As you all saw yesterday, I got some gorgeous new Essie nail polishes. I think I must be in a purple phase in my life, because lately all I’m buying is purple.
The new couch pillows (for our new couch- all from West Elm).
This new VS PINK tee I picked up today after returning the HEINOUS “Pink Nation” dress I got for $10. I don’t know if anyone else got it, but it was the most unflattering cotton dress ever. If you are a member of PINK NATION you probably got the promo coupon. Anyways, I returned the dress for this adorable tee:
Do you love my sweat pant look? LOL. This is the kind of stuff I wear to lounge around at home, and yes, I’ve worn them to the gym and in public before. We all have our lazy sweat pant days!
Here’s Essie’s “Splash of Grenadine

I am just having PURPLE FEVER right now. I just love love love purple. From OPI’s Lucky Lucky Lavender
to Essie’s Lilacism
to this gorgeous Essie shade, I just can’t get enough of purple right now. I love how bright and summery this color is. I would say it is just a tad bit darker and brighter than these pics. Definitely a must-have, IMO.

” by Essie. I also love this one and plan to try it on my nails soon too.

I just realized my gray toes and purple nails match my couch and the pillows. Coincidence?
What nail colors are YOU loving lately?

I love the chinchilly! and your pillows are really pretty!
I am a big fan of both colors! I actually bought the mini 4-pack of Essie's 'Resort Collection' so it included that color. I wanted to get Chinchilly, but ended up getting a very similar OPI color. It's a great dark/neutral shade. And ps, I LOVE your sweatpants look! I most definitely look like that around the house nearly every day after work!
Keinsey- it's my home "uniform." I can't wear normal clothes at home, ever. The first thing I do when I get home from anywhere is change into comfy pants.
I am definitely getting splash of grenadine! That's the only one of the new collection that appeals to me.
I love colors in the purple field as well! I actually avoided a sweatpants day, even though the weather is pretty bad. I swapped them out for some black leggings under a black dress, because we were going out for brunch.
beautygirl- you know, I did like the blue and green colors in that collection, but they just aren't as wearable to me. I have a bright dark blue color I've worn and I never go back to it because it's just too bold I guess. I love blues and greens but sometimes I feel weird wearing them to work, whereas I don't think twice about purples.
deconstruction- black leggings are definitely a go-to comfy pant for me as well 🙂
haha, I bought splash of grenadine today too! (actually the whole collection), can't wait to try it (them) out! I hope the blue is as pretty on my toes as it is in the bottle. Your purple pillows are fab and I love comfy clothes!!
It's a little bright, but I can't stop wearing "turned up turquoise" It's a China Glaze brand. I got it from Beauty Brands along with "don't touch my tiara" (a pinky purple) they were on sale buy one get one 1/2 price!
I have to get Splash of Grenadine – this week! LOL. I love Chinchilly too. Mink Muffs by Essie is pretty awesome too.
You would love Rumple’s Wiggin. It's part of the new OPI Shrek Forever After collection. It's a lilac color purple, punched up a bit! Almost the color of your VS t-shirt.
You must try Rumple’s Wiggin! It's part of the new OPI Shrek Forever After line! It's a lilac color … punched up a bit! Sorta like the color of your VS t-shirt!
Chinchilli is just what I have had in mind for my next polish. Love it and the top. I'm on a purple run too and have been for a while.
….off to enter your giveaway now…..
I love that purple color. I have been looking for a bright lilac shade and I'm heading to Ulta tomorrow so I will check it out!
PS Your recent West Elm purchases always make me super jealous that we don't have one in my town!
I love the VS top and sweats! Whenever I am around the house I am def in comfy clothes, whether it be sweats, shorts, and a comfy shirt. loveee it, and I am also really liking the purple! I don't know why but I have been really into purple lately also
I am also a new follower 🙂
thanks for following, Jennifer 🙂 PURPLE FEVER! looks like it has struck a lot of us!
Oh my – that's too funny about your pillowcases and nails matching!
I'm in a bit of a berry/purple phase right now…it started off with this Old Navy summer scarf I bought…then I got a Coach leather bag in a similar colour…then Payless sandals to match the bag – and then plum coloured nailpolish – all in very similar shades!
I must say that I believe my chinchilla Raskolnikov would very much approve of your Chinchilly polish. 🙂

daner- too cute! thanks for sharing that pic 🙂
grey is my favourite neutral.. I am absolutely in love with it.. I didn't even really notice that I tend to gravitate to grey in my wardrobe choices all the time it is so versatile and can be paired with just about anything, especially punches of colour xo
The Chinchilly looks like the Chanel 505 everyone is talking about ! I have it on my hands right now and it's just a tad darker.
It's good to know since Chanel nail polishes start chipping after a day 😉
Love the sweatpant look!!! It's great for around the house but it's also cute to run around doing errands in. I'm in a pink mood lately. The last 2 manicures I've had have been pink. Right now I've got OPI's Italian Love Affair & I LOOOOVVVVEEEE it!!!
You have such a cute style and great decorating taste…definitely an inspiration!
