The first polish I tried from my Nail Polish Canada purchase was the orange Zoya by the name of Tinsley (ZP671). I loved it from the first brush stroke. It is a pale orange which I think works better for my skin tone than a lot of the brighter or neon ones. It is also…
Part of the shopping process includes dreaming and in this case it would be Marc Jacob handbags. I am especially fond of the “trapeze” style bags no matter who makes makes them. I am loving the deep color options too. It is a nice shift from the neon splurge we have had all summer. There…
