It’s officially springtime, y’all! Then before we know it it’ll be summertime ... then it’ll be fall ... then it’ll be Christmas ... then it’ll be springtime once again ... HOW DOES THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN???

There’s honestly nothing that I despise about spring. I love everything from the mild weather to the blooming flowers to the green leaves growing on trees to being able to walk barefoot in the grass … pretty much everything about it! I’m just a girl who likes to find the beauty in every season (even though I’m not a fan of winter, I love it at Christmastime!). And when spring is in the air, nothing gets me more excited than a fresh colorful manicure! Even though nail salons may be closed at the moment, nothing stops me from trying one out at home! The wonderful ladies at Olive + June were more than kind enough to send me their new superbloom set, their latest manicure kit for the season of spring. The kit comes with their new six shades: sheer white, sheer pink, sheer tan, sage green, pinky lavender and sunny yellow, as well as a top coat. Pretty much all of the pretty pastel colors that you can dream of for springtime!

Obviously when you receive this amount of fun colors to try out on your nails, it’s hard to choose just one to start with! However, I’ve been obsessed with the multicolored manicure aka “all of them” trend, which you’ve probably seen all over Pinterest and Instagram. It’s perfect when you can’t decide on one color … literally just use all of them! And it’s perfect to try out with Olive + June’s superbloom set. I tested the colors on my nails for Easter this past Sunday, and I absolutely loved the results. It’s like looking at a pastel collection or a bunch of colorful flowers! Needless to say, I’m very grateful for Olive + June and this beautiful kit to help me get pumped for springtime. Pastels for the win!

GALENTINE’S PARTAAAYYY!!!! Minus Leslie, Ann, April, and Donna.

There’s only TWO days left till Galentine’s Day aka one of the best holidays ever! If you’re not familiar, it’s basically just another version of Valentine’s Day but instead celebrating your closest and most beloved lady friends, single or not. Just watch Parks and Recreation and you’ll understand where I’m coming from. But ANYWAY, in honor of this special day for the ladies, Olive + June was generous enough to send me and my roommates 5 full boxes of 25 colors of nail polish for us to have our own Galentine’s manicure party. That’s right, 25 SHADES OF NAIL POLISH to choose from! I mean, what better way to celebrate your gal pals?! Take that, Leslie Knope!

I still love you though, Leslie.

If you’re not familiar with Olive + June, they’re an L.A.-based nail salon known for their in-house brand of good quality nail polish, as well as their manicure box sets. They’ve been featured in a variety of positive reviews in media outlets including Vogue, People, InStyle, and many more. And they just announced that they’re going to be selling their nail polishes in every local Target now, which, as a Target junkie myself, is SO exciting! So next time you’re on a Target trip, go check out their collections and treat yo self with some new colors for your nails! Because it’s impossible to go to Target without getting just one thing, am I right?! 😂

Anyway, as soon as the boxes arrived, my roommates and I immediately threw an early Galentine’s party to try out the different given shades. There were so many colors and ideas to choose to play around with. There’s no better time to whip out the phone for some Pinterest inspiration, am I right?! It’s always so difficult to pick what color to paint your nails for a manicure, especially when there’s literally 25 colors to choose from. But thankfully, it’s possible (and cute) to paint them by using multiple colors! One of my favorite trends going on right now are the ombre nails, in which you paint your pinky finger thumb nails the same color and three different but matchable colors for the remaining three. I decided to paint mine by following the trend as well as taking a little Valentine’s inspiration with light pink, red, nude and sparkly copper (for the ring finger, of course!). My roommates mixed and matched their nails as well. The more colors the better!

Thank you SO much to Olive + June for sending us your goodies and allowing us to have the best Galentine’s party EVER!

Inspired to have a mani pedi party with your gal pals for Galentine’s Day now? Then you’ll definitely want to check out Olive + June’s full set with the complete collection of nail polishes, as well as the other collections they have to offer!

Happy Galentine’s Day, ladies!
