Nail Art - A way to Get It Together?

So! I'm ready to get back in the swing of things and start really posting about my journey. I've come a long way and made some progress but I still very much need to GET IT TOGETHER!

One of my ideas to help get myself in good condition is to start with the small things; namely my nails. I have decided that I will keep my nails painted and in pristine condition at all times.

Now listen my fellow GIT Girl. Looking your best isn't always about throwing money at the problem. This is mainly because I have no money! So, in order to by thrifty, I've invested in an array of colorful nail polishes and tools and have tried my hand at nail painting and nail art.

My current polish addiction:
-Sinful Colors Professional-


The results have been mixed. Some nights I cried myself sleep because of my failure; wiping my tears with my rainbow tipped disaster. Other attempts have rated somewhere between good and great!

Have I lost 20 pounds? No. Does this magically make my hair less frizzy? Nope. But I feel more polished and together when my nails aren't bare and unfiled. Because when your nails or done it instantly elevates your entire look, even in yoga pants and Uggs. So find that one small thing that makes you feel better about yourself and keep doing it. You'll get there!

Until next time, Get It Together, Girl!

  1. This is a great tip! I've always been one to keep my nails neat and manicured, mostly doing it myself because I can't afford regular manicures. But lately I haven't had the time to keep them up so I've kept them clipped short, a little squared off (I just prefer a squared nail) and I either buff them, or put a pale pink or nude color so it doesn't show the paint chips as much. A great time saver in between painting my nails regularly. Keep it up!

    I also love that you're taking baby steps.

  2. Hi Kori-belle,

    Thank you so much for your support. I can't tell you how much I appreciate it! My ultimate favorite is pale pink or nude. I wanted to try something a little more daring on my nails recently. Thank you again.
