My 15 Favorite Nail Art Manis of 2014!

Nothing to Disclose

Happy New Year's Eve, again! And Happy New Year to those of you who are already in 2015! I wanted to do my favorite polish posts but I knew I would not be able to decide and post today, so I decided to choose my favorite nail art manis from this year since I have been doing more nail art this year than ever before.

Oh Look, a Post! I'm Back!

Nothing to Disclose

Happy New Year's Eve! Right now I have a quick post to show you a few manis I've done the last couple of weeks and to say that I have missed you guys! I did not plan on taking an almost two week blog vacation. Life got busy and I haven't been feeling well and it all just kind of ended up taking away my blogging time. But I'm back now and, while still busy, I should be back to a more regular posting schedule. I also have some exciting things coming up in January that I'm excited to share with you guys! But that will all come in due time. 

Right now I just want to show you guys a couple of manis that I did during the last couple of weeks. First up, my Christmas mani. I did this about 3 days before Christmas and didn't intend on wearing it as long as I did but I didn't have time to change it. Luckily, I really enjoyed it!



For this I just did (another!) spray marble, along with some freehand candy cane lines on my accent nail. I am so in love with spray marbles! They are fun and easy and fast - and I love the effect they give. My base for this was Elevation Polish Weddell Sea, which is pretty much my go-to base now and I have used over half a bottle of already. The design was done with Elevation Polish Alpine Heights and Illamasqua Throb. Sorry about the shrinkage, it wasn't nearly as visible in person. I have such a love/hate relationship with top coat lately. LOL

Two more manis after the jump!

Ornamental Glow

Nothing to Disclose

Happy Thursday! It's hard to believe it's only one week until Christmas! I am more behind this year than I have ever been. I will be finishing up my shopping this weekend, and there are still a few decorations I haven't put up yet! I am usually pretty early and on top of everything so it's driving me crazy to feel like I'm behind. But it will all get done, right?! 

And because I've been so busy, I haven't had much time for blogging or nail art, which makes me sad. I have so many ideas floating around in my head but haven't had time to sit down and execute them. BUT, I did have a little bit of time (late on Saturday night) to try a radial gradient. Well, try again. This was my 3rd attempt at a radial gradient and the first one I've been happy with!
