NOTD: Espresso Blues

Wow!! It has been way too long since my last post! A month to be exact! :( My mind took a creative hiatus and while I have been polishing my nails for the duration of this break, I have found none of those manicures worthy of capturing an image of and sharing with the world. :P So please forgive my absence and I assure you, this marks the first day of my getting back up on the nail polish horse so to speak. Enjoy :)

This manicure started with Essie Coat Azure. Then I used Sally Hansen Forbidden Fudge with the stamping plate BM19 for the modern, brown swirled pattern. For a finishing touch, I used a white nail art pen to add some accent dots. I then chose a matte top coat to complete the look... and voila! :)

NOTD: Ocean Bubbles

Ok so it has been almost a month since my last post and I doubt if anyone still checks this blog, but the busiest part of my year is almost over so I have had just enough time to do this simple, but in my opinion really cute, manicure and post it on my blog! :) 

So I started with two coats of Essie Coat Azure, which is one of my favorite colors of all time, and layered Santee Ocean Blue Goitter :) I love this polish that my wonderful sissy found for me because it has large turquoise and silver pieces of glitter along with smaller silver pieces to give it an even more layered look because of the two sizes of glitter! :D Anyway, then I finished off this manicure with Essie Matte About You. Enjoy!
