NOTD: Happy Halloween (literally)

Hi y'all!

It's been a while since my last post-- I apologize. but work has been (and apparently will continue to be) very, very evil.  I believe that's why I slanted towards the sweet side of Halloween this year.

Granted I am by no means a "dark-type" in personality.  But I was willing to go a bit out there this Halloween (with my costume).  Then I did w'iddle mummies last week!

Mummie!
100% inspired by the mani the nice lady at the DMV was sporting,
when I went to renew my license. (Bad, over-processed cellphone pic.)

For the curious (and if you're reading thus far, you are =) I used the inner guts of a pen as a dotting tool for the eyes. Fitting, no?  ^_Q   

Actually this was the mani that wouldn't die.  After I got bored of the gray (China Glaze's Hunger Games Stone Cold and some corner swipes of Jordana's Bronze Fest) I took it all off and went bright orange, with Barry M Coral and L'Oreal Coral Starfish.  That accented the mummies much better (sadly, no pics, sorry).

But that wasn't my Halloween mani.  This was ^_^

31 Day Challenge - Day 9: rainbow

Hello!

"It's a double rainbow all the way... woah... It's so vivid... what does this mean?!"**
**This is a redunculous You Tube vid that went viral a while back. Cllck at your own risk. ;-)

Truth is, it means I had done two rainbow manis and I had two pictures, so why not post them both.  =)



     

 

NOTD: A Last Summer Fling

My summer of fun is about to come to an end... and I'm ok with it.

As I try to conclude my personal summer challenge (to wear 50 untrieds from my collection) I decided to recreate this mani by celebrity nail artist Leah Light (her facebook page is to die for btw) with corresponding colors from my stash.  (With this mani I stand at 41/50. Woo!)

This is the inspiration photo...

...and this is my version of it:

NOTD - A Bad Case of The Blues

Hi!  This super quick post is dedicated to my friend, Ginger Eleanor. ♥



"A Bad Case of The Blues"

I will update it with more info on the colors used laters today. Right now, my car has a doctor's appointment.  =(    All better now!  Let's get on with the show, shall we?

I have a personal summer challenge going.  It's just a little list of some things that I want to get done.  I keep it as an album on my facebook page, so it's ilustrated.  One item is "to wear 50 untried polishes from my collection".  So I found a cool picture online and I've used that as my inspiration/representation: Fab Fatale's blue ombre nails.  "A Bad Case of The Blues" here is my interpretation of this fab mani. ♥ 

Want to know more about the ten colors I used?
