Another photo I took ages ago (in February, I think) and just never got around to doing anything with. I don’t remember how this was to apply but I know I liked wearing it.  I like the name even more, Hip Queens Wear Blue Jeans, it’s cute! I tend to quite like dark polish so this suited me well.  It’s …

When I heard that OPI was releasing a Holland Collection, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it.  Of course, this left me with the dilemma on whether I was going to try to swap someone in the states for them or dish out the ridiculous prices you pay for them here IN HOLLAND (we should get a discount …

The PAA Monday Nail Art Challenge for this week was Blue, and I did actually have these done before Monday but I wasn’t feeling up to taking pics.  Thankfully the mani has held up quite well so I was still able to get some today, even if there is a fair bit of regrowth there.  You can ignore it.  The …

… want to go wee wee wee wee alllll the way back to the south of France! I don’t know what it’s like where all of you are at the moment, but here in the Netherlands the weather has been totally dreary all summer long.  If it weren’t for our holiday in the south of France in early July, my …

After seeing people talking about it everywhere, I really wanted to try the dry marble method on my nails.  If you aren’t familiar with how it works, here’s a tutorial. Looks easy, right?  Omg, it’s so not!!  Well, it is… but it isn’t.  What I mean is, it wasn’t as easy as I thought it was going to be, and …

After slowly working through my polishes from my big swap I finally tried Sinful Colors Green Ocean.  I  used a base layer of Essence Multi Dimension XXL Shine Fatal and one good coat of the Green Ocean over top. My first impression?  “OoooOOoooOOoh!”.  Being me, I just love everything glitter, flakie, etc so it goes without saying that I just …

Just after I got back from my holiday I got nail mail from my friend Kati. We had planned to swap some polish the next time we met up, but with both our holidays our paths never seemed to cross.  The sneaky devil stuck my polish in an envelope and mailed it!  I was so excited to get this unexpected …

I’m really milking this giveaway win, aren’t I?! I loved these polishes so much I wanted to try to do something fun that included all three. Cute, huh?  I just love it! I really like dotting, I can imagine it would be even more fun with the proper dotting tools, rather than my homemade jobbies. I was going to take …

Here are some swatches of the polish I won from Traci’s giveaway. In case you missed it, these are the polishes I won. Pretty hot, right?! This is two coats of It’s Up To Blue. I really like this color a lot!  I’m so weird about blues at the moment though after getting serious staining (even with a base coat) …

I won my first giveaway! Sweeeeet! I was one of three winners in Traci’s 200 Follower Giveaway!  Today a received Orly’s It’s Up To Blue, Oh Cabana Boy, and Shine.  I love the bottles, with the rubbery handles… I need to think of something cool to do using the three colors together. To be honest, after filling out so many …

After testing out my new Miss Cop glitter that I bought at the market, I wanted to see what it looked like on a black base.  As I was getting everything out I realized I had other new glitters that I haven’t tried yet, and some I’d like to compare.  That’s when it hit me… glitter skittle!!  Well, nine glitter …
