Orly Goth.....

If you don't know by now, black polish is my all time favorite go to polish. I think it looks so chic on nails, that are not too long, and it goes with everything.

Here is Goth. It's a black cream with silver shimmer. I found it at my local Sally's in a tiny little, new, stand, that also had just a plain black, and an orange. Sorry, don't remember the names!

Another Scotch Tape mani!!

This pink, has no name :( I picked it up at my CVS in a set of 4 for only $2.99!!!!! You can't beat that, here is what the set looked like, and later in the week, I will do swatches of them all.


















They say metallic, but the pink finsh reminds me of the glass flecks, similar to Zoya, Charla.

Here is how I placed my tape. Once you paint your base color, and wait for that to dry, you can place your tape on your nail.




















Then, when you get it placed, where you would like, you put the next color on. As soon as you do that, pull the tape off. Only do 1 nail at a time. Otherwise the polish could dry to the tape, and pull up.

Here is my final design



















It's not my best application or straightest lines, I wasn't feeling to well, but I still like it!

I'm a punk rock prom queen. Brown paper magazine. Hotter than you've ever seen. Everywhere and in between ...

Even though I'm almost 30, EEKKK, I still love to listen to my Josie & the Pussycats soundtrack every so often. That movie, as dumb as it is, cracks me up!!!  Well, when I did this mani, for some reason that song popped into my head, maybe because the pink bow came in a pack called Punky Princess. I don't know.

I used a polish that has no name :( the brand is 10 though. Then I used Sinfuls Black on Black for the tips
The pink bow rhinestone thingy is a decal I got at Sally's

Here it is before the cute bow



Now with the cute little pink bow with rhinetsone. I love it, and just adds enough Ummph to this french.

A 'Pendant' for Polish!


Today's giveaway prize is from one of the nail polish community's own, it's a handmade creation from Tracey, creator of Ginger Kitty Designs!




If you're not aware of Tracey and her gorgeous creations, now is a great time to go check out her Etsy Store! There are some incredible pieces of jewelry there- bracelets, rings, earrings, and pendants- ALL MADE WITH NAIL POLISH!! How awesome is that?! The best part is while her products are gorgeous, they are ALSO inexpensive, and with the holidays are coming up, they'd be wonderful for those nail polish fanatics in your life! (OR YOURSELF!!! :))

The pendant that she made for this giveaway was all made with CND Colors and Effects!! I'm drooling over it, and I'm so jealous of the winner... though she made me a gorgeous ring with Nfu Oh 51!!
