Lovable Friday!

1. Kleancolor’s chunky holo nail polish colors

Like Miss Melificent herself, I adore a fun manicure. When I came across the above manicure from The Swatchaholic the other day, I knew I had to look into these colors more. Turns out: there are a ton! Even better? On BeautyJoint.com they’re only $1.75 a piece. I haven’t placed an order myself yet, but at that price I feel like you kind of can’t go wrong. I also found swatches of all the chunky holo colors on Swatch and Learnso check that out if you want to see how a particular color looks.

2. Odds In Your Favor print

I’m sure I’ve been on Society6 before, but I really fell down the rabbit hole the other night. If you haven’t checked the site out, you should rectify that situation immediately! It’s full to the brim with amazing work, all by independent artists. The above Hunger Games-inspired “Odds In Your Favor” print was one of my favorite finds.

3. Is Everyone Hanging Out Without Me?

Okay, full disclosure: I just bought this book today so I haven’t finished it yet, but I have been excited about it for months. Mindy isn’t much older than I am and she’s been a writer for The Office from the beginning. She’s up there with Tina Fey and Amy Poehler as far as my lady heroes go. Naturally, when I read excerpts from her book a few months ago, I got very excited. The “Best Friends Rights and Responsibilities” chapter is particularly perfect, with rules such as “I Will Hate and Re-Like People For You” and “We Sleep in the Same Bed.” Basically, I can’t wait to read the entire thing.

4. Pool at The Raleigh

I came across this image while browsing Pinterest and thought that pool looked like perfection. I looked into it and found out it’s in Meli’s town: Miami! Perhaps sometime I’ll make it to The Raleigh on a visit out that way. I envision a striped maillot de bain and a big floppy hat. Heaven!

Anyway, my lovelies, this will be my last post at Melificent! I had fun filling in and I hope you enjoyed this week. I’ll still be posting over on my blog and I’d love to see some of you there. Have a great weekend. :)

    Anika! I am a huge nail fienddddddd and bought five Kleancolors from BeautyJoint a few weeks back. I definitely recommend Chunky Holo Black. :)

    Looks like we’re going to have more nail stuff coming up on Melificent.com next week when I take over the reins! Watch out, lol!

      I am so with you! & yay – good to know. I’m always nervous ordering from a site I haven’t used, but that makes it much better.

      I’ll look forward to it. :)

    Hey! :) Thanks for the shout out. Glad that you enjoyed my swatches of the KleanColor Chunky Holos! They’re so much fun playing around with and using as layering polishes.

      No problem! :) I’m always interested to know how colors will actually look, so that was absolutely perfect.
