polished

let me first apologize for really not being a good blogger lately..lol. i've had a lot of family stuff going on and honestly whenever i have free time, i'm sleeping or i go to check my email, try to start a new entry and nothing comes to mind. 

i just wanted to do a quick post on some nail polish i picked up last week. some of you that follow me on twitter may have seen a little preview to this...

left to right: rumples wiggin, what's with the catitude, playa del platinum and turquoise and caicos

i'll preface my little reviews by first saying up until last fall, i was a pink/coral nail polish girl. i expanded my horizons (lol) and fell in love with grey and blue shades last fall..and i haven't looked back since. 

also, sorry for like one picture of all of them lol. i don't claim to be a beauty blogger and honestly i don't have the patience to do a ton of swatches .. wish i did. anywaaay...

rumples wiggin: this is from the shrek collection for opi. love the light purple shade, i have a lot of things that will match with this. for reference, it's much lighter than do you lilac it by opi. definitely a great summer shade.

what's with the catitude: this is also from the shrek collection for opi. honestly, how can you pass that collection up? i'm not even a big shrek fan (i don't think i've even seen the movies, not that i can remember at least) but the advertisements for this collection were really cute. lol. i would have picked up some more colors but i honestly don't know if i'd like a green or a yellow. i would have tried the dark purple but they were sold out. another really pretty color.

playa del platinum: this is from the essie resort collection. i love this so much already and i plan to buy a second bottle. question: if you like a color a lot, do you typically buy extras? i usually do (lol). in a way, it doesn't make sense because you can often find a dupe and usually bottles last pretty long. this color will go with EVERYTHING you wear this summer. i love it. this is totally an essential color if you want to buy one new polish. it's a must have!

turquoise and caicos: this is also from the essie resort collection. it's a minty-teal. haha. if that makes any sense! i guess my mind was totally set on summer colors when i went shopping. i wasn't planning on picking this up but it totally caught my eye. it's not like a tiffany blue, but for some reason it gave me the same vibe.

WHAT COLORS ARE YOU LOVING FOR THIS SUMMER? DO YOU BUY MULTIPLES OF POLISHES THAT YOU LOVE?
