L.O.V.E.

Hello everyone!  I hope you are enjoying your long weekend so far!  First, I want to apologize for my extreme lack of posts these past few weeks.  Second, I would like to thank each of you for sticking around and or beginning to follow me even with my lack of posts.  As you may know I am getting married soon, once the wedding has passed and things have settled down around here... I will have some new posts for you guys and hopefully a blog sale.  I am busy this weekend preparing the house for some house guests arriving later this week and doing last minute wedding stuff.  

Exactly one week from today I am marrying my best friend!  I can't believe the day is almost here... I couldn't imagine my life without him at my side.  I truly can't wait to call Mr. M my husband!

New Page/Update

Hello everyone!  Hope you are doing well and I'm sorry for being MIA recently.  Things are truly starting to get hectic around here with the wedding so close.  Anyway, I added a new page to my sidebar.  There were some mixed opinions on my poll about book reviews.  So I decided my best option was to add a page and when I add to this page I will make a small post so those of you that want to read it can check it out.  Sound good!?

My weekend was spent cleaning the house since it will most likely be my last chance to clean it in its entirety before the big day.  I was able to somewhat organize my stash and I am a bit overwhelmed at how much I have!  I didn't realize how many polishes I have accumulated over the past however many months.  With this said a lot of them are untrieds, so my mission is to start swatching soon.  I have nail wheels to help me weed out dupes, etc.  So, I am hoping I will be able to have more posts soon while I start to swatch all my polishes and finish organizing them.  Depending on how many polishes I have dupes of or just don't like on myself, I might be able to do a small blog sale.  I will keep you all posted on this.  I am hoping to be back within the next two days with a real post.  

Thanks for reading!

25 Followers Giveaway!!!

Hello everyone!  I wanted to let everyone know that the posts might be even more scarce in the next few weeks, because my wedding is only a month away!  But, once that has passed I should be able to start having regular posts.  I will still be posting periodically until then.  I apologize for this, I hope you can forgive me and will still read my blog!  Anyway....

As promised I am having a giveaway for reaching 25 followers!  I'm so excited to share this with you guys and appreciate every one of you that have been reading my posts!

I have decided to have 2 different prizes... 1 prize for USA followers and 1 prize for international followers.  I recently read that a fellow blogger got nailed with an $800 fine for trying to ship polishes internationally.  I can't really take that risk, but I still wanted to do something for you guys.  So I have done something a little different for my international followers, but don't fear it is still nail related!

Swap!

Recently I had the opportunity to do a swap with a fellow nail blogger and new friend.  Emily found me on MUA and I am so glad she did! :)  I loved everything I received in the swap.

Here is what I received!


Check out her blog Live.Laugh.Love.Lacquer.  

I can't wait to try these lovelies out!  I didn't have any Eyeko polishes before this, so I am super excited to try them.  I also only had a couple Joe Fresh polishes from a previous swap and can't wait to try these ones out either! :)  

Is there any of the polishes you would like me to swatch first?

Thanks again Emily!
