Mani Monday | Be More Pacific

While I wish I could be as Pacific as dré, this new Wet n Wild color will have to do! If you recall, I picked up this color during that ultra sale I mentioned here. This is the first time I've worn it and I must say the color's lovely! A fun teal, not too green, easy application and quick to dry. 

Now if I only had some sand...

Can't wait to be reunited with you, dré, for an all-new drédin adventure! 

Let the countdown for my Honolulu visit commence!

Mani Monday | Garden Variety

Your nail game just got turned up a notch with this sassy teal color from Essie's Spring 2015 collection. And despite the name, you won't be referred to as anything other than a trendy fashionista!

Now, it is quite bold in color, so if you work in a strict environment (sad face), then this color is best saved for your toes or the weekend.

I'm not quite sure why my difficulty with Essie polishes continues, but once again it wasn't the smoothest process. With 'Garden Variety ' I found it to be extremely thin causing the paint to drip off the brush. Once I got to the second coat (which was barely needed because the color is so rich!), I was able to find a happy medium between a brush stroke that spilled paint and one that prevented a smooth stroke.

In other words, I 'm a pro and made it work. Just look at this color! How could I not?
