Revlon's Popular

Well once I started reading the blogs again I had quite the lemming for Revlon's Starry Pink. A few days ago I happened by the Revlon display in Walmart and noticed Popular. It looked identical to Starry Pink so I snatched it up. Upon further research I found that it is a re-release of Starry Pink with a different name. Tonight I was in Target and actually found a Starry Pink sitting in the Popular marked area. So I snagged it. I wanted a back up anyway.

I adore the milky pink and silver glitter combo. I did something similar on New Year's with some polishes I already had totally unaware of Starry Pink/Popular's existence. Haha.

The application was great. I was surprised. The only thing that was strange is I had some pin prick like dots all over some nails after I had applied top coat. I'm assuming it just didn't react well to my top coat. It was so pretty that I didn't even care.





I also must say my nails are quite shorter in these photos than normal. Over the past several months I've been using Qtica and I have been able to grow my nails out longer and stronger than I use to keep them. Love it. Unfortunately I suffered a break on my index finger for the first time in ages. Snagged it on a shoe of all things. So i filed down accordingly.

Hope you enjoyed my first polish post in what seems like forever! Haha.

Thanks for reading!

Long time no see...

Hello. I've neglected this blog for quite some time. My last post was May 8, 2011. Wow.

My life changed so much in the last 7 to 8 months. I started doing what I love. I shot a 2 time National Champion Baseball team (South Carolina Gamecocks) Back to Back baby! I can't even put into words how amazing that trip to Omaha was. I continued on in the Fall to shoot a Gamecock football team that made history. 11-2 record. Fantastic. Thus a lot of traveling was done in this time period.

I gained a new best friend. She and I got to do so much of this fun traveling together. Especially during baseball season. I became a more outgoing, fun loving girl. I started to find myself again. When you go through several years of illness and all this happens it's like you are reborn. I still have my struggles with my health but I'm in a much better place. Overall there were just so many changes in my life. So many crazy happenings. It's been quite the ride.

I honestly never had much time to get on Blogger and look at things or even post. All my energy was else where. But I wanted to check in and let those who still follow know I'm well. Maybe every now and then I'll post. With that said we're about 37 or so day's out from Carolina Baseball beginning again so inevitably my focus will shift back to that. I've been counting down the days to College Baseball starting again since the night we won the 2nd National Title. I'm crazy I know. I'm ok with that though.

Thanks for sticking around if you have. Be blessed in 2012!
