

rose gold.

Monday's Manicure

Hey there!

Super quick update on the weekly mani. :) 

Brought to you by OPI  2 coats of My Vampire is Buff

2 coats of Who Needs a Prince (for a gasoline finish)

And then finally Sugar Rush by Milani on my ring finger.

Love that stuff! It's like fun-fetti!

I'm Staring to new summer reads.....

Yes.... I picked them both based on their cover! (oh, the shame)

From the back of the book:

Three women’s lives are about to change because of a few delicate pieces of china...When Jenny Davis comes across a beautiful vintage tea set at an outdoor market in the English countryside, she’s convinced it’s fate. A young bride on a budget, she has her heart set on a vintage tea-party theme for her wedding—and the gorgeous gold-rimmed china before her is perfect. There’s only one problem. Two other women have fallen in love with it, too. So they come up with a solution: They’ll share it.

They establish a sisterhood, sharing the ups and downs of their lives—from broken hearts and weddings, to family drama and career dreams. When a figure from Jenny’s past threatens to ruin her big day, Alison’s teenage daughter pushes her to the limit, and Maggie’s romantic life is thrown into turmoil, the members of the Vintage Teacup Club band together—proving their newfound friendship will last a lifetime.

AND

From the back of the book:

Brokenhearted and still mourning the loss of her husband, Heidi travels with Abbott, her obsessive-compulsive seven-year-old son, and Charlotte, her jaded sixteen-year-old niece, to the small village of Puyloubier in the south of France, where a crumbling stone house may be responsible for mending hearts since before World War II.

There, Charlotte confesses a shocking secret, and Heidi learns the truth about her mother’s “lost summer” when Heidi was a child. As three generations collide with one another, with the neighbor who seems to know all of their family skeletons, and with an enigmatic Frenchman, Heidi, Charlotte, and Abbot journey through love, loss, and healing amid the vineyards, warm winds and delicious food of Provence. Can the magic of the house heal Heidi’s heart, too?

Have you started your summer reading list? 

Do share!

Hello Loves!

Are you having a good week so far?

I do hope so!

I was feeling a little wild this weekend when I was

doing my nails.... Can you tell?

Don't these look so impressive? But they were so easy! 

Here is the link for the YouTube tutorial.

Seriously, easy peasy!

So yes! I do think that you can be 50 and wear fun nails.

Both of these colors you've seen before. 

Gold is Got my Grove back by Ginger + Liz

The wine color is Romeo & Joliet by OPI  

This one is a frosted dup for Pantone's color of the Year Marsala.

You will being seeing this color again... and again .... and again.....    :)

Monday's Manicure...Oh! Christmas Tree

One last little Christmas fun mani. 

I did this with my dotting tool....

And a small village. :) 

And THAT, my friends is why I rarely get rid of a polish. :) 

P.S. and by the way.... 

IT's ALMOST CHRISTMAS!

Monday's Manicure

Hello my pretties!

Today's mani is brought to you by Nars and the color Disco Inferno.

This color is so cool! Its a holographic color.

You look at it one way and it's green, another way and its gray or purple.

Sometimes it is blue.

It took about 4 coats to get the opacity that I like,

but it lasted well. And it actually goes with more than you might think. 

Hope you are enjoying your week!

Monday's Manicure

Hi ya, Gorgeous!

Glad your here!

Today's manincure is brought to you by Essies's Spin The Bottle. 

How about that? A nude called Spin The Bottle!  Har har har har!

These nail people crack me up! 

I have to tell you that I love to wear a pretty nude and this is one

of my all time favorites. The perfect shade. Not to pink, not to pale,

not to beige. Just right! 

This is two coats with a top coat. 

Monday's Manicure

Essie - The Girls are Out

Love this color! Can you see the silver sheen to it? 

Soooo shiny in the sun light.

Even though this was part of the summer color collection, I will wear this all year.

The formula is also really nice. Just 2 coats with a clear top coat.

Love it!

Monday's Manicure

Monday's Manicure

Today's mani is brought to you by:

Essie - Mint Candy Apple

I had a tough time with with formula. I normally love Essie polishes, but this was streaky and 

gooey. I'm sad because I love that color!

Julie G Haul

Hi All! :)

 If you read my blog on a regular basis, you will know that I recently got to do a swap with a new blogging friend. Anne of Grape Fizz Nails.

She shares a lot of manicures that feature the nail polish line Joe Fresh. I am loving the 

colors! Sadly you can't get Joe Fresh here in the States.

 SO! I emailed her and asked if she would like to do a swap. She said yes and that she 

would love some JulieG polish. I said DONE! 

You can get JulieG either online (their website kinda stinks) or at your local

Rite Aide. 

Well, you know what happens, right? I can't just buy for her, I have to buy for me too! 

At 3.99 a bottle, I figure I can afford the splurge. :)

So here are the colors that I got.

Let the swatching begin!

Dream in Pretty

Beautiful light orchid color. Great formula. Two easy coats.

Bikini

Surprisingly, this went matte on me after it dried. This was 3 coats with a shiny top coat. It is really

very neon. In the picture my fingers look really tan. 

Sound The Alarm

I think this is going to be my all time favorite red. It is the perfect spring red, great for golden blondes.

Two very smooth easy coats.

LOVE the polish!

Shark's Cove

A beautiful minty turquoise with lots of shimmer. You can see the silver flecks in the polish.

I'm looking forward to wearing this again.

Miami Beach

A really nice coral. I always love a pretty coral.  Again, two easy coats.

Fresh Squeezed

A shimmery butter. Kind of the color of lemonade. 

While I like the color in the picture, I was a little disappointed at how much I 

to fight with this color to get the coverage that you see. This is an incredible four coats.

So that's it!
