I got another box of goodies from Julep a couple weeks ago, so I’ve swatched them all up for your viewing pleasure. There are more colours after the break!
Paisley Swirls – stamping
I’m gonna come right out and say it: I love this manicure. I am so pleased that I have all my swatching done for the next week because it means I can wear this manicure until it chips (and usually I’m itching to take manicures off but figure I need to wear them for a couple days at least to make the effort worth it). See lots more pictures (both hands!) and the details after the break.
Swatched: China Glaze All Aboard Picks
I meant to get this post out last week, but that pink shirt thwarted my plans by reflecting in half of my swatches, so I had to retake them. I actually picked up two more from this collection in the meantime, and discovered that they are on clearance at my local Sally Beauty, so if you’ve had your eye on something you might want to go see if you can grab it before they disappear. Check out my swatches after the break.
Nail Art: Poppies
I have some nail art in honour of Remembrance Day today, which is tomorrow, November 11th. In Canada, in the month or so leading up to the day, we wear plastic poppies on pins in our jacket lapels, and even after three years living in the US, I can’t get used to the lack of plastic poppies around. I actually considered asking my Mom to grab one for me and send it to me in my Christmas package, so I’ll have one next year, but it might be weird. Of course, that’s not even considering that the temperature here in California is way too high to be wearing jackets with lapels in which to stick a poppy on a pin. I’ll have to content myself with poppies on my nails, I guess. See more pictures after the break.
