#31DC2015 Day 25 Fashion

I know basically nothing about fashion. I just wear sweats, black, and plaid all of the time. But I 'm so out of it that I haven't heard of Christian Louboutin. I know that red soles are his signature. So here we are with this rather shitty, bad quality photo of some nail art. Overall I wish I had time to redo this, but I don't.

I just used french manicure tips to make the red & black french manicure. I used NYC Black Lace Cream and China Glaze The Heat is On. I topped it off with NYC Matte Me Crazy.

Hi guys! In the midst of applying to colleges, applying for financial aid, and other gross adult things, I come to you with more of the 31 Day Challenge. Remember when you were a kid and you really just wanted to be an adult, yet every adult told you to stay a child because being an adult sucks? I was that way. Now I just want some candy and a nap.

  • Sally Hansen Wine Not
  • China Glaze Mingle with Kringle
  • O.P.I. I Sing In Color

#31DC2015 Days 19 & 20

Hey guys! I got a new light bulb on Saturday for my light box. You can totally tell the difference if you look at the two different designs I'm showing you today. The light bulb I got is a daylight bulb in 5000k and is so much more lighted and natural looking. I'm really pleased with the change.

Day 19 Galaxy

 I did a pastel galaxy for day 19. I always forget how much I love doing galaxy nail art until I do it. I really need to do it much often! I used Rimmel London Sweet Lavender, Rimmel London Mind The Gap, Victoria, NYC Boat Basin, and NYC Tropicoral. I used NYC French White Tip for the stars.Top coat is inm Out The Door.



Day 20 Water Marble

The thing is that I knew this water marble would be shitty because they always tend to be. Water marbles just don't like me I guess. I used O.P.I. Jade is the New Black and O.P.I. OPI...Eurso Euro. Top coat is inm Out The Door. Lets all just move on and pretend that this manicure doesn't exist. :p

#31DC2015 Days 17 & 18

Hey guys! Today I have both days 17 & 18 of the 31 Day Challenge for you. I was super lazy for day 17 and just put on Elf Gina Girl on and called it done. Well technically its glitter sooo...ha. On day 18 the prompt was half moon. So I did a negative space half moon manicure with Rimmel London Man Overboard and Nicole By O.P.I. Be Awesome. Both are topped with inm Out The Door top coat.
Day 17 Glitter



Day 18 Half Moon

#31DC2015 Day 15 Delicate Print

Hi friends! I just got back from my day at college and I'm ready to share day 15 of the 31 Day Challenge with you all! I always find day 15's prompt: delicate print hard because delicate can mean many different things to many different people. I guess to me delicate is soft colors, gold, simple patterns, flowers, nature things, etc.


The base is Sally Hansen Ballet Bare. The gold polish is Julie G Ornamental. I used a dotting tool and striping tape to make the design. Top coat is Seche Vite.

Yes!! I'm finally caught up on the challenge. Today I have yesterday's prompt which was stripes and today's prompt which is animal print.

  • China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy
  • China Glaze The Heat is On

#31DC2015 Days 3 Yellow & 4 Green

Hey guys. I was sick yesterday so today I have both days 3 and 4 on the blog. The prompt for day 3 is yellow and for day 4 its green. I have a lot of pictures to show you so I'm just going to jump right in!

Day 3 Yellow

The base for this design is SinfulColors V.I.Peach. I used SinfulColors Hazard and O.P.I. OY-Another Polish Joke! for the chevron design. I topped it all off with NYC Matte Me Crazy. 
 



Day 4 Green

Some nail days are just bad okay. I tried my hand at the green prompt 4 times, but I just kept screwing it up. So I ended up settling for this design. I used NYC Palm on The Beach, Ulta Mint Condition, and China Glaze Pine-ing For Glitter. The stud is from The New Black. I again topped it off with NYC Matte Me Crazy.
