OPI Just Lanai-ing Around Cherry Blossoms with Born Pretty Store Plate Q Girl 022

I went to Sally's last weekend and picked up Just Lanai-ing Around from the OPI Hawaii collection. I've been looking for a dusty rose color for a while that doesn't look like granny polish and this one is perfect! I also received a lovely floral plate from Born Pretty Store for review and thought the two would make lovely cherry blossom nails!

Shown is two coats of Just Lanai-ing Around. It was more watery in consistency than what I'm used to from OPI but it was still very pigmented. It dries a few shades darker than the bottle color.

For the accent nail I started with two coats of Layla white. I stamped with Born Pretty Store plate Q Girl 022. Use my code SL10K31 for 10% off! I used Konad black stamping polish. I did the stamping decal technique where you color in the image while it's still on the stamper. Finished with Color Club top coat.


The Born Pretty Store plates now come wrapped in a cute frosted plastic envelope. There is a blue film on it that you need to remove before use.

The plates now have a plastic backing too which is nice! No more sharp edges to worry about :)


The image was engraved well and I didn't have any issues with it. I really love the floral patterns on this plate! They are really pretty and versatile. There are also some good full nail images here :)

  2. It's nice and I love your stamping :-)

    How are you feeling now? Are you sleeping less? I'm still tired a lot and think I'm eating too many carbs, which can make you really tired. So I'm gonna try cutting them out and see how I feel! Wish my luck lol ;-)

    1. thanks Ananka!

      I was actually the opposite this week... I had work from 7 to 330 and I'm usually a night owl so I had trouble sleeping earlier and ended up only sleeping about 5 hours a night :(

      I didn't end up getting sick so I'm not sure what it was... I think sometimes sleeping too much makes you sleepier so I think maybe I just got stuck in a cycle where i was oversleeping constantly and it would make me sleepy again and I would just sleep even more :p
