Springy Floral Frames Featuring Hex Nail Jewelry Charms!

Hello everyone! Today I have some floral frame nails to share!

I've been applying for jobs lately but I've yet to hear back from anyone. My boyfriend is still away for another month so I wish I could get a job to make the time go by quicker! On the plus side, I have been able to relax and do a lot of things that I like, but that does make the time seem to go by slower.

Anyways, onto the nails!


I started off with two coats of OPI My Dogsled is a Hybrid, OPI Good Grief! or American Apparel French Lilac on most of my nails. I then went in with each of those colours on a small paint brush for the accent nails.


Immediately after top coating the floral frame nails, I picked up the Hex Nail Jewelry charms with some tweezers and placed them while the top coat was still wet. After that dried, I top coated and cleaned up all my nails to complete the look.


What do you guys think of this look? I think they came out much too girly for my tastes but I love the charms that I used!


Thanks so much for having a look everyone! I'll be back with an Essie Silk Watercolor collection look soon! Happy Wednesday! =)

Saint Patrick Nails for Nail Crazy in March!

Yo yo yo my lovely people! Today I have some Saint Patrick nail art to share for Nail Crazy in March!

I'm getting this post up a couple days late because of family stuffs. Enough about that though, let's talk about nails! My lovely boyfriend bought me eight polishes from Harlow & Co last night and I can't freaking wait to get them! Rest assured you'll see some gorgeous KBShimmer, Glam Polish, Polished by KPT and Crows Toes polishes in the near future!

Anyways, onto the nails!

So these nails are based on the myth that Saint Patrick banished all of snakes from Ireland by chasing them into the ocean with his staff. Really though, snakes have never lived in Ireland :P.

Rather than explain how I did these, I'll just embed my Instagram video tutorial down below! As for the polishes, I used American Apparel Mount Royal topped with KBShimmer Will Yule Marry Me? for the ocean, KBShimmer In Bare Form for the sand, Deborah Lippmann Hannah (green) and Jessa (red) for the snakes and Milani 3D Holographic Nail Lacquer 3D for the staff.

I'm officially madly in love with KBShimmer polishes! Both of the ones I used here were so easy to work with and In Bare Form is so holographic and basically my perfect nude!

I really don't think the gold jives well with the rest of these colours and in general these didn't turn out as cool as I thought they would. They're almost a nail fail in my mind, but I'm still happy that I came up with a unique idea for this challenge. What do you guys think of these nails or these KBShimmers? I'd love to know!

Here's the super quick tutorial!

Thanks so much for taking a look guys!! I'm thinking of posting more often on here (like three days a week) since I only have one more midterm (my eighth of the semester :P) to write so I might have some more free time. We'll see! I'm not sure what I'll be back with but it'll be soon! Happy Saturday guys! =)

Deborah Lippmann Marnie & Snake Nail Art with the Deborah Lippmann Girls Collection!

Yo yo yo! Today I have some nail art to share featuring the Deborah Lippmann Girls Collection!

Tonight's post will be a quick one because I still have homework to do and it's just about bed time :P. I'm still feeling very overwhelmed with school so I need to do as much homework as possible to de-stress.

Deborah Lippmann Marnie

Here is a quick swatch of Deborah Lippmann Marnie, a light pink crelly which is pinker (i.e. a darker pink) than I was able to capture on any camera. It was a bit streaky and a three-coater but I'm so in love with the brush and I've wanted to try a Deborah Lippmann for so long that I have no complaints!

Now for the nail art! I used the other three polishes from the Girls collection for these snake nails; Jessa (the dark red crelly), Hannah (the dusty green creme) and Shoshanna (the light purple creme with shimmer). All dried fast and were super easy to work with!

For the snake-skin-looking nails I used a technique from a tutorial by the lovely Jaunty Juli! Check out her awesome and quick tutorial if you want to know how I did these!
