Mint Green*Julep Susie // Coral*Julep Mandy
When these colors arrived in my Julep Maven box last month, I was super happy because they are such fun colors! The minty green color is perfect when I’m going for a softer look and want to sport some pastels on my nails, while the coral is great when I want my nails to really pop. Of course, when I got them, I wanted to test them out right away, so I quickly painted my nails with the green polish. Then, to mix it up a little, I painted every other nail with the coral polish, resulting in a quirky/fun manicure :)
This weekend, in addition to touching up my manicure as usual, I’ll also be celebrating Alex‘s birthday on Sunday- I can’t wait! We’re planning to grab a bite at Mad Square Eats first, then maybe walk around a bit and then go for cocktails :)
Tell me: What do you have planned this weekend?
![It's a very belated book haul! These are the four books I picked up on my trip to Australia back in May. Of course I had to check out some bookstores on my first trip to Sydney and I think I ended up visiting 9 in total (check out my stories to see the mini bookstore vlog I made)!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It was so fun book shopping over there since majority of the covers are different from our US covers. I couldn't resist this pretty edition of PACHINKO, which I've already read. And when I picked up this copy of PEOPLE PERSON, I was so excited to see it because it wasn't out yet in the US at that time. I also bought two books that I hadn't heard of before I discovered them in the bookstore: IDOL and LOVE AND OTHER PUZZLES.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you tend to prefer US or UK book covers?
