Neon Color-Blocked Nails

Step one:

Paint your base color. This will also be the bottom color. Let it dry completely.


Step two:

Place circle stickers on your finger and line it up according to your desired proportion of color.

Step three:

Pick your contrasting color and paint it on the top part of your nails right above the circle sticker .

Step four:

Allow the nail polish to dry completely before peeling off the sticker.

Step five:

Add any decorative designs you want or simply just apply a top coat when you're finished! Voila



On my left hand, I used a neon pink base coat from PIXI in Summer Pink, and on my right I used the beige neutral polish from Julep in Pippa. I decided to fix the uneven result with a black nail art pen (Sallie Hansen), and I got carried away, and decided to design peter pan collared shirts on my nails. ( I am totally digging the peter pans right now).

Ootd

I paired up a orange colored sheer hi-low shirt with the BDG jeggings I recently bought at Urban Outfitters. I wore my geometric shaped cut out booties and carried my taupe purse. I had a hard time finding outerwear to go with this outfit. I have a a lot of neutral shade going on, AND I also had a lot of neutral jackets, but none of them really went with well together with my outfit! I had this problem last time as well. I need to decide how, and what color outwear I can pull off.  

Scrubbing it

Everytime I wear this printed long sleeve shirt, I get so many comments at work about how they thought from afar that I had my arms tatted up. Seriously...even people who have seen me in this  many times before, continue to get psyched out. My shirt is a peach color, so I guess from faaaaaaaaar away it could pass for flesh color or..... people just have poor vision :)

Babysitting Kinda Day

I've got the little ones today. My nephews are 5 and 2... Almost 6 and 3. Tues are usually my designated day with them. Noah (5) gets out of kindergarten early I'm tues, and I usually try to do fun things with them. We played UNO and and dodge ball .

Evan (2) had to take a nap and the pictures you see are of him falling asleep on me.

I don't get accessorized when I'm with the little guys. And I always carry a crossbody bag.

I also don't always have my hair or make done. I was inspired to photoblog even on my not-so-cute days. Trying to keep it real!

Scrubbing at Work day 4

Another late post and another 14 hr shift. I clocked out at 3:30 am but I stuck around til 5am to "hang out". I drove home and was able to see the sun rise! Beautiful :)
