Nails of the Day: Spring Brights


Another Word of the Shay: Nails of the Day for you! My last NOTD was a fresh soft look with a pop. This time around I'm showcasing bright nails. Instead of one shade or an accent nail, I went for two shades alternating, of course you can do this in any pattern you'd like, (some refer to it as colour-blocking for your nails).

NOTD: Joe Fresh Spring Mani

(Joe Fresh Mint) 


Here's a new Nails Of The Day post for you!
I thought this was a great look using some fun Spring colours I just picked up.  I've been obsessed with mint lately, and it looks so lovely and delicate paired with creams and peaches, but I thought for a touch of whimsy, I'd throw in some dots in a tangerine orange, (which is a huge "It" shade this season).

DUPE ALERT: OPI Nicki Minaj Collection VS. Sinful Colors



Earlier this year, OPI launched a collaboration collection with Nicki Minaj, for Spring 2012. When I spotted it at my local Lawton's drugs, I was really interested in the three creams in the collection, which would have rung up at $29.97CAD before taxes. But before heading to the register I headed over to the Sinful Colors section and noticed that they were on sale 2 for $6, (regularly $3.99CAD each here, I know you lucky folks in the US can get these for as low as $1.99USD and even cheaper on sale). As you can guess by the title and the above photo, I walked away polishes, just not the ones I had expected.

Cute Coral Flats

Our word today is Coral. There are many shades of coral, but in general it's a pinkish orange. Sometimes it leans more pink, other times it's very orange, and you also have more primary red corals. No matter the shade, coral is yet again, one of the "It" colours for Spring and Summer and a colour I'm a big fan of. 

I've been looking for some cute coral flats for a couple months now,  this week I stopped by Payless and SCORE! I found these little beauties. So cute and feminine with their peep toe and flower detail.
