Bad Things

By Jace Everett. I had always considered watching 'True Blood', but never actually started. Then my best friend told me to absolutely watch it. So I started the other night. Almost through the first season. I am in love/obsessed/UGH with this show! AND! I absolutely love the opening credits song.. I hate country music, but there are the few gems like this song and some off of the 'From Dusk Til Dawn' soundtrack that creep me out and make me LOVE them. Woo.. well.. on to the postage..

I used this tutorial by QueenofBlendingMUA for these nails.. Although I changed it up a smidge because I am not a *big* fan of rhinestones.. Scope the vid out HERE.

I had been thinking about using Breakin' for awhile.. But couldn't really think of anything to do with orange until October.. Glad I found this. I had wanted to use ORLY Calypso Breeze as the blue, but I use it quite often.. So figured I would give Sexy in the City another try. I actually really love this.

And as always, sorry for my lack of cleaning up.. Always when I finish a look I am super eager to post it up after it dries.

Ok, back to 'True Blood'.. Sigh. Does anyone else watch this show? If so, what do you think about it??

Hi, I like the nail art. It reminds me of modern art. I watched the first season of True Blood on HBO demand. And while I was intrigued. I just couldn't get into the whole vampire thing. I'm a bit of a scaredy cat...lol! When my husband and I were engaged,(this was eons ago...lol) we went with friends and saw Anne Rice's Interview With A Vampire on the big screen. And that just totaly spooked me forever with vampires. I'll never forget trying to go to sleep that night. Which was almost impossible...lol!

Cute design! I love the color combination you used. Sadly, I never watch TV because I just don't have the time, but it sounds interesting. Ive read a lot Vampire themed books and always enjoyed them.

I love this manicure. You really have the most fantastic looks. I love the diagonal colors and the dots. Amazing look! Your nails look beautiful. I watch TrueBlood. I love the show and watched the second season end on Sunday. I wish it would be on sooner. I read the books and they were terrific. I hate having such a bad memory. I can't remember most of the things that went on in the book. I know that some of the stuff has been written by a screen writer and wasn't in the book. I love any books or good movies that deal with vampires. If you haven't read the books you should. Let me know if you have?

Hey dee, loving that colour, 'breaking', it's off the chain! And your nails are gorge!
Also, I am in love with 'True Blood' as well, I'm catching up with the 2nd season now, and trying to refresh my memory by also watching some of the 1st season shows. HBO is a godsend, no commercials and a full 1 hour show!

Canada Day - Saran Wrap Style

I had said the other day that I would be using the Saran Wrap method again soon.. And I really did mean soon. I figure it was the perfect way to celebrate Canada Day (nail-wise) without over-doing it.. I mean, I'm fairly patriotic as a rule, but sometimes sporting a Maple Leaf on my fingers isn't exactly my style.. ANYways.. See? The love is there with the red and white.. I know I said the next time I did the saran wrap method, I was going to try with three colours.. But, I think I will maybe leave that experiment for tomorrow - today is only about these two colours! So.. How I get to this? Well, allow me to show you. Start off with the colours of your choice - one as the base, and one as your.. distress-er? And some saran/cling wrap. I take two pieces and ball them up.. You could use more or less.. But I figure two hands, two, er, balls. Yikes. After your base has COMPLETELY DRIED (you can do these a couple of hours in advance, the night before, or even use some

Day 27: The Hungry Asian Cookies (and) Cream

Hey everyone! I decided that for today and tomorrow (my last day - eeek!) that I would choose two polish that mean something to me. Today I am going to be sharing Cookies & Cream made by the awesome Kae aka The Hungry Asian. When I first started blogging, I immediately started following her. She is the reason behind many of my polish purchases.. heh. She started "frakening" polish awhile back.. and I had a HUGE lemming for Cookies & Cream - but, at the time, she wasn't shipping to Canada. Then, when she started to ship to Canada, I would always miss the restock times.. Then I just sort of.. forgot about it. Then, a little while back, while stumbling through all the amazing gems on etsy.. I saw a photo.. I didn't need to see the seller or the name.. I knew. It was ordered almost immediately. And it has sat.. until now. It still makes me heart smile. And now that it is mine? Constant smiling heart! I decided to not use undies on this. It is

Terrazzo Inspired Nails

 Hey everyone! Will speed-race past a whole 'sorry I have been away' write-up and just go straight to the goods. I apologize in advance for my VERY dry cuticles (I cleaned up as much as I could in edit mode.. but, still bad) - I have been applying oil and lotions multiple times per day for.. weeks.. and.. no beneficial results, sadly. I went with terrazzo print inspired nails for this go-round. I started with a base coat, then OPI I Cannoli Wear OPI, then, using the brush for the each nail polish, I went in with: OPI Suzi Shops & Island Hops, OPI Sailing & Nail-ing, OPI Amazon...Amazoff, China Glaze Liquid Leather, China Glaze Sweet Hook, Essie Chinchilly, Color Club Je Ne Sasi Quoi, and Sally Hansen White On - then finally topped with Seche Vite. I am hoping to slowly creep back into regularly posting new content here - so, stay tuned!
