I'm Back!!!

Hello everyone! I'm back from my trip to Europe! It was a great oppurtunity to visit France, Italy, and Greece! I had so much fun! However, after a 3 week trip, I'm tired.... Very tired! I'll probably spend the next few days relaxing, but I'll make sure to post! I have some nail mail that I recieved during my trip, so I'll make sure to show you that. I also got some nail polish, so that will be up on the blog as well! I'm tired, so I better be going!

Thanks for reading! Look forward to some awesome posts in the next few days!

My Europe Trip: Day #19

It's the second-to-last day of my trip to Europe! I'm sad! Today, I will be spending all day at the beach in Athens, Greece! It'll be lots of fun!

This photo is basically my favorite of every picture that I've taken so far. It's a picture of a weed/plant/flower (I'm not sure) on the golf course I live on. I love this picture so much! The depth of field is sooooo amazing! *dies* I love this picture so much!

My Europe Trip: Day #8

Wow! It's already the 8th day of my trip to Europe! I have said au revoir to France, and now I am saying ciao (in Italian) or salve (in Latin) to Italy! Last night, I took an overnight train from France to Venice, Italy. Today, I will be riding an Venetian Gondola! Exciting! I will see see various tourist attractions, such as the Guggenheim Museum, the Fenice Theater, Mozart's Venice Residence, the Basilica San Marco, and the Bridge of Sighs. I will also see a presentation about the art of Murano Glass blowing. If you have never seen Murano glass, look it up now! Or you can CLICK HERE.

Do you want to know what I just thought of? I just thought of all the exotic brands of nail polish that will be avaliable in Europe! I honestly don't know how much free time I will have, but when I can get to a drugstore... I will be buying polish! You can for sure expect a haul post when I get back.

You can also expect a lot of photograph when I get pack! Oh, I will take so very many pictures. But for now... I only have pictures from before Europe. Enjoy!

Sally Hansen Blue Me Away (TOTD)

WARNING: If you do not like toes or feet... Do not scroll down any more or read this post!!!
Haha, it's okay if you don't read any further. I'm not too terribly fond of feet anyway... But some polished toes really make the feet look a lot better! :)

On my toes, I am wearing Sally Hansen Blue Me Away from their Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear line. This is a lovely 2 coat blue, and it's only around $2 or $3! On my feet, I am wearing Chacos! They are only the best heavy-duty, hiking sandals out there!


What do you think? Are my feet too ugly? Should I post more TOTDs? Do you like the blue polish? Do you like my Chacos? Haha, lots of questions! Thanks for reading!

OPI Planks A Lot and China Glaze Luxe and Lush (NOTD)

Hello! Today, I have a NOTD that I wore a few days ago! Enjoy!

On my nails, I started out with OPI Ridge Filler. Then, I added 2 coats of OPI Planks A Lot from last yeat's Pirates of the Caribbean On Stranger Tides Collection. For an accent nail, I added 2 coats of China Glaze Luxe and Lush.

I really like Planks A Lot! It's a beautiful pastel purple, and an awesome 2 coater. However, Luxe and Lush was a different story. I really like the concept of the irregular flake/glitter. It's really cool looking and beautiful. But mine just dried really lumpy and thick! It's a bitter sweet type of polish. Really cool, but a pain. Have you tried Luxe and Lush? What do you think?


Don't you like my picture? I took it with my new camera! Haha, I love that camera! I am really happy that I got it! :)

Thank you so much for reading! Have a great day!

Blast from the past #8: Hello Summer!

Hello, and welcome to the final day of my "Blasts from the Past" Series! Today's "blast" is from the past, but not too long ago! I wore this manicure about 2 weeks ago, around the time my summer started! Hence the title, "Hello Summer!"

The "accent nail" trend is really big, so I thought I would jump in on it! My accent nail is Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow, and all the other nails are Sally Hansen Caribbean Coral. I really like the coral and yellow together! What do you think?



Well, that's it for my "Blasts from the Past" Series! I hope that you enjoyed it! Tomorrow, I will be back with a recent manicure! Thanks for reading!
