Wish List: Some Poolside Party Nails (China Glaze)

My friend is so cool to offer sending me new polishes.. yay! I can't contain my excitement *winks*. I plan to email her with list of brands and colors and I spent a lot of time online trying to check swatches of pretty bloggers, other websites, etc.  Some great brands are not available locally *wails*.  I noticed this from China Glaze collection and wanted one.  It's summer here in where I live and this is just perfect!

Since I have not received mine yet, you can check out these cool swatches from Dainty Darling Digits.

The Sun, the Sea and of course - the Nail!

Just got back from an exhausting but enjoyable trip.  We went to a 6 hour cruise yesterday, tried fishing (with no luck LOL) and ate and ate some more :)  

I love this picture... reminding of an escape from the city! :)

At some point, we all thought it's gonna rain with clouds forming and getting dark-- but it didn't yey! :P  It was cloudy but we all felt sticky.  It was humid.  The sun was soooo bright when we started sailing but then these clouds hid the sun. 

Here's my nail-do yesterday -- I shopped for new polishes as I have stated on my previous post http://hueandme-jan.blogspot.com/2010/04/my-shopping-bag.html and tried each and every single one of them.   Looks cute to me (tee-hee!)

I thought this was cool.  A cold beer, the sea, the sun, nice escape from the city and colorful nails :)

Summerrific! Refreshing Watermelons and Mango Shake

Remembering that I will be enjoying summer to the fullest this weekend, let me share to you 2 nail do's from last week :)

First one is an attempt to recreate the watermelon design that I have seen so many times... Again, I'm new to this.  Forgive me if it's not so pretty... I like them though as I worked hard to get it done :)

The second one's my own design.  I have not worn yellow before but this one's pretty subtle.  I created a white flower with green leaves.  I used no name polishes by the way so I can't tell you the exact color.  I'll be posting my "babies" (nail polish bottles) soon so you'll see that I'm a "no brand" gal.  :) Been neglecting my cuticles recently so don't mind them :(

I promise to give you clear pictures in the future, those were taken using my phone.. sorry... 

Packing my clothes while uploading pics and typing... Comments, suggestions are welcome... Give me love...

XO,
