2 from the Essie 2011 Summer Collection...

Morning :P While at Rite Aid this week, I saw they had all their Essies, B1G1 50% off, so I HAD to take advantage of it. I also saw they had put out the new 2011 Summer Collection, WHOO HOO. I only picked up two though, the others were pretty, but nothing special, IMO. Now these two.....stuck out right away. They are both 2 coats

Absolutely Shore




This, my fave is Smooth Sailing. I love the purple & teal shimmer in it. You can really see it in the 2nd pic in the bottle. It does show very well on the nail, I just had a hard time capturing it on camera :( Also, BONUS, this could have been a 1 coater if I would have been more careful. I love that

  2. oo smooth sailing reminds me of denim jeans <3 its sure to go with everything.

    Btw, i was wondering if you would trade some polishes (as i know you use mua) for some handmade jewelry? i'm a jewelry maker but im in the uk and i cant get many good polish where i am, so this way i get a chance of getting some nice polish from america. just send me a email or something if your interested :)

  3. I saw Smooth Sailing on another blog earlier today and instantly fell in love. Your pics just confirm that. I wish Essie was cheaper here! Looks like it's off to eBay for me...

  8. I picked the same two from that collection. I am wearing Absolutely Shore at the moment as well! I love it and even though I have a ton of colors in this family, it's still a little bit different than the others.

  17. Thanks you guys!! Smooth Sailing is soooo pretty, and def unique from all my other colors!!

    nekocrafts, ooohhh, do you have like a site, or photos you could email me of what you make. I did see the whale ring set, and fell in love. I love fun jewelry like that. My problem is, my ring size is 3.75 :( Is that too small for you to make?

    tahillia, :( No I don't have those yet. I haven't seen them in stores, and I have been trying like crazy to stay off online sites, lol. Not that it works.

    Shieldmaiden96, YAY, what a great first!!!
