More Flowers...I Promise This is it!!


I know, you're thinking, "more flowers? What is up with this girl?"  My amazing husband came home last night with a few of the new Wet and Wild Saved By the Bell Collection polishes. It was pretty late in the night and I didn't want to spend a lot of time on nail art, but I didn't want to do just plain old nails. (What fun is that?)


Isn't this teal just gorgeous?




Sorry for the tip wear, this girl works hard for the money.







This pretty teal color is called, very appropriately Chick Magnet Zack. I used to love me some Zack Morris! He was my crush along with Donnie Wahlberg of NKOTB.  He was soooo hot, ooh baby...but back to the topic at hand. This color is really pretty, very vibrant and easily a one coater. I used 2 as I always do. It was a little thick but it is such a pretty color, it didn't really bother me.  The center dots are done with Wet n Wild Straight A Jessie. This also is a really pretty and fun color. A traditional traffic cone-need my sunglasses-neon orange! 


Here's a pic of the new turtle ring my kids got for me, isn't it adorable?




Goes perfectly with my nails!


   Check out my flower tutorial if you need help creating these little sweeties.



All in all the Wet n Wild Saved by the Bell Collection is everything I thought it would be.They are bright, super fun summer neons.  Now I don't have the full collection,( I am missing the purple and pink) but what I do have I love. Swatches and nail art will be coming very soon, hint hint. They are sooo hard to find in my area of PA but I am not giving up!! I will leave no rock unturned. :)


If you see these new WnW polishes in your area, pick them up!! They are limited edition. They are very inexpensive and good quality for the price! Not to mention, the colors are pretty awesome. Here's a quick little pic I took at my nail table last night of my newest additions to the family.



Not the greatest pic but you can at least get an idea of the colors. The green is awesome!!



I'm very excited for you guys to see my post tomorrow. It is going to be really fun and NOT flowers! Be sure to check it out!


Happy Polishing friends!!

Flower Nail Art

Hi loves, how is everyone today? I am looking forward to another day of swatching and hopefully some new nail art.

So when I was shopping the other day I told you guys I got some new backgrounds for my photographs. As soon as I saw this one I said to myself, "I could do that on my nails". And indeed I did, and it turned out pretty sweet. So first... here is my inspiration...



How cute is that, right? I love brown and blue together. So here's the finished product....


The good ol' upside down hand.


I'm working on some new poses for my hand, I'm getting tired of the same old same old. This one looks a little freaky but work with me people. For this baby I used Essie Mink Muffs, Nicole My Lifesaver, China Glaze White on White, and Essie Sand Tropez. 

For the flowers I just used a small dotter and made 5 dots in almost a circle form. They were a little more "jaggy" (my word of the day) to make the petals. This was so easy to do.  Here's one more pic that shows off how cute they look together. I just love when a design turns out better than you thought it would. Hope you guys like it as much as I do. Enjoy your (hopefully) lazy Sunday.
