Braided Nail Art

Hey Beauties!
Sorry for the lack of post this past week, I am currently on vacation with my family.
The other day Cute Polish from YouTube uploaded a video on braided nails. I fell in live with this look, so I tried this out right away. It was a super easy look to create as soon as you get the hang of it! However this look did take me a while to do.

The nails that Cute Polish created turned out like this:



And the design I came up with is:




For this look, you only need 3 polishes. The ones I chose were:
- L.A. Colors in Electrified
- Maybelline New York Express Finish in Onyx Rush
- Maybelline New York Express Fibish in Racy Red
- Rimmel London Clear Base Coat
- China Glaze Fast Foreward Top Coat which I am LOVING right now!


I hope you all like this look and be sure check out the video tutorial to get the same look!

Yellow Polka Dot Bikini NOTW

Hey Girls!
Sorry for the lack of posts this week! It's been kind of crazy with alot of things happening this week. But, this weekend its a long weekend for me where I live because Monday is a holiday, so I will have time to get some posts up this weekend!

Earlier this week I did my nails and wanted to do them nice and summery. I chose yellow because I find this color to get me into the summer mood. As I was doing my nails and I thought adding some white polka dots would add a fun look to them! Once I started doing the dots the lyrics Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini came into my head, which inspired the name of this post!




Polishes Used:
- Sally Hansen Hard as Nails in Mellow Yellow
- Sally Hansen Hard as Nails in White Out
- China Glaze Fast Forward Top Coat

*TIP: If you have touble like me at doing perfectly straight side swipes on your nails follow this one super easy step!


Take some Scotch Tape and lightly place the tape where you want your side swipe to be. Paint the top helf of your nail, and once the polish is dry carefully remove the tape and finish your design!

Have a great weekend!

Out With The Old; In With The Bold!

Hi Beauties!
I cant believe this but there are only...
I cant wait for all the snow to start melting, and all the spring plants to start growing again! Sadly where I live we just had a blizzard the other day so there is so much snow! Crossing my fingers that the snow will melt fast!!

This week I wasn't planning on posting about my nail art, but I keep getting compliments on it so I decided might as well! :)





I used China Glaze's Polish in Jamaican Out on my entire nails, then I used my American Painter Nail Art Brush and some black polsish to add the details to my nails!

I also wanted to include some spring trends that I am loving this coming season!







I am really exicted for bold and bright colors, but also for pastel colors too! I am especially loving the mint green color (as shown above)! Winter can get so gloomy since there is just alot of dark colors, so I am exicted to start wearing lots of colors!

What spring trend are you exicted for??

Lovely Leopard NOTW

Hey beauties!
This weekend I actually got creative with my nails. I used one of my polishes that I won from a giveaway from Holly (hollyand polish.blogspot.com) to get this look. First off I used China Glaze's Swing Baby then I applied L.A. Colors Sassy Sparkle to give the nails some glitter. After that I drew on some cheetah spots and then finished with Sally Hansen's Top Coat.
And here's how they turned out!





How are you wearing your nails this week?
