Pineapple Mani + Summer Nail Art Challenge Entry

Hey everyone! I came across a tutorial for some seriously adorable nails.. and I knew I had to copy them immediately because the nails featured pineapples, and to me, pineapples scream summer.. and.. well, it is summer right now, so, it was basically the perfect time. Makes sense, right?! I followed THIS TUTORIAL for the most part.. kind of took my own spin, but that is usually how that works, for me anyways.. Then, once they were done, I thought to myself: 'there is too much blank space', and I quickly added in some pink dots. Perfection! I used: Duri Rejuvacote (base coat) China Glaze Sweet Hook Sally Hanse Pacific Blue Lime Crime Once In A Blue Mousse China Glaze Fairy Dust Fan Brush HK Girl Glisten & Glow Also, the day I was first sporting these nails, I got a message from Nail Polish Canada about a Summer Nail Art Challenge - ahh fitting, these are a perfect entry for that! Two birds, meet one stone. I did receive sooo many compliments on the

Mod Cloth Bubbly Beverage Dress

Hey everyone! The other day, I was contacted by a ModStylist over at ModCloth and asked if I wanted to participate in a nail art challenge; the challenge? To do a design based off of one of the zillion dresses currently offered on the website. Uhh, yeah, I would love to do that! Unfortunately, I had a very busy weekend and the post is due up by Monday, but I was able to sit down earlier and really go through the dresses that I had selected as inspiration. Then I figured I would choose a dress that I would absolutely, 100% wear. Then it was easy. Something black.. with white.. and dots! There were a few options, but I went with the Bubbly Beverage Dress . At first, I did most of the nails just featuring one of the dot designs.. which was large dots with mini black dots running throughout, medium dots, and small dots. I was fairly happy with it.. then I decided that each nail should feature all dot designs (except for my pinky) and in the same triangular fashion. Awesome. I liked

The Great Polish Giveaway of 2014

Hey everyone! Clearly if you're here, you're like me, and either absolutely love nail polish, or at least have a slight fondness for it. As long as I am going with that assumption, I am also going to say that you also love a giveaway.. and it is even better if it is a giveaway of nail polish! I know my eyes bugged out a bit when I received this e-mail from Nail Polish Canada talking about a ginormous giveaway - that only grows with the help of bloggers. Duh. Of course I am going to put in my two cents!! I was asked to bring attention to this already rad giveaway, and then to nominate a polish - sure, I have zero problems with that. The polish I choose to nominate for this giveaway is piCture pOlish Honey Dew. Why? 1. It is a shade of green. 2. It is bright. 3. It screams summer. 4. I don't own it, and that makes me really sad. I mean, look at it ! The more bloggers that get involved, the larger the prize gets.. how bad ass is that? I cannot wait to see other posts
