What Are You Wearing on Your Nails?

July 3rd, 2010 by Karen 33 Comments

MAC Alice + Olivia Nail Lacquers from left: Morning After, Military and So Rich So Pretty ($12 each)

Right now I’m sporting bare fingers and toes, but my digits are plotting to paint themselves if I don’t give them a hand. They have their hearts set on some of the new shades in the MAC Alice + Olivia collection (available July 8). My fingers are considering Military (the glittery blackish gray), and the toes are pulling for So Rich So Pretty (the shimmery bright purple)…

I’m still up in Napa but coming home soon. Tabs just sent me a text that reads, “Gravy?”

What are you wearing on your fingers/toes?

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

    So Rich So Pretty looks incredible.

    I’ve got OPI You’re A Doll! on my fingers and OPI Manicurist of Seville on my toes. Not very patriotic, but it’s a really pretty combination.

    My fingernails are bare right now, but I’m wearing Hard Candy in “Frenzy” (creamy teal) on my toes. It seriously lasts forever! Those Alice + Olivia polishes are tempting!

    I’ve got OPI’s Thrill of Brazil on my toes and fingers. Its the only true red that I’ve ever bought and it took me a half an hour at the store to figure out which red I thought would work. However tomorrow I need to change the polish, perhaps to OPI Charmed By A Snake or China Glaze Fifth Avenue.

    I am wearing Nicole OPI Party to 3 Am on my toes and MAC Morning After on my fingers. My MAC store released Alice + Olivia one week early, so I grabbed some goodies including the pretty blue nailpolish.

    “Right now I’m sporting bare fingers and toes, but my digits are plotting to paint themselves if I don’t give them a hand.” <— Ahahaha, clever. 😉

    I'm rockin' nekkid nails too, but I've been wanting to paint my fingernails in Sephora by OPI's Teal We Meet Again.

    I was eyeing these polishes, but decided finally to skip them. They are not super special. I ordered only the teal pigment from Alice + Olivia.
    At the moment I have Essie California Coral on my fingers, but I’m going to change it today for Essie Turquoise & Caicos. Toes are French.

    OPI’s Mother Road Rose. I kind of wish I had stuck to one coat, though, as two seem to come out dark. Oh well, I’ll probably have to strip down and repaint in a couple days anyway. 🙂

    I love So Rich, So Pretty. I’m not sure I could pull that off at work but I’d be tempted to try. 🙂

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
