St. Patrick's Day Nails: Mint Candy Apple

I love St. Patrick's Day for multiple reasons. I love dressing up in green and eating corned beef, cabbage, and potatoes. Not only do I love it for those reasons, but my ancestors were also from Ireland. My Great Grandma's grandparents (Kelly's) were directly from Ireland. I usually only wear green, but I decided that I would paint my nails my favorite shade of green: Essie Mint Candy Apple.
This is actually only 1 of 2 green colors I have, but the other is slightly darker (OPI Mermaid's Tears, I believe). I discovered this color last summer and it's definitely been a favorite since then. Thinking about moving to Hawaii, and seriously having to narrow down the polishes I take with me, has me trying to decide on about 10 polishes to take. I think this will probably be one of them. I'll most likely stick to "summer" colors, mostly because the "winter" and "fall" colors I have won't really work in a state that is literally summer year round.



I'll definitely keep posting my Nail of the Day posts up until I move because I'm hoping I can get through all of my favorites to show you. I will also make sure, before I move, to share with you--what I suppose will be--my top 10(ish) nail colors. I figure I'll only pack the ones I truly consider to be favorites, which unfortunately won't include fall or winter shades. But I'll be honest, my goal of 10 may be slightly unrealistic considering I think I'm well over 60 currently. However, cutting out winter and fall shades will help me tremendously.

Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone, whether you're Irish, of Irish ancestry, or just Irish for the day! :)
