Now that August is around the corner, makers are taking their inspiration from musicals. For the month of August, Christy took her inspiration from Grease and brought you KBShimmer Sandy.

I basically spent my early 20’s traveling all around the world, and I am grateful that I had these opportunities every second of my life. I started traveling during my year abroad and basically did not stop until my mid 20’s. This was possible because after I got back home from France, I took a job with Air France and then with Delta. It was such an awesome time in my life, and I always look back on my experiences as opportunities that helped shape the person I am today. Today I have a travel inspired collection to share with you so naturally I am excited. The KBShimmer Wanderlust Collection is a beautiful 8 piece collection that I am sure you will enjoy.

Hey there! How’s it going today and thanks so much for stopping by my little corner of the nail interwebs. I feel like I’ve gotten so lazy lately; not just with my blog but with life in general. What can do you do to get yourself motivated? I feel that working from home makes it very easy to not want to do stuff because I basically move from my bed to my desk to the couch and finally back to bed. Now, if I were a smart person, I would use the time I save from not having to commute to go to the gym or something active. Since the weather has been nice here, with the exception of some windy days that make my allergies act up, I have no excuses to not get out. And since I’m speaking about being lazy what better way is there to talk to you about Incoco Coconut Nail Art . Badam tssss! Ok, ok, I don’t really consider this lazy nail art, but it is convenient and fast. Let me show you a few patterns below. Continue reading “Incoco Coconut Nail Art”
