Ole Caliente

P325

Tomorrow is Friday yay! I had my mom paint my nails for me last night and decide to use Essie’s Ole Caliente. I purchased it awhile ago and haven’t had a chance to use it but I figured I would go for it. It is a firey-orange-red color and it is perfect for summer! Usually I prefer OPI because of their bright colors but lately Essie has been using bolder colors and seem to be moving away from the pastels. Don’t get me wrong, I love to wear pastels too but sometimes I want a crazy color in the summer. What summer colors are you using? Do you prefer bolder colors or pastels?

Jimmy Choo!

So… last week I decided to get crazy at the same time that Neiman Marcus was having a wonderful sale!  I actually went ahead and purchased my first pair of Jimmy Choo heels! They are coral peeptoe slingbacks and I got them for a steal. It was between these Jimmy Choos and a pair of Manolo Blahniks but the Manolos just didn’t fit as well and had an awkward point at the ball of your foot. I was sure I wouldn’t be able to walk in those heels for more than an hour. I haven’t actually worn my heels out yet, but I did put them on and they were extremely comfortable. I know I made the right choice! What do you guys think? Have you ever had anything that you had been waiting to purchase and were able to snag it on sale?

Summer nails!!

Ahh!! I’m back from vacation finally. It took a long while but I am back and I have a ton of amazing pictures I am sure I will be sharing with you shortly! As for now… I wanted to show you my awesome nails! I used “Mint Candy Apple” by Essie and then used OPI Pros & Bronze to make 3 stipes on each of my ring fingers. I think it’s super fun and different and not too bad considering I did it on my own. In all honesty, the reason I took the picture so far away is that the stripes don’t look that amazing close up, but from a distance they look great.

I also painted my toes Mojito Madness by Essie. In case you didn’t already know…. I LOVE GREEN! It’s my absolute favorite color.  I apologize in advance for the bad lighting and the way my feet look awkwardly red. I wanted to get this post out during lunch so I did this as quick as possible.
