Roses for Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day!!! Hope you all have had a day filled with love and that its been a great day so far. I came up with the idea for this mani after I did my red/hot pink leopard mani. I wanted to do something with traditional vday colors red, white, and light pink but didn't want to do hearts so I decided to do some roses down the middle. I really like the way this came out so I hope you all like it as well!

Mk's Glittery Leopard Mani

Hello everyone! Yesterday my friend Mk came over to get her nails did. We settled on this design which is a super glittery and sparkly leopard print mani.

Flower Nail Fail...

Hello eveyone! As the title suggest I wasn't too happy with the way this mani turned out. I wouldn't say its a complete fail but I wasn't really diggin' it. The design was inspired by a Dia de los Muertos skull my bff Mk got me, which I absolutely love! I think it would have been better if I actually took my time, because it's kind of sloppy and I also wasn't crazy about the placement of the design on my nails.

Another Cat Mani

Hey everyone! Today for Polish-aholics Anonymous the theme was animals/animal print, so I decided to do a little kitty cat.

Leopard Print

Todays post is a leopard print mani, I feel like you can never really go wrong with this because it's a fun design yet super easy to do and the color combos are endless. So nothing new or fancy but I liked the color combo of these two polishes, very bright and summery. In other related nail news the "Good Enough to Eat" Nail Contest closed and all the winners were announced. I wasn't one of the lucky winners but I was in the top 20 for the people's choice and I gained some new followers, so all in all it was a fun contest to have participated in!

Fashion Inspired Nails: Prabal Gurung

Today I have for you guys another fashion inspired mani, this time however it's from Prabal Gurung debut Resort '12 collection. To introduce his very first Resort collection he teamed up with Rye Rye to create a fashion music video showcasing the collection. I'm not as much of a fan of this collection as was the House of Holland one as its more girly but I do like the color palette he used. Like the other post first i'll be showing you my nails then the fashion!

Mix-N-Match: Guy Meets Havana Dreams

I decided to do a mix-n-match or skittles type mani where each nail is different but tied together by a certain color palette or theme although I have seen some skittle nails where that is not the case or where just each nail is a different color like actual skittles. Anyway I think these two colors work great together and I really love the way this mani turned out. I'm definitely going to do a few more of these mix-n-match manis with different contrasting colors.

Strawberry Patch

I did my cousin Janie's nails again! I think we are starting to make this a weekly tradition where we get together and I do her nails while we chat up and gossip. This time around we settled on a strawberry mani, I had seen on some random nail blog where someone had done small little strawberries instead of the whole nail being a strawberry, so that's where I got the inspiration to do this mani. The stems however are black not green because I went over to her house and only had a few of my polishes on me but I don't think it's that big of a difference.

Bluebell & Walter Mani

It's no surprise that I love my cats Bluebell and Walter, they are just so precious to me. So I decided to do a cat mani after them, Bluebell's really more brown in the face than cream but I don't own a brown polish so I just went with that.

Pink & Orange Geometric

I did my cousin Janie's nails again! This time we went with a geometric pattern. For her mani I used a new nail polish (Osaka-to-Me Orange) my friend Vanessa gave me! She also gave me two other OPI polishes Russian to a Party and a dusty rose/mauve shimmer polish that was missing its label. :(

Sassy Leopard Print

Today's post is a manicure I did on my cousin Janie this past Friday while hanging out at my brothers. There's a couple of mishaps on the index and pinky fingers because my brother made me laugh and my hand slipped but other than that her nails look pretty damn good! I really like the color combo of the these two polishes together it's so shimmery and sparkly. I'll have to show you Pink Sapphire on its own because it's a beautiful color and one of my favs.

Black & Silver

Hey everybody! Just a quick post on the manicure I was rockin' this weekend.

Water Marble: Mod

I decided to do some more water marbling on my nails but this time I was going for a "mod" look with more of a swirl effect.
