it’s not Spring

It’s freezing outside, so I couldn’t bring myself to use a “Spring” color…instead, I moseyed on over to my China Glaze Metro Downtown collection.

I chose China Glaze  “Westside Warrior”

I still wanted it to be “girly”, so I added a flower of Sinful Colors “Vacation Time”, with a dot of gold metallic acrylic paint.

 

Over Christmas

I loved the Christmas polish adventures…. but being happy that it’s over, I don’t really want to see anymore red and green polish for at least a couple of weeks!! 

so I ventured as far away from Christmas as I could when I painted my nails this time.
…but just some little freehand dotted flowers.

China Glaze “White On White” – acrylic paint dot flowers

As many others have reviewed “White On White”…. they are all right.  It’s a very pretty and creamy white polish…. once you get enough coats of polish on.  It’s a streaky polish, but I only had to use 2 coats to achieve these results.  I had initially planned on purchasing OPI Alpine Snow… and actually, next time I will.  #NoDiss

China Glaze–“Trendsetter”

I needed a cute design to brighten my day because I feel icky.  I think I’m fighting the flu and I am not a happy camper.  Found a video on nail art created with toothpicks….. came home and tried it:

The little flower seems like the highlight, but this China Glaze color, in all it’s drab undertone, has a BEAUTIFUL shimmer.  Little eensy weensy, tiny flecks of gold meandering all through the liquid.
