Sandy Beach

When I was in Seattle, I stumbled upon the one and only Butter London store at the Seattle airport. It was on the way to our terminal, so of course I had to make a quick visit. The store was so nice--I remember it having chandeliers and the walls were adorned with rows and rows of Butter London lacquers!!!!!

Even though I'm on a no-buy, I had to commemorate my visit by picking up some of their polishes. They have an on-going promotion depending on how many polishes you purchase, so I got two of my lemmings for $25. The one I'll be showing you today is Tart with a Heart, a bedazzling iridescent glitter! I paired it up with a nude accent for a functional mani since life's been more hectic than usual. I've never truly appreciated the non-distracting nature of a nude manicure until recently!

On a side note, I can finally cross Essie Topless and Barefoot off my wishlist, because L'Oreal Walk on the Beach is what I wanted it to be! The formula for Walk on the Beach was on the runny side, but it was perfect in 3 coats (:

How was Seattle??? My favorite local singer went to there! it broke my heart that she had to leave the Philippines but I'm hoping for the best because one of the reason for her move was to further expand her career as a singer. i hope she gets discovered there! i attended her farewell concert and had to wait for HOURS just to listen to her but it was worth it.

i bet seattle was brimming with inspiration! im looking forward to your posts about your visit (should you indulge us with snaps :)

Love the putty colored, L'Oreal and I love how you added glitter to just the index and middle fingers. Very nice. Soothing to the eye.

I would have never thought of using tart with a heart over a nude. Good call!

Love the combo of the glitter over the beige color! The glitters really brighten it up. :-)
