Really dressed-up digits

I am all about a good dupe, and these Jessica polishes were supposed to be just like the Dior spring 2012 collection that were so beautiful.  I don't even know how many peach/orange polishes I bought trying to match this color.  So glad I finally was able to get Jessica Love Story!


I wasn't worried about the VNL because I knew I wanted to try this glitter.  I am really enjoying the glitter trend with oranges and yellows.  If it looks like an orange or a fire, I'm probably going to want it!  I couldn't resist Indie polish  The Polish Bar Citrus Squeeze.   I think it goes perfectly with Love Story - it's not so orange that the orange glitter gets lost, and not so yellow that the yellow glitter is hidden.  The white just pops on it.  I got some compliments on this combo.


You may think that's the end of the manicure, but you'd be wrong.  I added a new piece of nail jewelry, recently introduced by Chronicle Stones, called the Nail Veil.


Nail Veils come in several different styles  - some are long and pointy, some have jewels hanging on them, but I loved this one the best.  Unlike rhinestones or most other nail art, this is real jewelry, and it is reusable.  You can put polish on it, or topcoat, or nail glue, and then clean it with acetone, and you're ready to go again.  


Now that is a dressed-up manicure!  What do you think about nail jewelry?
