Bright Nails for the summer:D

Hiiiii!! :D

The past few weeks I have been sporting some  bright nails, and I have to say I love it! Many people may not necessarily like these statement nails, but personally, I think they are so fun especially with the weather just starting to get nice!

The four I have used this past month are the Quo by Orly nail polishes in Femme Fatale  and Jawbreaker (my absolute favourites), Essie's Cute as a button, and Revlons' wild card.

The two Quo nail polishes are beautiful neon shades and I think they are just so amazing!! First of all they last a long time, which I think is important in a bright nail polish since chips are much more noticable. The formula of these nail polishes is phenomenal! They are such pretty summery shades and they do make you look more tanned than you are. I also think they look awesome with the revlon matte topcoat.

Cute as a button is a gorgeous pinky colour and it was one of my favourites last summer as well. It's not as BAM in your face as the Quo polishes , and it doesn't last as long , but it's beautiful nonetheless.

Excuse the horrible picture and the one white nail, But this is a photo from a previous blog post showing cute as a button:)


And finally, Revlon's colourstay gel envy polish in wild card is a gorgeous royal blue. Again , it's not as bright and neon as the quo polishes , but it is the perfect blue for summer in my opinion. It's not too dark , and it is beautiful. This also lasts a long time on the nails. Now sadly I did not take a picture of this on my nails, so I apologize for that. But you'll just have to take my word for it! It's amazing!

Let me know what bright nail colours you've been loving! I hope you all have a wonderful day, wherever you are, an are enjoying the lovely weather!

Spring Essentials

Hiiii! :)

Spring is such a beautiful time of year. The weather is lovely, there are cute bunnies all over my lawn, and the flowers and trees are in bloom everywhere you look. Now that the school year is finished for me, I am able to enjoy these simple pleasures without being super stressed out! 

One thing I love being able to do is read, since there really is no time for that during the school year. I just started reading "Everything is Illuminated" so hopefully it's good! :) 

In spring I absolutely adore light pastel nails. these two colours by Essie are my favourite at the moment: "absolutely shore" and "lilacism".

My scrunchie from Garage is a necessity for me. Scrunchies are awesome because I find they don't get as tangled in your hair as regular hair elastics do , and they don't rip your hair when you take them out. 

I just bought a new pair of sunglasses from Aldo because I sat on my last pair which are now broken. I do really love this new pair though and definitely need them as the weather is getting nicer!

And of course who doesn't love music!! I've already made a spring/summer playlist that I think is perfect ;)

Cute As A Button

Hiii:)
I have this little obsession with nail polish that usually begins every spring and lasts until school begins again. I absolutely love buying all the different colours and painting my nails. I think my nail painting skills have definitely improved with the amount that I paint them :) I tend not to do my nails as often in the winter months because school, hockey and other activities keep me busy and there is simply not enough time. Although I love doing my nails it is a tedious task as I hate waiting for them to dry. I always seem to chip them not long after as well which is kind of my own fault!

Anyways, today I did my nails and I wanted to share it with you as the colour I used is one of my favourites at the moment.
 There are two colours on my nails at the moment but the pinky coral one is my favourite. I hadn't had a chance to try the white one and I figured these colours went nicely together. I wouldn't really call the white nail polish "sparkly" but there is a definite shimmer in it. It didn't really turn up great in the picture although the second picture captures it a bit. I do really like this one as well but the coral is just amazing! Every time I wear it someone compliments me on it. It lasts for a good amount of time and I think it is perfect for this season. I just got it about a month or two ago and I have already worn it three times. I just think it is soooo pretty:)
     The pink-coral colour is called "cute as a button" (essie) and the shimmery white is "It's All About the Glam"(Nicole by OPI). These nail polishes can be expensive sometimes but I was able to get both of these on sale at a very good price. I am very happy with both of these polishes. 
Feel free to leave any thoughts below, and I hope you all have a wonderful day! :)
