How Do You Prefer Your Nails?

30 May

I came across this nifty little nail chart on Pinterest today and it definitely made me wonder what nail shapes everyone else preferred. I’ve seen these shapes change throughout the years depending on current trends etc. I was a ‘square girl’ early on and now I’m totally a short and ‘squoval girl’.  What nail shape are you?

Beautiful Emerald Rings!

1 May

I just thought I’d let you all know what I’ve been looking at all day long on Pinterest. Big, beautiful Emerald rings!  I get on my kicks…..some days it’s a certain bag or pair of heels that I can’t get out of my head, but today it’s EMERALDS and only Emeralds!!!  Check out these beauties below.

 

Emerald Emerald2 I really appreciate the beauty of a natural Emerald, it’s my birthstone so I’ve had ample opportunity to get a ‘lab created’ emerald and although they provide much more sparkle than a natural Emerald, I’ve always loved the slightly flawed- almost dull look of a natural stone, just so pure and beautiful.emerald3
