Sugar House Lane Sprinkles

Hello Tuesday!!



I am here to share with you all a new nail polish that I bought today after work, because I have been wanting a new one but nothing has really captured my attention to make me want to buy something new. Then boom, while on break my coworker shows me photos on her phone of these new polishes she bought yesterday and I was automatic omg I want! I already knew what color I wanted but I tried all the colors to see what they looked like to be sure. I like Sugar House Lane by Nails Inc. (Sprinkle Collection) it is just the perfect color that can go with anything in my opinion. I only put one coat on my nails and it went on so smooth for me. I really love nails inc., I think I like it more than OPI a bit. I don't know what it is about there nail polishes, but the ones I do have so far in my collection I haven't had anything bad yet to say about them with the very few colors I have from that brand. The other ones were meh, okay but not my cup of tea or make me go I have to have them but they are cool colors also. I know this has probably been out in the U.K. already long time ago and the States has had it for a bit I think but it just arrived here in Canada. There is 3 other sprinkle colors to choose from for those who are curious. This is all I have to mention for today, have a lovely day!

when life hits rock bottom... add some color

Good Morning!

So what to talk about today? I have had this idea floating on my mind for a while now to do a post on all the nail polish colors I have and what really a great time to do this. It's sunny and all, plus who doesn't love nail polish especially in summer. There is so many designs, mixes etc you can do with nail polish it's so fun to decorate your nails up every now and again. I am really feeling the coral, light blue and tropical pink at the moment! I will go through what the name and brand of each color polish is in case you want to purchase it yourself! I hope you enjoy this post and have a lovely day! =)

Slanted Stripe Colored Nails

Good Late Evening Lovelies,

So I am back with another post and yes it's another nail design post. I had done this back either in September or October one of the two but I choose the slanted strip design because I was bored. I was bored with doing the cheetah/leopard look but changing the colors and so I decided upon this look because it was different and something I had never done to my nails yet. People at work liked it and I liked it too. I did only do that design the one time but I'll possibly try it again in the near future with different background colors. I just thought I would do this post and to show something different than what I have shown you guys with past nail designs and colors. I hope this design is something you are wanting to try and hopefully it's fun along with different!

Magnetic Polish by nails inc. LONDON


Hello Hello!!

I have a fun post about another new nail polish I got today! Yes, I finally managed to get out and purchase it since I had to stop to get something at sephora anyway. I got nails inc. LONDON new magnetic polish in house of parliament which is a dark purple but so nicee! The polish went on so easily, smooth and dries fast unlike other polishes that I have from other brands. This is my first ever nails inc. London polish purchase ever and I would purchase normal colors if I could find them somewhere.

- First step is to put on a base coat, which helps the polish to go on smoothly I guess also!
- Second paint one coat of the nails inc. london polish on all the nails.
- Third is to paint another coat, however one nail at a time because you can't let the polish dry right away, you must put the magnetic top right after you paint the second coat.
- Lastly the design will come on it's own with the help of the magnetic!
- A top coat after that so it looks nice and shiny! :D I used OPI top coat for those wondering!

I took pictures of my nails before the design happens to show what the nail color looks like and after to show the what the design appears like.

I hope you enjoyed this post because I definitely like this polish and I hope they come out with more colors beside the purple and grey. I like how the polish dries so fast unlike opi which I find takes forever to dry for me. Check out your local Sephora if you want this polish or online at sephora if you don't have a local store in your area. I will definitely being using this polish a lot as until the end of this year and of course in the new year as well!

Bright Neon Pink Lep Nails!

Hello Lovelies!

I wanted to post this nail polish design I had done a while back but never got around to posting it, so I thought I would do that now! I know this was probably done way back in the summer time but I really love the colors and the look. I think this is a fun design to try on your nails for sure. The nail polish colors I used for this look were..

1. OPI Elephantastic Pink
2. OPI Do You Lilac It
3. L.A. Colors Art Deco in Black
4. OPI Top Coat

I know that it is winter now but you can still make it fun by using more netural colors for winter if you don't want that bright pop of color via my other nail color look thats similar but not bright as polish colors. Hope you enjoyed!

GETTIN MISS PIGGY WITH IT, NA NA NA NA!


Hello Hello Lovelies!!


So I am back as I said I would be with another post about the nail polish I got from 'The Muppets' Collection called 'GETTIN MISS PIGGY WITH IT'. I had previously mentioned the nail polish in a post before this one. I guess I have heard people complain that this nail polish is a waste of money and doesn't go on and how they had to put on so many coats. I figured out pretty fast after trying the normal stroking of painting your nails is not going to flow with this type of nail polish. I just started to dab it on my nails and it was going on; I didn't have to use the stroke method to put on a million coats. I know if I would have done it that way I would have been doing my nails for a really really really long time. From my personal experience I didn't find a problem with putting on this nail polish with the techinque that I used. I love the red with the sparkle of silver mixed in the polish. I have not tried any of the other colors from this collection and don't think I will be because I just wanted the one color from this collection. The other color from this collection I liked is the rainbow one which I thought looked pretty nice!





As for getting this nail polish removed from my nails as the nail color starts to chip isn't as easy as your regular nail polish colors. I tried nail polish remover and it wasn't coming off, so I had to scrape it off because it was starting to look ugly with it chipping. Also, I wanted to try a new nail polish out that I bought. My con about this nail polish is getting it off, so I don't think I will be wearing this nail polish often at all.

I've been everywhere, man Looking for someone Where have you been, all my life


Good Evening Lovelies!!

