We Are Young - Fun. feat. Janelle Monáe

This week I wanted to do something a bit easier on myself since I have a really long work week ahead. I decided to go with a jelly sandwich since I have actually NEVER done one before! I really can't believe that I haven't tried this sooner because I love the way it turned out.

First of all I started off with a coat of Seche Clear Base Coat. I then applied 2 coats of O.P.I. Too Hot Pink To Hold 'Em from their Texas Collection. It's a beautiful color and a great jelly polish. Next I added To The Glitter End! from Sephora by O.P.I. It's a fabulous gray metallic chunky glitter. I keep wondering if it is a dupe for the Deborah Lippmann I Love The Nightlife. I have been fan girling over that one since I saw it! Then, I added another coat of Too Hot Pink To Hold 'Em on top of the glitter. Fabulous! The glitter almost has a purple hue under the hot pink coat. I finished it up with a coat of Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat. Seche is definitely my favorite base & top coat hands down.

I seriously can not get enough of this song "We Are Young" by Fun. It is absoultely brilliant. You might recognize the song from the Chevy commercial that has been in rotation ever since the Super Bowl. If you haven't heard of them before be sure to check them out!

Heartless - A Day To Remember

BIRTHDAAYYY MANI #2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hey guys, its me again; Summer. Im sorry I havent posted in a couple of days.. Ive been sort of MIA. BUTTT!!!!! im back and with a pretty new mani! This is of course just a simple design (my specialty haha)

I used one of my pretty new polishes from my birthday prezzy.. its Finger Paints - Stunning Stilettos and a random neon orange from Sally Girl. I think it turned out cute - I LOVE neons with dull shades.. i know.. im weird.

AHHH in this picture you can see all of the imperfections, and i also should have used a top coat. but im sure you all can see that :p but for what its worth.. its still cute :)

OH! and a little update on my life, im almost moved. BLAH! But im actually happy right now, and i think that the decisions that have been made are truly for the best. OHHHH YEAAHH i also have like 4 or 5 concerts lined up for the next month. You should totalllly be JEALY!

-- Now a lot of you all know that Alexis and I met at a hanson concert.. We have both been fans since 1997 - the very beginning. A lot of people who are non fans.. dont understand why we would travel all over the place just to see -what they would say is- a washed up band from the 90's. well... a friend of ours has a blog.. and I think you should see why. This is what Holly wrote:

8 Reasons I Follow Hanson

And I will leave you with that!

Party Rock Anthem - LMFAO

ahh... this song. I love to hate it. It isnt so bad the first few times.. but after that... I just want to claw my eyes out. HA, but I chose it to title this post because my boyfriends little sister and her bestieeee totally did the dance basically all night last night. entertainnning to say the least lol

ON TO THE POLISH!!!

Im not Sure why I decided to do triangles.. but this is what happened. I did this at work.. so excuse the excess cuticle oil all over the place lol I super duper love caitlin by zoya. I mean just look at all that purpley gray goodness... I mean rarely do I ever just wear plain colors with no accent nail or design... but this color.. I just love. I really could have just worn it. 2 coats for full opacity... and look at the shine BEFORE a top coat of any kind... LOVE it.

I just used dove and caitlin from the zoya promo.. along with the smallest end of one of my dotting tools.... honestly I can make better designs with that than a nail art brush. I feel it gives me more control lol.... sooooo until next time...

xoxo Summer

Goodbye - Miley Cyrus

So i got a new shirt, its purple, with peacock feathers one it. YESSSS!!!!! anyways, i had to find a way to sort of dress it up for work. i decided to do a smokey eye (nothing too over the top) to go with the mani i gave my self yesterday.... all i did was apply an eye shadow primer - and covered my lid in a gray shadow, not metallic, which i prefer to use when doing a "night time" smokey eye. anyway, i then just blended in a matte black shadow from the outter edge of my lash... finished with urban decay liner, and maybeline falsies mascara... and VOILA!

ahhh, so ive been toying with the whole "matte/shiny" combo manicure idea for a while, i finally did it. i left some around the edges so its kind of messy.... and this is just a rough attempt. i think it could be amazzzeee...
