Colors by Llarowe: Winter Jellies and Crellies - Swatches and Review




Good morning! It's a brand new week and I am kicking it off with some jellies and crellies from Colors by Llarowe.  These were released for winter 2015 and are all currently in stock (though one of them is currently in the clearance section). They are gorgeous and I can't wait to show them to you!

Native War Paints: Red Butler - Swatches and Review



Happy Saturday, everyone! I can't think of a better way to kick off the weekend than an eye-searing neon coral! If you've been following me long you know my deep passion for all things coral and red. However, as much as I love coral, I am super picky when it comes to the shade of coral. Too pink or too peach or too this or that and it's just "not right" for me. This one though - I love it!

Ever After Polish and Anonymous Lacquer: Viva Las Vegas Duo - Swatches and Review




Good morning! It's been a weird week for me between headaches and work and computer problems. I was supposed to have this post up on Monday but I haven't been able to share it with you until now! This gorgeous duo is worth the wait though! Let's take a look at the Viva Las Vegas Duo from Ever After and Anonymous Lacquer! This was given out at Cocktails and Colors (my post on the event is coming soon, but there are pics on my Instagram if you want to check them out in the meantime), but is available for purchase now!

Butterfly Skittles



Hello! I am so glad this week is over! But I imagine most of us are. ;) Today I have a fun mani over the polish I showed you yesterday - 6 Harts Butterfly Floufs. I used 4 different Colors by Llarowe stamping polishes for this look!

Good morning! Today I have another polish to share with you that I received at Cocktails and Colors this year. This one is from 6 Harts, who has been on a polish-creating hiatus for a while. I am so glad she's back! This one will be available for purchase on August 15th, along with another new one that I got to see in person and must have! More on that later in the post!

Holo Flora: Colors by Llarowe - Garden of the Gods with Stamping



Hi lovelies! I finally have some nail art to show you! I have been missing nail art SO much! I just haven't had much time for it lately. I didn't have time for a freehand mani (hopefully soon!), but I did do some stamping and I love how it turned out!

Darling Diva Polish: The Watch Your Pack Collection - Swatches and Review



Hello and Happy Friday! There's a storm moving in outside and I can't think of a more appropriate collection to tell you about on a "dark and stormy" night than one inspired by werewolves! The show Teen Wolf, to be more specific. This is the Watch Your Pack Collection from Darling Diva Polish and there are some frighteningly pretty polishes in it! Okay, I'll stop with trying to make the post have a spooky theme. I honestly haven't watched this show and don't know if it is spooky. I mean, it should be, because werewolves. Also, once the calendar hits August I'm SO ready for it to be Halloween. I know it's still more than two months away, but I want it NOW.

Now, let's get to the polishes!
