Monday Blues - Colors by Llarowe Wind Beneath My Wings

Hi, guys - Happy Mondayyyy! We are still enjoying some cold and dreary weather here in Colorado, but I am not going to let it get me down - especially when I have a stunning polish to show you for today's Monday Blues!


This is Colors by Llarowe Wind Beneath My Wings. This polish was part of a recent collection of charity polishes - the proceeds from the sales of this particular polish went to the Prostate Cancer Foundation. Wind Beneath My Wings is a gorgeous medium denim blue with a touch of holo and an amazing copper shimmer.

I just had to have this polish - and I mean had to have it. Like, in an I-seriously-questioned-my-sanity kind of way. Llarowe launches/restocks can be kind of crazy, but this one took the cake. I was at my computer at exactly 15 minutes prior to go time, and was promptly placed in the "queue" at the top of the hour. About 7 minutes later I was allowed into the website for my turn, only to find that Wind Beneath My Wings was reserved! I hit refresh for nearly an hour - an HOUR - but I couldn't give up while there was still a chance! My bf even created an account on llarowe.com in an effort to help snag one for me (talk about true love), and finally, victory was mine!


Was it worth it? Absolutely. Do I still question my sanity? Every day, people...every day.  :)

You can check out Colors by Llarowe online at llarowe.com, or on Facebook. For restock/launch info, you can stay up to date via Llarowe's Facebook page (or have your bf create an account on llarowe.com and he can let you know, too!).

The Neverending Pile Challenge - Boutique

Hi, guys - I hope everyone is having a great week! Last week I had really had it with the snow and cold weather, so the bf and I took off for an impromptu weekend in Las Vegas! For a few days we enjoyed the warm weather, drinks by the pool, and In-N-Out Burger!!!

Today I am back with the Neverending Pile Challenge and our theme is boutique. I figured I couldn't go wrong with two polishes from I Love Nail Polish as they say "boutique nail lacquer" right on the label!


These are my picks from the ILNP Spring 2014 collection - Cutie Pop and Music Box. Both of these shades are absolutely stunning! Cutie Pop is a coral-ish pink with golden shimmer and a subtle holo sparkle. Music Box is a dusty teal with turquoise sparkle and a slightly stronger holo.


Check it out - this mani almost matches my Topsie!  :)

The Neverending Pile Challenge - Glitter

Woo woo it's challenge time! Missy over at Gnarly Gnails has put together The Neverending Pile Challenge where we dust off those untried polishes and wear 'em! I hope to participate in quite a few of the prompts for this challenge, as I have soooooo many polishes that haven't been shown any love.

The first challenge theme is glitter!


I decided to go with HARE polish Oh What Fun it is to Love, which was part of the Bohemian Holiday 2013 collection. This polish is a lovely pinkish/brick red shade with golden and white glitters, and a delicate shimmer. I really love this - I think it just might be my new favorite HARE polish!


For more information about the challenge - or to join in - check out the Glittah Pirates Facebook Group.

Monday Blues - ellagee Chase The Clouds Away

Hi, guys - I hope everyone had a great weekend! I did a little bit of spring cleaning and then settled in for the Game of Thrones season 4 premier - yayyy! Of course the end of the weekend means Monday, and that means the Monday Blues.


ellagee Chase The Clouds Away is a beautiful sky blue with holographic shimmer and lots of teeny tiny glitters in a rainbow of colors. Sounds like the perfect April polish, no? Hopefully we've chased the last of the snow away here - I'm so over winter but it seems to just keep hanging on.  :/


You can check out ellagee polish at ellagee.com and on Facebook. Be sure to check out the other Monday Blues manis, too! Thanks for reading!
