A Post Filled With Random News and Events

One of the smaller waterfalls in the hotel

I have a few things I want to post, two that you may have already seen, and I think I'm just going to put them all in one random post!

The view from our room

First, you may not have noticed, but I took a week-long trip to Nashville, Tennessee for the North American Irish Dance Championships. I do not ever like to announce that I am going away, I don't think it's safe. Even though my dad always stays at my house when I'm away, I don't think you should announce when you won't be home! But now that I'm back, I wanted to post a few quick pics of the hotel, because I love it and it's gorgeous! The competition was held at the Gaylord Opryland hotel for the 5th time. I have been all 5 times and I still love it there!

The river inside the hotel. Yes, inside the hotel.

Funny story from the trip: EK (former co-author of Never Enough Nails) also went on this trip. Between EK, my mom, and myself, we brought a grand total of 27 nail polishes for a 6 day trip. RIDICULOUS!!!! Anyway, if you're ever in Nashville, check this hotel out.

OK now on to more conventional blog material. If you are a Hello Kitty for Sephora fan, here is some news for you!

This news I KNOW you've already seen because my Google Reader was filled with it! I'm just posting these two pics and the color names, although I do have individual bottle shots. China Glaze Metro collection for Fall 2011 will include:
· Skyscraper: A sparkling, glitter blue reminiscent of the sky over the city.
· CG in the City: Glittering dusty purple, bronze and silver multi-tonal glitter, perfect for a pop of edge from West side to East side.
· Urban-Night: Exactly what you need for a night on the town – rich purple crème.
· Traffic Jam: Stop traffic with a breathtaking, raspberry pink crème.
· City Siren: The perfect deep, red crème to match any outfit.
· Loft-y Ambitions: Burgundy shimmer and cocktail hour – nothing better.
· Brownstone: Burnt terracotta crème mirrors the quaint townhouses of the city.
· Midtown Magic: Burgundy base with flecks of gold shimmer captures the latest fashion trend.
· Street Chic: This gorgeous beige crème is the perfect go to shade letting your clothes do the talking.
· Concrete Catwalk: Steel grey crème is amazing for a chic mani.
· Westside Warrior: For the trendsetting woman this camo green crème is to die for.
· Trendsetter: Mustard yellow shimmer translates beautifully from hot dogs to nails.

These sound nice. I'm pretty pumped for Skyscraper and CG in the City. Trendsetter sounds cool too, I have mustard yellows, but they are cremes, not shimmers. I do wish there would be a duochrome or holo in sight for fall, but I guess that's not happening. Boo hiss.

Alright, that's all I have for today! My hands and nails are still recovering from airport soap and neglect, so I'll hopefully have a polish post soon. I have to post Chanel Peridot!!!
