Rustic Satin Florals

Hello lovelies!

Can you believe that it's already Monday? Wow. I've honestly been dreading this Monday in particular for a while now, because this is my last week of college classes. I do want to go back to school eventually to get my Masters, or another degree (packaging design? Maybe?), or even possibly becoming a certified nail tech....and I think it's pretty clear from that last run on sentence, that I have no idea. Which is slightly terrifying. But I do know that, it won't happen for a while. A year or two off from school will be nice.

But anyways, this is a nail blog. So, onto the nails!

At least I have florals to combat my fears of graduating......which I totally did not plan...this manicure just happened to be next up in my nail folder, but it works!

Glittery blobs

Hello lovelies!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and are prepared for the week! I've spent pretty much my entire weekend doing homework and I still feel behind. Blah. It'll all be worth it in the end though! (:

So, onto the nails!

Glittery, blobby nails? Cool!

The Nail Art Guild: Seasons

Hello lovelies!

Look who has a post for you guys! I keep disappearing after Thursday and missing my Indie Friday posts, because by the end of the week I'm exhausted and just end up falling asleep after class. The next two weeks or so are serious crunch time for school, so I can't promise that I'll be better at remembering to post but I'll try!

Anywho, let's get to the nails!

Also, The Nail Art Guild has changed how it's going to be run. Instead of posting every other week, the group will be posting once a month. Just a note for any of you who were maybe thinking about joining in.

Indie Sundays: KBShimmer - Make My Gray + Toucan Touch This

It has been so long since I did an Indie Fridays Weekend post and I missed getting this up on Friday. So, you're getting it today!

The Nail Challenge Collaborative: Wallpaper - #4

Hello lovelies!

I'm back with my final manicure for this month's The Nail Challenge Collaborative theme. I'm just squeezing this one in but hey, I did it!

Onto the nails!

My nails look so short here, meh ):

31 Day Challenge: Tranquility

Hello lovelies!

Late post today so let's get to the nails!

Today's theme was another tough one for me but I like what I ended up doing!

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!

Indie Sundays: KBShimmer - Let's Sleigh Together + Snow Way!

Hello lovelies!

I'm back with that second KBShimmer swatch post that I mentioned on Friday! If you haven't already seen my other KBShimmer posts, you can find them here and here.

Let's get to the nails!

The Nail Challenge Collaborative: Books - Week 4

Hello lovelies!

I'm back today with my last post for this month's The Nail Challenge Collaborative. I'm sad to see this theme go because I was really having fun with it, and I had a bunch of manicures I wanted to try but I ran out of time to do. 

Blah, anyways onto the nails!

And today we learn what happens when you pick the wrong base polish! Invisible nail art!

Nail Art Link Up: Music

Hello lovelies!

Look, two posts! I've got a few things that I need to get up before the end of November so I'm double posting to get it all in.

So, onto the nails!

I got to do some music inspired nail art! I miss doing these!

Hobby Polish Bloggers: November - Fall Favorites

Hello lovelies!

Look, another surprise weekend post! It's time for another Hobby Polish Bloggers post and this month's theme is all about our Fall favorites. I decided that I would show you guys three polishes that I think are great for Fall and then some nail art that I did with each!

So, onto the nails!

Indie Fridays!: 365 Days Of Color - The Diary

Hello lovelies!

It's been a while since I did an Indie Fridays post but I'm back with one for you. I've had these swatches and nail art done for so long, but I've been hiding them. Unfortunately, this polish isn't available anymore but you can probably find it in a blog sale like I did. 

Onto the nails!

The Nail Art Guild: Fall/Winter Fashion

Hello lovelies!

I have a random post for you all today, woo! I painted some nails to post for this month's book theme in The Nail Challenge Collaborative group, but I just realized that my inspiration was a poster, not a book. Ugh. But I never shared my nails here with you guys that I did for last Saturday's The Nail Art Guild post so I'll show you guys that!

Onto the nails!

At least the back-up nails are cute!

Lacquer Legion: After Dark

Hello lovelies!

I'm back with another post. Surprise! It's time for another Lacquer Legion post and this month's theme is "After Dark".

So, onto the nails!

These nails are such a contrast from what I posted this morning, wow haha!

HPB Oct. Halloween Mani Link-Up

Hello lovelies!

I don't normally post on Saturdays but one of the Facebook groups I'm in, the Hobby Polish Bloggers,  decided that we do a Halloween post link-up! The group is made up of so many awesome bloggers and people that I decided I had to do a post too. If you are looking for a new group to join, I highly recommend this one because everyone is so nice and super helpful if you have a question about anything nail polish or blogging related. It's definitely my favorite group for nail polish!

So, let's get onto the nails!

Pastel Halloween nails? I dig it!

The Nail Challenge Collaborative: Stripes - Week 3

Hello lovelies!

Who else is excited that it's almost the weekend? I think I'm starting to get sick so yeah, I'm ready for it haha. 

Anyways, let's get onto the nails!

I swear that doing nail art is going to make me go permanently cross eyed haha, meh whoops!

52 Week Challenge: 70s Wavy Stripes

Hello lovelies!

My posts just keeping going up later and later. Blah, my bad guys. 

Anyways, onto the nails!

Yesterday, we visited the 80s. Today, we're visiting the 70s (or at least my attempt at the 70s) woo!

Line Art Part Two

Hello lovelies!

Hopefully you all had a lovely weekend! I'm working on getting back into my old blogging schedule which means that Mondays are "do whatever I want days!" 

So, onto the nails!

Hello lovelies!

I'm super excited about today's post because not only do I get to tell you guys about a "new-to-me" indie brand but I get to tell you about an indie brand that is totally new. Like so new that their store just launched today! I have some polishes from their Fall 2014 Collcetion and their Halloween duo, so let's get to the swatches!
