NAILLINKUP - Yellow Polka Dot Bikini

Hi, guys! Tonight I have my mani for the second theme of this month's Nail Art Ideas Linkup (N.A.I.L.) - Yellow Polka Dot Bikini! The idea for this theme was to think SUMMER - summer time fun, songs, sun and swimwear!


On my pointer and pinky I applied ILNP Summer Crush - how awesome is this pink?! The happy yellow on my middle and ring fingers is Vapid Lacquer Lemon Drop. Unfortunately, when I applied my dots Summer Crush gave me the middle finger and decided to look kinda orange. Ah well, I forgive you Summer Crush because this mani is still fun and dotty and summery.

Thanks a lot for reading and please check out all of the other cute Yellow Polka Dot Bikini manis, too!

Bliss Polish Stripes

Hi, guys! Tonight I have a pretty simple stripes mani to share with you.


On my pointer and pinky I applied Bliss Polish Bad To The Gnome. On my middle and ring finger I started with Bliss Polish She's A Winner - this gold holo is soooo pretty! Using some uneven line stencils from Vinyl Boutique, I added some stripes to the gold nails with Bad To The Gnome.


I really enjoyed this look! Thanks so much for reading!

NAILLINKUP - Anything New

Hi, guys and Happy New Year! Tonight I have a mani for the first of January's Nail Art Ideas Linkup (N.A.I.L.) themes - Anything New.


The idea behind this theme is polish(es) you may have gotten for Christmas or acquired during the holidays. I used two brand new polishes for this mani! I started with Love, Angeline 01/16 on all of my nails except for on my middle finger - there I used Vapid Lacquer Unicorn Egg. Both of these polishes are stunning! I will definitely have to feature Unicorn Egg in a mani of its own sometime.

On my accent nail I used a mum flower stencil from You Polish, which I also received over the holidays. I thought I had centered it pretty well on the nail, but not so much, lol. I guess these take a bit of practice, too.  :)

Thanks so much for looking! I hope your new year is off to a great start and please be sure to check out the other Anything New manis, too!

NAILLINKUP - Oh Christmas Tree

Hi, guys and Merry Christmas! Today I have another Nail Art Ideas Linkup (N.A.I.L.) mani and the theme is Oh Christmas Tree!


My inspiration was this mani by Marine of Marine Loves Polish. Her nail art is always amazing and I love her black, white, and silver version of this!


On my index and pinky fingers I used OPI Red Fingers & Mistletoes. The glitter on my middle finger is Philly Loves Lacquer Tinsel: Not Just for Decoration. On my ring finger I applied Pahlish Ghost in my Lungs and then stamped with M Polish Bells using the abstract Christmas tree image from the Cheeky Happy Holidays plate.


I'm somewhat bummed with the stamping because you can't really see it that well, but I'm really happy with the combination of colors and the overall holiday look and feel that this has.


One last slightly blurry picture because I really, really love this glitter.  :)

Thanks a lot for looking and I hope you have a very happy holiday! Please be sure to check out the other Christmas Tree manis, too!

NAILLINKUP - Let it Sparkle!

Hi, guys! Today I have another mani for one of this month's Nail Art Ideas Linkup (N.A.I.L.) themes - Let it Sparkle!


For this mani, I was really excited to use Ever After Polish Twinkle All the Way. I wore it by itself on my middle and ring fingers, and I applied one pretty generous coat (because I wanted to get some of those larger red glitters) over Scofflaw Nail Varnish Coniferous on my index and pinky.

I really loved wearing this mani throughout the week. It's pretty simple, but it felt very Christmas-y and very sparkly!

Thanks so much for looking! Be sure to check out the other sparkly manis, too!

Ugly Christmas Sweaters

Hi, guys! Quick post tonight of my Ugly Christmas Sweater nails.


My base polish is Stardust Polish Yes Your Majesty. I stamped with Rica Whiteout using different images from the one and only MoYou Festive Collection 06 plate. Both of these polishes were amazing to work with and I am really happy with the final look. The only challenge was getting these little suckers straight and not looking too terribly wonky!

Thanks for reading!

Hi, guys! Nail Art Ideas Linkup (N.A.I.L.) is back - YAY!!! The first theme for December is Pink Christmas.


I chose to do a delicate snowflake mani using piCture pOlish Bardot for my base. I stamped with China Glaze Check Out the Silver Fox using an image from the Cheeky Happy Holidays plate. I'm so happy with how these turned out!