So today was not a snowy blizzard and freezing, yaay! It was still chilly out but at least no snow was falling. So today I got some things after work because I had to wait for my photos to developed, so I was looking around and got some stuff. I was particularly looking for boots to wear especially for winter. I was trying to avoid at all costs not to get some and just wear my runners like I have in the past couple of years; however that is not going to fly this year with this weather. Also because I really need to get something for winter to protect my feet and from getting sick so easily. Just take better, proper care of myself. I was looking at some look-a-like uggs but I just don't see myself in them, I feel like they look ugly on me. I think also it may just take getting use to, who knows... shrug! Any who I found some cute booties at PINK and I just had to get them but I know they are different from uggs, yet still have fur inside and are versatile in how you want to wear them. I took many photos to show the different views as well the different way it could be worn. These booties come in black with cheetah fur and grey cheetah print outside with I believe black fur. The greys are not your only option for those of you that want these and are worried about color choices. Personally I think the grey ones look the best because the other two colors make them look like house slippers but that's personally my opinion and everyone is entitled to their own opinion.








Another item I got tonight was a nail polish from OPI. I was dying for a new nail polish more so a sparkly one in particular to be honest. The Muppet's collection has sparkly colors, so I ended up going with the Muppet's collection. I got the Red color in that collection because I just thought it would be fun, christmas-y. I also don't have a red nail polish and that just seemed like a perfect match to go with. Just to let everyone know the name of the polish is called 'GETTIN' MISS PIGGY WITH IT' Once I do my nails in this color I will do a blog post to show up close what it looks like on nails along with my personal testimony.


I had gotten a hoodie from PINK a while ago but I had to exchange it tonight because the one I had picked up was damaged. I got the same one to replace the damaged one but luckily my size was there or else that would have been a total loss because I really love the color. It's a pretty purple which I never really come across a purple like that really ever. The pictures may not justify the color to it's true self.



I found some interesting fruit snacks when at walmart not too long ago and they are Fruit Loops fruit snacks and supposedly a limited edition. Anyways, I hope they're not a limited edition because I love them! I know such a kid type of thing to eat but I love them, so that's all that matters. =)


I also got 2 candles but I will just wait to do a post about the two candles I purchased for tomorrow because I have other candles I have gotten a while ago and have yet to mention about them on my blog. So be on the look out for that post, hopefully tomorrow or if not Sunday perhaps! =)

Other then the above things I hope you enjoyed this post and yaaay another post in a row, wooot! I hope it's not overwhelming but exciting since it's a new post and I haven't done posts regularly in a while or lately. Let's hope this winning streak lasts and I continue to post more regularly! Have a great night. =)

Cheetah/Leopard Print Nails!


Good Late Evening Lovelies! leopard

So I was just browsing on the internet and listen to some music and wanted to do a post about my nails I had just done the other day. I wanted to do a post after I had done the nails but I was like no but at the same time yes! I finally managed to do a post to show you what I had done to them. And I did do them myself! Haha, I know some people saw my nails and thought they were the stick on ones but nope and they aren't perfect in my eyes. On my one nail it's a little smudged but I completely happy with them! I can't wait to change my nails up and try a different design! I hope you enjoy because I did enjoy doing my nails that day. The nail polishes that I used were all OPI in a
a) base coat
b) Nude is called : Barefoot in Barcelona
c) Minty Green is : Mermaid Tears
However, for the black I used Art Deco in black because the brush is really thin to do the design or designs in general. I hope you have a wonderful rest of the night and have a wonderful day tomorrow! :D

Mermaid's Tears



Hello Beautiful Lovelies!
I am sorry for the lack of updates just seems like forever and I am sorry for that along with not posting up things that I need to on time. I've just been so busy with work and not having energy to do things but I finally managed today to get a post up! As soon I got into my room I started organizing and cleaning, so I was like I have to get a post up today right now!
So I saw the new OPI Pirates of the Carribean nail collection in the new MAY edition of ELLE magazine. I have been looking for a nice summer green and I just couldn't find one I liked until yesterday. So I stopped after work as I was on my way out and purchased the Mermaid's Tears polish which I really love the color.

I will be back later tonight or tomorrow for another post of some other put off stuff I haven't posted up but needed to.
See you soon!

new nail colors to go along with the coming of spring!




Hello Beautiful Lovelies!

Two weeks ago I got some new nail polishes because I really wanted a new color to add to my already nail polish collection. I just didn't want a new nail color to have a new nail color; I wanted a new nail color for spring and because I like color! I like having the bright colors, especially when there is still snow outside that I am hoping and waiting to melt soon! I managed to purchase 3 nail polishes but technically one is just a top coat which I desperately needed since forever! Anywho.. the 3 polishes I got are from OPI are: Do you liliac me?[3rd], Top Coat[middle] and Barefoot in Barcelona![1st] [I love that name for the polish] <3

OPI > DIM SUM PLUM!



Dim Sum Plum, the color is a very gorgeous deep plum. I have woren it and I like it! I also purchased Modern-girl which I have yet to try out. Modern-girl is an orange color which I thought would be fun for the summer, however that wasn't the orange color I was looking for. But when I tried it on it my mom liked it and also it was buy two OPI get one free so I got those two colors and let my mom get a color since the other colors I was interested in were not at the store. I definitely recommend trying out the Dim Sum Plum for a nail color!

Have a wonderful night! =)

OPI



So I went to check out some nail polishes yesterday (march.10.10) and was very curious in 'you don't know jacques' & 'pearl of wisdom'. However, for me those colors are nice but not for me, not with my skin tone it just doesn't suit me. I definitely would recommend 'you don't know jacques' its such a pretty color if it was for others who like a chaocoal grey. I did find a nail polish to my liking and its subtle not to flashy and I like that. I like bright colors however, some colors just don't work for me. Anyway I ended up purchasing 'significant other'.
