I was so excited when I found out about this swap because like everybody else and their mother, I'm hooked on nail polish! And sidenote: the last swap I signed up for was last December and I totally got burned in that one so I was hesitant to get back into swapping. I'm so glad I did though because it has restored my faith in the swap! ha.

My swap partner was Amy of At The Pink of Perfection and I'm really happy I was introduced to her awesome blog...and to her of course! :)

  First off - REALLY? How cute is this "Nail Mail" card she made?
And her pretty business card! Love it.  

So excited about this package!

3 nail polishes and a file and clean-up pen.

I've never tried a clean-up pen before and I can't wait to try it!

Inside were the two nail polishes I told her I'd been dying for:

Essie's Mojito Madness and Ole Caliente + Sally Hansen's Princess Cut

I was like a kid on Christmas morning opening this up. So it's pretty fitting that they're Christmas-ey colors too. ha

And here is Olé  Caliente on.

LOVE IT!!!!

I'm a huge fan of red polish and this is the perfect red orange for me. I was showing it off to my co-workers and they laughed at me because when telling them the name, I couldn't help but do a little shoulder shake. Just makes you feel kinda spicy! Olé!

Thanks, Jenn & Whitney for hosting this fun swap! :)

I can't wait to see what else everyone received.

Head on over to Amy's blog to see what I got her!

I hope Mariah and Leeann can forgive me.*

*No I don't mean Mariah Carey or Leeann Rimes. I'm talking about way more awesome real life ladies.

To start off, let me introduce myself. My name's Jessica and I'm probably the worst person/blogger ever. Let me tell you why.

Last month, I signed up to participate in Leeann's blog swap at Join The Gossip. I got paired up with the sweet Mariah at Mind of Mister and was so excited to get started! I had so much fun shopping for the goodies and then finally sent them off to California!

What I totally forgot about was that by the time her package would make it to my house, I would be 2 days into my 2 week work trip. Crap.

So I had to have Ronnie open the package and text me a picture. Of course, he didn't care to take the greatest picture because he didn't get what a big deal this was. Hello, I needed to blog about it! He sent me the picture (you'll see it below) and I was so excited about all the fun things she had sent!

Here's the bad part. By the time I got home, I was so freaking wiped that I totally forgot to blog about it. So here I am, a month later, finally blogging it. I feel horrible :( I hope Mariah and Leeann can forgive me. Do me a favor and please check out their blogs if you're not already following them!! They're great girls!

First off, here's the adorable notecard Mariah included listing all the items she sent me:

She doesn't even know me but it's like she KNOWS ME. Crazy.

Awesome chapstick, Cadbury chocolate, nail polish (baby colors!), MY FAVORITE MASCARA EVER and a Starbuck's gift card?!

Oh yeah, DOG TREATS too!!

Just going over the stuff again makes me feel even worse that I didn't post this on time.

(here's the crappy pic Ronnie took. He didn't even set this shiz up!)

So please, please swing by and tell Mariah hi!!

And tell her I'm not usually this awful.
