easter candy.

 the result of my recent revlon nail polish purchase combined with the other pastel polishes in my collection. these pretty colors remind me of easter, and smell like it, too. the revlon polish is scented and smells like candy when dry. it was weird (in a good way) at first...everytime my hands came near my face, i could smell it. i caught myself sniffing my fingernails while driving, and it reminded me of that seinfeld episode where jerry was scratching the side of his nose when the girl he was dating pulled up on the other side. he tried to explain that
it was just a scratch, not a pick.
if anyone pulls up alongside me, it's just a sniff...really!

neon love.

despite the blogger fiasco yesterday, i felt quite cheery walking around in this bright yellow neon tank. i've been loving the look of neon paired with just about anything...beige, black, white, and even other bright colors. after a week with the white blazer, i had to give my black blazer some love.

i just about died when i saw this essie display at my local drug store...fully stocked, no less. i wanted to get one of each color, but 58 shades x eight bucks a pop + tax = four hundred eighty something dollars. so i narrowed it down to tart deco. it looked soft and opalescent in the bottle, but turned out to be opaque and almost neon. i love it, actually.
this will be a summer essential.
