AN Monday: St Patrick's Day

   Hey guys, and a Happy St Patty's Day to you all! Though I didn't do any drinking in celebration today, I did join in on the green nails band wagon. I wore the gorgeous Emily De Molly Monet's Garden. It's a stunning green jelly polish filled with an assortment of green, purple, pink and blue glitters - it's so dense that all this took was 2 coats! 

NOTD: Belated Happy Valentine's Day ♥

   Hey guys! Today's post will be a quick one, just showing a little pink lovin' post Valentine's Day :D Hoping everyone spent the day with loved ones, and if not, spent the day loving yourselves, because that's important too! 

   For this year's V-day, I went down the pink path and used Ulta 3 Fruit Tingle - an amazing bright pink, that has jumped to the top of my pink favourites list - and Emily De Molly Super Vixen for the reverse gradient on top. The perfect combo for a day of love (;

NOTD: Pastel vs Neon

   Mornin' all! You should all know by now that I have quite a soft spot for neons, but occasionally, my love for for them is diverted to pastels. I just can't help myself, the colours look so pretty in their bottles! One such colour is a new found love: Essie Mint Candy Apple. I paired it with Ulta3 Lilac Bloom and Sinful Colors Black on Black to create this pastel floral design.

   Though I did like it, I felt a little underwhelmed... the colours looked a little washed out ): Also, it is almost Summer here in Australia, so I think I was just subconsciously craving for something brighter! So I pulled out Emily De Molly Flurocious, Australis Peek-a-boo and #Totesamaze and a few golden nail studs to create a much brighter floral mani, with glitter too!

   I like this much better :P but then again, I am a sucker for bright colours. Which do you prefer? Are you a pastel person, or a neon lover like me?

AN Monday: Blue or Green

   Hey y'all! :D So the theme for this month's AN Mondays, is Aussie Indie Month - showing our love for all the Aussie indie brands that support our polish addiction :P My Indie collection is only at about 30 bottles and only half are Aussie, but I'll try and make do with what I have! First up is "Blue or Green".

   For someone who's a total purple junky, surprisingly, almost half my Aussie indie collection is blue! So I threw them all on the table and picked one at random :P 

   This gorgeous little number is Emily De Molly When Planets Collide. This is 2 coats layered over 1 coat of Revlon Royal. Though technically, from what I can see, it's actually a black jelly base, but it's so filled with blue glitter I classified it as blue :P !

   I also tried for some nail art using BYS Diamond Glitter Opal, Max Factor Royal Blue and some striping tape.

   Aaaaaand, I also have the last two weeks' AN Monday combined into one mani: Graveyard/ Your Choice, to finish off the October Halloween Month. Fingers crossed this month I'm on time with all my AN Mondays! :D

Let's Play ...catch up.

#totesamaze

   Hello my lovelies! How have you all been? *beaming smile*

   At the end of my last post, I promised you all sweet lookin' tasties on my fingertips ...and so here was the end result:

  Chocolate drips. These remind me of cupcakes. Or ice cream. And donuts. Oh and pop tarts. Damn. *stomach rumbles*

   Anyways... YAY for more nail art! 

   I'll let you guys in on a little secret ...I hate the colour pink with a passion. But at the moment, it's all I seem to want to have! It's driving me nuts!

   I saw this Australis shade #totesamaze (the polish bottle I'm holding in the picture above) at Kmart the other day and KNEW I had to have it, and that I HAD to do a mani based around it. 

   SO for the ring finger and pinky, I started with a sponge mani using Beauty Attitude pastels Mint Candy and Grape Smoothie and combined it with the Australis hot pink polish. Then I added the white tribal print on top with just regular white polish. To add a little sparkle, I topped it all off with Bloom Aspen before sealing it in with top coat.

   For the index and middle finger, I used 3 coats of Australis #totesamaze (what a name eh?), added a row of 2mm square studs and painted one half of the nail with Aspen to tie it all together.

   For anyone who's interested in a close up of what's on my thumbnail, it just so happened to creep into one of the photos :P Just a regular white to pink ombre topped with Aspen.

   In more news ...NAIL MAIL!

   My Emily De Molly's came in today! Guess which will be the first I dip my nails into :P
