I'm leaving on a jet planeeeeee!

Pin It I don't know when I'll be back again! No seriously, I fly standby so I have no idea lmao! I'm leaving to Houston for a week to visit my dad who recently had surgery. Good news is, he's cancer free. YAY DAD! I have a few posts planned this week, but I won't be all interactive as usual. ;) Normal bliggity blog biznits will resume next Wednesday/Thursday.

As I stated in my giveaway post yesterday, I won't be searching high and low like I usually do. But ALL giveaways that are emailed to me will be posted :)

Can't leave without a mani! That's pure blasphemy. Here's my trip manicure. I actually thought about this for a solid week hahahahaha. I picked up some nail stickers for the rest of the trip because I'm lazy like that haha



I used Picture Polish Paradise, which is amazing. I was so happy this was good to go in 2 coats! This is my first Picture Polish and I'm in lalalalove! Haha

I used Julie G/Jesse's Girl Crushed Candy (textured) as the accent nail. In addition, I added 3 square studs from Born Pretty Store. (PSSSST, in my sidebar there is a coupon! If 10 people use it I get to host a giveaway for y'all!)

Hope you have a nice time without me! Hahah
 
Because apparently I have to specify review items or I might get in trouble by Lord knows who. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH are you even reading this? Born Pretty Store sent me the studs in exchange for an honest review. I will have the review at a later date. The polishes were purchased by me. If you are interested in my reviews, or would like me to review an item - please take a look at the "DISCLAIMER" and "CONTACT" links in the menu bar at the top of the page. GRASSYASS!
