Dany Platforms & Essie Spring Polish
(Jessica Simpson)


Jessica Simpson Dany in pewter. Thanks, Zappos! Close-Up/Sneak Peek.

Essie Spring 2010 colors.
[L-R]: Lilacism, Neo Whimsical, Pop Art Pink, Red Nouveau, Tart Deco and Van D'Go.

Can you guess the four I chose?



Lately I've been:
Trying out new recipes. Last night I made Angel hair, lemon shrimp, tomato basil pasta. I've invented a new garlic bread (extra olive oil) and tried out chewy gingersnap cookies, with molasses. I'm also catching up on my reading. I just finished Speak by Laurie Halse Anderson. My attention was held captive the entire time by the narration given through the main character's thinking process rather than actually speaking out loud. Now, I'm delving into a sea of Judy Blume. Ah the nostalgia!

Aren't the pewters gorge?

I remember trying them on with my gf and she and I were suprised at how cool they are because the silver is like a gunmetal and looks so cool against the dark wood.

Now you have two to play with! what about black??

ps. not so interesting word verifacation again :-/

steph said...

I get that they're hot and we all like them but must we all do the SAME thing at the same time? Rumi's been rocking hers in almost all her recent pics, it's okay to wear something different.

bravegrrl said...
