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 …

Remember how I was saying I wanted to see how Forget Me Not by Catrice would look stamped and shattered and with topcoats etc.  Well, I couldn’t stop myself! Here is that fabulous color on its own… *Sigh*  Seriously, does it get better?  I guess it does, if you don’t totally love purple, but then you are crazy and your …

It’s no big secret that I love purple, I’m pretty sure I’ve thrown that out there a few times already.  So when I bought this for a swap partner and found out she already had it on the way in another swap, it really wasn’t a task for me to slip it into my own stash and give it some …

I’m a bit behind on updating my entries for PAA’S Monday Nail Art Challenge, not that I haven’t been doing them, I have… I’ve just gotten behind on my photo editing.  I had to replace my laptop recently and one of the main problems with my old one was that I couldn’t edit more than one or two photos before …

The other day I wanted to try something cool with some Lego stickers my husband had.  I was going to paint my nails white and add the stickers to the nail and put a topcoat over, it was all very cool in my head.  It didn’t work out quite as I had hoped… The stickers were a little too thick, …

A while back I saw some Cherry Blossom Nail art by Kayla Shevonne, and I loved it!  I may have pestered her a bit asking for a tutorial and last week she totally came through!  She made it look so easy, but she is an evil trickster! I tried twice and mine didn’t look nearly as good as hers. I’m …

The weather here in the Netherlands has been rather dreary for the last while, and last week my husband deserted me for a few days in London… so it wasn’t hard to find motivation for my latest manicure. My rainy day manicure… perfect for the dark and depressing weather we’ve had over the last while, and suiting to my mood …

The other day I saw this post over on Colores de Carol about a newspaper manicure. I kept that tab open for days because I wanted to do it and knew if I closed the window I’d forget! I had just gotten the same polish she used (Catrice Snow Motion) not that long ago so I knew I had everything …

Kruidvat had a great sale on last weekend, 50% off all makeup. Omg!  I got over 20 bottles of polish for less than 20 euro, I was in heaven!  All this sunny weather and trees blossoming made me want to do something with more spring colors, since I often tend to stick to darker colors.  I wanted to do something …

It’s Queen’s Day in the Netherlands today!  The sun is shining and I’m sure there are a lot of people dressed in orange partying it up all over the country.  So of course a Queen’s Day Manicure is in order! You are probably wondering why the Dutch flag looks upside down but I figured it was best to have it …
