Taggage

Hey girls! More tags today from Sarah, haha.



I don't really know which rules go with which tag, so I'll just put all my answers *says in slow deep voice* beeloow. ;)

1. Why did you create a blog?
Well, I had been reading nail blogs for quite some time and thought, hey! Why don't I add yet another crappy blog that no one would want to read! Actually I just thought it would be a fun creative hobby since I had been buying lots of polish and taking pictures of my nails.


2. What kind of blogs do you follow?
Nail polish, makeup and I guess I follow one fashion blog.


3. Do you have a favourite make-up brand?
Nope, I wear whatever looks good.


4. And a favourite clothing brand?
Na, I just buy what I like and what doesn't cost an arm and a leg.


5. What make-up products is essential for you?
Eyeliner!


6. What’s your favourite colour?
I love red forever.


7. What’s your favourite perfume?
Agh, I don't have one! I'm failing to provide intersting answers here...


8. What’s the film you liked the most?
I watch way too many to even remember which one I liked most.


9. What countries/places would you like to go?
Nowhere really in my home land, but I'd love to go to Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Austria, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Portugal, Russia and some countries in South America.


Now the second one.


Blog Author - Get to Know You Questionnaire


1. Innie or outie?
I have an innie, so innie.


2. Unlimited wealth or unlimited health?
I don't like the idea of living to be 100, but I think I'd rather be healthy and earn my money the hard way.


3. What is your favorite book?
I read way too many to have a favorite.


4. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live and why?
I'd stay right here in the good ol' US of A.


5. What is your security blanket?
Umm, sandwich?

6. What is your mode of transportation?
Bike, bus or dad driving me.

Oh, Harry Potter...I never got into it.

I never really identified with princesses, haha!

Models Own 'Car Key' Collection


Photo Source

So here's the new Model's Own collection. I haven't seen anyone post it, so I thought I would. They're supposed to be a cheaper version of the awesome Chanel Collection 'Les Khakis de Chanel.' Obviously they're not dupes, which sucks, but I'm excited for these! I was sooo bummed that I couldn't get the Chanel collection. I've never wanted a Chanel polish as much as Khaki Vert. Actually, I've never really wanted any Chanel polish that much.

Here's what they say about it:

"Models Own launch a collection of ultra-covetable Autumn/Winter colours that once again provide a chic and affordable alternative to those by Chanel. The seasonal shades bear a striking resemblance to Chanel’s Khaki collection, so much so that in homage, we’ve named this military-esq trio The Car Key Collection."

"Launching in Boots from October 2010, the collection consists of three brand new shades – Grace Green, a mossy pastel green; Becca’s Brown, a dusky beige hue and Purple Ash, a vintage dusky rose. Designed to complement the colours of the season, our latest collection offers surprising and intriguing combinations that are all ultra-wearable and bang on trend."

You can get these for £5 each from Boots and River Island, which are both stores in the UK (duh) starting October 6, 2010 or online at modelsownit.com starting October 13, 2010.

=D What do you think?

Award that I forgot the name of

I was tagged by sweet krex for this award. You're supposed to say what you like about your blog...can I say what I don't like about it? Kidding. Let's see, I like that I can be as much of an idiot as I want here and that I don't have to take myself so seriously. I like the wide aray of posts I do. (kidding again) I like that my sarcasm can run free here. My pictures are pretty nice when my camera isn't dying on me. Lastly, I like the interaction with other junkies that I get from it.



I tag:
1. Look at Them Pretty Colors!
2. Hangi Oje Yakismaz Ki Bana Woah, I remember that!
3. Alizarine Claws
4. Nihrida's Blog
5. Wild Card. Anyone.

Ulta Black Lace

Is anyone still out there? I'm having issues with my camera. I think it's time for a new one. I wouldn't post these pictures normally, but I want to show you guys that I'm not backing out of blogging, just that I can't take good pictures to even post. You also get to see my uneven right hand that I STILL haven't evened out since I lost my ring fingernail in Corpus.


Somethings wrong with the something or other, I don't remember. But I think it's on its last legs.

Okay, for all of you that were wondering where I was, I was visiting with my aunts and little cousin for a few days, then we went to Corpus for a couple days. I wasn't able to post my NYX Jungle or ChG Emerald Fitzgerald manis because I didn't have time to take photos. Then when they left I got all sad and depressed blah blah, and didn't feel like doing my nails or blogging. I'm back now though, one follower less and a few nail casualties, but I'm good! My nails held up amazingly, I thought they'd all be gone since they were naked the entire week or so, but they stood up to the abuse of water and other things.

