Mani Monday: [Kiss on the Chic]

OPI's Kiss on the Chic is probably my favorite of the "natural" polishes I have...all four of them lol. It applies easily with no streaking. One coat was used in the picture above.

Fashion Friday [2]: BULA Festival

Attended Asia Pacific Cultural Center's 14th Annual celebration BULA! featuring the island of Fiji a few weekends ago. We (UW's Micronesian Islands Club) were set to perform in the afternoon, but had a lot of downtime to enjoy the festival as well. I will be doing a follow-up post with more pictures from that day but for now, this is just to show what I wore :)

men's dress shirt: thrifted | belt: Target | bottom: GapKids | shoes: Target

watch: Fossil | cuffs: David Smallcombe | stretch: jo bird jewelry | silver link: Robert Keene

Bonus outfit: my costume for the cultural performance!

Mani Monday: [Black with Envy] + Silver Crackle

 two coats "Black with Envy", one coat silver crackle, topcoat

"Black with Envy" is Revlon's dupe for the ever-so-popular Chanel "Black Pearl."

A quick note on the LAsplash silver crackle: don't buy it. I can't speak for all the colors in their "crackle'd" range, but for this particular one, it dries to a matte white-gray finish. Although a topcoat does turn it back into a metallic silver, if the topcoat doesn't soak all the way into the layer, there are still areas that end up a whitish color. It only cost a few dollars, but still, disappointing.
