Happy July Fourth!

Hi guys (girls, too)!

I can't believe it's the fourth of July! Summer is going by so quickly! To be honest, growing up, Fourth of July was my favorite. It was the middle of summer, everything was always in a happy place for the fourth. It was always a happy occasion. As a family, we always go watch fireworks and cookout for the fourth.  I love July fourth!

Moving on, Things have been nice lately, days by the pool, going on evening walks with Adam and our puppy (Comet), and just lounging around. I love lazy summer days. I've been thinking about my Fourth mani for a little while, I wasn't sure what I wanted to do, but finally decided.

Using Zoya's Sooki, China Glaze's White Cap and Blue Paradise, I made my Independence Day nails! I decided to honor our Flag! Stars and stripes!

Looks like my camera wasn't cooperating... Sorry about that. 

I hope you have the best fourth of July, what are your family traditions?

Laziness has gotten the best of me.

Okay guys. I got married last week, and I seriously have not painted my nails since. I have been going bare ALL WEEK! I cannot remember the last time this has happened. It was so awful. All of my nails broke off and look like a 6 year olds. Seriously.

Ew, sorry this is a really disgusting picture, but you have to see it. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET MARRIED!

Ew. Ew. Ew. Ew.

Anyways, FINALLY I painted my nails this morning (when I should be working on my summer classes homework).  True Blood comes back on tonight, so I thought I'd celebrate (as much as I wanted to slap some You Don't Know Jacques, I didn't). 

This is Zoya's Sooki! A magnificent red creme that looks amazing in one coat! I'm still pretty weary about Zoya's formula. It's still not... just....right. Maybe I'm being weird, but it's just different and I don't know if I like it. 

A quick picture, this color looks so different with flash, sunlight, artificial light, etc. So pretty.

 Look how weird all my nails look in this picture. They're all a different color!

 Sunlight:

 Red nail polish always reminds me of my Grandma, it's what she ALWAYS had on her nails, and thanks to her, I inherited her love of polish. Since I wear her engagement ring as my own, it just gave me the willies having red nail polish on, so I thought I'd photograph them both for you!

 Man my fingers look chunky. ha

So there it is! Zoya's Sooki! Make sure to tune in to HBO tonight at 9 for the season premiere of True Blood (one of me and Lindsey's favorite TV shows)!
