World Autism Awareness Day Mani

Hey everybody!  It's late, but it's still World Autism Awareness Day here, so I'm not too late!  I've had a crazy busy day today.  Spring cleaning has me going completely nuts this year because of the mess that has accumulated lately from my polish lab to my excessive shipping!  I cleaned my work space today and assembled a new desk and chair.  If you'd seen my old desk set up, I am pretty sure you would agree that I needed a new one!

Excuses aside, I did manage to do a manicure to show my support for today!


This is what I came up with!


I started with Julep Jessica, which is one of my latest obsessions.  I really dig this polish and showed you some nail art with it already, but I also thought it would be great underwear for...


Sinful Colors Cinderella!  My Walgreens finally got this polish in with the Sheer Shimmer collection.  It's been around the block a bit already, but it's really very pretty.  I love the pink shimmer.


I do kind of think these pastel colors make my nails look fat...but when I told my husband this he thought I was being batty...


In any case, Cinderella wasn't enough for me, so I took Sinful Color's Neptune and freehanded a diagonal line across the tips.  It looked okay, but I still wasn't happy!


I grabbed my American Apparel Passport Blue and added some stripes!

So tada!  My blue manicure of the day!  Thanks for reading!
