While on a weekend getaway filled with wedding research in the area where we are getting married, I wanted to find a great location for my girls to get manis and pedis for the big day. I am happy to say I not only found the perfect spot, but I also left feeling relaxed and pampered while marking another wedding task off of the checklist! YAY ME!
Wedding planning is a tough job, but somebody’s gotta do it! HA! I mean come on – I, of course, needed to test the spot out to make sure the pampering is of the level that my ladies deserve!
I am now in search of the perfect purple hue to rock for my big day. I tried out China Glaze Anklets of Amethysts – a light purple with a dash of sparkle. Ok, I must admit and I am LOVING the new cotrast polish color trend right now. While I would not rock it on my big day, it was the perfect mani for a beach weekend of fun. I opted to use China Glaze Solar Power – a yellow gold with a dash of sparkle. I absolutely adored my mani and pedi for the weekend, however, I am still in search of the perfect polish for my bridal mani and pedi. Guess I will just have to ”suffer” through some more manis and pedis until I find it!
So, does anyone have any purple polish suggestions for my lil’ sis?!?

Did the nail tech look at you like you’re crazy when you asked for the accent nail? Mine do
I want to try OPI Sapphire in the Snow but I haven’t been able to find it in the nail shop or at ULTA. http://pinterest.com/pin/171136854559878845/

OPI has a polish called Funky Dunkey and it is a really good purple color. I use it whenever I’m in a purple mood and it’s awesome. Good luck!

That’s cute! I rarely get manicures, and when I do I prefer to get something neutral…this is very fun!!

Am I the only one who can’t even concentrate on the nail polish because I’m so DAZZLED by that jaw-droppingly gorgeous engagement ring?!? Seriously. WOW. Lucky, lucky lady.
As for the polish, I wish I had some suggestions but I rarely wear the stuff. The sparkly purple polish you have on in the photo is gorgeous though.
