To Green or Not to Green

While I would love to pretend that I am a daring cosmetic and nail colour person, the reality is that that couldn't be farther from the truth. Oddly enough I am fairly daring when it comes to more permanent things, such as clothing and hair. Pylon orange coloured jeans...wore them two days ago, shaving half of my hair off like Rhianna's current 'do'...done multiple times, leopard patterned jeans...had to be the first to get them...you get the idea here.

When it comes to my nails I am a orange, red, pale pink and almost black kind of girl. Did I mention orange? Green nails have been in the media the past few summers; 2 years ago it was emerald and jewel toned shades that had magazine editors' raving, while last summer it was kacky and forest green. Neither of which I was daring enough to try. This summer it is mint or sherbet green. I was up for the dare...well kind of!

I have seen girls wearing their nails in this shade and it looks great but I feel out of place with all ten digits, it just isn't 'me'. One mint green nail is all I could swing but I like the outcome and it isn't too childish looking.

Nail Polish for Toes

With warm weather finally starting to arrive (well some days at least) it is time to start getting out the open toed shoes and sandels. This means you can finally start showing off all the fun colours of nail polish you have been rocking all winter. This also means that you can try out some of the lighter, fresher colours that have come out recently. Here are 4 of my favorite spring colours!

CHANEL - Orange Fizz

OPI - Planks A Lot
OPI - Y'all Come Back You Hear         
CHANEL -  Lotus Rouge
