Whoops, I totally forgot to post this on the last day of March like I normally would!
My March involved a lot of polish. I did so well in February, we all know I can't have 2 good months in a row.

Here's what I racked up in March:

You may remember that on the first of March, I got a ton of polish in a swap from my friend Claudia!

I won two polishes in Color Club's Valentine's contest which arrived this month:

I got an amazing package from the lovely Anissa:

I ordered some polish from Sephora's Betsey Johnson Collection:

Other random things I bought:

That's 69 polishes. Whoops.
The Essence's were so cheap... And the OPI's were on sale... And almost everything else was a swap.
...Justified.

  1. WOW - that's a big haul! But then cannot say I have not had months where I picked up that many or more! But then I don't have nice folks sending me stuff like you as a great blogger does. I need to do a blog just so I can have some followers to hold blog sales - I so need to trim my stash. Storage is a problem but the database amazingly keeps holding as much as I get!