Last but not least, I wanna say thanks to all the wonderful ladies that read and comment on my blog. It makes me happy to be able to share my obsession with others!

Really pretty jewel toned magenta. Nothing much left to say about it!

Bad Romance or Across The Universe?

Okay, I know I haven't posted in what seems like forever, but has only been a week, but I'll be back with something. I've just been kinda pissed off at my middle nail, and with my nails in general. I know I should file away the creepiness...but...I can't!

Anyway, enough about that. The real reason I'm here is I wanna know which Deborah Lippmann polish I should get or if I should even blow 18 smackaroos on one. You should know by now I like to ask you good people the hard questions that plague me. I'm kinda scared to though, $18 bucks is a lot. It's funny, I think Nfu Oh is a perfectly reasonable price to pay for what you get, but DL is not. I guess it's because you get the awesome bottle and the awesome colors that Nfu does. I'm rambling now.

So tell me, Bad Romance or Across The Universe?

Haz click it here to see the colors.

Zoya Charla

Please don't slap me, but I'm gonna show you yet more photos of Charla. A lot of these are unfocused because it looked better that way in photos.







My ring and pointer nails looks so creepy. I swear they don't look that creepy in real life. It's all because of that weirdo curving that long nails seem to get. I don't know why, but it pisses me off. Man, can I ever stop complaining and being negative? Probably not.

Later! =)

LA Girl Rock Star Addict

How's everyone doing? Today I did my nails with LA Girl Rock Star Addict. This color has to be in my top (insert number) reds, up there with Ruby Pumps. I have ChG Stroll too, which I think is a dupe to this. So that needs to be up there too. But back to Addict. It has such beautiful gold and red flake glitter in a maroon jelly base. Sometimes it looks like the dark red color and sometimes it looks like a burnt brown red, almost completely brown. I loves it.

Gah, my middle nail is taking forever! I know I keep filing it to shape it, but damn it, I'm impacient!


Close up *drools*

Orly Royal Navy

Royal Navy. What more is there to say about it that hasn't already been said? It's beautiful. Oh wait, that's already been said. This is 3 coats. I didn't have VNL like it shows in the photo. Which is weird cause it's supposedly not a jelly and jellies always seem to show up like that on camera on my long nails. I should probably just stop trying to describe colors and finishes and leave that to the polish queens. I'm just a lowly peasant. In fact, you should probably leave here since my photos of this suck and there are much better ones out there.

I'll shut up and stop boring you with my negativity, but first, how about a picture of the kitten?

I just wanna bite that little belly!
That's better. I did some white konad spiders over it after a couple days, though I don't have photos of that. Once again excuse the broken nubbin.



Now these next ones are really bad, but they show the shimmah!

Sorry for the glare.

Konad and VNS

VNS
Click for hugeness.


Riveter Rouge, Foxy and First Class Ticket
Emerald Fitzgerald, Goin' My Way? and Swing Baby
Ingrid, Frostbite, Royal Navy and Wild at Heart
WowSoCool
An early birthday gift from my what shall I call him, SO. =D He was too excited to wait. Awww. Sounds familiar though. Oh, back to Konad.



I didn't leave that plate all dirty like that. It was my thief of a sister.
My favorite image is the unicorn...NOT!

China Glaze Visit Me In Prism

I know I've already posted this before, but that was bad quality photos. I love holos and I don't know if it's just me, but they seem to accentuate my nails (not because they draw attention) and make them look so nice. I only have two holos. I need more holos in my life. Like now. I just wanna dive into that rainbow soup. Oh where was I? This is three coats without top coat.




Holy schnapps, f-ed up nail!

It's weird how my nails look so long in pictures. They don't look so long to me in real life.









Sparklez...


Which do you like best, the OMG or Kaleidoscope holos?

Claire's Fabulous/Funky

I get such a kick out of these Mood Polishes. I want the new ones! The pinks probably my least favorite though, just cause the funky french effect isn't as obvious as it is on the others.

Now you're probably wondering why I have a smiley face, or in this case a sad face, on my middle finger. (I'm a paint expert.) It's that that's the nail that tore and I had to glue back. Well, it decided to be an a*shole, so I just tore it off all the way. It's like nonexistent major nubbin nail and I don't want you all to see!

*Something to keep in mind: The warm color is a really bright neon pink, so imagine this pink but super bright.




You can see the funky french look better in this photo.
So, do the faces bother you? If so, I guess I'll try to do two or maybe three finger swatches. Or maybe wait til it grows out. I'd use my right hand, but the middle finger also broke a while ago on that hand. I guess my middle fingers have been used a lot...
