I Am Fortunate- Essie Lapis of Luxury


Ever have a sudden urge to wear a particular colour? I did! One day I woke up and decided I *had* to have this soft blue-with-a-touch-of-periwinkle on my nails. HAD TO. So I did.


Sometimes I remember how good I have it if this is what my mind chooses to focus on. I have to remind myself that even though I'm a poor grad student, in the grander perspective I truly am living in the lap(is) of luxury. (HA!)

What do you feel fortunate for today?

Hi k2k: Never have woken up with this particular urge however...

"...Ever have a sudden urge to wear a particular colour? I did! One day I woke up and decided I *had* to have this soft blue-with-a-touch-of-periwinkle on my nails. HAD TO. So I did..."

I did get an urge,during a later time in the day, to paint my nails a certain color. I believe it was an Sephora by OPI shade...So, this must be what it feels like to paint your nails a certain color, LOL This color looks amazing on you and you must dazzle the Professors at your Grad School every time you raise your hand to answer a question in class.

I've been stalking my local Walmarts and Targets looking for this color and its always sold out!! I want this one soo badly!! I just got some wedges this color and this would be the perfect pedi color!

@Amanda - Same colour?? Awesome!

@Laura - It's a strange itch that just has to be scratched. :) Glad you like it!

@Geo58 - So you do know the feeling! (Just not in the AM.) And I haven't taken a class in years...so no hand raising for me!

@Sia - Thank you!

@Fiona - Wow I guess its been popular by you then! I love the idea of matching your polish to your shoes! I'd love to see that :)

I have a color like that. I used it recently with white roses stamped on it, looked like an old pretty teacup ;)
It really is luxury to be able to have pretty nails <3

Glad you living in the lap(is)of luxury! It's a beauty of a shade. I'm fortunate to have won three different nail blog giveaways this month. I've never been so lucky!
