I somewhat recently joined a new group called Hobby Polish Bloggers & they have put together a fun weekly challenge for May. I’ll post all four topics at the end of the post but this week was “Inspired by Fashion”. I looked through my magazines & was more alert watching TV but instead decided to go a different path. I mean, the accessories I’ve bought recently are fashion right? So if you keep reading you’ll see my adorable (& comfy!) crochet cobalt flats & my perfect for travel bright mint purse!

I bought this purse from Shopko because it is really small but has a place for all my cards & such. I wanted a bright, pop of color bag & this shade reminded me so much of a brightened Essie First Timer swatch I posted that it had to be mine. I needed something small for summer that I could wear to the zoo without lugging around my whole life since I’ve been hurting my shoulders/back doing that. Silly me. I seriously dug 12 lipsticks (not even gloss or balms, just the lipsticks!) out of my medium sized purse the other day.

These flats I picked up on sale from Target in this fab cobalt blue shade. They remind me of the crochet Tom’s shoes (which you can see here if you like) that just didn’t quite fit me right. I love the metal button detail & I think crochet flats are so cute for spring/summer! I even picked up a pair in mint from Kohls which you can see here! Love! I couldn’t find these shoes in the same color on the Target website (but here they are in a nice pink!) so you might need to go in store.

For this manicure I used Essie First Timer (swatches here!) as a base then used my striping tape randomly & topped it with L’Oreal Miss Pixie Nail Polish. This is one of the new jelly shades I’ll be swatching this week & might even be my favorite. I love the stained glass look & the brightness of Essie First Timer peeking through.

What do you guys think? I love this mani & am still wearing it as I type! Do you like this combo?
