This week is finally over!! I have a weekend full of homework ahead of me (part of that is to watch movies! :D the rest of it sucks though D: ), but the break from classes will be good. I already pulled my first all-nighter of the semester on Wednesday night! Ugh haha!
Anyways, I'm back with Indie Friday and that I'm featuring now is Sick Lacquers!
Onto the polish!
This first polish is called Sand Art!
More after the jump:
This week is almost over and I'm so excited! I'm really missing Doctor Who lately, so I think this calls for a Netflix marathon! Anyways, the Golden Oldie Thursdays challenge is back!
Onto the nails!
Dots on dots on dots on dots! Okay, maybe not really but it's fine.
It's the middle of the week! Woo! I feel like I've been back to school for a month haha. Today is my first full day at my internship, I'm scheduled to be there for 7 hours! I really need to get some sleep, I'm getting my id picture taken tomorrow and the bags under my eyes are already back in full force D:
Anyways, stop talking! Nail time!
These were the nails that I wore for my first day of classes!
I hope you all survived your Mondays! I survived mine but man, it felt like a whole week went by when in all reality it was one day. I have the same professor for all 3 of my classes on Mondays too! I mean I like him, he's a great professor but he definitely makes you work for your grade….aka lots of homework D:
Anyways, today is the last Tri-Polish Challenge for January!
Does anyone else feel like the past weekend flew by? Like wow, I forgot how fast they go when I'm not working. That means that today is Monday, which means that I have class from 9:30am to 9pm. Yup, you read that right! I get a 2 and a half hour break in-between 2 of the classes but I have a club meeting in that gap D: Not to mention that's 2:45am as I right this post…..whoops.
Anyways, on to probably the most detailed nail art I've ever painted!
These nails seriously took me a good 2+ hours to paint. Good thing I had Doctor Who to keep me company!
I told you'd I be back with another post! I hope you all had a lovely weekend! I did absolutely nothing that I was supposed to so woo! But today's nails are a lot of fun in my opinion so let's get into it!
Onto the nails!
Today's prompt is Sparkle! Sooo….I abandoned all nail art efforts and just went for ALL DA GLITTER!
Overall, I'm happy with everything that went up on the blog this week! Some of the designs were pretty simple but I still found them really appealing. I think I'm realizing that I work better with line work designs rather than abstract designs. That's how I am with my design work and drawing outside of nails too so I guess that makes sense.
I also wrapped up my first week of classes this week. I know I always complain about school and I said this last semester but this semester is definitely going to be a rough one. Regardless though, this upcoming week will be another fun one I think! So be ready! :D
Here's some upcoming challenge prompts:
And today's song:
Lorde - Glory And Gore
Thanks for reading guys and check back later for a nail art post!
It's Friday and I'm done with my 1st week of classes! I'm already getting into horrible habits like staying up too late, writing my posts super late (it's 2am), and leaving all my homework to the last minute (like my 2 hour break in-between my morning and afternoon class!) WOO! Great start! Anyways, I'm back with more Glossome Polishes for you (last week's are here).
I hope you're all doing well! I have 2 studios today but I'm kind of excited for them…..I didn't really just say that…..uhmmm…awkward….school sucks, man!…..Okay, yup, moving on. I went to my internship for the first time yesterday! Everyone was super nice so I'm pretty happy about that, I was a total awkward mess though….typical.
Anyways, today is Golden Oldie Thursday!
Today's color is blue! Which is one of my favorite colors so I liked this challenge!
We're halfway through the week (I only had a 4 day week but ah well). Wednesdays are my days off but I have a bunch of stuff to do today, blah. Did I mention here that I recently got an internship for this semester? I don't think so, I'm excited but super nervous haha! I'm meeting my supervisor today! Gah!
Anyways on to today's nails!
I'm super happy with these nails!! And my clean-up! Gah! Haha
Today is my first day back to classes and of course I didn't end up going to bed at a decent time! 1:30am is pretty early for me though….Whoops. Oh well, side note! I updated my editing software last night! I was using the Adobe Creative Suite CS5.5 and now I'm on the Adobe Creative Cloud. Yay, for new buttons and things not being where they used to!! It might be a rough semester haha!
Anyways, Tri Polish Challenge is back today!
This is another manicure where I had absolutely no reason for painting what I did. I just kind of went at my nails with my detail brush haha!
