i’m wearing: “off the shoulder” by essie (c/o a klout perk) and the nail art is “copper penny” by revlon.

i haven’t been painting my nails as much as i used to and certainly haven’t been using my nail stamp kit as much either. but i just cut my nails down really short and decided it was time for a new mani! i used my nail stamp for the dots and then realized…it probably would have been just as quick and easy to use my nail pen…lol. i tend to make things harder than they have to be. but i am excited because i just realized that this color matches the dress i am wearing to happy hour tonight perfectly! it’s the little things, right?

    Love it! And I can’t believe you’ve done it yourself, I can safely say I’d never be able to.

    I love the colors and the dots! You must have major patience, though. I know I would never have the patience or eyesight to do that! lol.

    Your manicure looks great! The essie off the shoulder is quite similar to tour de finance I received at the Birchbox event! I also love the gold dots! Great birchbox haul! I should have used my points to get kerastase products! But no…I redeemed it for my smashbox foundation and stila eyeliner.

    Hahaha, I love matching my manicure to my outfits, too. I love the dots–I’ve been *kind of* looking at nail stamp kits lately, and your post just reminded me that it’s definitely time to pull the trigger…
