The Tropical Island Nails.

Photoshop surely is the most viciously evil program. Now I'm genuinely sad that I don't have one blue eye and one turquoise! Stupid retouching, setting impossible ideals we just can't live up to. Life is so unfair - why do my eyes have to be such a monotonous, dull, mundane, single-colored blue when Photoshopped Annika gets to look all creepy and cool and videogame-ish?

(Hahaha. The hilariousness never stops! I'm on fire, I know!)

Oh well. I'll dry my imaginary tears now and focus on the redeeming fact that at least I can have my nails painted blue and turquoise, without the help of Photoshop. I read that when the ever inspiring Sandra @ NioTillFem last had a pedicure, she asked for every other toe nail blue and every other green, and I thought that was quite the spledid idea. I probably won't get another manicure until next time I go to the US - they're crazy expensive here in Sweden - but I am in possession of an almost ridiculous amount of nail polish bottles and two pretty steady hands, so I don't mind being my own manicurist!

I love my nails like this - now, every time I look down on my fingers I think of the ocean. The surrounding-a-paradise-island kind of aqua blue ocean, where the water is so clear you can see all the way down to the bottom and you can't decide which of all those colorful tropical fish to rest your eyes upon.
