beat the winter blues….

January 19th, 2012 · 6 Comments · Beauty, Bloggers, tamara my camara

nothing like dollop of violet on the toes to brighten up a winter’s day. i’m loving the new rosy shades from mary jo matsumoto’s pacific coast highway nail color collection; bright, modern, and colors which work well in winter {some pinks and purples don’t}. this week the nude shades went on sale: naked at the beach….i’ll [...]
