New Nails

Since I've had no where to go for a couple of weeks I kind of slacked off on painting my nails, which was odd for me because I alwayyys have my nails painted. I guess it was kind of a good break for my nails though because they were starting to look a little stained so a couple weeks of oxygen is good for them haha!

Anyway, with school starting I wanted my nails to look nice and perfect. I shaped, cut and filed them and made 'em look all nice and neat! It was kind of hard for me to pick out a color but I ended up going with Essie Tart Deco. It is such a beautiful bright coral color, and it looks good with a tan, so I slapped a couple coats on and there's my mani for ya! :)

I painted my toe nails a pastel-y turquoise color but I will honestly say I am saving your eyes from the awfulness that was my feet in pictures. i mean really i even cringed. So I'll just keep it at that!

I will say though I almost painted my nails with trendy dark fall colors. I cant believe I'm saying this but I'm kind of getting that fall bug... like I've been thinking about layering and wearing sweaters and high socks with my ankle boots, burning my pumpkin pie candles...who would believe summer is practically over already?! :( 

What colors are you wearing on your nails?

Vivids

I know this collection isn't new, it's over a year old, but man I can't get over how much I adore the colors. I mean even the names say it all. Currently, I've been loving shocking coral, and if I can recall correctly it was one of my monthly favorites. I still can't get over it, it's the perfect summertime peach coral(obviously)color and it complements a tan extraordinarily. Another beautiful color is Vivid Rose, and if you didn't hear the hype around this lipstick where were you?! Haha just kidding :-) But really, the pigmentation is none other than opaque and smooth, and it leaves a shiny finish. And it's SO bright and pretty. The other color pictured above is On Fire Red, and like the name says it's a deep pure red. It's not too orangey by any means, but it's basically a perfect red. I loved wearing this in the Fall and Winter time, because it gave such a classy pop of color to my pale skin. It's got a nice velvety, not too matte not too shiny finish to it. But I also wore this the other night to dinner and it complemented my tan very well, and people kept saying how much they adore the color, and they couldn't believe it was drugstore haha! So there you go ;)

And I'm DYING to go and get the rest of the collection. I can't believe I haven't yet...I'm so sorry wallet.
