Hands Off
I definitely go through phases...from obsessions with rings, to a passion for headgear, and flings with strange stockings. If there is one infatuation I am expressing this spring it is an admiration for bright nail polish. I seem to be repainting my nails every few days and can't decide what shade to keep them for longer than that. At the moment I am wearing a yellow polish from Sephora.

i have been collecting bright and odd colors of polish for years now - i have WAaaayy to much of it :)
Your nails always look nice! How do you keep your polish from chipping?
That outfit is perfection! :o)

teehee love the yellow... i'm lusting after a watermelon shade at the mo. might get it when i'm halfway through my dissertation draft lol. i always wear bright nail colours, though my nails are too tatty for colour at the moment (blame a few hours with studs, DIY-ing lol) - love the dress :-D and thanks for the lovely comment - i really appreciated everyone's words today...

I think polish is such a fun and inexpensive way to try trends.
I love love that you are wearing yellow. Right now it's more acceptable, but when I wore it a couple years back, people thought it was the most hideous thing.
I am so inspired by that purple, I want my nails purple!
I absolutely love your stud ring.
Is the blue nail polish different on both pics or is the same just with different light?
I wear yellow nail polish too, it's very..sunny? lol
I recently got this green apple nail polish but I don't think it'll fit much with my skin tone, still,I'll try it :)
I totally love red nail polish and Ur multicolor striped dress is fantastic!

Oh your dress is fabulous. And the shoes are lovely. *
Those are all amazing nail polish colors! I hardly ever paint mine because I'm so *bad* at it (haha), but you're making me want to try again!
Nail polish!!! I bought lots of them lately, all funky colours. I have blue, purple, pink, yellow and oranges besides a bunch of browns, reds, nudes and all. I'm in love with nail polish too. And neutral colours!... Hmmm... I'm glad someone shares the love :D
Yeah I've noticed your love of pretty shades of nail polishes in your photos. I love the yellow but I think that blue shade is awesome. Your outfit is so colourful and makes me smile!
I really love the color of your dress! I'm not really into nail polish though but yours look very pretty and fresh! Love the jumping pictures, they're my favorite! xxoxoxoxoxo
Aww, I love it when you wear this dress! The colors are so fantastic.
I haven't painted my nails in years and years and years and for some reason, I'm hesitant to pick up a bottle and try it again. Your polished nails are always so lovely, though!
beautiful shots;)
A big yes to that nailpolish! I LOVE nailpolish (I have more than 30 different colors, I think *whoops*).
And that Asos dress - lovely!
I haven't painted my nails recently because I've been so busy, but I might paint them after my exam...yay :D
Nice pictures, I love your yellow nail polish, atm i'm really into the coral color ! Your dress is lovely with the white vest :)
Love all these different fab nail colors and your sweet striped dress!
xoxox,

So many pretty colors!
Lovely. I can't keep polish looking good for more than an hour, so I usually do toes only.
Your nails are so pretty, and I love that multicoloured dress on you!
Oh I have to switch up my nail polish too! But mostly because I can't stand it when it chips a little haha. But I love your dress and the nail colors!
The yellow is so sunny and pretty. I'm normally only brave enough to put bright colours on my toes but yours look so great so i'll have to try them on my fingers too!
I seem to have the same obsession these days! :) My favourite so far was a minty green colour I mixed, it's so perfect for spring, you should try that as well (if you haven't yet).

That reminds me...I haven't posted an update on my Project: Quit Nailbiting.
How funny! I've been doing that same thing, switching nail colors every couple of days!
Must be something in the air ;)
from these 3 shades id go for yellow. usually im for all time red, but this yellow... just surprised me... and these yellow gloves, i want them!!!!
I can totally understand, why you love these nailpolihs, they are great and perfect for this weather!
Yellow looks like a pretty color for nails. I have never tried that. Mine are currently painted pink.
that dress is fantastic!
the yellow is just scrumptious
i love your blue nail colour so much i bought a similar? shade by essie :)
love your dress, and the blue background is so gorgeous!
i think that if i owned that dress, i would be tempted to paint each of my fingers a different bright color to go with it...
Ooh! Love all the colours, the first blue being my fave! :)
The horrendous state of my nails (nail-biter) and lack of nailpolishing skills means I stick to clear reddish pink (ie. natural)...I really must practice so I can 'grow up' and wear real colours...

