Is your week as mixed up as mine is?
How could one little middle of the week holiday make life so confusing??
I am continuing on with the red,white and blue theme as you can see.
There's not that many times a year one can pull it off without looking costumey.(is that even a word?)
As you can see, this is just a very casual simple look to beat the heat.
No frills * no fuss.
I tried to do a 4th of July inspired mani as I posted yesterday.
Man, is it more difficult than you would think.
Mine is hastily done and not done very well,
but I did do it!
So I am linking up with The Nail Files today to show it off,
although I might be embarrassing myself a bit!
As you can see, it is pretty lame.
Son2 called me out for the dots instead of stars and only 4 stripes.
I used
- GoGo Girl-Sinful Colors
- Midnight Cami-Essie
- Marshmallow-Essie
Did you attempt a patriotic mani?
How did it work out for you?
Have a great weekend everyone!

Great job on the nails. Looks like you have a pretty steady hand. I couldn't do it that nicely.
You look great in shorts!!
I am still confused... Hopefully by the end of the weekend I will get it together. Great Mani!!
Oh please, they look good! You can totally tell they're a flag. Did you do the lines with the brush from the Essie bottle itself? If so, then I'm really impressed because it's really wide!
That's my kind of outfit on a hot summer day!

I dress relaxed every day. Only way to go in the summer time heat. Cute t-shirt!
love those shoes and you did a great job with your nails!
I really like your casual outfit...looks comfy. I think you did a great job on your 4th of july mani.
I find painting with white so difficult, it always looks like white out on my nails! I think yours is cute, pretty impressive for an at-home mani! Cute simple look, you still make it fashion forward with the scarf as belt! Have a fab weekend Brett :)
You should tell your son he should try to paint his own nails and see how well he does! I also did a patriotic mani - I used nail striping tape but cheated by using glitter ;)
I think your nails came out great!
Brett, your manicure is adorable, not lame. I love it! Also, I love the brick wall behind you with your gorgeous flower planters. Your shoes look really nice on you, I love a good tstrap. have a great weekend. dawn suitcase vignettes xo
I agree -- Tuesday felt like a Friday, Thursday felt like a Monday, and today (Saturday) feels like a different week. Nice pictures.
Yep, this whole week felt weird. I kept thinking Wed was Sunday. I'm impressed w/ your flag manicure - way better than I could do!
I think you manni is cute, and i know, the holiday still has me wondering what day it is!

You always manage to look so cute!

Hope you're having a good weekend!

I am super excited for you to buy the union jacket bracelet! I plan to wear mine the week of the Olympics! Your 4th of July nails are GREAT!!! I was discussing this on twitter with Penny Pincher Fashion and the Stylish Housewife. Each had said their attempts weren't what they had in mind...I tried to create a fireworks/sparkle nail...ehh it was ok. Red and blue alternating nails with a red,blue, and silver star sparkle polish. It was BEAR to remove that sucker!
My week was totally thrown off!
Nice patriotic nails :)
these are some cute and fun sandals:)
would you like to follow each other?

Your nails are adorable, you should be proud of your steady hand. I had similar intentions but mine was nowhere near as good. Love your bright blue sandals!
I think the nails look pretty spiff. Not lame at all!
Your wedding set is lovely btw.
