I'm Back!

Hi everybody!  Happy Monday!! I am back from my mini vacay, and it was JAM PACKED! I arrived Thursday night, and Brooke picked me up from the airport. We had dinner at my aunts and I got to see my cousin, Carla, which was so awesome! Hi Carla!! :) Love you and miss you already! 

 The next day Brooke and I met up with Traci from The Trace Face Philes, and Cassandra from The Manilogues! We went to a bunch of supply stores in Philly, and it was awesome!! It was so nice to meet up with fellow bloggers and get some good deals on polish! 

On Saturday I got to see all of my mom's side of my family! We all went out to dinner to celebrate my grandmother's 80th birthday! It was a lot of fun, and I got to hang with my cousins... Hi Tommy, Kristina, and Karla!!!!  <3 The next day my family drove up to CT to visit more family. I got to see my other grandmother and more cousins and aunts and uncles (Can you tell I'm Italian!?) and it was so great to see everyone. It's so difficult to say goodbye, but worth every second of seeing them. 

Today I wanted to share Color Club's Covered in Diamonds. It's tons of large, iridescent flakes in a clear base. It reminds me of stained glass on the nail. The only thing with this polish, is that the flakes are so large they can curl up and stick up off of your nail. It takes about two top coats to smooth everything out... probably a top coat of gelous would be good, but I only used Seche Vite. I have Nubar's Pasadena Purple on underneath, and I really need to do a post of that color on its own. It's gorgeous! But as you can see I have some tip wear, so I really want to give the color the proper credit it deserves.

I have a ton of swatching to do, so stay tuned, and as always, thanks for reading! :)
