Spring Break

So it's that time of the week again! I have only done two manis this week due to the fact that it was SPRING BREAK!!! Unfortunately I have to go back to class this week, as in tomorrow. I am not excited! Anyhow here they are.
 This is three coats of Happi by Zoya. It is a beautiful pink (and I hate pink), my cuticles are kind of dry (as you can tell), it is a rose gold with subtle shimmer.

Happy St. Patrick's day! I will hopefully be adding some art to this colour but it is Sassy by Revlon. As always I'm wearing lime green thusly I am wearing my TEAM BARCLAY bracelet. I am so proud of him and am so honored to call him a friend.

One Day Late

I'm back again :)

So this week again was a one colour week. I had tests all week long so I had to choose something and stay happy with it until classes were done. Right now my nails are naked!

But this is the beauty that graced my nails this week :)

 Watercolour nails! This was suggested by a follower on Instagram when I said I was in a fun (I still am so suggest away). This picture is with a shirt that I have that matches it :)
This is just alone. Very pretty :)

That's it for this weeks installment. If you have any suggestions on nail art I should do leave it in the comments below <3

I said I was going to update once a week...

and I plan on keeping that promise! Last week, exactly one week ago actually, my cousin got married and so of course I had to have a simple French Mani  then Wednesday I had court (which I ended up not needing to go to) and because of school I haven't had time to do anything with it but Friday (aka yesterday) I put on a coat of Polish Addict's "Metal Princess," this colour speaks for it's self.
Now anyone that knows me knows that I hate glitter polishes but this one is so pretty and so perfect! Purple and black square glitter and purple and black hex glitter of varying sizes, purple and silver bar glitter, and my favorite part that surprised me more than anything BLACK HEART GLITTER! In love with this polish!
Sorry for the lack of clean up it was a quick swatch before I had to go to a thing for school. This is also done on my dominate hand so I think this is pretty good for that! Also excuse the cuticles, I can't get my right hand to cooperate.

Hey! Yeah! Sorry!

So as y'all have noticed I've really been forgetting to update here. I've got a ton of new polishes that I need to add on this and my wishlist. I promise that I will update once a week with my nails. That is my new years resolution (well my late new years resolution).

This is my current mani it is Grape Pop from ZombieDarlings y'all should defiantly go check her out and get some polish, it is so beautiful. For once my iPod freaking out because of the holo is a good thing because it shows the true colour and how holo it is. This was also a quick swatch before class so that is why it doesn't look the best.

I forget to come here after I post to IG

So I hate glitter polishes but I recently bought two and not just any two my first two China Glazes!!!! Admittedly the only reason I bought them was for the "free" gift that comes with them, a shot glass! I maybe a year and a half away from drinking but that does not mean that I can't get prepared now, right? So this is just a plain glitter mani (that I love but maybe not the colour with my skin tone).
Angel Wings by China Glaze
My New Years nails was based off the theme of gold and black in my house my thumb was just pretty simple to do and had a very pretty finish in my opinion, I will do again sometime. 2013 on my pointer, a star/firework on my middle finger with a rhinestone in the middle, my ring finger had Wet 'n Wilds New Years Kiss from the Fergie collection over a plain black (closest that I'm coming to a New Years Kiss with my bf type person (long complicated story) being 5,000+ miles away), and my pinky had a tiny clock pointed to 12:00 on it.

So this January I'm going to try to be on a no buy month, not going to work to well probably (although I hope it will because I have things I need to pay...). I decided that I would swatch all my untrieds the other night...until I looked at how many I had and saw I have 60 (four of which will come in on Friday or Saturday after I purchased them from Ulta with a gift card my mama gave me). So I will be doing two per day, at least. So I now introduce you to Untrieds Month!
Hard Metal from Rimmel London and Teal or no Teal from Wet 'N Wild.

Same as before but Matte, so a three untrieds basically!
Talk again after I post tonight's colour set.

XOXO,
Smells Like Nails
