Happy Monday, Kitschies! I had a pretty good weekend. I got to have some alone time with the hubs on Friday night. We went to dinner then a bar to see one of his favorite bands (
Mr Gnome) perform. It was a super small place, so no matter where we were, we had good seats. I enjoyed their set and it's always nice to "find" a new group. Then Sunday, I got to skate! WOOT!! I was supposed to go to practice on Saturday but I didn't have my helmet and the woman who has it wasn't at that practice, so I got caught up on some of my shows. I ended up skating about 9 miles and my legs feel really good despite not having been on my skates a lot lately. I fell on my butt trying to walk down a hill instead of skating it and now I feel like I have whiplash (FUN!), but other than that, it was a good outing! LOL
I have a mani that's been sitting in my pending folder for a LONG time. I couldn't tell you when I wore this. If I had to guess, I'd say July-ish? I know...I'm bad. I'm trying my best to get all my pics prepped - I'm getting there!! On to the pretties, k?
This is OPI Austin-Tatious Turquoise from their Spring Texas collection. It's a gorgeous glass-flecked turquoise with a faint shift of purple. Sorry this pic is so blurry, but it's the only one I got that captures the purple flash.
Here's a flash pic. It's such a pretty, pretty color. The downside? It's super sheer! I ended up using a base color (LA Colors Static Electricity - a blue creme) and then using at least 2, if not 3, coats of ATT.
Natural light. I like that this polish changes a bit depending on the light source. It looks a lot more blue in this pic than turquoise, but no matter what way you look at it, it's great! It kind of reminds me of a sparkling blue pool.
What do you think of this blue beauty? Do you own it? I only picked up this one and
Do You Think I'm Tex-y from the OPI Texas collection. Though I'm thinking about picking up the orange "sorbet", too.
Have a great rest of your day!

Pretty. I might have to do a similar color on my nails soon. Maybe tomorrow.
That's a lot of skating girl!!!
I LOVE that color! It's so pretty. When you were colors on your nails, do you coordinate your outfits with that color? Inquiring minds want to know. =)
9 miles? That's far!
I can't remember if I got this one or not; I think so, but I sure haven't worn it if I did. I have worn Houston We Have a Purple and that made me want to get the rest of the jellies but I haven't gotten around to that yet.
I confess that I don't know how to skate. I'm so bad at balancing. It is seriously annoying. :(
I don't think I have this polish but the shade looks pretty. I think that I have a similar shade but it has more shimmer on it. I will have to take another look at my stash. :)
Not sure what I'm more impressed with – the blue or the flash was able to capture the blue. :)
I'm not too crazy about this one. The colour looks pretty and everything, but it just looks to sheer for me. I almost picked it up once, it's much prettier in person. But there is just something that bugs me about this polish, don't know what it is.
