Whisper.

A whisper is about all I can handle today. What. A. Day.

Silk Crepe.

I love this color for my toes - a Barbie pink with such a subtle shimmer it's barely noticeable at first glance.

Minimalistic.

A barely there pink perfect in just 3 coats - now how is that for being minimalistic ;)

What Goes Around Comes Around.

I'm loving the neon is back on trend - there's nothing like a straight up neon pink. The shocking bright offers a feeling of exuberance.

Armed & Ready.

An outfitted army green perfect to protect those pearly undertones (and makes those extra tough days all that much prettier).

Antique Rose.

The perfect balance of a shimmering coppery rosegold - a color I'm finding myself more and more attracted to.

Eternal Optimist.

There is a certain amount of grace that surrounds being an eternal optimist. In the last few weeks, I've seen quite a few challenges brought forth my way, and at times have skewed my positivity. It's funny how sweet reminders like this light rosy neutral essie shade named eternal optimism can get me back on track. Now always being optimistic may not always make things better, but believing in yourself sparks a drive that will ultimately make things better.

Mint Condition.

Mint is an absolute must have in your wardrobe right now; it brings an instant sense of femininity to any look and a color that flatters many.

Need A Vacation.

{essie}

After a day like yesterday, a vacation in the near future is certainly in need. What the hell happened?! Unbelievable day and glad it's over. From bad weather to trips to the ER (everyone is ok, thankfully) to unannounced surprises (& not the happy kind) yesterday was a culmination of all things that could possibly go wrong, all go wrong at the same time. But hey, it is what it is and things are settling down now. Fingers crossed its smooth sailing from here on out.

Dynamic Duo.

Lately, I've been all about leopard and neon. Winning combo, don't you think?
