My Favorite Nail Color


Yesterday I got a much needed manicure and pedicure.  I really love this color nail polish and have been using it for a few of months now.  I purchased it at Sephora last year.  It's Sephora by OPI's "It's all about me".   This color matches almost all my pink clothing perfectly.  I use to do the french manicure pink and white acrylics.  It looks great and I like it much better than getting white tips, but it takes FOREVER.  I would do pink and white over white tips for a french manicure any day though if I was going for french. It's worth the extra time it takes.  Now that I'm not doing french nails anymore it takes at least an hour less to get them done.  It's hard for me to sit still long, especially when I'm getting a pedicure too.


My toes nails don't look so good right now.  One nail has come completely off from running the all marathons and half marathons over the winter.  My big toe looks a little black.  I had it painted over pink anyway, but it needs help.  I hope it doesn't look that way at the wedding this summer.  No pictures of them for now.

  1. gorgeous color. sephora opi has wonderful colors.
    i gave myself a quick mani-pedi yesterday. because i was in a hurry, i went with chanel's "ballerina" which is that lovely opaque, fool-proof nude-pink. it looks very french, very fresh.
    your toe came off? you mean...toe nail? ;)

  2. Thanks Steph! I made the correction. I did mean toe nail of course. lol I gonna have to fire my proofreader. (that would be the Murph lol) I love the lighter "ballerina" colors too. Darker pinks looks better on me though.

  3. ..and i have a correction to make myself! i meant to say chanel "ballerina" nail polish is translucent, not opaque. it's a sheer hue used for french manicures. essie makes a bunch of pretty ones, too.

    1. I've seen the Essie ballerina color. I love it! I found out what happened to my "expert" proofreader (the Murph) and why he missed the part I screwed up on about my toe falling off instead of the nail. He admitted to only "skimming" over this nail polish color post because he said he doesn't really care about reading "girly" things like nail polish colors. lol

  4. lol!! next time you want him to proofread something "girly", interject a few key words to help him pay attention to what he's reading. Words such as meat, sports, beer, barbeque...
