Sally Hansen Nail Prisms Mandarin Garnet

Good morning!!  I had one heck of a fun Friday.  C and I were settled down on the loveseat with some Mexican takeout and X Files on netflix when his brothers call and want us to join them for an '80s dance party in Portland, in like, two hours.  So, we were under the gun to get cleaned up from work and come up with a couple killer costumes.  In the end, C decided to wear his sunglasses at night and I found some legwarmers on clearance at Fred Meyer.  A pic of all that goodness is at the bottom. :)

My notd is Sally Hansen Nail Prisms Mandarin Garnet.  This one came in a five pack I picked up at Grocery Outlet, and honestly, I probably wouldn't have gotten this one had it been on its own, and I would've missed out.  Mandarin Garnet is a lovely little scattered coral pink holographic.  I puzzled over the mandarin part for a bit, but it kind of came out to play in the second photo.




It's not the most remarkable Prism, but it is pretty and played nicely with my camera.  And let's face it, any holo is a good holo.  The formula is nice as usual; I used two coats.  

And, as promised (or threatened, lol)...


 C's sunglasses are on top of his head at the moment, and my hair is nice and crunchy, and yes, my feet were killing me by the end of the night (I should have gone with some classic Keds).  We had SO much fun.  The best thing, though?  90% of my costume was already in my closet!

  1. Beautiful polish. I would probably not even give it a second glance either and miss out on such a gem!

    1. It was like a sweet bonus :) You can't see the names of all the polishes in the five-pack, so I was pretty stoked to get one I normally wouldn't have picked out for myself.

  3. Love your outfit!! 80s parties are so much fun and it's sad how many items in my closet work for a costume too haha! And I'm really loving that color nail polish... I'm a sucker for that shade of coral/pink right now.

    1. Thanks Kelly, lol! As soon as my sis in law saw me she said that she knew I had something in my closet that would work. I had to laugh.

    1. It was actually hosted by a club who does 80s parties every Friday night, and the gang wants to go up again, soon. Next time I might just wear my normal partaying clothes. I suddenly wish I'd have kept my old high school formal dresses. lol.
