Essie~Winter 2010/2011

With all the buzz about Spring Collections popping up here and there, I thought I'd better get this amazing Winter Collection up for you to check out.  Essie's Winter 2010/2011 is made up of 6 beautiful creme polishes.  I have 4 to share with you.  I found these pretties at Ulta.

Hot Coco is just that.  It is the color of a warm cup of hot chocolate.

Smokin' Hot is a beautiful dusty grey-lavender-mushroom creme.  It is a bit darker on the nail than in this picture.

Masquerade Belle is a great dark warm red creme.

Luxedo is the favorite amoung this collection for me.  It is a black-purple jelly!  Absolutely gorgeous!

Confetti~Happy Birthday & Moonstruck

CVS has some new goodies for us polish lovers.  I took a few days this weekend and took my mom and kids to the beach in Northern Califonia.  While I was there, I managed to sneak into a CVS and pick up a couple of bottles of Confetti Polish in Happy Birthday and Moonstruck.  They were only $1.99 each and I must say I was impressed with the colors.

Happy Birthday is a purple with purple micro glitter.
It really is purple, rather than this blueish purple color my camera picked up.

Moonstruck is a gorgeous mushroomy taupe creme.
Don't mind the dent in the ring finger.  Wow, it really showed up good!

I don't have any information on the company who makes Confetti polish.  I can't find any info anywhere.  But I am hoping to check out my CVS tonight and pick up a few more!

And a few of my weekend get-away :)
The kids playing on the beach.  The weather was really nice.  It was actually about 70 degrees in this picture, just no sunshine

The hillside across the street from the beach

I love this rock. 
We went to Bodega Bay, CA and up the coast a bit.  We saw whales, yes whales, the kids built sandcastles and played in the ocean.  It was a great couple of days!  I grew up going to Bodega Bay in the summer.  This is one of my most favorite places I have been.  Thanks for letting me share :)

Color Club~Rebel Debutante

Today I have the other 3 polishes from the Color Club Debutante set I found at Ross.  These 3 are my favorite of the set.  High Society, Ms Socialite, and Who Are You Wearing  are three beautiful cremes.  Out of all seven, these gave me the least amount of application trouble.

High Society is a great mushroomy, taupe creme.

Ms Sociaite is a pretty, bright plum creme.

I wanted Who Are You Wearing sooooo bad!  This color did not disappoint, either.  It is really hard to descibe this color.  It is a very light, pale, greyed lavendar creme.  I thought it was going to be whiter, but the touch of lavendar in it made it a great and very unique color.

I am glad I waited and was lucky enough to find this set at Ross.  The crazy thing about this set, was that it wasn't labeled with the polish names.  Guess that's why is was $7.99 at Ross :)
