NOTD: A Day for Daisies

Hello everyone! I am sorry for the long break, but I went to Disneyland last week which was AWESOME! :) And recently we've been watching a lot of old home movies from when my sister and I were just babies, and today we were at the county fair! I hope all of you are immensely enjoying your summers as well! Today I have a fun, girly manicure for you. enjoy :)


So I started with a base coat of OPI Pink Friday (which you can't really see anymore because the other two colors sort of sponged right over it on my short nails). Then I spoged with ULTA Flamingo and ULTA Coral Chic. Then I stamped on this cute daisy pattern from plate BM16 using Sally Hansen Celeb City. I hope you all have a marvelous evening, and I will be back tomorrow with a Fourth of July post for you to check out! Thanks for stopping by, and don't forget to check the box for your reaction to this manicure at the bottom of this post, or even leave me a comment (questions are good too)! I really appreciate all of my readers, any and all of your feedback! <3

NOTD: Wild Thing

Hello everbody! I hope you are all having a marvelous summer, because I definitely am! :D I am excited to show you this manicure today because I have finally purchased a new glitter polish that I have been dying to get, and now I can show it to all of you!! enjoy :)




This gorgeous glitter polish is nails, inc. Connaught Square and is part of their 3D Glitters Special Effects collection. This picture doesn't even do this polish justice as it doesn't capture the amazing sparkle that reflects of the glitter to the naked eye. This polish is a mixture of tiny blue glitter and bigger pieces of hot purple hexagonal glitter in a clear base. I am in love <3




So obviously I used nails, inc. Connaught Square for the majority of my nails. My accent nail is OPI Alpine Snow with the leopard print from stamping plate m57 using Revlon Black Satin. Then I filled in the leopard spots with nails, inc. Connaught Square.


Here are a few more pictures. Don't forget to check the box for your reaction at the end of this post! Thanks for stopping by!! :)

NOTD: Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend ;)

Okay okay... so I'm not exactly talking about the sparkly rocks we like to adorn ourselves with and hope to one day wear on our ring finger... I'm talking about the diamond patterned nail shields that I recently purchased from Jamberry. Which, ironically enough, I have chosen to use as an accent on my ring fingers! :P Anyway, I think this design is super fun. enjoy :)

The blue color used in this manicure is Zoya Tallulah, and the pink is China Glaze Purple Panic (NEON).



I apologize for there only being one picture f this manicure, but I have had an extremely long and exhausting (but fun) day today and have to get up pretty early for work tomorrow, so I only felt like editing and posting one picture for this post. I hope you can all forgive me ;P Don't forget to check the box for your reaction below! Thanks so much for stopping by! <3

Senior Ball Nails 2012

Hello everybody! I am so sorry, I totally forgot to post the Senior Ball manicures that I promised you all. I did custom acrylics for my sister and her friend. We designed the tips to match their dates' garters. I hope you like them! enjoy :)


First, here is a picture of my sister and her ball date:
Ahh!! so cute! :D And just for fun, here's another picture from Saturday night of my sister getting a smooch on the cheek from yours truly ;)


Okay, I guess it's time to give you some nail art. The purple color I used for this manicure is A-England Avalon, and the white (used for stamping) is OPI Alpine Snow. I used the stamping plate m57 for the lace and the flower.





Next up, is my sister's best friend Hayley. First, here's a picture of her with her ball date :)

I love these two! <3 Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of her date's garter that we matched her nails to, but it had white lace, turquoise ribbon, and hot pink flowers :) so cute!! We also neglected to take pictures of Hayley's nails until they were all trying to get out the door to go to their other friend's house to take more pictures haha so these photos aren't the best, but I'll show them to you anyway. 

The turquoise color I used here is Zoya Tallulah. I used the same stamping plate for the lace as I did for my sister's manicure. I used a dotting tool for the little pink flowers with Essie Watermelon, and I added a dot of A-England Merlin to the center of the smaller flower. I also added China Glaze Fairy Dust for a little extra sparkle :). 

And here is a close-up. Granted, it is a little blurry, I apologize, but you get the idea...

Alright! Well that's all for today lovely readers! Thanks so much for stopping by to check out this post! <3

NOTD: So Ready For Summer!

Well it's starting to feel like summer outside, and I cannot even wait for my classes to be over for the semester!! I will be leaving junior college after the next two weeks are over, and I am so excited to transfer to CSU Northridge and move on with my life!! :D
Today I have a summery manicure for you that was inspired by this awesome weather (I'm even wearing a sun dress today, yay!) Anyway, on to my nails. enjoy :)



For this manicure, I started out with Essie Sweet Talker. Then I added some yellow polka dots with ULTA Sun-Sational. I painted the sunglasses on my ring finger using Essie Watermelon (my favorite summer shade of pink) and Revlon Black Satin.


Happy summer, and thanks for stopping by! <3
