Urban Decay Bang and Chaos Nail Polish for Summer 2014 – Swatches & Review
Because I have a good friend who went to Syracuse, it’s hard for me to see blue and orange together and not think of their school colors. Which is exactly what crossed my mind when the new Urban Decay Summer 2014 nail colors, Bang and Chaos arrived, in the midst of March Madness.
I’ve made my feelings about bright blues very apparent (hint: I LOVE them) so, obviously, I’m biased. However, everyone I’ve seen while wearing Chaos has flipped for the shade as well, so you know it’s good.

#ManiMonday – DIY Subtle Sparkle with Essie Resort Fling
It’s no secret that Essie Resort Fling is one of my fave shades for spring. The peachy, coral creme jelly (sorry the word “crelly” makes my skin crawl), is near perfect. The only thing that could make it better is that subdued crystal sparkle in shades like Sunday Funday and Naughty Nautical.

OPI MLB Collection Nail Art for the Cleveland Indians #RollTribe
Yesterday was the Cleveland Indians home opener and, in spite of the rain delays, wind and overall crazy weather, they managed to pull out a major win over the Twins. Now, because I suffer enough with weather during Browns season, I never go to opening day at The Jake (sorry Progressive), but I cheer from home with #RollTribe pride.
