Some Personal Stuff

*sigh*

Sorry to be slacking again after actually making an effort to ramp back up and blog more regularly in recent weeks. This is unlike times in the past when I just got too busy, stressed or lazy to devote the attention I should to the blog. In the midst of preparing several posts on Labor Day, I lost my mother after a lengthy struggle with Alzheimer’s. This is a fate I would not wish on my worst enemy.

I was hoping to channel the anger/sadness/frustration into a incessant, obsessive nail painting, but it hasn’t quite worked out that way. I will continue to share here and there on social media and will get the blog back up and running as soon as possible. I hope to be back up and posting at a regular place, too, as I’ve got tons of untried polishes, stamping plates, vinyls and unprocessed photos.

I am thankful for everyone who visits my blog. I really enjoy sharing my love of polish with you all and I look forward to continuing to do so for a long time to come.

Different Dimension – Zarya

 

Happy Saturday, folks! I hope that your week is being kind to you and that you are finding time to relax or do something that you want to do. For those that work weekends, hope that your day is quick and easy! Today on the blog I have a polish from Different Dimension’s Shooting Star Collection called Zarya.

 

Dance All Night from Black Cat Lacquer

Today’s polish is Dance All Night from Black Cat Lacquer courtesy of January 2015’s A Box, Indied. For those not familiar, this is a monthly polish subscription being offered through October 2015, I believe, that includes nail polish from a group of indie polish makers, more information is available here. The boxes are themed and get very creative. January 2015’s theme was “New Debts, New Diets, NEW POLISH.” This polish and its array of color and sparkle brings to mind a New Year’s celebration for me. How about you? 

 

TGIF with Different Dimension’s Big Bang

TGIF, folks! The week has almost come to an end and I feel a bit of celebratory nail polish is in order, don’t you? For those of you who work on Saturdays thinking, “Screw you, I have to work tomorrow!”, you have my deepest sympathies. Rest assured that this post will be available to you any day of the week to celebrate YOUR Friday!  😉  Now let’s get to today’s polish.

LilypadLacquer – Indigo Love

 

Today for you I have a lovely holographic polish called Indigo Love from LilypadLacquer.  This polish is a calm yet vibrant indigo blue that is packed with linear holographic sparkle. As is normal with my experience with this polish maker, the formula is easy to apply and covers well.

A Box, Indied August 2015 – All Hail Holo!

Hello polish lovers! Today on the blog I am showcasing the beautiful polishes in August 2015’s A Box, Indied. This month’s theme is “All Hail Holo”, and the chosen items for this month’s box do not disappoint in this respect. There is also a great array of colors, some darker some brighter, that I am very happy to see. Now let’s take a look at what’s inside the box……

Just For Giggles

Happy Friday! I made a meme today and had to share. I think we can all relate to the elation shown while dreaming of getting your hands on a lemming.

That is all, as you were……

Orly Red Flare – Bargain find!

 

Howdy, folks! I know it’s been a while, and I appreciate those that stick around for my now and again blogging style lol. I’ve got so many polish pics taken and just need to put posts together. There are actually a handful in draft status that I will work on getting posted in the near future. The world needs to see my nails, and I am going to show them! Eventually.  But I digress, I am hear to talk about an amazing bargain I found, not my shortcomings as a blogger…….

Cousin Machin from LilypadLacquer

Today I have another LilypadLacquer from The Addams Family collection called Cousin Machin.

Pugsley from LilypadLacquer

Howdy, everyone! Yes, I’m actually alive. Sadly, I’ve been neglecting the blog because school, work and life got in the way. However, I am happy to let you know that I am almost done with school and will be able to devote more time to my true passion: nail polish!! At this point I have so many pics and untried polishes waiting their turn, so I’ve got plenty of backlog to create posts from. Can’t wait to get back into the swing of things. 🙂
