Summer Nails

June 2, 2015

Summer is almost here! What are some of your favorite summer nail colors?

:: Summer Nails ::

For those of you who really know me, know that I have a nail polish addition. Between kids, schedules, life, I hardly make it a priority to get my nails and toes done.  Instead, most often than not, I enjoy doing them at home. I am super picky in regards to polish color, brands, and most of all variety.  I am a complete Gemini that loves pretty summer nails. Here are some of my favorite colors and products that I use to create a good at home summer manicure and pedicure.

FASHION TRENDS WE LOVE…

                                         and hope will never go out of style!

 

 

 

1. Ballet Flats + Leopard print

This is a 2-in-1 for us.

We love a good quality ballet flat like this one from JCrew…

and we can’t get enough leopard!

 

2. Chunky Jewelry both Colorful + Gold

Another {lovely} find from JCrew.

A beautiful necklace can be quite a statement piece!

We love the turquoise mixed with gold!

This dramatic, yet pretty makeup technique has been popular for decades!

Try this great tutorial to achieve the look!

 

4.  Skinny Jeans + Grey

Who doesn’t love a good pair of skinny jeans?

These Hudson’s are particularly fabulous in the color grey…

{my personal love}!

Perfect for wearing with your favorite pair of boots!

 

5.  Nautical Stripes + Infinity Scarfs

Another 2-in-1!

We {heart} stripes and love the look of a polished infinity scarf!

 

6.  The Top Knot

A classic knot or a messy bun,

either way…

an easy way to look pulled together while going a day

{or two},

between washings!

Try this tutorial!

 

7.  Polished Nails

Essie nail polish is not only affordable,

but good quality for a lasting manicure/pedicure.

We love the bright colors…

and of course,

all of the shades of grey {wink, wink}!

 

8.  Boots, Boots & more Boots!

A girl can’t possibly have enough pairs, right?

There are endless varieties out there…

Glamorous Nail Polish

November 26, 2012

Glamous Nail Polish

 

Glamorous Nail Polish by simplyhappenstance featuring essie nailpolish

I have an addiction! Well a healthy one at that.

I love nail polish! I have loved it for some time.

It is one of my “Single Secret Behaviors” that I have carried with me for sometime.

I have always enjoyed and spent far too long looking over choices when getting a pedicure.

When my husband and I decided to cut back on expenses, I thought why not invest in a good polish?

One that was pretty and had less chemicals than the average polish.

Yes they do cost a couple dollars more than the drug store polish, but they last longer

and it looks like a professional Mani Pedi.

I have listed some of my favorites as of this moment

{Thanks to my friend Erica who shares in this passion}!

These brands can be found at your local beauty supply stores

as well as Target {love}.

These are perfect gifts for friends, as they are some of my favorite things.

A little ribbon and a little note “For Your Mistle Toes”

And voila, a beautiful yet, simple gift!

Enjoy!
