Mani of the Weekend: Essie Neo Whimsical

This weekend, I'm off to the Berkshires for a Core Fusion retreat at the Kripalu Center. I'm going with the fantastic Keri Blair, and I needed something fun on my nails to get me through all the long, arduous workouts ahead! There was nothing better than Essie Neo Whimsical. Now, you may remember my last foray into the fabulousness that is this amazing color. (In case you've forgotten, here's a look back.) In any case, I have been desperately hunting down this nail polish ever since my manicure at Eve last month, to no avail. Imagine my surprise and delight when it appeared at a Duane Reade during a shopping trip this week! I immediately squealed, screamed and snatched it up.

Please pardon the semi-shoddy job I did on my nails! I painted them at my desk this morning in anticipation of my trip.
