Color Accent

Here are is my Color (I seriously want a 'u' in there!!) Accent entry for the PHD Challenge

I actually liked what I did. I can honestly say they looked better irl, but oh well! I wanted to wear the look for a few days, but for some reason my one and only grey polish seems to be missing!! Grr!! We (being my sister and I) know that she used it last.. And we literally looked everywhere. I am not impressed. 1 - it is a perfect grey to me and 2 - it is Orly.. that brand is not readily available to me.. I have to order it in. Guh. So not impressed.

For this look, I used OPI Alpine Snow (will need a third/fourth backup asap), CG Liquid Leather & CG In The Lime Light. I also mixed Alpine Snow and Liquid Leather for the grey. I was going to keep mixing so I could paint up my other hand.. But I didn't want to use a bottle to mix, so it dries super quickly!!


Like I have been saying in my past few posts, I had surgery.. And I'm sort of starting to bounce back.. But I feel so different.. In a good way! Anyways, this part is going to be about friends. I seriously think I might have the greatest friends ever. They have been texting me like crazy to keep me company and dropping in for visits.. But, they also have brought me gifts. My parents are like 'they don't have to do this! tell them!' - my family has always been like that. Of course I tell them that gifts are not necessary, but you know the thing with gifts.. They are kind of nice to receive (:

Ok, the little key chain and lip gloss are actually from my besties trip to France (for the Cannes film fest). The lip gloss is called 'Mood Swing', and apparently the different shades are activated by your emotions (aka your body heat).. So, according to the side, I always in the zones of 'Dirty Thoughts', 'Hot & Bothered' and 'Bask In The Afterglow'. Gosh dang body temp! Makes me seem sort of pervy.. (;

The key chain is also adorable, the container she came in reads 'Kimmi Junior' and she is Daisy.. My friend bought her because she has red hair and I enjoy dabbling in the redhead family hair pool!

She is the one that also bought me that little Zhu Zhu pet hamster. His name is Tex and Bennie (the lovely pet degu) is not too fond of him as he squawks back! She loved the little hamster so much she went out and bought one for her cat to play with. Adorable!

Then, one of my other close friends stopped in last night. First off, the bag she put my gifts in was white with black polka dots - I obviously loved it already!! She bought me an intriguing book called 'Little Bee' - seriously, there is basically no description (she even looked online, same thing) so that amazes me! I cannot wait to start reading it!! She also bought me this amazing peach body wash.. It smells like fuzzy peach candies.. And a really gorgeous candle (pictured above) the casing is so cute and it smells like fresh laundry.. I was burning it for a bit last night.. I plan on doing my nails pretty soon here.. So I will be smelling fresh laundry instead of nail polish!

I am in no way bragging about these gems, I am just really happy about them all! Plus, if my friends ever stumble over this blog, they will know (even more so) how much I appreciate them! They are the best!!

I hope everyone is having a great Thursday! I have to do my nails and go see my doctor.. I have a fairly busy day.. For me.. As of late!

Later (:

Your nails look awesome!! I love them.
And yay for amazing friends! :D I've never had surgery, but once I was sick last year for a little bit and my friends brought a bag of my favorite candies and a balloon and left them on our front porch. They did the whole ding-dong-ditch thing. It was great.

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

Revlon Giveaway

GIVEAWAY CLOSED! WINNERS TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON!! Yaaaay! I am really excited to do this for all of you! I really appreciate all of you following me and commenting on my posts - it is amazing! So, I figured it was time to give back a bit. Now, this isn't a monster giveaway that I want to do - that will come sometime later. I have it all planned in my mind - BUT - until then, you'll have to put up with this! I picked up 3 polishes from the new Revlon collection the other day and really wanted to grab extras to giveaway, but the store was sold out of one of the colours after I bought it, and so, that thought was quickly squashed. Then, this evening, I ran in to another shop quickly - and they had a whole wealth of them - bingo! Giveaway time! The colours are: Starry Pink, Blue Mosaic & Facets of Fuchsia Supposedly FoF is a DL Bad Romance dupe. Sadly, I do not own that polish (I really, really wish I did) - but this polish is stunning - in fact, they all are! Thi
