Essie Bossa Nova

I took my aunt for a manicure and pedicure for her anniversary, at first I was just going to get a pedicure but when I saw how disgusting my cuticles had gotten I gave in and got a manicure as well. The place that I go to by my grandma's finally got new polishes, some OPI DS's and the new Essies as well. When I spotted "Lights" I oohed and aaahed but then I spotted "Super Bossa Nova" and grabbed it instead. For some reason I have been gravitating towards bright creme colors, it's not a bad thing per say but very un me!

                                        


I got a little nail art as well. I swear I could practice all day everyday and still not be anywhere as good as the woman who work there. They are so amazing! I watched as this woman did butterflies on this customers fingers. I practically had to wipe away the drool. Ah Erika..one day.. one day.

But this is a short one today, I'm heading to the Bronx to see my sister and preparing for this horrible heat wave we are having on the east coast..BLERG!

ELF four piece nail set -sold out!-

Smoking hot is the last one but the rest are equally as amazing!

I bought this on a whim a few months ago when I was placing an elf order. I don't own a lot of coral colors and for 5$ it wasnt a brainer. The stand out of the set is Smokin' hot. A gorgeous bright orangey red. I literally took about 20 pics, but this color refused to photograph properly. I do not know how people who can get the actual color photographed, did they go to a school for wizardry and witchcraft?

Here is mine:

I put my semi decent wanna be nail art skills to work and just did a few little white flowers. Amazing isn't it? :not:
But as you see, the color is no where as amazing as it looks in the bottle. Renee and I should start a support group called "We can never get our nail polish to look as amazing on film" WCNGONPTLAAOF for short. I kid!
Kinda.

I have so many polishes that I need to swatch! And guys please there is only one more day till the giveaway.. so please enter!!!

APL giveaway!

But I must go for now!

Thanks guys for the support, you rock!
