I really wanted to try gel nail polish, so I put it on my Christmas list, and lo-and behold my secret Santa sister got a kit for me (along with a cute purse)!
The only thing is that my sister and I couldn't be any more different when it comes to decorating (this includes our homes, nails, and fashion, etc.) For example: you walk in her house and bam - you're in a Martha Stewart magazine. Shades of white or "eggshell" with one splash of color. You walk into mine, and you might as well be in a Morrocan temple, splashes of color & pattern everywhere. So I joke that she's too subtle. Once she went to get her hair done in the trendy "Ombre" style, but she asked for it to be subtle. She came home 3 hours afterwards and looked NO different in my eyes. LOL - my eyes can't decipher subtle shades! Had she gone blonde, I would've noticed that!
So it wasn't any surprise that she chose this shade for me. Sally Hansen "Shell We Dance". And it was no surprise that I had to bling it up at least a little! I've been wearing it for a few days now, and I'm finding it surprising that the shade is growing on me............................
............................. subtlety growing on me, that is. ;)
