Spring Nail Trends

Spring is my favorite time of year because the colors are so vibrant and fun! Painting your nails is an easy way to start getting in the mood for spring. Before I headed up to New England to visit my family for the weekend, I went to Walgreens to grab a few new spring polishes. There were so many awesome colors to choose from at Walgreens that I had a hard time picking only a few. I decided to go with Revlon Nail Enamel in Bubbly and Essie Nail polish in Sittin’ Pretty, Vices Versa, and I’m Addicted.

MANIcure MonDAY: Prestige Wonder Gloss Majesty

MANIcure MonDAY: Prestige Wonder Gloss Majesty

Product was provided for review purposes. All opinions are 100% my own.

Happy Manicure Monday! This week I tried out the Prestige Wonder Gloss in Majesty. The polish is Super Glossy with Multi Vitamins. The Majesty Color provides maximum coverage and durability. The nail polish is resistant to shock and it strengthens nails. The color is a rich blue that is between navy and midnight. The polish is perfectly on trend as it reminded me of Salvatore Ferragamo Fall 2013 collection. Leave the LBD behind this year along with black nail polish and try a little blue dress and navy polish. It is classic and refined. Navy looks great on most skin tones.

MANIcure MonDAY: Boom Boom Room by Essie

This week for Manicure Monday, I am wearing Boom Boom Room from Essie. I discovered this color at the nail salon a few day before giving birth to Cami. I got both my toes and nails done with the color. It was so nice to have my nails done so girly for when my little girl came out! Also, the name of the color is so silly and awesome! LOVE IT!!
