The new Christmas tree arrived today. After the Tree Punching Incident of 2016, it felt nice to start fresh with something so lovely. Hubby bought a top of the line version, a 5-star frustration-free model that came with gloves so you can fluff the branches without drying your hands out. Annnnnd a remote so you can turn it’s lights on from the comfort of your near-comatose couch lounging position. YOU GUYS. It’s a tree for a princess! A Trophy Wife’s dream! Seriously, y’all, I swear they know who lives here. I mean, if there was a set of new jammies in the box, no one would be surprised.
So here we go. Three pieces … snap, snap, click. OMG, it’s about to be the BEST CHRISTMAS EVER! Grab the remote, hit the lights .. one .. two …
Booooooo. FREAKING LIGHTS! Our expensive, NASA-engineered, rocket science of a tree arrived with all 7,397 lights not working. Aaaaaarrrrghhh! I am officially the saddest of all things sad. Cuz back in the box it goes, and it takes a tiny piece of my heart with it. Mostly for those fluffing gloves, though. I won’t lie how much I needed them.
In better news, there’s nail polish. I have so much holo-y goodness to share with you today! Take a look at these ridiculous beauties from KBShimmer:
Welp. Things just got a trillion percent more better. Holo holo everywhere, and in the cart they go! Weeee!
This is the Holo-Day Collection, a set of 8 holographic shades full of sparkle and bling and flakies and looooooove. As much as I do not enjoy winter, I do love a pretty holiday nail polish. Christy chose all the right colors with all the right finishes and loaded ’em with so much magical perfection, I swear if Leonardo happens next, wellll … clearly that just makes sense.
Formula on each was super easy and effortless – most were two deliciously smooth coats – and now you have time to go run your errands, drive your kids around, be Parent of the Year if you damn well please. I, on the other hand, will just go sit over here and pick cat hair off my sofa for a minute. In other words, var var busy.

THE ROUND UP
ALL OF THIS. IMMEDIATELY. I can’t think of any reason why you’re not tossing a whooooole lotta polish in the cart right now. Seriously, it’s a bye bye checkbook-type situation for you. So here’s your shopping deets:
Each bottle retails for $9.25, which is surprisingly not the billion dollars we all expected.
And good news, guys! They’re available now, so whatever excuse you had for not spending some money is hereby officially canceled and deleted.

And now, the linky loos! Connect with KBShimmer:
Off to do some quick swatching before bed, which will most likely turn into a 4-hour polish party and then it’s a thousand desk naps for me tomorrow. HR loves me, I swear they do.
Later, loves!
