Golden Sands

Happy Friday!! So happy the weekend is almost here. The weather in Toronto this month has been beautiful, perfectly sunny so I cannot wait to lounge around by the pool and enjoy the sun :)

The polish I have for you today is the first and only polish I own so far from OPI's Designer Series collection. I picked this one up on sale for only $5, and it is called DS Classic.

DS Classic is a very pretty caramel, nude colour with prismatic sparkle that reminds me of Color Club's Love 'Em, Leave 'Em. It is not a linear holographic polish, but it does have that holo sparkle we all love :)

I used BM Plate 213 on my ring finger after a couple of days, I actually took these photos after about a week of wear, pretty awesome huh?! I did use a base and topcoat though, I know some people don't do that with holo/prismatic polish, but I have had no issues when I do use a base and top coat.

I decided later in the weekend to take off my slowly disappearing pink and yellow crackle mani on my toes ( on most toes it wore quite well!), and apply classic. I think classic is the perfect name for this polish, it is sophisticated and I feel rich wearing it. It is office appropriate for those who can't wear funky nail art to work and it sparkles beautifully in the sunlight.

As soon as I wore this in the pool, I knew it reminded me of resort beach sands :) Kinda nice to get that relaxation vacation feel, but man, I gotta get away! Hope you enjoy your weekend!

Vacation pedicure and naked nails ;)

Hi Ladies :)

Today I have another quick post, I have been super busy lately! Anyways in my last couple of posts I have been mentioning my vacation (which I leave for tomorrow!) I went for a pedicure 2 nights ago... it was meh. I tried out a new salon this time, I went to a great place the last time I went for a pedicure. Although the final product was just okay, they were actually really nice and I would consider giving them a second chance.

Switching gears a bit, my mani has been chipping for the last couple of days but I didn't want to change it because I want to paint my nails for vacation tomorrow. I ended up taking the polish off last night and decided to try some OPI Nail Envy - Maintinance, I purchased this at Winners (score!). Anyways I applied it last night and below you can see my current pedi and lack-there-of mani with some nail envy.

I say current pedi because I plan on adding one more coat of polish to my (I used China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy, at the salon they applied 1 coat of white, 2 coats of FFF), It's not as noticeable in the pics but there are some slight bald spots. I also want to do some nail art or Konad, I haven't fully decided yet but I am thinking black Konad with the Hawaii plate (possibly palm trees, hibiscus flowers).

I will also replicate this on my fingers :) I will decide tomorrow whether or not I will post my Vacation Mani/Pedi, I want to take pics of them on the beach :) lol. Regardless tomorrow will be my last post for a week.

So what to you ladies think of the pedi? What would you rate it on a scale of 1 to 10?