Today is the last Monday that I get to enjoy off before classes start, luckily I have nothing planned so I can just relax and hopefully go to bed at a decent time....even though it's 4:30am as I write this....whoops. Not sure how I'm going to survive having classes at 9:30am D:
Anyways, Music Monday nails! Woo!
I don't think I've ever had black and gold nails before, I'm loving this combination though!
I'm back again today! I hope you're all having a lovely Sunday! I'm spending mine unpacking and getting my life back in order (aka cleaning my room, I have a weird urge to clean the apartment too....we'll see about that one though haha). Anyways, FingerFood's Theme Buffet is back today!
I think it was another super fun week on the blog this week and that makes me super excited!! :D I'm really loving how colorful everything was this week, even the indies I featured fit in! And I'm hoping you guys enjoyed everything on the blog! A lot of you guys commented on the posts which makes me super happy since I love talking with you all! So please keep commenting! Gah! I'm just rambling at this point.....uhm yeah oops.
I also kind of quietly let Hey, Darling Polish's 6 month old mark slip by. So, yay! Happy 6 months! Things are getting serious now (; Anyways, what's coming up this week! Well, I'm back in Albany (I haven't unpacked yet, but ehhh)! And classes start up again on Tuesday, which means less time for the blog but I'm still going to keep on with my posting schedule! I think we can all expect another fun week on the blog though!
Here are some of the challenges that I'm taking part in!
Today's song:
The Lonely Forest - Warm/Happy
Thanks for reading guys and I'll be back later with a nail art post!
It's Friday! I hope you're all gearing up for an awesome weekend, I'm excited since I get to move back to Albany tomorrow. I should probably start packing.....whoops. This break flew by! Anyways, I'm back with some more indie polish spam today! The brand that I'll be featuring now is Glossome Polish!
Onto the nails!
Today's first polish is called Girly Things
More after the jump:
Happy Thursday! Today is my last day of work before I leave for school and I'm so happy :D Gah haha! Anyways, the Golden Oldie Thursday challenge is back today so let's get into it!
Guess who has the day off today and actually has plans to hang out with friends? THIS GIRL! Woo! I'm so excited that I only have 1 more day of work for this break, my nails have been getting pretty beat up there lately /:
Anyways! Onto today's nails!
This is probably my favorite color combination I've ever used before on my nails! Yup, I said it and yup, it sort of matches my blog layout. Brownie points to me for attempting to be matchy-matchy? :P
I hope your Monday didn't treat you to poorly, mine was pretty decent. I bought tickets yesterday to see Paramore and Fall Out Boy in concert together for this summer!! I'm so excited, it's been almost 4 years since I've seen Paramore live!! :D
Anyways, onto the nails!
Remember that this month's Tri Polish Challenge colors are red, orange, and yellow!
It's Monday and it's my last week at home! I'm excited to go back to school but I'm not all that excited for homework again! Anyways, I'm super excited about today's Music Monday post so that's get into it!
Onto the nails!
I'm seriously so happy with these nails, imperfections and all :D
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend! I've spent mine at work and getting my car inspected (it passed! woo!) Meh, too many "adult" activities at once. I'm still not digging this whole getting older and being responsible stuff....Anyways, moving on from my life crisis me being a drama queen, I'm back with another post for FingerFood's Theme Buffet post!
Onto the nails!
My shapes were triangles (you all knew that was coming) and squares!
Can I just start out by saying that I'm really happy with the past week on the blog? Because, I am! (: This week was filled with a bunch of funky designs which I love! I've realized that I can't be scared to try new nail ideas, if something doesn't work out, oh well. That's what acetone is for! I think taking part in all the challenges is helping too (even if most of my challenge nails this week were pretty simple).
So, what's coming up for this week? More challenge nails, a glimpse of my new camera settings (this will forever be a work in progress), nail art, and some more indie swatches! I'm super pumped for things on the blog this week. I also move back to Albany on Saturday so I'm excited for that. I'm a meh about starting up classes again but that's okay.
Here are some of the upcoming prompts for some of the challenges I'm taking part in:
It's Friday! I hope you're all ready for the weekend! I get to spend the next 5 days at work so I don't really get a weekend /: But this is my last week working before I go back to school! Woo! Anyways, nail blog, right. I'm back again today to show you the last of my Cascade Polish collection! This post will be a little longer since there are 3 polishes, so sit tight (:
Let's get to the nails!
First up is the polish Fright!
