Gradation polish

Here's what I'm currently wearing. It's Kiss Gradation polish - a 3-step polish system for a glitter gradient. I think it looks pretty cool. What do you think?

Eh, not sure about this, but oh well

I'm not sure if I'm feeling this mani or not. It is Avon's mirror shine polish - the color is called Polish stamped with Black Creme. I used Butter London shine free topcoat for the matte effect.

Valentine's Day nails

Sorry it's been so long since my last post. Today I have some stamping to share. I used Orly's Decades of Dysfunction for the base and stamped with China Glaze's Red Satin. Then I topped it with NOPI's Kimpletely in Love - a sheer pink shimmer. The whole thing is topped with Seche Vite.

Yeah, I had to get a chest for my polish

So, last week I went to ikea to get something to organize my polish. I looked at the Helmer and like that Olympic gymnast, I was not impressed. The floor model had a dent in it and I didn't like that it was made of metal. For $40 I couldn't justify it.

So, for a little bit more $, I got a Kullen chest of drawers. The first 2 drawers are more shallow than the other 3, thus making them perfect for polish. I put scarves and hats in one drawer. I will probably put socks and sweaters in the others.

Also, I counted the polish and have 110 bottles. That's not including base and topcoats. Yikes!

Rrrrrrew, with DC

Today I have some cat-like strips. These are from 5 below and don't have a specific name.



 
On a side note, did anyone watch the Golden Globes last night? I was so glad "Girls" won. Love that show! Gotta love that Lena Dunham thanked Chad Lowe.

I am kind of mad that my other fave show, "Big Rich Texas" wasn't nominated.

Need a break from nail glitter overload

I have been wearing so much glitter on my nails that I needed a but of a break. Who would have thought I'd get tired of glitter? I'm also tired of nacho cheese, which is another shocker, but that's a different story.

This is China Glaze Hook and Line. I really like this color. I think I may have posted a pic of it a few months back. I just did this mani, though literally about 15 minutes ago!



Fab slippers

So, this has nothing to do with nails, but I just had to share a pic of my new slippers. I got them at Charming Charlie. They were on clearance and were the last pair and they were my size. It was fate. They are so snugly that I mistook them for my cat while I was in the midst of a killer migraine and tried to pet them.

I really want to wear them in public. Think I would be able to get away with that?

These are so comfy that I rode my exercise bike in them yesterday


Studs and fur. Just the way I like it. Uh yeah, I don't know what that means.


Close-up of the fur. Very cat like. Scary.