i love the pattern of this dress and how u put it with the vest... and the way u describe the polish and things was brilliant lol

i love painting my nails too! although i'm so bad at it (my hands are just not steady enough) that i tend to avoid it when i need to be anywhere bright enough for people to notice!
the shade of yellow you're wearing is amazing!!!!
@Mary, I really don't have a secret my nails chip all the time too. I kinda like the way they look when worn and chipped a bit though...less fussy.
Girl your blog roooooocks....!!! :)
The dress and vest look so lovely together and I love your brightly coloured nails, I always ruin mine before they dry. x
I love all your rings, and those jumping shots!
Loving the bright dress and finger nails!!
CUTE!! I love the white vest over that dress, that's a great way to wear a vest!! And I remember buying the most frickin awesome nail polish colors from Sephora when I still lived in France. Oh how I miss it!!
That dress is adorable! Beware, snow might be heading your way on that side of PA!
I can relate. I never used to be much of a nail polish girl, but these days there are so many gorgeous shades I simply can't resist!! x
you are so impossibly darling.
nail polish is so fun & easy to experiment. have you heard of the whole 'minx' nail trend? they look like silver and gold foil - - - total insanity and i want it so bad.
here's a photo: http://www.toughasnails.co.uk/images/Minx_Nails.jpg
ah!
i've noticed your recent penchant for punchy nail colors! i LOVE that shade of blue.
Been wearing yellow polish for the last few days too - def a lot more grotty looking than yours! Yay for the stripey dress and the stripey background!
i love colourful nailpolish too! love your shades of right blue and yellow! xo
Adorable outfit and pictures!! I love the vest with the dress. I like painting every other nail a different color. People are always confused and amused. It's funny.
P.S the interview you did with bonnie was great! awesome questions
i wish i could wear yellow nailpolish! it would just clash with my skin..you look super super cute!!
Gah, I love nail polish, (and secretly love tacky nail art) especially in primary colors. That blue is so epic with those yellow gloves.
I wish I had the patience to paint my nails more often. I love the yellow polish and the dress!
great nail polish, and dress is cute and smart.
I'm so with you! I just painted mine "Trust fund baby" Pink.

Spring is such a great time for donning colors. I love the nail-polish. Of course, Mumbai weather bypasses spring and hurls us stright into a scorching summer.
all your nail polish colours are so vibrant! the yellow nail polish is love!
Great jumping pose! And you have the perfect nails for nail polish, not too short/long.
i went through a phase of constantly changing my nail varnish about a month ago! but now because i'm working more i can't wear nail varnish in a cafe, it makes me sad :( i love the yellow one best!
Yellow is my jam!!
love these shots
lovely striped dress :]
the striped dress and vest erally compliment each other well!
I can't figure out which colour to wear on my nails this spring. Autumn was all about the black nails, but it seems too gloomy now. I should shop for one soon!
Maybe I'll go back to rainbow coloured nails!
you've got such nice dresses seriously :)

i adore the yellow polish...
sephora..hm?..
intersting.... :)
yellow nail polish looks great, I will buy yellow and mint green for this summer.Let's shine.
the yellow polish is perfect for spring :)
im utterly obsessed with nailpolish as well! i love your brights!! i just purchased a bright yellow polish and im pretty excited to experiment with it!
That striped dress is soo pretty! I'm loving the different coloured nails, the yellow looks fabulous. Oh and I love the spike ring :)
And with regards to the notebook project, I'm thinking that each person will have to incorporate the postal marks/stamps that they received it in. If it goes all over the world, the notebook should look pretty cool by the end! I'm wondering whether I could actually do it this summer, even if people go on holiday, adding something they find there might be quite a nice touch, like a hotel napkin or what not. Oh, and then offering it as a giveaway right at the end might be nice too :)
I haven't worn nail polish in years (nasty horrible chemicals and such) but your shades tempt me to wear it again! I still love the blue nails with those awesome yellow gloves. And still want the gloves.
love that yellow! You should totally paint each nail a different colour, that would be adorable...
I love that necklace! x
I love bright nail polish!
Gorgeous photos x Sushi
i totally love bright nail polish! check out Rimmel's 'Tangerine Queen', its my latest addiction!
by the way, love ur flowered top in the 1st photo- did u say it was from asos? x
The yellow is a perfect contrast to the purple in your dress of many colours.
Wow I love that electric blue you got!
I love nail polish too but bright colors sometimes look tacky on my tan skin. Love your dress bytheway.
