Christmas Shatter

I seriously need to stop shopping. Between Christmas shopping and spoiling myself, I am getting to be broke.  Starting right away, I am going on a LIMITED buy. Pretty much buying all necessities and maybe a treat here and there. If I try to go cold turkey, it just doesn't work for me. Anyways...

I decided I wanted to do a christmas shatter. I used the base color of China Glaze Kiwi Cool-ada (Boyfriends idea) and used Red Shatter by OPI on top. I really like this! I tend to love shatters that have a jelly-ish color. I don't know, just me lol.

China Glaze Traffic Jam

I have just a simple swatch for you! I bought China Glaze Traffic Jam and it came in a few days ago. I decided to put it on. I didn't realize it was a close color to Designer Satin which I also have. Still beautiful though!!

My 200th post!

I am proud to announce my 200th post! I am excited for keeping up with the blog for so long. For you guys today I have french tips in OPI DS Temptation. I think I have found my favorite french tip combo ever. My boyfriend, who usually doesn't like when I wear purple nail polish, actually said when he seen it that it was a very nice mani. That's a huge WOW to me. I love purple nail polish, but he's not crazy about it unless it's neon lol. So anyways, here it is. Sorry for being a bit blurry, this was one hard polish to photograph.

Smitten with Mittens and Snowglobe!

I have a nice red glittery mani for you guys today! The base color is Smitten With Mittens by OPI (OMG LOVE), with a layering of China Glaze Snowglobe on all but my ring finger. I used some of my new stamps I got off of amazon (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005VX8S4G/ref=oh_o01_s00_i00_details). The plate number is RA 121.






I used China Glaze Icicle for the stamp so it doesn't seem to have worked well with this bright red.. but the stamp is a holly with a bow. I stamped it twice. Here is the stamp:

The one I used was right underneath the RA 121.


Not one of my best mani's =\.

Essie Trophy Wife

Now that it's December, I love to wear different shades of blue. Like for today, I am wearing Trophy Wife by Essie. I love this shade so much that I actually have it on my toes too. If you know me, usually my nails and toes NEVER match lol. Here it is:




This is a dream to put on. With Essie, my nail polish lasts such a long time with no chips. This is absolutely beautiful!!

I found this at Target if anyone would like it :)

Purple and silver flowers

I did my nails again! I'm excited how fast my nails are growing since I had to cut them so they wouldn't split too bad. Anyways, I am LOVING this mani. The base color is Close Your Eyes by ORLY. I then layered this years Sparkle Top Coat by Finger Paints. Then I stamped with my bundle monster plate bm 11 with China Glaze Icicle.
