NOTW: Butler Please

Hello beauts! It's #ManicureMonday and I have special nails to show you guys. You know why?
Because it's the first day of school and I'm back in college for the fall semester. I wanted to do a bright color that was still in the summer category. I have found that perfect color! This cobolt blue called Butler Please by Essie (my favorite brand of nail polish). It's ultra rich in color but unfortunetly it dries matte which is not to my liking. I added a coat of my favorite top coat, Seche Vite. If you guys haven't tried it you must go and buy it now! First time I ever heard about it was when Julia, from Misschievous, mentioned it in one of her really old videos. I absolutely love her and she's the one who got me into make-up. 
Seche Vite might be a little bit on the expensive side but I highly recommend it as it does it's job much better than most top coats. But, there is a down side to Butler Please.... I ave noticed that it chips super easily. More than most nail polishes. Now, I don't know if this is just because my nails are long and are more prone to getting hit by things but this usually doesn't happen so I'm pretty upset about that. But, I can't complain, it lasted long enough for my first day. 
For those of you going to school today good luck and have a great day and week!

Get these polishes here on Amazon! Plus, I believe this color is perfect with the
glitter polish Set in Stone by Essie

#ManicureMonday: Turquoise and Caicos

Hello lovely readers, so everyone has seen the gorgeous color Turquoise and Caicos. I've worn it a million times before, here, and here. But, you can't blame me because the color is so perfect for Summer. There is something different about my nails though, can you guess? It's the shape! I'm trying out the super trendy almond shape. In the next few weeks my nails will probably grow and it will be more noticeable, but for now I'm trying out short almond nails. What do you guys think? 
Is the almond nail your kind of trend or not? 
Another thing I wanted to talk about is how to get your nails to be a little bit different. I hate wearing something so much I get bored with it so I've been looking for nail inspirations and have come up with a few cute options I want to try out. Stay tuned!

Nail Inspiration: Almond Nails

Hello everyone, so a huge trend that has been going on for a while is the almond nails. I am totally obsessed with them and want to try them out. I like them very simple though because I find the length to be dramatic enough for me. Here are a few ideas I want to try out!


The rings make it even cooler!!



Gaga had them way before it was a major trend! Nude shade to make it less dramatic.


Gorgeous mint color for summer!
