Inward Tide - Green River Ordinance

Well, I do believe I have set a record for the longest amount of time ive gone between posts. SORRY! Ive been busy living the rock star life style. Haha literally so many concerts.

Anyway, this mani is from a trip I took to Iowa to see train, Hanson, Adam Lambert, Matt Kearney, neon trees, greenriver ordinance, and Ryan star. It was one of the best trips I have ever taken and wouldn't trade the experience for anything.

The polishes that I used were Zoya Pippa and 2 mislabeled Essie polishes that I picked up from Ross for 1/2price! I used a dotting tool to make 2 diagonal lines of dots. super cute, super easy.

Promise ill start catching up with you guys more often. If you want to check out our crazy concert experiences you can subscribe to our YouTube channel! CLICKKKKKK

I'll Find Another You - John Mayer

Gah, sometimes.. life just throws you curveballs... ones you would NEVER expect. Definitely going through something recently.. and my nails.. are taking the brunt of it. i mean... look how short i filed them down! EEEEEK!!!!!!!

I just wanted to so something simple.. and this is about as simple as it gets. i used zoya in savita and phoebe. i really do like the color combo.. i think i could have done something way cooler with these two polishes but.. like i said.. i have been having a rough couple weeks.
This was taken before i did any clean up.... and look at my cuticles! they are basically yelling at me! what is wrong with me.... im not sure this damage is irreversible! hahahah
dont judge all the mess! next post will be better!!! swear. but i DO love these colors together.. dont youuu???
gah.. look at all that matte glory in this picture. is it weird to say that zoya mattes are almost.. not matte enough for me?? that sounds weird. but they still have a sheen to them that makes me want to apply some matte about you over top of them! haha - i know, im weird, but you love me.

Here Comes The Sun - The Beatles

Just a quick post before I leave today! Ive been so busy at my new position that I dont have much time to do my nails... blahhhhhh. BUTTT it is almost my birthday (16 days and counting) and I am sure I will get tonsssss of new polishes for you guys to see.

I started out by painting all of my nails yellow with Pippa.. and then used my speedy top coat to hurry along the process..
After that polish was dry.. I used Robyn to create a half moon on my nail and then to paint my entire ring finger....
FINALLLLLLLYYY after that was dry.. I added a few dots with my handy dandy dotting tool.

............................. Sealed it with my speedy top coat.. and VOILA. a simple summer mani... I thought it screammmeeddd summer time. Y'all like it???? Hope so!

FROM THE VAULLLTTTTT:

As you can see.. this is defffff a post from when i first started doing nail art. I think i had actually just gotten my dotting tool.. and thought i was sooo rad with it haha.

I used Essie - Cute As a Button... in the bottle it looks pink.. but this picture makes it look very orangey.. the dots are midnight snowfall by nicole by opi and the gold dots are just a randooo gold :)

Also, look at those acrylics.. i think this is the first time i had ever tried them.. and u can DEFFF tell.. thank god im better at them now. (i dont wear them tho, fyi) Here is cute As a Button on its own... its a cute color.. maybe i should bust this out before summers end :) BTW im STILLL awaiting my zoya package.. oh, did yall take advantage of the .99c sinful colors? i TOTALLLLY did. Ill show u in my August haul post :)

You Lie - The Band Perry (my nails are famous! sorta)

HIIII Y'ALLLL!!! It's me again, Summer.

Today was a blah day for me.. but something exciting DID happen. THE BAND PERRY tweeted a picture of my nails!!! Highlight of my day! I really do love their music ANNNND they are the biggest success story to come from my hometown of Greeneville, TN.

This is the picture that they tweeted!!!

I have been seeing ALOT of subtle stamping.. so I thought it might be fun to try subtle dotting...

This really is one of the most simple mani's that anyone could do.. but its really cute...dontcha think?
I got this color on sale at sally's for a dollar at their sidewalk sale and im actually really glad i did.. This is everything that I used. super simple. The purple finger paints is alot darker than this picture shows.. its a DEEEEEP purple.. but completely opaque in one coat.

Earlier in the day I thought about doing an ombre but didn't really want to put in the effort of mixing the colors.. I now. Lazy. but still... So I just did a comparison of the purples that I had at work. The polish is in front of the corresponding nail. Surprisingly.. I think my favorite is the Jolly Rancher random scented purple polish.. it was a little hard to remove but it was REALLLLY pretty in person.
