[OOTD & NOTD] Something Blue ♥

Press Sample Affiliate Link

I've always wanted to do a 'How I Wore It' type of post with my nails, so here's my first go at it. It's a little different, but I hope you like it. :)

First, the nails! I wanted something light like white without the starkness, so I ended up using an off white. This is 3 coats of Nicole by OPI Sweet Surrender*, which is a pretty blush-toned cream. It's almost white but with a hint of pink, which makes it a more flattering alternative on me.

The ♥ List

Jens Pirate Booty sheer dress, $99 / Current/Elliott short shorts, $227 / Betsey Johnson pink cocktail dress, $138
  Pins and Needles lace cocktail dress, $69 / Forever 21 pointed toe flat, $20 / Stone jewelry, $72
OPI NYC Ballet Collection, $8.50

A few trends and pieces I'm really loving this spring.  Kind of a wish list if you will.  I can't imagine spending $227 on a pair of shorts though, but I like how those look.  I did see a similar pair in brown at Forever 21 that would make a much cheaper alternative.  I don't own the OPI NYC collection yet, but I'm thinking of picking up a few.  They all look pretty similar, so I might just pick up the white (Essie Marshmallow dupe?), grey, and beige.  Oh, and the glitter.  The glitter's a given. :P

Have you picked up any polishes from the OPI NYC Ballet collection?  And what are your favorite spring trends?  I'd love to hear your thoughts! ^__^
