52 Week Challenge: Outlined Holo

Hello lovelies!

I have a quick post for you guys today. I'm done with all of my classes but I have a bunch of final projects that I need to finish up.

So, let's get to the nails!

I just realized that I rarely ever wear orange nail polish. Weird....

52 Week Challenge: Neon Sea Fans

Hello lovelies!

I have a quick post for you today. There's a lot going on this week and I have a bunch of final projects that I need to finish. I have all of my posts prepped for this week, I just need to find the time to write.

But let's get the nails!

These nails are weird, but I like them!

52 Week Challenge: Glitter-y Neon Petals

Hello lovelies!

Can you believe that it's only Tuesday? Yesterday seriously felt like it was so long. Hopefully you all are having a better week!

Anywho, let's get to the nails!

I think I'm starting to remember just how much I love doing/wearing nail art, and this manicure has definitely helped with that (:

52 Week Challenge: Negative Dotty Pastels

Hello lovelies!

Long time, no post. Right? Okay, it's been less than a week but it still feels like a long time. I thought I'd be able to get back into blogging like normal this past week but things have been crazy. I've spent the last week preparing projects to submit to the end of the year Senior show for the gallery on campus, I went home, attended a design conference, went out for a bachelorette party, and now I'm preparing the work that got into the show for the gallery plus homework. Usually I'd try harder to get a blogpost in but I guess lately, I haven't really been feeling super motivated to blog or paint my nails even. I think I'm doing better now that I took most of last week off, but we'll see how things go from here. I do miss blogging so I know that I'm not completely over it. We'll just take it day by day for now!

But, no more ranting. Onto the nails!

These nails are definitely not my best work though....meh.

52 Week Challenge: Classy Needle Drag

Hello lovelies!

I have a super quick post for you guys today. I actually have a Portfolio Review event tonight and I'm super nervous! I know how to talk about my design work and my reasoning behind my decisions, but I'm so shy that I usually just kind of sit quietly in the background. I'm typing this up and then getting right back to looking over all of my work!

So, onto the nails!

These nails are really pretty, so at least I have that going for me haha!

52 Week Challenge: Music + Not Worn Enough

Hello lovelies!

I'm posting a little later the normal because I was having some laptop troubles this morning. Luckily, everything is alright now and I can write this post then get back to homework. 

So, onto the nails!

Subtle nail art is cool. I think...

52 Week Challenge: Stained Glass Fractals

Hello lovelies!

We survived Monday! I thought this week was going to start off super stressful, which it still will be really stressful because of how much work I have to do, but I'm feeling okay. I just need to keep working....a lot....but that's alright. It's a good thing that I'm ahead on posts for this week. Yay, for being able to stay on top of some of things!

Anywho, onto the nails!

I think today's nails are super cool too, so that's fun!

52 Week Challenge: Kids TV

Hello lovelies!

I hope you are all having a decent week so far! It's day two of my break but I really need to sit down and get some work done soon, because I'm slacking.......and seriously, there's no time to slack right now.....meh.

Anywho, onto the nails!

Who can guess what kids' television show these nails are inspired by?

52 Week Challenge: Metallic Ikat

Hello lovelies!

Today's post is going to be a quick one. I accidentally fell asleep from 11pm yesterday to 3am today and now I need to do my homework....my sleep schedule is so messed up, I don't even know anymore haha....

Anywho, onto the nails!

I haven't done ikat nails in so long!

52 Week Challenge: Fiery Houndstooth

Hello lovelies!

So, that whole introduction yesterday about how this week should be better than the last couple? Yeah, no, not really. There's a lot of stuff that needs to get done but I've got coffee, so I'll make it! Woo!

Onto the nails!

At least my first attempt at free-handing a houndstooth pattern turned out pretty good (:

52 Week Challenge: All Of The Triangles

Hello lovelies!

Today's post is going to be a quick one, again. I feel like I keep starting all of my posts with that and it's crappy. But the first half of this week has been/will be a bit hectic because I have a presentation tomorrow that I need to prepare for. My little motto right now is, "no sleep till Wednesday plus all of the coffee!" 

So, onto the nails and being one day closer to a nap!

Oh my, I forgot how much I loved these nails!

52 Week Challenge: Purple Heart

Hello lovelies!

Quick post today because I'm not feeling too great.

Onto the nails!

Isn't Valentine's day coming up soon or something? Maybe? I think...I don't know, look hearts!

52 Week Challenge: Black + Blue Florals

Hello lovelies!

Now that the 31 Day Challenge is over, it's time to get back to the 52 Week Challenge! Kind of weird how the 52 Week Challenge sounds way more intimidating but it's the 31 Day Challenges that kick your butt...or maybe that's just me. Anyways, I'll be combining the two themes for each week again.

Onto the nails!

Blue nails and flowers? These themes couldn't be anymore perfect!

52 Week Challenge: Purple Love

Hello lovelies!

Today's post will be quick because it's late and I have to work tomorrow. Typical, right? I really need to learn to manage my time better....uhm, anyways, nail polish!

Onto the nails!

I forgot how much I like using the watercolor technique for a nail art base, but I'm glad I remembered because I like these!

52 Week Challenge: Distressed Stripes

Hello lovelies!

Quick post today because I honestly forgot how tired work makes me. Standing for 7 hours wearing ballet flats kills your feet. I'm also really good at running into things while working and I already have a bunch of bruises....It's a tough life being clumsy.

Anywho, onto the nails!

Can you guys believe that those stripes were freehanded? Because I can't! Man when I started this blog, I had no idea what a striping brush even was or how to use one. I've giving myself a pat on the back for this one!

52 Week Challenge: Glittery Zig-Zags

Hello lovelies!

I missed a day again, blah. I'm back home for Winter break now, but I have my little nail desk all set-up so more nail art is coming your way! 

Let's get to today's nails!

Told you guys that I was a little burnt out on Christmas colors haha.

52 Week Challenge: Glammy Glitter

Hello lovelies!

Guess who is officially done with the semester? Me! All my final projects are done and turned in, and I have no more meetings this week! I've caught up on all my blog reading and I'm building my vault back up for posts. So yay!

Anyways, onto the nails!

And the best way to celebrate the end of the semester is with super sparkly nails (:

52 Week Challenge: Glitter Camouflage

Hello lovelies!

I hope your week is off to a great start! I have another quick post for you guys since I have a ton of work to do today.

So, onto the nails!

Glitter and camouflage? Yep, I don't know!

52 Week Challenge: Zoya Strokes

Hello lovelies!

Long time, no post....okay, it's only been five days but it feels like a long time to me. I've explained my little absence on Instagram a little bit but short and sweet: I'm back home from school for Thanksgiving break and I really just needed a few days away from school work and blogging. I'm slowly getting myself organized again to start blogging more (we won't talk about that homework....woof) but expect some posts coming your way!

So, let's get to the nails!

These first couple of posts will probably be short and simple.

52 Week Challenge: The Historian

Hello lovelies!

How is your day going so far? I don't really know what to write today so we're going to hope this post comes out alright haha. I fell asleep at like 7pm last night because I wasn't feeling well, and I woke up at 4am this morning. Weird, right? I'm wide awake but kind of just feeling blah. I'm hoping that coffee helps because I have a lot I want to get done!

Anyways, onto the nails!

I feel like I don't wear brown nail polish enough. Which, actually, it's been almost a month since I last posted brown nails....and I don't know where I was going with that...so okay, yeah, moving on!
