Dear Summer Nails,

September 7, 2011









...you were amazing!

It is no secret that I am a bit obsessed with nail polish and just adore a perfectly fresh manicure.  This summer was no exception.  Bright colors with fancy embellishments were fun to wear but I am looking forward to deeper colors for the cooler months; specifically my favorite dark shade: OPI's Russian Navy. Or jet black! Or red.

What is your favorite nail polish shade to rock in the cooler months?

xoxo, thanks for reading!

  7. My favorite color this summer is terracotta by Orly, which is a coral like color. I will also be transitioning it into the winter as well, but I'm also into trying browns and blues as well for the winter.

    I'm loving each color you are wearing here, but particularly love the light brown color by Essie and the blue..so pretty :-) I haven't tried any colors by Essie, but going to have to give them a try.

  9. I absolutely love each color you wore! Gorgeous! You actually inspired me to get the Milani Jewel FX. I have worn it for the past two weeks and I've gotten so many compliments. It's somewhat of a beast to take off though. LOL! Plus, that OPI color you mentioned for fall is the bomb.

  21. I found your blog a few weeks ago and I've been lurking but never posted. I just wanted to say you have such great style. Lately I've been looking for inspiration to help me recycle/remix my wardrobe. I think I do good dressing now, but I felt I wasn't putting as much effort into it like I used.

    I was even been inspired by your blog (as well as others) to start another blog http://embracingtherealme.blogspot.com/ (I already have another) to not just talk about fashion, but to inspire others to know they can feel good about themselves on the inside and look good on the outside too! I discovered about myself (again) while looking at all these wonderful blogs!!

    Thanks for the inspiration!!
