Some Random Manis

hi!~ i havent had a mani post in a while. i've lacked lots & lots & lots of inspiration lately so i've been doing nothing but simple/boring stuff.


i forget what pinks i used here. but i HATED this mani so much, i took it off the day after i finished it.


black matte + shiny leopard print + rhinestones & pearls. i liked this one. too bad it didnt last a full day at work :X


i think this is 4 coats of China Glaze's White Cap; 3 would have been fine but i went with 4 anyway. let me just say.. i LOVE White Cap!!~ these pictures dont do any justice.

yea, i think im done here. :P hope you're enjoying your weekend! its snowing like CRAZYYY here in Michigan...looks like i'll be home for the rest of today :P

have a good one!,

    omggg these are all too cute!! I like the pink one and the black & matte ones. How were you able to stick the rhinestones on while keeping the polish matte? Did you use a matte top coat or just nail glue?

    I LOVE your second mani. I've got to try that sometime :). And your last mani looks amazing. The flowers look so awesome.

    Can't pick a favourite of the 3, they all have their own charm. I haven't tried a halfmoon mani on my short nails, because I thought it wouldn't look good. But your mani #1 proves otherwise. Like the contrast in mani #2 and mani #3 is just beautiful!

    Of course all three are super cute but the first one has to be my favorite of the bunch.

    awww, you guys are so sweet! thank you!! <33333

    Julie...about applying the rhinestones & keeping it matte..i first painted my nails black, used regular top coat & stuck on the rhinestones. then i layered another coat of top coat on top...then i used my matte top coat. then i used my regular top coat & went over the rhinestones & pearls. - - - it was a long process. haha

    Megan, oh yea! totally cool! i'd love to see your recreation of em :D

    Monique, oh, im sure you'll be able to pull it off!!~ :)

    Polishing The World, awww, that is so sweet! thanks!~

    white cap is so pretty..but I own opi hollywood blonde + Princess rule and they are very similiar to white cap..a nude version and a pink version...so im still trying to decide if I want white cap or not ...argh

    I'm trying super hard to avoid dupe or dupish polishes
