Valentine's Day!

EDIT: This didn't post, I guess I can't figure out my queue! 

So, Valentine's Day is upon us again! I actually like this holiday since there is always tons of chocolate and chocolate is one of a girl's best friends!  Plus having an awesome boyfriend helps!

Anyways, here are the nails I did for Valentine's Day!


For this hand I did two water marbled nails, half hearts on my middle two, and wrote "love" with a heart border.


My heart! I placed red microbeads caviar-style as the border.

 
I think this was impressive since I did this nail in less than a minute since I had run out of ideas to do!


Now for my other hand!


I did alternating grey and pink nails with an accent nail of grey and white stripes with a heart.


On the grey nails I used pink glitter and pink hearts.  On the pink nails I used silver glitter and grey hearts!

  

So, Valentines day has a lot of hearts! Which reminded me of my ring that my boyfriend got me. Isn't it just perfect for the holiday?!


And of course, heart shaped chocolate!

I hope you enjoyed your Valentine's Day!

That's all for now<3

I love Indies!

 Indies are a total hit right now! And I am SO not complaining, since they're so amazeballs!

And since my boyfriend is such an enabler, he buys me so much!
And I have to use them all. Seriously.

Soooooo here's a simple, yet cute, mani I did using indies!

For all my fingers, except my two accent nails, I used Essie Cocktail Bling.
And without further ado...


This is one medium coat of Glitzology Island of Misfit Toys over Cocktail Bling.
This is two coats of Pretty & Polished Jawbreaker.


And for the other hand!

This is two coats of Glitzology Diet Cokehead over Cocktail Bling

This is two coats of Pretty & Polished Cheer Camp








So easy to create a cute mani without needing to have to do crazy nail art all the time!

That's all for now<3

The Hunger Games

So The Hunger Games trilogy has gained a lot of popularity ever since the movie came out.
But I knew about it first! And no one would listen to my recommendations.
But now everyone knows about it....

Well, China Glaze came out with a Hunger Games collex.
Which I got from my SO. Lovely!
First, the nails.


From the movie that premiered this year, Effie Trinket's reaping day nails! She's really just how I imagined her to be.  The nails Effie had were a magenta/purple colour and had a gold gradient

I hate trying to get purple accurate..


This picture is MOST colour-accurate.


Now, on my other hand my inspiration was taken from the cover of The Hunger Games.



My lines are all wonky. ):

And my thumb was the title of the book.



I actually attempted the Mockingjay design, but decided to leave it for another time.


Now for the collection!

Here we have from L to R: Harvest Moon (D9 Grains), Mahogany Magic (D7 Lumber), Foie Gras (D10 Livestock), Agro (D1Agriculture), Smoke and Ashes (D12 Mining), and Stone Cold (D2 Masonry)

The second part from L to R: Electrify (D5 Power), Hook and Line (D4 Fishing), Fast Track (D6 Transportation), Dress Me Up (D8 Textiles), Riveting (D3 Technology), Luxe and Lush (D1 Luxury)

All of these polishes are super pretty, but I think I like Agro the most!  

That's all for now! <3
