" NAIL POLISH " Holiday Glitter and Sequins

One of my vices is buying Nail Polish. I remember starting my collection around 11 years old. It's only grown exponentially since then. Like barracudas, I too am attracted to shiny, reflective things. My collection integrates pastels, neons and neutrals. If I pass by a Nail Polish display, I can't help browsing and leaving with a bottle or two. My favorite brands? O.P.I. (super chip resistant!) Chanel (for the whimsical color wheel.) Essie (for splashes of punchy color.) I also enjoy wearing Deborah Lippmann (for a Party on your fingernails!) I have yet to try Nars or Dior. Any reviews you care to share?




P.S. CONGRATULATIONS to our Sequin Felix Rey Handbag Giveaway Winner: Jamie!

" NAIL POLISH " Metallic Silver Belles

Metallic Silver Nail Polish
Noir Spiked Pyramid Ring Set


This is the nail polish color I've been sporting as of late. Very metallic and all kinds of silvery shine. It makes me think of Christmas presents, streamers and silver bells. How do you like it? One day I will share with you my entire nail polish collection. ;)

I'm thinking of wearing green or gold nail polish next. Suggestions??

Neon Nail Polish

Remember my neon yellow nails? Courtesy of American Apparel. Right now I'm wearing the neon pink polish. I have a feeling you'll be seeing me in both colors a lot this summer.

I have a ridiculous obsession with nail polish. So much so that I plan my nail colors around outfits. You can't even imagine my collection of colors. If I know I'm going out of town for a while I try to pick a color for the entire stay that coordinates with most (or all) of my looks. OCD perhaps? In many ways I'm a little bit like MONK (detective TV series) from USA Network. Everything in its place, in order. You should see the lists I make when packing. I even create little boxes to check things off in. ;)

Next STOP? LA here I come (again) only for 48 hrs which means all work and no play for this girl. I'm extremely excited to play dress up, even though it's "work" it's still a lot of fun to me!

New In Nail Polish from Butter London

Butter London Nail Polish in Jaffa


Butter Nail Polish in Jaffa Coral This color is the perfect hybrid of pink and orange. More pink than orange and looks great on toes too. What I love most about this polish is how easily it applies and how quickly it dries. This is my first bottle (of many more, I'm sure) from Butter London.
Have a great weekend!!

Lilac Nail Polish \ Worthy of the Unicorns

The nail polish in my previous post is a creamy, soft purple. The kind of purple any Unicorn member would approve of. Did you ever read Sweet Valley Twins? I'm sure Lila Fowler, Jessica Wakefield and Janet Howell would be clamoring for a bottle.

Nail Polish is Dynasty by American Apparel.

Chanel Nail Polish Concoction

I received quite a few inquiring emails about my current nail lacquer du jour... in answer, I grew bored of OPI's muddied gray and decided to create my ideal shade of blue slate gray. I blended You Don't Know Jacques by OPI with White Satin by Chanel. To finish, I mixed in Neo Whimsical by Essie, for a slight blue hue. And... Voila!

I call it Cloudy Skies.

All That Remains

Forever 21 rings. Essie nail polish. Sweet Valley Twins book.


H&M finally opened up shop nearby! Talk about exciting! I even have a gift card to spend. I've wanted to explore their store for years now. I have a feeling my Spring looks just might be sponsored by their collections.

I'm on the hunt for: rings, dresses, skirts and pretty/frilly things.


What do YOU most want to wear this Spring?

Dany Platforms & Essie Spring Polish (Jessica Simpson)

Jessica Simpson Dany in pewter. Thanks, Zappos! Close-Up/Sneak Peek.

Essie Spring 2010 colors.
[L-R]: Lilacism, Neo Whimsical, Pop Art Pink, Red Nouveau, Tart Deco and Van D'Go.

Can you guess the four I chose?



Lately I've been:
Trying out new recipes. Last night I made Angel hair, lemon shrimp, tomato basil pasta. I've invented a new garlic bread (extra olive oil) and tried out chewy gingersnap cookies, with molasses. I'm also catching up on my reading. I just finished Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. My attention was held captive the entire time by the narration given through the main character's thinking process rather than actually speaking out loud. Now, I'm delving into a sea of Judy Blume. Ah the nostalgia!
