Happy Halloween!

Hi folks, Happy Halloween! I hope everyone's safe and sound from Hurricane Sandy. We're getting some wind and rain but nothing major. What's Sandy doing in your neighbourhood?

While trying to come up with some creative for a Halloween mani, I came across these little gems.

Nail polish storage issues aside...I couldn't resist picking up some great finds this week. I found a full size bottle of Alpine Snow (great for nail art!). Two other great finds were, Nothin' Mousie "Bout It from the Minnie Mouse Collection and Just Spotted This Lizard from the Spider Man Collection. The purchase I'm most excited to try are the OPI Pure Lacquer Nail Apps.

Pirate Nails

The Tall Ships Festival is about to sail into my city and to get into the festive mood I thought I would do some nail art. I was originally going to do  your boring run of the mill skull and cross bones but then I found some wonderful inspiration online.

Canada Day Nails!

I love this mani so much that I couldn't not post about it. For all my Canadian readers I hope you had a fantastic day celebrating our fabulous country. I really wanted to do Canada flags on my nails but maple leafs are seriously had draw. So taking inspiration from Pam over at Girly Bits and wore my heart on my nails.

Better Late The Never!

Hi folks,
Sorry for the lack of post. It's been a busy couple of months. Unfortunately, you're going to have to wait a little longer for new posts. While on vacation, my voltage converter failed to convert and my camera got fried. I thought about buying  a cheap replacement for the time being but  decided to save up for a decent camera instead. Anyone have any camera recommendations?

New Polish!!!!

Once again I just couldn't resist. Look what I picked up today!

Look What I've Been Up

Hi Guys,
I'm so sorry for the lack of posts lately! My best friend is getting married in 20 days (eeek) and we've had a ton of stuff to do. Once things settle down expect regular posts again. Until then check out all the fun wedding craft I've been doing!

New Polish!!!

Remember when I said I needed to track down full size bottles of Not Like the Movies and The One That Got Away ? Well look what I found!

Rescue Mani

Ever paint your nails a fantastic colour that you didn't want to remove even after it's started to chip? I have and thougth this would be the perfect chance to show my favourite way to save a chipped mani.

Ladybug Nail Art

It's 20 degrees out today  and it feels like spring is in the air. Feeling springy I thought I thought try ladybug nails. Once again  big thanks to Mary at  Swatch and Learn for the great tutorial.

New Polish!!!

Look what I finally got my hands on!!!

Classic Monday "Yule Love This Silver" Review

Yule Love This Silver was released as part of the 2001 (I believe, correct me if I'm wrong please!) OPI Holiday Collection.

Yule Love This Silver has a clear base and is jammed full of holo (!) micro glitter! In the bottle the colour can seem a little done (who doesn't have a bottle or two of silver glitter polish?) but once you see it in direct light.  Holy crap! It's awesome! Super sparkly. I could not stop staring at my nails!

New Polish

While getting my hair done, I saw this little gem on a shelf waiting for me to buy it.

Hibiscus Nail Art

With only 42 days (who's counting?) until vacation, I thought it would be fun to do some tropical nail art. I found a great tutorial for a hibiscus nail design over at thatleanne.
