Polish Jewelry- Etsy Plug

I haven't posted in forever... I started my internship and BOOM!  I'm down to nubbins.  I haven't painted them all week because I've abandoned all hope, but I plan to try to jump back on the manicure/blog bandwagon this weekend.  This just won't do.

But in the meantime, I decided to finally plug my etsy here.  It's nothing super special or unique, but my internship is unpaid and takes up all my time, and crafts help me de-stress.

The link is here:  General Goods


Not only is there some polish jewelry, but some wreaths and some origami crane stuff, and also some WoW hearthstone keychains.  Check it out if you have the time, I appreciate it :)

Hopefully I'll be back this weekend with some mani photos!

Forever 21 Swatch- Love & Beauty: Orchid and SUPER EXCITING NEWS!

I mentioned yesterday that I went home for a few days for a mini vacation and had some exciting news.  Well...

I'M ENGAGED!

My boyfriend (fiance!!!) proposed to me while we were visiting!  My brother and his girlfriend (Josie of Josie's Nails) and my parents were all in on it and I was COMPLETELY oblivious.  After the proposal we went back to my parents' house where there was another surprise waiting- all of my family were there for a secret surprise BBQ!  It was super awesome.  My only regret is that I had peeled off all of my nail polish (the rainbow leopard print I posted about yesterday) during the movie that we went to see, so my nails look like the above in all the photos!  So now I will be super motivated to QUIT NIBBLING!  

I knew that I needed to paint my nails for when I wanted to take photos of my ring, so I decided to put on hold the 4th of July manicure I had in mind and went instead with a super fast mani using a new polish I had gotten from Forever 21 earlier that day.  This is Love & Beauty in Orchid.




As you can see, I had a really hard time capturing the color with my camera.  It didn't help that I was in the car on the way to the airport!  Orchid is really a beautiful color, and for less than 3 dollars, a total steal!  I wasn't expecting a whole lot, to be honest, but I was really impressed and I can't wait to try the other two Love & Beauty colors that I purchased.
