Sparkle Dots

Hello lovelies!

Gah, I keep missing my posts on Friday! I have all of my photos edited and everything too, so it really was just me being lazy haha. To be fair, it was my last day of classes and the opening of the Senior BFA show here on campus. My parents came down to celebrate the show, so I'm going to say that it was a justified miss!

I'm just going to stop rambling and get to the nails now!

Polka dots and triangles? Uh, YES PLEASE!

The Nail Challenge Collaborative: 3rd Anniversary Recreations #4

Hello lovelies!

Gah, I missed posting yesterday! I had the photos edited and everything, but I gave my last presentation of the semester and then spent like five hours in the screen printing studio. Oh, well, you guys just get double the posts today (:

So, onto the nails!

Any guesses on what blogger inspired my last recreation for this month's The Nail Challenge Collaborative post?

The Nail Challenge Collaborative: 3rd Anniversary Recreations #3

Hello lovelies!

It feels weird to be posting on a Sunday. I haven't blogged much this month which means that I've fallen behind on getting some of my challenge manicures up, hence this random post.

I like these nails though, so let's get to the polish!

Brownie points to whoever can figure out what blogger I decided to mimic today!

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.

The Nail Challenge Collaborative: 3rd Anniversary Recreations #2

Hello lovelies!

I have a post today! I only missed two days but I missed blogging haha. The portfolio review event went well, but I needed a little break to get myself focused on other classes again. This weekend needs to be spent wrapping up a bunch of different projects, but I should be able to go back to my normal blogging schedule next week!

Anyways, let's get to today's nails!

I'm loving these colors together!

NAIL Linkup: Easter

Hello lovelies!

Happy Easter to those of you who celebrate! I'll be spending my day doing homework at work but I had some time to put together a look for the holiday.

So, onto the nails!

Bunnies!

The Nail Challenge Collaborative: Fashion #3

Hello lovelies!

I'm back! With nails! Because well, nail blog! Yeah!

Onto the post!

I just realized that I used my old high school's colors for this....meh...

Hobby Polish Bloggers: March - St. Patrick's Day

Hello lovelies!

I have a Sunday post for you guys! It's time for another Hobby Polish Bloggers link up and this month's theme was to create something related to St. Patrick's Day. I know I said that I probably wasn't going to do any holiday nail art but I don't know. I lied. It's alright. 

Here's something that I'm not lying about though. The Hobby Polish Bloggers is a Facebook group for, you guessed it, hobby polish bloggers! The group is filled with awesome bloggers who are always willing to help out by answering questions or sharing their opinions. I've learned so much just from reading the other discussions that happen and I've always gotten a bunch of feedback when I ask a question. If you're new to polish blogging or are thinking of starting a blog, I would recommend joining this group and getting involved!

Oh boy that turned into a rant for some reason and I don't know why soooo, onto the nails!

Sparkles and gold coins! Happy St. Patrick's Day!

NAIL Linkup: Least Favorite Polish (Color)

Hello lovelies!

No introduction today so....

Onto the nails!

On Wednesdays, we wear pink...............nailed it.

Dots & Stripes or Stripes & Dots

Hello lovelies!

It's the beginning of another week! I don't have many things due this week for school, so let's hope this week is a little less stressful than last week. I've already finished one of my projects that's due on Thursday, so I think we're off to a good start!

Anywho, onto the nails!

These nails though? Meh, maybe, we're off to just an okay start...

Hobby Polish Bloggers: February - Valentine's

Hello lovelies!

Look who is back! I normally don't post on Sundays, but I missed a few posts because of school and being sick, and some of the awesome people in the Hobby Polish Bloggers Facebook group are all posting together. I didn't want to miss this month's post so I'm getting this in on the final day! Gah!

Onto the nails!

Daww, how cute!

N.A.I.L Linkup - Skulls

Hello lovelies!

Quick post today because I have my presentation today. Gah! I'm nervous but at the same time I'm not because I know what I'm talking about but at the same time, I'm just kind of meh. That probably made no sense but has this blog ever made sense?

Nope, didn't think so. Onto the nails!

Oh boy, these nails....haha....

N.A.I.L Linkup: Hot Pink

Hello lovelies!

It's a new month, which means new themes for the N.A.I.L Linkup. I have to admit that most of the themes this month aren't normally things that I would try but that's what makes challenges fun! Check out either Brijit's Digits, Craftynail, Eeeek Nail Polish!, or Nail That Accent! for more information.

Onto the nails!

I'm just going to put a little warning here...none of the photos in the post are color accurate. My camera hated the base polish that I used and I didn't have the time to do a bunch of editing, so please don't use these photos as reference for purchasing decisions!

Hello lovelies!

31 Day Challenge 2015: Three Shades of Green and Yellow

Hello lovelies!

Super late post tonight but I'm still on time with the challenge! I've only had two days of classes but it's pretty much already gotten a bit crazy. Yay! I'm still here though!

So, onto the nails!

I'm still like half asleep right now, so I don't even know what to say here. I took a "nap" after my studio class this morning and was in such a deep sleep that I couldn't remember what day it was when I woke up. So, I mean, there's that.

31 Day Challenge 2015: Recreate A Mani By Your Favorite Blogger

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!
