Happy Monday!
As much as I love long weekends, they always end up throwing me off for the rest of the week. I almost missed this post because I didn't even realize it was Monday! I've pretty much been sick in bed all weekend thanks to a lovely chest cold, so I've had lots of time to brainstorm new blog post ideas! I like the idea of consistency, so for today I thought I would try a #ManiMonday post. I see this hashtag all the time on Instagram & Twitter and always love getting great ideas for nails. Although, I have to admit, I am NOT a fan of any kind of nail art (sorry!). I love polka dots and rhinestones on my clothes but on my nails...not so much! So here's my (quite simple) look for the week:
I love the look of crisp, clean, well-manicured nails but I'm extremely lazy when it comes to doing my own. Whenever I get even the slightest chip, I have to remove/re-paint my polish immediately, so I usually just avoid painting them altogether. This week though, I decided to pamper myself and go a little darker. The shade I'm wearing in this pic is Essie's Shearling Darling--a little homage to the huge burgundy/oxblood nail trend that was crazy popular last fall. I don't have much experience with nail polish but Essie is probably my favorite brand! I was obsessed with their recent fall collection (take a look here) especially the dark navy shade 'After School Boy Blazer'. I don't think they've released their spring 2014 line yet but i'm excited to see what the color range will be this time!
