Water Safety Month: Swim 1922 Campaign

Today I have a pretty serious and important post about water safety. With the pools opening this weekend and the heat on hell people will flock to swimming pools and oceans this weekend. Drowning is the 3rd leading cause of accidental injury death worldwide. May is Water Safety Month and my sorority, Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc, has teamed up with USA Swimming to raise awareness for swim safety. check after the jump for more info and, of course, NAILS!!!!!


Today is Water Wednesday so I decided to do a fun mani for the cause.


It truly breaks my heart to see stories year after year of preventable baby deaths in and around water. Find out where you can get swim lessons in your city HERE. Also, follow the hashtag #Swim1922 on social media to see how my sorors are dedicated to raising awareness and preventing water related deaths and injury.

Can you swim? Can your child swim? Will you/your family be taking lessons this summer if not?

NOTD: Green Gradient and Animal Print

Hi lovelies! Today I have a quick post of what I'm currently wearing. I wore Orly Jealous, Much? for a few days and decided to preserve the mani by adding a gradient using China Glaze Tree Hugger and Sinful Colors HD Nails.

Nice but plain right? Sooooooo, let's get a little wild with animal print! You can NEVER go wrong with animal print. I used the same polishes listed above.

Tweet me your nails of the day (notd)  at twitter.com/nai1chronic1es or tag me on Instagram @nailchronicles

Have a terrific Tuesday and don't forget to enter my giveaway for movie passes under the giveaway tab!

Event Recap: The Great Gatsby Blogger Premier

Last Friday I had the pleasure of joining a group of vivacious young ladies as we donned our roaring 20's attire and watched Leonardo Dicaprio, I mean The Great Gatsby 3D. As a huge fan of the book, I'm thrilled to announce the movie did not disappoint. I'm noticing a growing trend of dine and view movie theaters popping up. This was my first time at Studio Movie Grill in Duluth but from the DJ, yes a DJ, to the manager,  everyone was so warm and welcoming. The menu looked amazing, although I opted for an oversized margarita that was uber refreshing. I think this is a marvelous idea for those with children who get a date night and find themselves too tired to do dinner AND a movie with their new found, temporary freedom. One stop shop with movie, food, and libations, my kind of partaayyy!! Check out more pictures after the jump and find out how you can win 2 movie passes to Studio Movie Grill.
