After weeks of chipped, funky nails, I finally made it back to Bahama Mama for a manicure. I originally wanted a deep red color, but fell for this purple shade instead. Maybe I was inspired by Angelica's coat. ;-)

Here's this week's manicure. They're suggestive heart bottoms at the tips of my nails in Essie "orange, it's obvious" (which I think is becoming my favorite). I can't take any credit for the title. It came to me by way of two sources. First, and obviously, it's the title of Beyonce's totally catchy song "Love on Top." You know the one she performed on the 2011 MTV VMA's when she she gave us the first glimpse of her growing Blue Ivy bump? The second source for the title came from a really cute piece that that we published on Grazia.it featuring bloggers like Nicole of Gary Pepper Vintage wearing gorgeous bra tops and bustiers. To see me do more hand signaling...

This week I showed up to Bahama Mama without any inspiration for my weekly manicure. So Gaia, the owner, buyer, merchandiser and genius behind the gorgeous taste salon, suggested I get a manicure with a matte finish. A suggestion to which I responded a flat no. I have disliked matte polish from the time my best friend Andrea introduced it to me a few seasons ago. Gaia insisted. She told me how amazing it would look in Essie "Geranium," and how it would make my hands look like "Barbie hands." I relented because she's got incre-e-e-e-e-e-edible taste. Have a closer look and give me your thoughts:


What do you think?
