Post Wedding Check-in

Well, I have made it through all the insanity and I think I managed to not loose my mind. lol We are now moved into our new place (though not completely) and we had a lovely wedding, and we're enjoying our "family honeymoon" this weekend. I'll be back to posting regularly, but initially, I will no longer be making daily posts. I will, however be posting at least once a week while I try to get our daily lives back to normal and get the lil one set up for the new school year.

Without further ado - I bring you a wedding photo! For the moment, it's the only one I have access to but I promise to post at least one more of the entire dress.

Of course, since this is a nail blog - this entry would not be complete without a photo of my manicure for the day!! I did my nails with Gelish and I took this picture almost a week later so there is some growth going on there. I still love the look!

The flowers are from my daughter's bouquet. She was one of my bridesmaids and I had to get the nails with the flowers becauses I did like my wedding flowers. I wonder how much of that is because I did my own flowers? haha! 

That's all for this week - I'll see you all next Sunday! Have a nailicious week!

MY Bridal Nails

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday! As I previously promised, today I'll be showing off the nails I plan on wearing for my own wedding. This will be my third marriage (his first) and we've decided to keep it VERY low key and casual. I will still be wearing a dress - but it'll be a tie-dyed strapless cotton sundress. Orange and blue. After six kids and two previous marriages, I'm just so far beyond a "white" dress it's not even funny.

I already have matching jewelry that was made for me by a friend and I promise to post pix of the completed look when it's closer to the big day.

The dress is tye-dyed and the perfect matching mani for it is a watermarble!! It just don't get any better than that. Here's another shot of it.

Of course, my favorite orange shade is China Glaze's "Riveting" from the Hunger Games Collections and that's the orange I used here. The Navy/purple is just a cheap polish I picked up on sale at CVS and is from my personal nail polish stash. Yah, I really do keep a separate set of nail polishes just for myself. I mean if a client really really likes it, sure I'll use it. It is just one of the few polishes that I have purchased with myself, rather than clients, in mind.

I hope you enjoyed seeing a preview peek of my wedding attire and thank you for reading!
