30 Day Nail Challenge - Day 4: Green

So I really enjoyed this one, so nice to get away from oranges and yellows! Just not my thing lol. I did an ombré style for the green day, and was very happy with the way it turned out. :) Colors light to dark: Zoya Tracie, OPI Hot Fun in the Summer-Lime, China Glaze Starboard, Orly Wandering Vine, Zoya Edyta. Can't wait for Day 5! :)

Mini Haul From Ulta+OPI Ali's Big Break.

So I totally forgot to post this a while ago, I was supposed to do it last week, but forgot lol. These are just a few clearance polishes I picked up at Ulta, OPI Ali's Big Break, OPI Take The Stage, and China Glaze Aqua Baby. I thought the first two were perfect for the holidays, and it makes sense since these were part of OPI's Burlesque Holiday Collection last year. And Aqua Baby is just a really gorgeous blue...don't let the name fool you, this has no hint of aqua or a similar color, it's just a true blue. 

So I wore Ali's Big Break last weekend, and it's a red color with pink undertones, and gold shimmer. Really, really pretty. I absolutely love reds, and have a hard time passing up any. :)

So that's it for now, hopefully this weekend I can post another tutorial. :) Thanks for stopping by!

New Nails Today!

I decided to change my nails tonight, thought I'd start trying out some of my new goodies. :) I went with OPI DS Mystery and then stamped a design over that with Ulta Brownette.

 You can kind of see the purple in there...I just did them tonight so I didn't get any pics in the sunlight, I will try to do that tomorrow. Overall, this design turned out pretty cool, can't wait to try out more! :)

Mini Haul For This Week :)

So I told myself that I shouldn't buy anymore polish for a little while, at least until next week haha...but I just couldn't resist. I had some good discounts to use, so I took another trip to Ulta. :) I've been totally obsessed with browns and taupes lately! They all look so gorgeous to me so I chose a few for myself, I hope they look as good on as they do in the bottle! 

From left to right: Ulta Brownette, Ulta Taupe On A Rope, Zoya Jules, Zoya Codie, and OPI DS Mystery. Taupe On A Rope is a pretty taupe with gold shimmer, I tried to show that in the next pic:

Zoya Codie is a very nice brown from their 2011 Fall Collection Smoke...I am slowly getting into their fall line, and slowly falling in love with the colors. :) OPI DS Mystery is not a brown shade, it's more of a deep purple with gold sparkle...I have heard mixed comments about this shade, but I couldn't resist trying it out for myself! Here's a closer look at these two:

 I can't wait to try out all of these and create awesome new designs for the Fall! Thanks for stopping by! :)
