Gimme Gimme Green

I am off the gel manicure train for a bit. My nails needed a breather and so did my wallet. I opted for a traditional mani last night. Yes, they may chip within 24 hours (most dreadful situation ever) but not to fear - I have a bunch of new polishes to use when this one gets old. The green is a brighter version of the favorite spring color of the year, mint green. The brighter color will fun with tan skin the hot Florida summer is sure to bring me.

Sparkles for Spring

Sticking to my gel manicures, I opted for some more fun sparkles this time around...this time with a little more color. Who doesn't love a good hot pink every now and then? Vivienne did a fabulous job of giving me the Barbie-like mani I was longing for. Spice it up, honey - it's SPRING!

Oh So Ombre

Ombre is so chic when it comes to your locks so why not move that trend right to your finger tips? Inspired by a photo from Instagram, I headed in to Luxury Spa for my favorite nail stylist, Vivienne, to give me a new edgy nail design. Viv used a light pink Gelish shallac polish and mixed three different gold glitters for the ombre tips. Something a little new and fun for spring. If you're a little nervous about trying something like this, start with a neutral base like mine. 

Mani Must

I'm sure you've heard of gel/shellac manicures but if you haven't actually tried it, shame on you! Yes, of course it's a little more expensive but all things of quality are. I'm one of those women that notices one small chip in her nail polish and is in a state of absolutely panic until I I have removed the polish. No one likes a chipped mani...no one. My one recommendation: ask for three coats of the gel polish. This polish stays shiny for longer. Want to add a little sass? Ask for an ombre glitter design, like above.