More after the jump:
Remember those plans I made for myself yesterday? Yep, well, didn't do them haha. I mean I watched Netflix but not in bed and I actually braved the cold. Not fun especially with semi-wet hair, I'm just waiting for a cold to hit D: Anyways, I'm back again with the start of another challenge! Let the Golden Oldies begin!
Onto the nails!
I've got to admit that I'm super pumped pink was the first color, gets it out of the way for me (;
Hope you're doing well and that you're staying safe in this cold weather. It's supposed to be warming up here but 20 degrees still isn't really my cup of tea. I'm thinking a Netflix day in bed is my plan, who knows haha. I keep making plans for myself and then end up not following through with them, typical.
Anyways, onto today's nails!
The nail(s) have/has eye(s)! Hehe (lame joke, my apologies haha)
I hope everyone is having a nice week so far, I've heard that a lot of places are having super bad weather and it's supposed to hit here today. My brother's school has already cancelled (I'm writing this at 8:30pm on Monday) /: Which sucks because I still have to work and my car is old. So old that it likes to freeze the doors closed if it's too cold D: Blah! Anyways, the Tri-Polish Challenge is back today!
Let's get onto the nails!
I kept it simple for today but I like the effect of these!
Do you have any plans for today? I'm today off and don't have any plans. Meh. I think I might go pick up another daylight bulb for my 2nd lamp and treat myself to Starbucks since I spent all day yesterday fixing my resume and portfolio. I also finished watching Series 4 of Doctor Who. D: I'm so sad to see David Tennant go but I guess I just have to keep an open mind. ): Maybe. Who knows? But I'm ranting! Sorry!
Onto the nails!
Man, I really sucked at clean-up on these haha. Whoops!
I'm back again with a 2nd post! I really need to start writing these posts ahead of time and by that I mean not at 6:15am the day the post needs to go up...It's cool. Whoops. What is sleep? Anyways today starts the FingerFood Theme Buffet!
Woo! Look at all those nails! This week was pretty dominated by glitter and I'm not complaining haha! I feel like this week was a bit of a low point for me and the blog. I had accidentally messed up my camera settings so I wasn't happy with my photos and I wasn't feeling all that inspired. I started showcasing a different indie brand, Cascade Polish, which is fun! But luckily, I've already gotten myself out of my rut and I'm super excited to show you everything I did this week!
I feel like for me the only way to keep pushing myself to do nail designs that I like is to keep pushing myself with challenges and making myself post. Normally for me, once I start slacking on something there is almost no chance of me going back to it anymore. So I've been painting my nails non-stop and I actually have decided to take part in 3 challenges this month! I'll be continuing my features (Music Monday, Skittles Wednesdays, and Indie Fridays) too!
The 1st challenge/collaboration is FingerFood's Theme Buffet! I'll be posting these posts on Sundays, which means double posts again. Here are the themes from that:
The 2nd challenge is the Tri-Polish Challenge! This challenge has gone through a re-vamp and now posts every Tuesday! I'm excited to continue on with this one!
And finally, the 3rd challenge is the Golden Oldie Thursday Polish Challenge! This challenge uses old polishes that you might have forgotten about! I haven't been blogging that long and most of my stash has been bought since I started the blog (I've bought almost 200 polishes since starting it -_-) but I do still own some older polishes, so I'm going to play along! Here are the prompts!
And holy cow, I wrote a bunch. Sorry guys! Haha but I hope you're looking forward to seeing what's coming up on Hey, Darling Polish! And if you're taking part in any of these challenges, I can't wait to see what you post!
Here is today's song!
The Morning Of - Shine
I'll be back later today with my animal print nails for the Theme Buffet!
Today's post is another Indie Friday! I showed you my collection of Live Life Polished polishes (here, here, and here) so now I decided we're moving on to the brand Cascade Polish! The only polishes I own from this brand are from her past Halloween collection but all of these are still available so it's totally okay to be showing Halloween polishes a week after Christmas! (: Hehehehe
And I've got 2 polishes for you all today! So let's get into it!
This first polish is called Howl!
More after the jump:
It's the 2nd day of 2014, woo? Haha I have to go back to work today so I'm not all that excited about it. But ahh well. I keep telling myself that the more I work, the more nail polish I can buy (;
Anyways that's look at the nails!
My favorite shape! Triangles! Hence why my blog background is full of triangles (:
I hope you all had a great night last night! Does anyone out there do anything special on New Years day? My family used to get together but we don't anymore. I'll probably just spend today painting my nails and watching Netflix! What a way to welcome the new year haha.
