Happy Valentine's Day - Collection Post!

Happy Valentine's Day! We hope you all had a lovely day. As promised, here is the collection post. Thank you so much to every person who sent in their pictures. Enjoy looking through the pictures and be sure to check out their blogs! You all are extremely talented. 

From now on, we'll start off the collection post with our number one favorite. We loved all of the manis...it was a close call...but we decided on Joy as the number one for this post :) Great job, Joy! Light, flawless and girly color on this mani that seems to represent Valentine's Day in its entirety. 


Enjoy the rest of the pictures after the cut :)

Turn Me On - David Guetta feat. Nicki Minaj

Hello everyone! Last week I did a mani for the sweet side of Valentine's Day. Today's mani is the sexy side!



I started out with a beautiful color from one of the sets Ulta put out recently called Paint The Town. It is a darker red color that I really loved. I almost didnt want to paint over it because it was fierce on it's on! On my ring finger I used WnW Black Creme. I then free handed the red lips. I was going for the look of fish nets on my pointer finger. I used a Bundle Monster plate for the design. Then I used China Glazes Ruby Pumps for the other fingers.




Red just screams sexy right!?

I thought I would also include a picture of my Valentine since it is almost here.


This is Jax asleep in my lap. He is a Scottish Terrier. I fell in love the minute I saw him. I think I have the cutest Valentine ever! ;-)

Pumpkin Soup - Kate Nash

Hi everyone! I'm so excited to be sharing my nail polish addiction with all of you! I have been an avid nail blog reader for months now. I must admit that reading this wonderful blog & seeing all of the amazing things that Summer and Alexis come up with is how I got the nail polish bug! They are two very talented ladies! I am so honored that they asked me to contribute.

Since it is February & Valentine's is right around the corner, I thought I would do something centered around that theme for this week and next week.

This week's theme is Sweet Hearts. I got the inspiration from those heart shaped candy with the messages that taste like chalky antacids! (The SweetTart kind are my favorite.) I wanted to mix it up and do something different on each nail. I thought my hearts & poka dots came out pretty good. I have to say that it was my first time doing lines free handed & they got a little wobbly. Practice makes perfect though! I also, of course, had to have some glitter!



I used quite a few different polishes for this mani. I recently bought 3 colors from China Glaze's Electropop Collection: Gothic Lolita, Sweet Hook, & Dance Baby. I used 2 Orly colors: Basket Case & White Out. Then 2 colors by Essie: Marshmallow & Turquoise & Caicos. Finally the glitter one is from the Katy Perry O.P.I. Collection: Teenage Dream.




I realize that my post title does not sound like a song for Valentine's but if you listen to it, you'll hear that it has nothing to do with pumpkins or soup. :)

P.S. Be sure to keep reading all February! Lots of great posts coming next week from Alexis and Summer!
