Holidays=Glitter

Hi everyone, one day closer to Friday!  So last night I gave eggs a try.  I went all out and ate a three egg and cheese omelet.  I didn't really like eggs before I was allergic to them, then when I couldn't eat them I wanted them all the time :)  It seemed to go really well.  I tried eggs maybe two months ago and was sick for days, this time no hives and I don't feel sick at all so I think that's a good sign.

So I found this e-card on pinterest the other night, and that is exactly how I'm feeling right now.  I think people either fall into one of two categories 1.) They wish people would stop with Christmas and just focus on Thanksgiving or 2.) They want all things Christmas right now.  I am category 2 :)  I'm ready for the music, I've got tons of present shopping done, and most of all I'm ready to decorate and wrap (which I haven't for the record).  I had never really been that into Thanksgiving but then with food allergies it turned the one food-centric holiday into one that I dreaded.  Last year my family and husband went to Florida and spent Thanksgiving on the beach and it was the best Thanksgiving I've ever had.  I'd love to know if you're a "1" or a "2" and why, no judgements here...my blog name has Piggies in the title after all ;)

So now that Halloween has come and gone, boo, I feel like we are officially into the holiday season.  To me, holidays mean glitter, not only in the decorations but also on the nails.  It seems like every mani I do lately just begs to have glitter added to it and this combo below was one I especially liked.

I had never worn OPI My Dogsled is a Hybrid as a full mani and boy was that a bad choice.  It's so dang pretty!  To me it's like a vibrant spearmint color and I'm now obsessed with it.  I wore it on its own for a day and then made it a little bit extra special with an accent nail of OPI Wonderous Star, which is a mix of metallic black and gold microglitter from last year's holiday collection.  I just loved this together!




I can't wait to show you guys my next glitter combo, the one I'm wearing today, but it's a secret.  Thanks for putting up with my food and holiday shenanigans!

  2. My Dogsled is a Hybrid is possibly, in my opinion, the color that looks the ABSOLUTE prettiest on you. Man! It's gorgeous on its own, but when you pair it with that gorgeous glitter n your hands, it's downright perfect! :)
