Bath and Body Works' Paris Nights AKA: Today's Smell Good!

Y'all know I love fragrance! I'm constantly using something different because so many different things smell so good to me and I tend to choose scents according to my mood (and I just realized that I'm using this series as an impetus to go through my abundant stash of Bath and Body Works products).

I selected Paris Nights from Bath and Body Works for my first at-home spa night of the year. The hubby is super sensitive to smells (the wrong fragrance gives him an instant headache), so I had him smell this before I used it to make sure it was okay with his senses! It received his coveted stamp of approval (my beloved Jurlique Herbal Recovery Night Cream did not fair as well, nor did the Snowed In 3-Wick Candle featured above) and obviously I love it too! And of course, I have a well established affinity towards goodies stamped with the name "Paris," so of course I adore this luxe set (and how I wish I had scooped up the gorgeous sparkly body mist while I had the chance)!

Anatomy of a Mani-An Attempt at Nail Art

Disclaimer: I am not a nail blogger or professional (so sometimes I color outside of the lines and my cuticles look a bit ragged). I am merely a girl who LOVES nail polish!

So I decided to try my hand (ha!) at some free hand nail art and went for a leopard/cheetah print accent nail. I think it turned out pretty good for a first attempt, but there is definitely room for improvement for the next time I give it a try (and I will be doing it again). I don't think that I'm adept enough in the terminology to describe how exactly I did this, but I will tell you the polishes I used to do this...
