Gone mint-crazy

This cute message is made by my friend Ioana at Papurr Project ^_^

I’ve never had a favorite color, not really, not like most people do. If you ask my friend Teo what her favorite color is the answer will definitely be green. If you asked her 5, 10, 15 years ago, the answer would’ve been, I’m sure, the same. I, for one, have never known the answer to this question. I could always tell you what colors I don’t like, but these, as well, changed as time went by. In my old age (just kidding, I have never been younger! 🙂 ) I can say that I don’t really dislike colors anymore – because it’s not nice to discriminate, you guys! 🙂 –  but let’s just say that I enjoy some color combinations more than I do others.

New Year’s Eve nail bling

Well, not literally. Although they were pretty shiny.

Before New Year’s I had my latest appointment to get my nails done. All fine and dandy except I had no idea what they wanted to look like – which is so unlike my-control-freak-self. But then I was given the most wonderful news – they were finally long enough to be painted a dark color, so of course I went for black. (I am exaggerating, it wasn’t literally the most wonderful news, but it was pretty good considering that I’ve been wanting for like 2 months to paint my nail a dark color, but couldn’t. Why do you guys have to take things so literal all the time…GOD!)

My Christmas nails

I know it’s January, d’oh, but I was so busy with visits during the holidays that I just didn’t have the time to post anything (or take pictures, as you can see, took the pictures with my phone). And in any case, I’m not ready to give up Christmas just yet, I will hold on for dear life – already took down my Christmas tree, whaddaya people want from me. I am not ready to accept the idea that there’s a year left until the next one and I haven’t had the time to fully enjoy it since I was in college. Anyway, I was saying…

The controversial manicure

This is a three-way love story. Between me, my nails and my nail artist. It may not seem so at first, but hear me out.

I used to have awful nails. I still have difficult nails, because they are short and narrow. Well, before, they were short, narrow, soft and always exfoliating. My hands looked like the ones of a 12 year-old biting his nails.

Being a girly-girl

This weekend I went to the seaside with my boyfriend and one of our favorite activities is to visit all the resorts and find nice places to have a coffee and spend some time together. Because the weather wasn’t nice enough for sunbathing, not to mention the traditional kind of bathing, we wanted to do something fun and so we searched for some rides in all the resorts – but being off-season, there were none that were functional. So we walked around doing touristy stuff.

Wandering in some souvenir-shops, I found a good deal on Gabrini nail-polishes (a Turkish cosmetics company, if I am not mistaken): beautiful shades at a low price. And as you can see, I went a little overboard with my purchase, buying seven different colored nail-polishes altogether. Talk about being an overly-excited girly-girl who can’t make up her mind! And I got even more excited when the sales lady told me that I can choose an extra one just because I purchased so many! So I wound up buying 8 bottles of nail polish at the low price of approximately 9 EUR.
