Product Review - Kiss Nail Dress






    This is the first time I've tried Kiss Nail Dress.  I'm glad I was given the chance to try them out because I ended up finding a great product to use in the future as well.  Not only will I be using them again myself, but I think these might make a good gift to give someone who loves their nails to look great.  The color/design I received was Cocktail which is a light and dark pink swirl with silver jeweled design on the light pink portions.

                                                  Cocktail is seen here, the pink design.




                                                  Also, seen here against a black clutch purse.







    In the kit you receive 28 strips in a box which you can use on your hands or toes.  The extra strips can be cut into shapes to add to your nails for a unique, new design.  For example, you can paint your fingers a dark pink color and add a strip of Cocktail along the top to look like a fancy french manicure.

    They are so easy to apply.  You first clean your nails, then pick the right size strip for each nail, fold over and file the excess off.  Mine lasted for about 13 days before they started peeling off.  Once they start to peel, you can easily pull them off without using nail polish remover or anything else. I love how easy they are to use and how fancy they make your nails look.  I will be trying new styles in the future and now with summer coming, these will be great to use on my toes when wearing sandals.  You use the square side of the strips for a perfect fit on your toes.

    The package included a booklet with instructions that also show some examples of how to cut up your extras to make fancy designs for your nails.  It also comes with a mini nail file.  The suggested retail price is $6.99 and available in all major drug chains and mass retailers like Walmart, CVS and Walgreens.

    You can check out Kiss Nail Dress to see all 18 designs and to watch videos that show you how easy they are to apply, cut designs and to use on your toes.  If you love taking care of your nails, you will love this product!

The Hunger Games Premier Fashions

    Another good movie that has been premiering worldwide  is "The Hunger Games".  I haven't seen this one yet, but it is on my list.  In the meantime, I wanted to show some of the great fashions that have been worn to some of "The Hunger Games" premiers.  Today it's double Fashion Friday today!

    Jennifer Lawrence had a very different look at the Paris premier for The Hunger Games.  She wore a black, backless, gown with a zipper on the side and some gold sandals.









    Jennifer Lawrence wore a dark, green mini gown to the New York premier of The Hunger Games.

Fashion Friday - Premier of Titanic 3D in London

    Are you going to be seeing "Titanic" in 3D next week?  I loved the movie the first time it came around in theaters and I will be one of the fans watching it in 3D as well.  It will add a new level of realism to the movie.  I'm a huge fan of the movie and can't wait to see it again.  This week, at the London premier we had Kate Winslet looking great and Suzy Amis Cameron wearing another great eco friendly gown (see my Fashion Friday post Red Carpet Green Dress for more information).



                                               Kate Winslet in a black gown with crystal accents.





                    Frances Fisher wore a steel grey gown with a black coat and matching black purse. 




                                            Billy Zane was also at the premier in London with his girlfriend.





                                                   Bill Paxton and his wife were there too!




  

       Suzy Amis Cameron wore a steel blue hemp silk gown by Jeff Garner of Prophetik. She is posing with her husband and director of the film James Cameron. 







Suzy Amis Cameron,  James Cameron and Kate Winslet at the Titanic 3D premier in London earlier this week held at the Royal Albert Hall. We missed Leonardo DiCaprio, he was busy filming his next picture.  But at least we can see him again when we go see Titanic 3D!

   Hope you enjoyed a look at the red carpet fashions of the Titanic 3D London premier.  Happy Fashion Friday!

Tip of the Week - Guided Visualization






    This week I'm attaching a video from Self Magazine for Guided Visualization. It's a great way to relax and start your day feeling calm and comfortable.  It's a 3 minute video to help you release tension and stress.  If you feel you need to help calm yourself down or if you would just like to relax a little bit, this is a great video for you.  One good tip is to enlarge the video so it covers your full screen, that makes the experience even more relaxing and fun.  If you don't think it will help for rest and relaxation or calmness, it's still a great video of the ocean at sunset.  I like watching it for that reason alone!

Note:  You can turn off my blog music on the right hand side with the mini Ipod before watching the video.
