Current Obsession: Mid Finger Rings

I have been seeing these rings in the blogosphere for a while now and I think they are so cute. They have a few names: mid-finger rings, phalanx (term refers to the finger bone where the rings sit), mid knuckle rings, etc. This trend was around before and as with all trends they make their way back.

Because of where they sit they are much smaller then your average ring. But if you have a ring that is too small it may just work as your midi ring. Make sure it's tight enough since there's less room for it slip off! Other tips I've found is buying a baby ring or toe ring for the same effect.

They look so cute and dainty. I'm going to find me a few soon... and by soon I mean tomorrow!

Warming up to Spring

Jeans: The Limited - here, Shoe: Michael Kors - here, Shirt: The Loft, Jewelry: Saks, Forever 21

The weather last week was so beautiful I couldn't even believe it. One day it went up to 84! I felt very much like Spring in this ensemble of bright pink pants and accessories. Since the pants were so bright I went with a neutral shoe and shirt.

Sally Hansen Salon Effects Nail Polish Strips - Turn One Application into Two

I stopped wearing artificial nails years ago because of the damage to my real nails. It's a bit of a hassle because nail polish chips and looks terrible pretty fast. I don't like the gel nails that are so popular now because they damage my nails the same way the artificial nails did.

I do love nail art, and my current obsession are the Sally Hansen Salon Effects nail polish strips. They are not only super cute, they last forever. I wore mine for over a week with no problems. I think the key is following the directions precisely. Especially cleaning your nails with nail polish remover and buffing them before applying the strips. 

The kit comes with everything you need, an orange stick, nail file and 16 nail strips (8 in each pack as shown above). 

The kit is only designed for one use but since they give you 16 strips I use two of the strips twice to make it last for two applications. They give you 16 because our nails are all different sizes but I just force the strips to fit my nails somehow even if its not perfect :-)

You can just flip the end around and use it on another nail OR you can paint one finger on each hand a solid color.

As you can see in the picture there's a little space left on the side but it isn't noticeable once you're done. 

**Once you open the pack the nail strips dry out. So if you want to stretch it to two applications only open one pack at a time

Here are some other examples from around the web:
