31 Day Challenge 2015: Dotting Tools

Hello lovelies!

Guess who's job randomly started selling Zoya polishes? Mine. Guess what one of my favorite mainstream polish brands it? Zoya. Guess who is about to be in big trouble after her shift at work tomorrow? Me. Crap. Gah!! How am I supposed to have any self control when the display is literally like 10 steps from where I work?! This could end very badly....very, very, very badly....

Anywho....let's look at some nails!

Dotting tools and I actually got along, long enough for me to do this design! Woo!

NAIL Linkup: New Year's Eve

Hello lovelies!

It's New Year's Eve! I hope you guys all have something planned whether it be going out or staying in. I'll be spending most of my day at work, I got stuck with the closing shift today.....meh, but then I'll be hanging out with friends. Whatever you do, be safe and have fun!

Let's get to the nails!

I told you guys that I was ready for the glitter!

31 Day Challenge: Red

Hello lovelies!

Do you know what today is? Besides being a US holiday aka I don't have classes and yup....But it marks the start of the 31 Day Challenge! I know this challenge isn't specific to September but Sarah over at Chalkboard Nails has almost, kind of turned September into the "official" 31DC month so I decided to join in! I wanted to try this challenge last year when I first started blogging but was too intimidated and even though I've completed two 31 day challenges this year, I'm still nervous haha. 

But let's get onto the nails!

You guys can expect to see a lot of patterns this month (:

The Nail Art Guild: Music

Hello lovelies!

Do you guys know what today is? Do ya, do ya, do ya?!...

No guesses, okay, well....1 year ago today I wrote my first post here at Hey, Darling Polish! I can't believe that it's been a year since I started this blog. My main goal was to have a place to share my nail art but it's turned into so much more. I've met so many awesome nail polish addicts and I want to say thank you to everyone who had made this year a fun one!  I have something special planned but I can't post about it yet, but I promise it'll be good so keep your eyes open for that!<3

But I have some nail art for you today!

The Nail Art Guild is back today with music inspired nails!

FingerFood Theme Buffet: Holiday/Vacation

Hello lovelies!

Can you believe that we're already to the middle of week? I move back to Albany and into my new apartment, I'm finally living off campus this year, in exactly a week! And like every year, I haven't started packing yet....whoops...it'll get done...eventually...

Anywho, onto the nails!

Brownie points to whoever can guess what these nails are supposed to be? Haha!

Oh Mon Dieu 2 - Fashion Inspired

Hello lovelies!

I don't have anything exciting to say for an into today...I mean I only have 1 post for you all today. That's different! I've been double posting almost everyday this month and I've gotten used to it. Now I find it weird to only have 1 post for you guys.....Hey, look, an intro! (:

Onto the nails!

These nails are probably the closet to a classic french tip manicure that you will see on this blog....ever....

Oh Mon Dieu 2 - Roses

Hello lovelies!

There's only a week left of the OMD2 challenge, this month has gone by so fast! I've hardly been keeping up on posts but I have the next 3 days off from work, so I'm planning on getting ahead (:

Anywho, onto the nails!

Hmm, funny, I think I've seen this design once or twice before. Good thing it's pretty awesome (;

Oh Mon Dieu 2 - Fruit

Hello lovelies!

Guess who has gotten really good at multi-tasking!...overnight...Like so good that I got like 5 manicures done, edited all the photos, and wrote today's posts all while watching 7+ episodes of Criminal Minds! #productive

Oh, and I hit 1000 Instagram followers yesterday! It still shocks me that so many of you are interested in what I do here and continue to read/look at the photos. I can't thank you guys enough!<3

Anywho, onto the nails!

Brownie points to whoever can guess what fruit these nails were inspired by!

Oh Mon Dieu 2 - Feathers

Hello lovelies!

Hopefully everyone's week is off to a nice start! I get tomorrow off from work so I'd say mine is off to a decent start (:

Anywho, onto the nails!

I feel like I've tried a lot of different things while doing this challenge, which is why I love them. And is no exception since this is my first attempt at feather nails!

Oh Mon Dieu 2 - Animal Print

Hello lovelies!

Can you believe that July is almost over already?! Where did the time go? I haven't even finished watching Season 3 of Criminal Minds yet, let alone even think about my summer homework assignment.....yeah, whoops, forgot about that. (Side note: I know that one of my professors and a few of my classmates know about my blog so on the off chance that you're reading this post, that last sentence was a complete and utter lie....)

Anywho, onto the nails!

Brownie points to whoever can guess what animal print I *tried* painting on my nails!

Oh Mon Dieu 2 - Dotticure

Ello!

Okay, so, THIS POST....grrr...if you follow me on twitter then you might already know about this but if not you can follow me here (; But so I went to edit the photos for this post last night only to find that I forgot to transfer the photos from my memory card to my computer. I was hoping that they were still on my memory card but I deleted photos off of it to make more room, so I had to redo the nails, photo them, edit the photos, and write this post....at 3am.....#dedication

Anywho, onto the nails!

It's a good thing that I liked these nails the first time around because I did exactly the same thing this time around haha!

Oh Mon Dieu Part Deux - Abstract

Ello!

I caught up on all my blog reading! It took all day but I honestly had nothing better to do.....so yeah. I probably could have run some errands (aka I'm running out of acetone) but ehh,  my pajamas are comfy.

Anyways, onto the nails!

I really did not intend to paint camo-like nails today, it just kind of happened. Whoops!

Oh Mon Dieu 2 - Rainbow

Hello lovelies!

Okay, so random question but have any of you guys ever tried painting your nails in bed? If you have, teach me your ways! My mom needed the table that I normally paint my nails and blog at for her garage sale this weekend and she's trying to sell our kitchen table....so, we don't have any tables in the house...which is why I'm trying to paint my nails in bed and failing miserably! #nailbloggerproblems?

Anywho, onto the nails!

Today's theme is all about rainbows! I don't think I've ever done rainbow nails before so yay for new things (:

Lacquer Legion: Garden

Ello!

I have another post for you all today because the Lacquer Legion is back today! This month's theme is a garden.

Onto the nails!

I've been wanting to try floral nails for so long and I finally decided to do it!

FingerFood Theme Buffet: Nature

Ello!

I hope everyone had a good weekend and is enjoying their Sunday! 

Lets get to the nails!

I filed my nails down so I have "shortish" nails! I keep debating going down to nubs but always settle on this length when they get too long. I can deal with this length since they don't get caught on things.

Nail Art Ideas Linkup: May - Clouds

Hello lovelies!

I hope you're all having a lovely week so far! I already finished season 1 of Criminal Minds since I finished school less than 2 weeks ago, which I think is a good indicator of how mine is going (: 

Also, I don't have a post for the Never Ending Pile Challenge for you all today since the prompt is giveaway/blog sale polish. I've already blogged about the polishes that I've won and I've never bought from a blog sale before. I feel weird skipping 2 days but I have a N.A.I.L. post for you all!

So, onto the nails!

These clouds seem so happy compared to the thunderstorm that we're currently having right now. I'd much rather have these clouds outside right now!

FingerFood Theme Buffet: Week 14 - Delicious

Hello lovelies!

I hope you all had a lovely weekend! Mine was actually pretty productive and I even had the chance to hang out with friends, so mine was really nice (:

Anyways, onto the nails!

Pizza nails! Gah! At least they're supposed to be pizza....

FingerFood Theme Buffet: Week 9 - Flowers

Hello lovelies!

Look my FingerFood Theme Buffet posts are back on Sundays! Woo! I feel like I kind of put all the other challenges on the back burner last month and I kind of neglected being active in the other groups but I'm back now! And I'm excited!

Onto the nails!

I've been wanting to paint roses on my nails for a while now so this was perfectly timed!

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go: Day 28 - Art Nouveau

Hello lovelies!

Today is the last day of the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go challenge! This month flew by so fast, I don't even feel like the challenge started! It's been a tough month with all the posting but I'm so happy that I took part in this challenge. I feel like my nail art abilities and confidence have really been pushed. Thank you Missy! (:

Onto the nails! 

I hate ending challenges, it's so sad D:

Golden Oldie Thursdays: Chevrons

Hello lovelies!

Did you miss me? Probably not….is it possible to be that annoying blogger who posts too much? I feel like I might be being that person this month if said thing exists. Meh, I'm still having fun and I like what I've been creating!

Anyways, weird rant to the side, nails!

I love these nails so much!!<3
