um, so i was chasing my cat around trying to get a picture of my steel nails that match his beautiful fur and 1. mani pic fail 2. they look green next to his fur 3. dang, i wish i had my cats eye color. >^..^< i am wearing “steel-her heart” by revlon with a coat of “make u smile” by nicole by opi on my ring fingers. i think this was my third mani this week. btw, you can see my elmo mani that i did for eeps bday here. so…has anyone read the happiness project? i read about it briefly over on the hollywood housewife and i know i heard about it from someone else but now i’ve forgotten who. i really want to get it although i’m not sure why because i already have about 5 other books stacked on my nightstand unread. thankfully there is a happiness project blog so i think i will start there! have you come across any great new (or not so new) blogs lately?

    OMG – your cat looks exactly like mine!! Seriously, they could be twins! 🙂 Love the mani, too – am going to try to recreate this one for sure.

    Love that nail polish color! I just painted mine yesterday a very similar one- fall is definitely here.

    Love the pop of sparkle on one nail – think I may try that with my next manicure tonight – deep plum color.

    I love this color. I’ve been looking for a darker color to rock and this one seems to fit the bill nicely. What a beautiful cat too!

    I love grey (My favourite colour – sad but true, when there are so many more colourful colours) so this is great – Matte finishes are really nice, and mixing it up with a glitter gloss is a really nice bit of sparkle !
    keep on keepin on !

    I never thought I would see someone match their nails with their cat! Amazing

    Your cat is adorable and you’re right a cats-eye colour polish would be gorgeous!

    This made me laugh! Just the other day I was trying to get a photo of my cat Tarzan for similar blog reasons and it just wasnt working even though his normally such a calm behaved cat! Alas. Your photos still look great and that mani would be my perfect staple one for work. Will have to give it a go! I havent read that happiness project yet either but heard about it through you tweeting about it so must do some more investigating! Hope you’ve had a great weekend Jenn.

    I love those colors! I always like how the ring finger a different color looks, but my friends and I always did our pinkies for good luck.. so I still go with my pinky. I wonder if I’ll ever switch :p

    By the way, I’m having a giveaway on my blog http://www.l0velindsey.com!

    I love the look of the sparkles on just one nail. A fun trend I really want to try. Maybe I’ll find some chunky gold glitter to layer over Peridot 🙂
