#summernorules - FLIP FLOPS

When I think of Summer, flip flops come to mind and my favourite polish to wear as a pedicure is China Glaze's Flip Flop Fantasy!  It is part of the Summer 2010 Poolside collection.  Not the easiest to work with, it is still worth it! I love this bright coral pink neon polish.

#summernorules - FAV SUMMER GLITTER

I love a good glitter in the summer, especially when the glitter sparkles in the sun.  This is Loaded Lacquer's Fluffy Macaroons.  It is a clear based glitter consisting of plum, periwinkle, yellow, marigold, cotton candy pink, purple & white hex and squares with holographic sparkle.  I used it as a topper over Sally Hansen's Mellow Yellow.

#summernorules - LEMONADE

Who doesn't like a cold glass of Lemonade in the Summer.  For this manicure I used the very popular Sally Hansen's (old formula) Mellow Yellow.   As with most yellows, it is not the easiest polish to work with, so I added some of China Glaze's Fairy Dust on for good measure.

#summernorules - THE BEACH

Who doesn't love the beach?  Summer is my fav season, I love the heat!  Blue is what I acquaint with the beach. This is OPI's No Room For The Blues and it is from the 2009 Bright Pair collection.  It is a gorgeous bright blue that would be appropriate to wear any time of the year, but I love it in the Summer.  Opacity was achieved with 2 thin coats...great formula!

#summernorules - FAV SUMMER RED

Today is RED in the #summernorules!!  I normally don't wear red, it is another tricky colour with my fair skin.  This is OPI's Red Hot Rio and it's from the 2014 Brazilian collection.  This cherry red, jelly like creme was easy to apply, with only 2 coats. I have been told that it is a dupe for OPI's Vodka & Caviar...which is very difficult to get your hands on, so I'm so happy I have this one.

#summernorules - DOTTICURE

I love dotticures, they are so easy to do and produce such a great manicure.  I used KB Shimmer's In Yacht Water, Essie's Blanc and OPI's Who Are You Calling Bossy.  I think it turned out pretty nice.

#summernorules - SUNSHINE

I am a fair-weathered gal, so I love the sun!  This manicure's theme is Sunshine.  OPI's I Just Can't Cope-acabana is the most flattering yellow I own.  It is a gorgeous yellow from the 2014 Spring/Summer Brazilian collection.
