{NOTD} Sunset with Parker

We should probably start off with a truth, a disclaimer of sorts, because every healthy relationship is based on truth and honesty right? I am in no way a professional nail artiste. I probably wouldn't even call myself a nail aficionado—okay, that's a fib and I'm sorry {after all, I do plan on showcasing some nail polish stuffs on this blog}. Nail polish has become one of my favourite pastimes these last few years so from time to time, I will be posting pictures of my scraggly nails and hope that you will remember I am just a simple nail junkie when leaving me sweet, encouraging comments {a girl can dream}. Maybe I'll post about how I became obsessed with nail lacquer one day but who wants to start off a blog with so much text in today's fragmented, predominantly online skimming era? I doubt you do so here is my first nail of the day from a while back.

I could tell you this NOTD was inspired by blogger's signature colour or that I'm so in sync with the season's Pantone colour but truthfully I came up with this nail because {a} my Julep Maven April box had just arrived {b} I had some streaking near the tips and {c} I wanted to spruce it up a bit and make my nails pop.

I couldn't have timed the sunset any better than this {I promise I finished painting right before this photo was taken} and so I like to think this manicure was destined to be named Sunset with Parker; now to find a boy named Parker :)
