H is for Halloween

I know its a late post to make. Specially since Christmas is so close.
But, since I haven't made any Halloween manicures this year, this will be mine.

For this manicure I used Orly- Purple Pleather, and Max Factor Fantasy Fire.
Purple Pleather covers in two coats.

Playing catchup on my ABC challenge from Llama Nails.

I am your Girl Next Door

I have been in the UK for a good month now. I have dodged away flirtatious men, and girls ( yupp, had a few of them as well), since I got here. Maybe I am the "Girl Next Door". But it feels odd to be flirted with, after so many years of being in a relationship. It's a new journey.
After 7 years of being in a relationship with someone ( Relationship 1: 3 years, Relationship 2: 4 years) with only 3 weeks break between them. It's safe to say, this is new to me.

So far I have had an in-game ( World Of Warcraft) date with a guildie, a "date" by txt (with the same guildie), various suggestions, flirty comments, and "I want you to be the mother of my future kids" (!!).

So with all this on my mind, I grabbed Misa- Girl Next Door. And wore it on it's own.
(wow, that's really deep ms.secretary, really deep)

I think this would be even better layered over another polish, or even for a french.
I think I had 3-4 coats here...

Where I had my, by-txt-date

After all that thinking, you just need to relax with a good cup  of chai.

Twinpost: I'll be wearing my Flip Flops

YaY! Its Friday!!

This weeks Cheeky Girl Challenge, we are doing CH37. The image we selected was the Flip Flops.
Shoot me now.
I hated this image.
It didn't stamp well for me, at all.

But after a few hours of banging my head against the wall, I managed to get it to look somewhat decent.


I used Misa - Working hard, hardly working
Makeup Mekka - Strawberry Daiquiri
Makeup Mekka - Green and Tonic
Depend - 124

G is for Green

Here is another festive Christmas-y manicure.

Todays manicure is for the ABC challenge at Llama Nails (FB)  . My G is for Green. Yeah I know, kinda obvious. 

May I just pause for a moment, and say ...wow... I love this.

Indoors

and then I did something I'm not very proud of. I added Barielle - Elle's Spell over the green. Its denser that I thought it was. My bad.

Lets see if we can fix it / make it work, non the less.

What do you think? Maybe Elle's Spell wasn't such a bad idea after all...

F is for Festive

We are getting closer and closer to Christmas, there is no denying it.
And since I'm still determined to play catchup on the ABC Challenge over at Llama Nails, my F will be for Festive, and kinda Christmas-y, without being overly so.

For this manicure I used red rhinestones, and Orly - Flagstone Rush.
Working hard on trying out all the polishes I got from US. This polish is gorgeous. Metallic shimmer, and with the added rhinestones, it would make for a wonderful Christmas manicure.

The rhinestone on my index finger slid a little there.. so will have to redo them...
Be sure to check out what the other girls did with their F-manicures.

D is for Dailies

So I am all in The World Of Warcraft today. And when I was wondering what to do for my ABC challenge next, it sure had to be something related to my game.

Dailies.

For those of you whom are not in the know:
Dailies are different from ordinary quests cause they can be repeated, over and over again, but only once a day, while as quests are a once in a life time event.
This will give you reputation with the faction/clan of the person you do the quests for.
This can give you mounts/gear/ or other fun/useful stuff in-game.

Me and one mount I acquired from doing dailies.

For this manicure I used Cheeky plate CH48.

Orly - Viridian Vinyl

Makeup Mekka - Remember 79'

Look! It matches my teapot!

w/ Flash

Heavily cloudy that day, but at least this get the color right. 

Everywhere I see, I see dailies!!

Barielle - Katalicious

I wanted to try out Katalicious from Barielle.
It looks so gorgeous in the bottle, and I was just dying to try it out.
The coppery red goes perfect for autumn.

Then I decided to stamp with my new MASH plates. I decided to go for swirlies, and picked out MASH 45. I wanted a subtle stamp, and used Barielle - Blackened Bleu.

It reminds me of a pattern I found in a book about "Designs through history".

Isn't it gorgeous?
