ManGlaze!

So a while back I saw a post on Facebook of the cutest nails design and please forgive me because I can not seem to find the link! If you are reading this and you happen to have seen that post send me the link so I can give the girl some much due credit. I immediately fell in love with this nail art design because I love matte polish and it was the perfect design to wear for my five year anniversary with the best boyfriend ever! 

I started with a base coat of ManGlaze Mayo, then using my striping tape to block 

off the tips I topped it all with a coat of Matte is Murder also by ManGlaze. Then as if this wasn't sexy enough I used my BM-02 plate to add a couple of kisses in Essie Loophole. 

Like I said, this mani was born to be worn on a hot date so keep it in mind for your next night out!

Good as Gold Indeed

 Happy Monday people, nothing like some fun nails to brighten up another LONG week. Essie's Good as Gold looks good with everything so I couldn't help the but pair it with this soft mauve. To me this color combo is sweet and sexy at the same time (wink lol). I couldn't decide which Bundle Monster plate to go with so I chose several and decided to make this a skittles manicure.

As I mentioned above I used Essie's Good as Gold for my accent color and the base is once again some unnamed mystery color I ordered from Alloy maybe a year ago. I used BM-311 and BM-303 for the various stamping and painters and striping tape for my pinky finger. Are you ladies gold or silver fans? 

Purple Swirl

So aside from a lovely manicure I've got some fun news. Not only did I finally finish with yet another summer class, I found out I was one of the lucky winner of Anise's Pinterest competition! I was trying to think of the last time I've ever won anything and not one thing came to mind so there you go, I guess I was long over due.  The prize is  Anise's entire collection for the year as they are released. So far this year they have released their summer collection which you can check out here, and they will soon be releasing their fall collection which can be found here. You guys can pick up these guys at your local DSW. Alright, alright, alright let us get down to business. 

  

I love this really sheer pink by OPI called Bubble Bath even though it needed way too many coats in my opinion. It is a sheer polish though so I guess I should have known better. I topped the pink off with Konad Purple and a thin coat of China Glaze's Fairy Dust. Now I'm off to bed people. Good Night. 

Stamping Baby

BUNDLE MONSTER has arrived baby!  So you guys may have notice that Bundle Monster has finally released their new summer plates and they are awesome. The guys behind these designs really did their homework. These plates are not only beautiful, but they are crisp and detailed. Every time I looked at a new plate I was like "wow" and "oooo." Also the plates are a really good size,  no longer do you have to have tiny sized baby nails to get full coverage. So I'm from Texas and right now we're dealing with over 100 degree weather so I wanted my design to be as hot as the weather. What do you think? 

I used China Glaze Make Some Noise which is a very hot pink even though the pictures make it look more orange. The black is Konad stamping polish which I must admit is getting a tad low so if you have any ideas on a black I could replace it with I would greatly appreciate some input. Finally I used BM-323 for the rose print, so there you go ladies have fun!

Stampin' it Up

Happy Thursday everyone. I've got some light stamping work to show you today. I wanted to  get some good stamping practice in before my new plates arrive (so excited!) so this is what I came up with. The background colors are nice and soft which really makes the pattern stand out bold. Not that I'm planing on attending one anytime soon, but this would be pretty for a wedding and the color options are endless. 

I used OPI Did you 'Ear about Van Gogh? which is a lovely creme nude. I haven't used this color in a while and I forgot how much I like it until today. I also used Urban Outfitters Wet which is a frosty lavender that applied like a freaken dream. The plate I used is BM11.   

Zebra

Hola everyone, hope you all had a lovely father's day I personally got to cook my dad a yummy dinner then send him off to the movies with my boyfriend. Aside from that I woke up the other day with nail polish on my mind, and I specifically wanted to do some color blocking with some funky zebra action. Has that ever happened to you? You just get an itch to act on some sort of polish design that's popped into your head, and you've just got to do it right then! Yes? No? I got super lucky that this idea happened to coincide with the arrival of my free Zoya trio! If you follow Zoya on Facebook, Twitter, or Pinterest then you may have heard of their Take Three Free code. Hopefully you guys where able to take advantage of the goodies.  Anyways this is what I came up with. 

Bah damn you Seche! Why must you smear my hard work?!

As mentioned above some of the colors I used are Zoya's Kimber and Zuza, OPI's My Boyfriend Scales Walls, and Konad's black stamping polish. I also used Konad's m57 plate for the zebra design. I had a blast working on this design since it was bouncing around in my brain for a few days. I feel like having some fruit now so I'll catch you kids mañana.
