Day 12: Purple Party


base- OPI's Make a change
top coat- ORLY's gold glitter

Day: 11 Fail


Well I hate the look I tried but with 365 looks a few were going to be sour. I used OPI's Make a change as a base and the sally hansen's crackle overcoat in ink splatter. I think the purple, which on its own is a great color was much to dark for the black. Oh well! Next time.

Day 10: TLU Crackle


I did it, I broke down I got Sally Hansen's Crackle Overcoat in Ink Splatter! It is SO COOL! I'm going to get it in other colors soon I just know it. I out it over the Yelloe Hook Up from yesterday to create a TLU vibe.

Day 9: Golden Ticket


I found a gorgeous yellow in the San Francisco Airport. It's Orly's Hook up, a yellow with pearl finish. Its time to get into the TLU state of mind.

Day 8: Diva Red


I used NYC's Big Apple Red Creme as a base with a top coat french cut of Sally Hansen's Red Carpet. You can't really tell in this photo but the red carpet has a beautiful sparkle to it that reminds me of Dorothy's red slippers.

Day 7: Penny for Your Thoughts


So I used a charlotte russe nail polish but it has no name! So I'm going to call it copper penny. I reminds me of the fall when the leaves change... so like November in Texas. :)

Day 6: Pin Up Red


I used NYC's Big Apple Red Creme, two coats and go. Its a quick color pop that is great for a night out. I was in a rush so nothing to fancy.

Day 3: You Look So Good in Blue


So I'm trying to get good at doing designs so I'm going to start with lines. From the base its NYC's Skin Tight Denim Creme, then Sally Hansen's Pacific Blu and lastly with ally Hansen's Mint Sorbet.

Day 2: Newspaper Print


So I was exploring google looking for cute ideas and I found this newspaper nail look that I just loved. It screams Communications/ English major.

You need:
a light colored base polish
a news paper clipping
vodka or rubbing alcohol
clear top coat polish


I used NYC French White tip as my nail color (2 coats). After about 30 minutes of dry time I dipped my nails in vodka (I'm sure rubbing alcohol would work to but I do not have any) and pressed a cutting from a stranded newspaper onto my nail then peeled it off quickly. It should leave the ink from the print on your nail. Finish off with clear polish, I used Sally Hansen's Invisible or else the ink will rub off on your clothes.

And Ta Da! Day 2 is complete and badass.

Day 1: Watermelon Fun


I wanted a fun summer look that reminds me of my high school hometown, McDade with its famous (at least to us) Watermelon Festival ! I used NYC's Big Apple Red Creme as a base with a top coat of Sally Hansen's Red Carpet. The watermelon rind is Sally Hansen's Emerald City and the seed's are Sally Hansen's Black Out.

365 Days of Color

The quickest way to brighten up any girls day. Its amazing how a relaxing 20 minutes can bring a pop of color and happiness to your life. I'm taking the next year to paint my nails different, everyday. Cheers!
