Manicure Monday: Mermaid’s Dream

February 22, 2016September 2, 2013

I am obviously on a mermaid kick! Check out last weeks, MANIcure MonDAY post! I might be just excited to watch the little mermaid will my daughter, Cami. I would love if I could find an awesome mermaid costume for her first Halloween. It will be here before you know it! Until then, I am going to continue wearing my Mermaid’s Dream Nail Polish by Deborah Lippmann. Today, I layered it over a cream colored chalky nail polish called Mod in Manhattan by Color Club. I received it in my Birch Box a few months ago.

Butcher Block Grill: Boca Raton, Florida

February 22, 2016September 1, 2013

Last week, I got to eat at this awesome new restaurant in Boca Raton, Florida. I am new Boca resident and am always looking for new places to eat. Now that my first child is here, it is important that date night is strategically planned. We really have not gone out together without the baby yet. We said we’d have a date night once per week, but it just has not happened. I am hoping to have one this weekend! The Butcher Block Grill is a great date night place for us because it is very close and the food is amazing. I did a complete review of the Butcher Block Grill on my new Mommy & Daddy Blog, Palm to Park. Check out the complete review here.

MANIcure MonDAY: Mermaid Manicure

February 22, 2016August 26, 2013

I decided to institute Manicure Mondays in a effort to keep my nails looking presentable now that I am a mommy. This way my followers will keep me accountable! I started using this cuticle dissolving lotion by Blue Cross. It makes it really easy to do my own nails because I don’t have to cut my cuticles. In the past, I have always gone a little overboard on cutting down my cuticles in that I end up cutting myself. This way I can leave the cuticle cutter alone and focus on just polishing my nails. Today, I painted my nails with Mojito Madness by Essie and Whimsical by Revlon. The color that comes from layering the milky blue from Whimsical over Mojito Madness looks very similar to Mermaid Tears by OPI that I wore here and here.
