ABC Challenge - Essie

Hello darlings, long time no blog. I missed last weeks challenge, which was D, so I'm starting back with the other ladies this week. I apologize for my lack of posts, this comes for two reasons, one is my computer crashed.. again. Second, ive been having a pretty rough couple of weeks at work, which has had me stressed, anxious, and not like myself. I have a really great friend to thank in helping me and giving me really great words of encouragement, I really saw a whole new light after a couple of emails. Gin, (who by the way once she hits 100 followers on her blog will be having a giveaway) is my saving grace, we've been nail mail buddies since October, and we have shared probably well over 300 emails, she really is my polish best friend:) thanks gin.
Enough sap and sorrow, onto the nails I say! Today I have for you some essie's. I looove Essie polish, the formula, the colors, the pigmentation, all pure perfection. So while shopping I saw these two colors and knew it was meant to be.
On my pointer and pinky fingers is two coats of Butler please. On my middle, ring, and thumb is two coats of Bikini so teeny. I also went back to my nail art roots. Its been so long since Ive done any nail art, I really enjoyed doing this, so for accents I made a side french leopard print. All topped with seche vite, which my bottle is now super thick and caused bubbles:(
I plan on coming back strong especially once I get my stupid laptop back. What do you think of today's mani? Make sure you check out the other wonderful ladies in the challenge!
Until next time! -Sammi
