Happy Thanksgiving.

Hi everyone and happy thanksgiving. Today I'm showing you Born Pretty's orange holo (born pretty has these numbered) # 5 . I started with one coat of a nude and then added two coats of #5 . I know I have said this already but adding the nude under the color does change the color but I just want you to be aware.  Here is this lovely orange holographic by born pretty. 



I really like the stamp I added to this it made it feel very fall. I stamped this with KleanColor Metallic Orange and Metallic Green. The stamped I used was Bundle Monster BM- H11.

I wanted to thank you our readers for taking the time and reading on our blog. 
I hope everyone that is celebrating Thanksgiving and all of you that aren't have a wonderful day.

Happy Hunger Games!!

Hey everybody:) Happy Hunger Games!! I love this book series and am so super excited about Catching Fire coming out today in movie theaters. Unfortunately both of my kiddos are sick and I can't go see it until they feel better, but I wanted to celebrate with everyone going to the movies today! So here is my tribute to the new movie Catching Fire!!

 
This mani has a lot of layering, here is a quick overview of what I did... I started with a black and red polish for the base, then I added the matte top coat. After that had time to dry (this was a all day thing) I started to hand paint the fire on... red, orange, yellow and last a touch of white. While that dried I painted the mochingjay, not the best work but but you get the point! Hope you have fun at the movie and love this mani as much as I do.
Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of this mani and if you are dressing up you mani for Catching Fire.

Happy Polishing Everyone and my the odds be ever in your favor!
Love,
~Anne~

SinfulColors Leather Lux & Crystal Crush review

Hey everybody:) Today I have a few polishes from SinfulColors, they sent me these for review. I really love fall and am super happy that the leaves actually turned colors this year here in Georgia!  These two collections Leather Lux and Crystal Crush pretty much hit the "fall" look out of the park!

Here is how SinfulColors describes this collection: The Leather Lux collection from SinfulColors is a textured rich, trend-setting collection of eight stylish leather-inspired, matte finish nail polish shades, which are richly pigmented to provide a flirtatious way to flaunt your style.

The first polish from this collection that I got to review is Strapped. It is a teal, matte finished polish. It has a  nice deep teal color for fall (nothing too light that it screams spring), needs two coats and might stain if you don't have a base coat on.



Cold Leather is a deep navy polish that went on in one coat and dried to a matte finish. This polish is my favorite that I received from both collections. It kinda reminds me of a new pair of jeans ( I love a new pair of jeans!).



Here again is what SinfulColors says about this next collection: The Crystal Crush collection from SinfulColors consists of eight vivid gem-inspired nail polish shades with a multifaceted 3D texture. Gorgeous colors flecked with a reflective pearl finish sure to dazzle your digits and make your heart skip a beat.

Emerald Envy is a light green textured polish with a lime green shimmer. Okay I have to say this... I really don't like textured polishes, sorry I've been holding that in for a while and it just had to come out! But with that said I was surprised by this polish. I thought this polish would be sheer but it wasn't, It covered in one coat. Very pretty color but was a little more spring time in my opinion.



Got a Blush for You is a berry color polish with texture. I loved the color and got away with just one coat but if you wanted a deeper color two coats will do the trick.



I think overall these polishes hit the mark with a fall theme and are going to add deep rich color to any collection. There are 8 polishes for each set (collection) and I think I need to make a trip to Walgreens to nab some for $1.99 each that is an awesome deal:) Leave me a comment and tell me what you think of these fall colors!

Love Birds

Hi all today I have for you born pretty holo #10 (on top of a nude base). I used two coats of #10 which I love on top of the nude polish. 



Then I stamped this beauty using KleanColor Metallic Sapphire and plate BM H17 from bundle monster. 


Very blingy and pretty. I really love this color and the stamp together. I hope this chases the Monday blues away. Have a lovely day!

Birthday

Hi all today I have for you a look I wore over the weekend for a birthday get together for my niece. This is a born pretty purple holographic with a nude base coat because I didn't want put on to many coats and it seemed a little thin. So I grabbed a nude did one coats then two coats of the purple. Such a beautiful purple!


Of course since it was for her birthday I did multi color ballons with KleanColors.....the KC's look holographic also! 

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. 
Thanks for checking out today's post!
