Christmas Plaid!

Nothing to Disclose

Merry Christmas Eve to everyone who celebrates! I have been sick for the past week and between that and the normal last minute Christmas rush, I haven' had much time for my nails. In fact, I've been completely naked for the past 3 days! *GASP* I am hoping to do one last Christmas mani later though, as well as one on my mom. 

But for now, this is the only Christmas mani I've done in the past 2 weeks. I was really happy with it though!




 Post continued after the jump!

Red and Black, Split in Half

Happy Saturday! This is the first chance I have had to sit down and take a breath all day so I am just going to show you a quick and easy nail art mani I wore earlier this week. I super duper love this mani!

I had been wearing Chanel Dragon for a day and wanted to do some type of nail art with it so I decided to do a tape mani using SoFlaJo Black Dagger (yes, again - I really love this polish!). I really love the outcome!

Favorites of 2012 - Part 1 - Favorites I Was Behind On

Happy (almost) New Year's Eve everyone! Tonight I have for you a favorites post that is a little different than some you have been seeing around the blogosphere. These are my favorite polishes that I acquired this year that were released prior to this year - in other words, polishes I was behind on!

I was going to narrow this down to 12 for 2012 but I just couldn't knock any of these off my list so I have lucky #13 for you today. Here they are in no particular order.

-------------------------------

Chanel Dragon - I received this as a birthday gift in November. It was my first Chanel and it is simply amazing. Perfect. Red. Creme.

Chanel Dragon

China Glaze High Def - this is from China Glaze's Tronica Collection that came out in 2011 - and I managed to miss every single one. Now I need them all. LOL! This one is a perfect dusty blue.

China Glaze High Def

 Dior Liquorice - this super hard-to-find Dior is simply amazing. The picture speaks for itself.

Illamasqua Hectic - I do love me some poopy greens and this one is my favorite. It was not easy to acquire this polish as it is extremely hard-to-find so that makes me treasure it even more.

Illamasqua Hectic


MAC Bad Fairy - this one needs no explanation. And the story behind it makes it very near and dear to my heart.

Zoya Petra - this is one of my go-to polishes. I wear this polish a lot and am at least halfway through the bottle.

Dior Purple Mix - one of my favorite polishes out of my whole stash. You can't go wrong with a Dior creme and this color is to die for.

China Glaze Hyper Haute - another offering from the Tronica Collection. This is my favorite out of the Tronicas that I have so far.

Zoya Jana - I wear this polish all. the. time. However, I realized I have NEVER blogged it! How in the world did that happen? LOL! So, I have borrowed a photo from Pointless Cafe.

Zoya Jana

Dior Jamaican Pepper - can you tell that I love Dior? This time last year I had never even considered Dior polish - now it is one of my favorites. I would own even more if my wallet would let me!

Dior Jamaican Pepper

Orly Frolic - just such a happy, cheery color.

Orly Green Apple - this shade of green looks yummy enough to eat (pun intended).

Sinful Colors Dream On - (shown with stamping) - I absolutely adore this color and the rubber finish of this polish.

Sinful Colors Dream On

Well, there are my previously-released favorites! I will be back tomorrow with more favorites! Let me know your favorites in the comments!

Thanks for reading and happy polishing! ♥

Chanel Dragon is Red Perfection!

Happy Friday! 

This is the beginning of my "birthday weekend" (my birthday is the 11th) and I have an early birthday pressie to show you tonight. I have received so many sweet polish gifts from some AMAZING ladies that I consider friends.  I have worn many of them but haven't had a chance to post them - I hope to get them all posted soon!

I received Chanel Dragon from my friend Sheila at Pointless Cafe. I have had this one on my wishlist for a long time and am so thrilled to have it. And it is my first Chanel! Yipee! Thanks so  much, Sheila! ♥

I would describe Dragon as a blood red. I think it would look good on cool-toned or warm-toned skin.The formula was PERFECT. It is, by far, the most opaque red creme that I own (and I have a LOT of reds). This could have been a one-coater but I used two. I topped it off with one coat of Poshe. I have been wearing it for 2 days (and am still wearing it as I type) and I have no chips or tip wear.
