Dear God, I am weak, so weak, in the face of Essie’s winter collection of nail polish. ♥

It’s a rather new fixation for me, nail polish. But when I saw this mostly soft collection online I knew I had to have some of it. I bought Carry On, a purplish burgundy.

It’s a rough world out there and sometimes, a girl’s just got to be trivial, you know?

We need an escape that keeps us in touch with our long-gone innocent youth, when it was all Tangee lipstick, cat-eye glasses and AquaNet. Before we had bills to pay, retirements to save for and kids to raise.

There are worse addictions.
