Stripey

POSTED ON: Sunday, July 21, 2013 @ 8:50 PM | 0 comments

It's been a whole week since I last blogged and I apologise for the lack of updates here. Been busy with my internship as usual so I haven't had much time to do my nails.

Since I had more time to myself over the weekends, I finally got down to doing some nail art again. A simple one this time, stripes.

The base colour is Kiss Chase from the lovely Ciate (I am still madly in love with the pretty bottle, how can anyone not love that pretty little thing? Mainly because of the ribbon actually...).

The dark red stripes were supposed to be stamped on using my stamping plates from mashnails.com but as usual, the images couldn't be transferred properly and I end up painting almost everything with my paint brush. The colour is Rasin Rage from Revlon.

To make planning easier, @perpetualfunk, the host for the Birthstone Series of #PolishTogether, has posted the dates of future themes on her blog. What a great idea, thank you dear girl!

14th July: RUBY (red)
18th August: PERIDOT (yellowish-green/lime)
15th September: SAPPHIRE (blue)
13th October: OPAL (your choice!)
10th November: TOPAZ (orange)
15th December: TURQUOISE (turquoise/teal)

I didn't really understand OPAL, so Google being my best friend, told me that opal is a spectacular gemstone which can flash every colour of the spectrum with great intensity and quality of colour. Sounds amazing eh? Now I understand why the colour theme is up to us to decide!




On a random sidenote...

I am left with 1.5 weeks to the end of my internship. Much as I would like to have more time for myself and to have some rest before school starts in mid August, I am rather reluctant to leave my company. I love the company, I love the people there, I love my job. Looking at pretty photos of mouth watering dishes and gorgeous setups, watching the operations team prepare for events (and entertain me by teasing us interns occasionally), learning truckloads from the lovely marketing team, having Boss walk around the office and giving his mini motivational speeches and of course having my fellow interns for company in our cosy little Intern's Room. All these I will miss dearly.

Would love to present everyone in the company with a little gift before I leave, a simple gesture to express my gratitude to all those who have helped me and guided me along the way. Anyone has any ideas on what to buy for about 30 people?
