Well, hello! I know I've been a stranger but things have been NUTS over here at Casa de Phalanges. It feels like this weekend is the first chance I've had to breathe since the last time we got together.
Over the past two weeks, I've helped to put on a bridal shower for my older sister, celebrated Christmas, went to multiple family parties, and rang in the new year with my best friend. I'll share some quick snaps from all that at the end of the post.
Tonight, I'm going to share with you an Essie mini that I picked up just before Christmas.
This is My Better Half from the Summer 2013 Bridal Collection that came out.
This is a sweet and simple pink-toned lavender that is shot through with a pearly purple shimmer. It applied really smoothly and I believe this is three coats with Orly Nail Armor base coat and Beauty Plus top coat.
It was just a very simple, girly manicure and a great palate cleanser, as I wore this after the nail art I shared in my last post.
And before I go, I wanted to share a few peeks at the bridal shower I helped put on!
The shower theme was...

which is one of my all-time favorite movies.
So of course, I had to do my nails to match
What else could I use, other than China Glaze For Audrey? I did a Tiffany box as an accent nail using pearly white from my Migi Nail Art pen set.
(my phone case matched too..hee hee)
This is my younger sister, Ashley (upper left), myself, and our older sister, Aimee.
The bridal party girls!
It was such a fun shower and the food was delicious. It was great to honor my sister and spend time with family that I don't get to see that often!
What did you girls do to celebrate the holidays? Get any polish goodies for Christmas?
Hope everyone had a great Christmas and celebrated a happy New Year!!
xo, ali

Thanks so much for stopping by my little corner of the internet.
I'd love to hear what you thought, what you loved, what you hated. Or, just say hi!
