Denim

You have seen my last nail polish swatch of Essence Polish's Blue Jeaned, which looked so much like jeans that I created this denim nail art with it. As you can see I used Blue Jeaned as the base polish and on top of that using a thin nail art brush I created white stitches and added some gold studs to give it a denims look. Hope you all like this denim look.

Blue-Jeaned

Hello Friends, today I am swatching this amazing Essence polish called Blue-Jeaned which is a Sugar effect nail polish. The polish resembles the everyday dark denims and I love it. Two coats are enough to give a good coverage and gives a good jeans look. It’s a texture polish with silver glitters which make it more eye-catchy. Definitely a keeper in my collection

Living In Yellow

I really like wearing this yellow and grey look. It’s simple, clean and chic which was what I was hoping it would turn into. The polishes that I used for this nail art are Zoya’s Darcy, Butter London’s Cotton Buds and Sally Hansen’s Wet Cement. See some other nail art using this Grey-Yellow color combo HERE.

Mixed

Hello Friend's, sharing my new nail art with you all. Its a colorblocked-tribal mixed design which I really like how it turned out. The polishes that I have used are Butter London's Cotton Buds, Union Jack Black and Chanel's Dragon. What are your thoughts on this design?

Book Review : The Girls of August

Today is National Read a Book Day. So I decided to post the review of the latest book that I read - The Girls of August by Anne River Siddons. This is my first book by this author. I found it in "Top 10 beach reads for summer" category on Good Reads (Add me as your friend on Good Reads - search for Sony Mansoori).

The concept is very interesting, its about 4 friends, who rent a house every August, away from husband's, work and real life, to spend time with each other. This tradition of theirs comes to standstill for few years after some unfortunate incident. The story begins where they, after a gap of few years decide to continue with this tradition one more time. Unfortunately the book falls flat after that in its story line. There are a bunch of odd scenarios in the book, like Chapter 7 could easily have been skipped and the readers wouldn't have missed anything. The ending was really weird, the author could have choosen to send the book in a different way which would have made up for other short comings of the book.

To be frank, I wasn't much impressed by this book. If you decide to skip reading it, trust me you not mot missing anything. I rate this book 1/5.
