Striped Accent

Suuuup Girls!!!

Although this post today is just so-so as I had to take the picture with my phone things are about to change!  I got to work today and my new power cord for my computer is finally in!  I have pictures on my camera that I can't wait to download.  You will for sure see alot more of me......I promise you this ;)  Let's just hope its the right cord!

For this look I used Sally Hansen's Salon Effect's in 'Plum Night'.  I used striping tape on my ring finger to add a little something something

See you soon!

Black Pearls

Not really sure what's going on here. My options were limited as far as vault photos.  I did these sometime last week so I wouldn't necessarily classify them as 'vault' yet.  My nails are in horrible shape right now....were talking disgusting.  Blah!

Today is suppose to be 'Inspired by Artwork' on the 31 Day challenge but alas I'm late again. I think I'll just suck it up and do them tonight regardless of how nasty my nails are. I think you guys can handle it and if not just look away ;)

For these nails I used Rimmel's 'Red Stilleto' and the black is Sally Hansen's Complete Salon Manicure in a sparkly black

Green Giraffe

When picking out this stamp and the colours I figured I wouldn't be a fan of the end result.  Wrong-o!!!

I was shocked by how cool it looked.  Not to mention who wouldn't want to be a green giraffe!!  I guess you never really know until you try something. I've picked colours that I thought would look great together and they ended up being blahhh.  These nails are something I could wear to work.  It's not too in your face but still very fun.

I used Essie's 'Gym Dandy' for the base.  This is one of the $1.99 clearance polishes I picked up from the Yogaga collection.  The stamp is Bundle Monster  BM313.  I've found that quite a few of Sally Hansen's Complete Salon Manicure polishes work great for stamping.  This is 'Grass Slipper'

What do you guys think? Not for everyone but I think its fun

31 Day Challenge: Polka Dots

I'd like to start off my saying 10 DAYS LEFT FOR MY GIVEAWAY/CHALLENGE !!!

 Remember any type of food whether it be candy, 5 course meal, I'm even going to include drinks!  Just post your link in the comment section of my post.  Anytime now................... :oP

It's polka dot time!!!!!!!
I was considering doing basic polka dots because there my favourite.  I ended up doing this blah mani instead.  I didn't have much time last night and the sun had set.  I hate not having sunlight photos.  The days are getting shorter here. Soon it will be dark when I go into work and dark when I go home. Very depressing!

The full nail is two coats of Revlon's 'Chic'.  The polka dots are in Revlon's 'Vixen', Sally Hansen's Complete Salon in 'Guilty Pleasure' and Essie's 'Yogaga'.    I was so disappointed that Yogaga was a limited edition.  Someone was looking out for me though.  I went to Shopper's Drug Mart yesterday and they were on final clearance!  I picked up the last two. yayyyyyyy! Only $1.99 each.  The Revlon polishes I bought not to long ago. Currently they are $3.99 but Revlon Canada has coupons all over the web for a dollar off.  $2.99 baby!

31 Day Challenge: Purple (a day late)

Yes I know ....I'm a day late.  In my defence though it was a long weekend. I had no idea until I saw Kimber's.  eeeeeks!  So I ran home and did up this look. Thank goodness my nails were already purple.


When at the CNE in Toronto I picked up some Sally Hansen Salon effects strips(see below!).   I had on 'Violet Night'.  This was a time saver when doing my nails last night.   The other two colours used in this mani are Sally Hansen X-treme Wear in 'Lacey Lilac' and Revlon's 'Impulsive'. 

I promise not to miss another day challenge!

I wanted to add a couple pictures of my visit to the CNE.  This is just one booth that had nail polish......one!  There was a ton of these.  Thousands and thousands of nail polish there.  Unfortunately I went on the last weekend so they were pretty much just grandma colours left.  Some fun colours but nothing I thought I would want.   One booth did however have Sally Hansen Salon Effects.  I decided to pick up some of those and one double pack of Borgese nail polish and top coat.  6 for $20.00...you can't go wrong ;)



Random lip gloss in there  :oP



My only nail purchase

BOGO Nail Polish at Shoppers Drug Mart

BOGO BABY! Who wouldn't love it?!

Earlier this week I received an email coupon from Shoppers Drug Mart. It was buy one polish get the second free. It was only on from 6pm to 9pm.  The cashier said I was the first one to use it(of course). Naturally I printed out three of them.  I only used 2 so it made me feel a little better.  I thought instead of just doing a regular swatch  I’d add a little fun to it.

The first two colours are Quo By Orly.  For the base colour I used ‘Lilac Dust’.  In the pictures it looks a little more pink then it actually is.  I couldn’t find the right lighting to capture the shade as it was dark out by the time I did it.  The polka dots are in ‘Blue Skies’.  I can’t resist these baby blue colours that are always coming out.  I’m no huge fan of blue in everyday life but when it comes to nail polish I’m a sucker

On a side note I was wondering if it is okay to do the middle finger as the accent? We all know what the middle finger can stand for...

The second BOGO set are both Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure.   The green is ‘Grass Slipper’ and the purple pink is ‘ Cherry, Cherry, Bang, Bang!’  Both have really weird names....I love them anyways ;o)
