Good Morning! I was feeling spring-ish this morning and needed some pastels to get my mind off the bone chilling weather outside! Right now its about 10degrees, I really... really cant wait for summertime! I'm trying to figure out which OPI color is on the ring finger, my sticker has fallen off! :(

Transdesign.com Goodies!

Good morning nail polish-aholics! :) This Saturday evening my girlfriends and I are attending a "Get Lucky Luau" and the first thing that came to mind was "TROPICAL KONAD!" thats when you know your addicted, right? You plan your nails for an even before your outfit haha. I began with some research on google and decided the best base color would be China Glaze - Flip Flop Fantasy, but there was only one problem, I didn't own it! So I started browsing over at www.transdesign.com and decided it was silly to only get one color so I got 11, yet again, addicted!

L-R: Magic Attraction, Electronica, Object Of Envy, Wild At Heart, Revvolution

L-R: Cowgirl Up, Four Leaf Clover, Cherish, Pelican Gray, Flip Flop Fantasy, Stella

When I got my order I thought I had made a mistake and ordered (2) Stella's only to realize that Cowgirl Up & Stella look alike at a quick glance but once you compare them side to side they are a little different. I was very impressed with the color selection at Trans Design and the super fast shipping, I live in a small SMALL small, did I say SMALL town? We recently got a Sally's about a 2 months ago but the selection sucks and its horribly overpriced (compared to what I pay online) and they never have any of the new "collections" in! I'll be doing my "tropical manicure" tomorrow so keep your eyes out for something bright! :)

Addicted to MAC Cosmetics.

Just thought i'd share my eyeshadow creation with everyone, just a simple neutral toned look that I wear to work often, and super easy too!

Sassy Snow Day.

Looks like we have about 12 inches of snow coming, one whole foot of SNOW! So to keep things positive I took a little twist with the colors, thanks Callyn for helping pick them out! :)

Purple & Gold Roses.

Finally another konad-icure! I was all out of acetone (nightmare!) and had to wait until my day off, yesterday, to stock up. We have had SO much snow here lately, 2 days ago we got 4 inches and today were supposed to get 7 inches, its a Winter Wonderland out there!

Winter Wonderland

So to liven my spirits I decided to do something other than a manicure with MORE snowflakes, I decided on China Glaze - VIII as a base coat and stamped with Love My Nails - Gold Dust 1585 (Which stamps REALLY well by the way!) The VIII is SUCH a dark purple that it almost looks black, especially since we have NO sunlight here! :( I aboslutely love using the China Glaze - Strong Adhesion Base Coat, my nail polish will stay on for 3x longer than it ever has! Even though im constantly changing it anyways! I can't stand chipped nail polish. www.wowsocool.com also has a promotion going on for $6.99 off an order & as always free shipping over $20, so I tool advantage and ordered some new image plates, Check out there twitter http://twitter.com/konadwowsocool for the coupon code! I was SO impressed that I got an instant confirmation email and my plates were actually shipped out the SAME DAY that I ordered them, now THAT'S service :)

Thanks Zoya! :)

I was SO excited to find out the Zoya promotion for 3 FREE fullsized nail polishes on facebook, all you have to pay is $6.95 for shipping! I spent a while deciding on which colors to choose, I didn't own any Zoya polishes but had previously tried them at a local day spa, I love how they have TONS of colors, I can see the begining of a beautiful addiction.

Edyta, Savita & Nova

 These 3 were my final decisions! Such beautiful colors and Savita is actually a Matte Velvet Polish! Which 3 colors did you get in the Zoya promotion?

365 Days Of Nail Art.

While enjoying my morning coffee and perusing the world wide web I decided to check out 365 Days Of Nail Art (a new obsession of mine!) and SURPRISE, I was featured today with my China Glaze - For Audrey nails!

As you can tell I couldn't decide what to do on my nails so I just did a little bit of everything, It was my 2nd or 3rd mani after I had gotten my Konad so I went a little crazy! Whats your favorite plate?

Snowed In Nails.

When I woke up this morning there was a white blanket of the fluffy stuff covering everything outside, So much that I didn't have to go to work! So since I was stuck inside the house all day I decided to do a "snow-y day manicure"

I started off by filing, buffing, and painting the basecoat on (white with the exception of the ring finger) I used Pure Ice "Superstar" and Orly "Blue Collar" waited for that to dry and then stamped some snowflakes on with my Konad plate M59. I also added a clear rhinestone on the ring finger applied with clear nail polish and tweezers.
