NAILS....

Everyone who knows me know, I am in love with nail polish.  I get a rush when I am buying my new OPI's... That's just me.  Some people like WEED... I love POLISH.  LOL... I just recently saw a picture of a manicure Katy Perry had and I was like, "Ummmm... WANT IT."  Now, let me just say this manicure is NOT for everyone.  It is for people with a lot of time and MONEY.
Katy had 76 crystals just on her THUMB ALONE.  I don't have that time... and needless to say... the money to get SWAROVSKY ish on my NAILS.  I am a makeup artist and for as much as I use my hands, uh hello???? It's not worth losing one of those dang crystals.  So I came up with a modified version of this mani, and I'm diggin' it...

 I had my girl Desiree, who also hooks up the Rockstar toes put the OPI Shellac silver polish on first.  Then I had purchased the nail gems from Boulevard Nail Supplies and had her use nail glue to adhere them to each of my ring fingers.  She then covered them with a top coat.  They are not as sparkly as Katy's blinged out phalanges, but I'm digging them just as much.  
 I like the contrast between the other nails and the "gemstone mama".... Love, love, love my nails and I love how Desiree can make my vision reality!

XOXO,
Lo Lo

P.S.  The Jimmy Choos I really want (fyi) LOL... Totally off topic, but had to throw it in the mix. 
Ahhhh... $1695.00

MAC QUITE CUTE COLLECTION...

I was in Mac yesterday, just browsin', when I happened upon the collection that JUST launched.  I LOVE IT... I am in love with the pastels right now, and these are fierce!  Here is the entire collection:

I fell in love with the nail polishes in Little Girl Type (pastel lavender) and Mischievous Mint (pastel blue/green):
P.S.  Don't mind the ding on the finger... LOL... Did that with my camera.
I also bought 3 lip products: Candy Yum Yum (makes Girl About Town NOT look hot pink) Playing Koi (which reminds me of Myth, but BETTER) and Bubble Tea Plushglass, which is the perfect nude gloss. 

The swatches don't do it justice.  Anyway, I will post pics soon.  AND YOU WILL DIE! ;)  The best part is that I got my discount on each of these limited edition products.  I'm in heaven.


XOXO,
Lo Lo
