Pretty and Polished - Party Girl

Hi everyone! Big apologies from me for disappearing the last few days. I am so, so sick, and so tired, and do not have the time or energy to be posting. It makes me feel like crap for missing so many days! I'm sorry.

I've been trying to get in touch with my specialist for over a week now to no avail, and I'm getting so frustrated! As some of you may know, I suffer from Crohn's disease, so I am a seriously unhappy camper right now. Ugh! Sorry for whining!

I figured I should let you all know that I am alive with a quick post!
And I've got a cute polish to share.


Pretty and Polished - Party Girl
This is an older polish from the lovely Chelsea at Pretty and Polished. I am happy to say that Chelsea is a friend of mine and it makes her polishes that much more special because I've seen her entire journey to Etsy-stardom! Hahaha.

This polish is no longer available but I'm showing it anyway because it's darn cute!


Multicolored holo bar glitter. I think the cute colors of the glitter allow it to not look "hairy" like some bar glitters do. Heh.
This is one coat of PG over OPI - Pedal Faster Suzi.

Without fail, this polish always makes me start singing this song:


I can't stop partyin' partyin'...

Okay, that's all I've got. Hopefully I'll find more time for posts in the next little while. Adios!

geometric blues

I am not a happy camper today. I have to go to the dentist in an hour to have a cavity filled. UGH!

I'll try to distract myself by writing this post.


Here's another mani I did with a polish from the China Glaze Summer Neons. Essentially I can't stop using them.


This lovely blue is China Glaze - Splish Splash.
I used one of my new Bundle Monster plates to add this funky geometric pattern! The plate is BM-322 and I stamped with Konad Special White stamping polish.
(I originally tried to stamp in yellow but it was a fail and you can see some of the failed yellow shining through the white on my pinky! Haha.)


A neon+stamping mani is really simple and quick to do because of the fast drying times!
And as always, very eye-catching.

If only my mani could be eye-catching enough that my dentist would forget about my cavity and I would never have to get it filled... AH!
I hate the freakin' dentist. I hope she doesn't hurt me. :(
Wah wah wahhhhhhhh

glitter sandwich me, already!

Good evening everyone!

Today I have a layering post that almost doesn't look like layering. It kinda looks like a polish all on its own! An indie polish, even.
I'll start with the final product and work backwards to show you how it was done.


Can you guess what polishes came together to create this look? I had some polish friends on Facebook try to guess, and it took a while before anyone figured it out!


It's really an easy glitter sandwich... With a super unique look. I dig it!


It started with two coats of China Glaze - Under The Boardwalk.


I then added 2 coats of the ultra-blingy OPI - Crown Me Already!


Add another very thin coat of Under The Boardwalk and this is what you get.
All the tiny glitter in the sandwich looks really cool and speckley, and the big pieces are cool of course, although I should have tried to get more on my nails.

Well, what are you waiting for? Glitter sandwich yourself, already!
