Birthday Nails

I was going to actually post this on my birthday (26th of December I'm a Christmas baby!).  Things got busy and I couldn't post it until now.  I was going for more of a glitter gradient and it didn't really turn out that way.  Oh well, still got compliments on them!  I used Confetti Happy Birthday! (Seemed appropriate) Essie Chinchilly and the glitter was Color Club Sugar Plum Fairy.  The glitter truly is to die for! I'm so happy my PAA secret santa got it for me!

Saint Nicholas would beat you?


I hope all of you guys had a wonderful Christmas! This year was more of a quiet one for me and my family, with the big brother and my mother's side of the family gone.  I was planning on more of a xmas skittle mani, but I guess it just wasn't in the cards for me.  So I stuck with just a simple reindeer, on my middle finger.  Classy lady as always.  To be honest, that really wasn't planned that way.  I added the reindeer before I gave up on the Christmas skittles.  ChG Ruby Pumps, and OPI Suzi loves Cowboys.

The twin got me chincilly for christmas! I've been wanting it for so long, but every-time I go and think about getting it I always put it back.  But now I have it, and it's mine lol.

Christmas Mani Day #2


Christmas Water Marble.  Expected it to be a fail, but it wasn't! I'm actually really excited about how this turned out! Granted there's a couple of nails I can't stand... but I can deal.   Awkward hands, and why yes I do my nails while on the computer.  lololol

I used Confetti Wedding White as the base, China Glaze Hey Sailor, and Starboard along with Wedding White to do the swirly stuff.

Christmas Maniure Day #1

I've been neglecting my blog a lot lately and I'm so sorry! Wrestling season just started which keeps me ridiculously busy! Also, I swear we haven't had any sunny days in Chicago since thanksgiving.  *sigh*
On the plus side my Polish-aholics Anonymous Secret Santa came in and I got the entire Beyond the Mistletoe Collection by Color Club and 5 nic's sticks by OPI! Two of them are holos! I'm so excited to try them out!
Anyways, here's my first christmas manicure.  I used  one coat of Party Hearty from last year's holiday collection by CG and three coats of Wedding White by confetti.  No clean up... sorry guys!

My first franken!

I made my first franken! I have no idea what to name it, and I'm not exactly sure if it's even going to be pretty on but it's mine and I made it!  It's really not all that special just a purple and some glitter lol.  I'll be sure to make a post using it soon!

Tiny Nubbins...Again

I had a major nail break on my right hand last night :( I attempted to deal with having one hand grown out and one as tiny nubbins and I just couldn't do it... I felt ridiculous, so here I am.  Tiny nails again and awful cuticles.   *Sigh*


Aye! My cuticles... I apologize.
China Glaze Midtown Magic.  LOVE.  Metro Collection has been a huge hit for me.  Midtown Magic is a brown with amber and golden sparkles throughout it.  2 coats.  Gosh, could my cuticles get any worse?  I had an incident playing with my kitten, Trudie and her claw clipping a part of my cuticle off on my ring finger (its very obvious in pictures).  It also doesn't help its getting super cold in Chicago, and my hands aren't feeling it!

Westside Warrior

Westside Warrior.  I can't even begin to tell you how much I love this polish.  It's the perfect army green!  I'm planning on using it for a military inpsired manicure sometime in the future!
I never got a picture of it alone, but I got a little bored so I did a tape mani over it using CG It's Alive and CG Street Chic.   Eeek my cuticles are awful! Don't look at them! LOL!
