June Polish Pickup Ft. Literary Lacquers, Luna Wax & Nail Hoot

I gotta admit, I was skeptical when Weather won as the theme for June, and I wasn't really looking forward to it.

Literary Lacquers March pop up features one new polish as well as some returning favorites. Let's check out the new one first, after the jump.

Valentine's Day Nail Art

Literary Lacquers Misc. Swatches & Review

Ecstatic doesn't even begin to cover what I felt when Amy from Literary Lacquers asked me to pick some polishes from her shop to swatch for her. Do you know how hard it is to look through a shop full of awesomeness and have to narrow it down? She was even kind enough to throw in an extra! I wanted to go out of my comfort zone with these and pick some shades I don't own or normally don't gravitate towards. I was NOT disappointed! 

The Color Box: Purple ALL The Things

A while back, I had a dream about creating a color box. Who else dreams about polish?! I never thought it would come to fruition, but here we are, a color box! I made a post on FB in For the LOVE of indies asking if makers had any interest in creating such a box, Jen & Amanda helped to tag makers and it evolved into a Blogger driven subscription box. Bloggers work together with an indie maker to create a custom nail polish for the color theme of the box period. The first color we chose is PURPLE! Check em out!
