KOTD: Teal Flowers

Hello everyone! I am starting to get into more of a spring mood now that the sun is starting to shine again, so I wanted to do something cute. Sorry about the pointer finger, it smeared in the top coat stage. I used CHI Hot Ring Illusion Around Saturn and I stamped with China Glaze For Audrey using the m20 plate. Isn't it pretty, I thought that it turned out really well! Do you like it? Are you ready for warmer weather too?

KOTD: Ginger Flowers

Hi everyone! Today I am bringing you a simple Konad, but I love how it turned out, and I have decided that ginger and gold are bffs. This is one of my favorite Konad designs, I love the circles mixed in with the leaves of the flowers! I used OPI Ginger Bells, China Glaze Twenty-Four K, and the konad m20 plate to create this mani, how do you like it?

KOTD: Purple Tone-On-Tone

Hello everyone! Today I am bringing you another tone-on-tone manicure, and I am loving how it turned out! I have never used this particular flower pattern before so it was really fun to try! My boyfriend is loving the tone-on-tone manicures, I don't know why but he does! He is so sweet. Anyways, I used the m20 plate, Parlez-vous OPI?, and China Glaze Devotion. Do love how this turned out too?

Be sure to go and vote in the Seche/China Glaze Contest, I know that a lot of you were asking yesterday about it! Go and vote for your favorite! (I hope it's me!) :)

KOTD: Winter Wonderland

Hi everyone! I did this mani awhile back; you may remember that I entered it into a nail art contest. I love how it turned out though! I must say that I am REALLY sick of snow though. Spring, are you here yet?

I used OPI Russian Navy, OPI Alpine Snow, China Glaze Fairy Dust, and the konad m20 plate. I also matted it using Essie Matte About You Topcoat. I need to do slanted french tips more often, I like how it looks! What is the weather like where you live?

KOTD: Flakie Leaves

This will be my last leaf mani for the year (tear) as there are almost no leaves left here. Well, they are all under the snow. I hate snow. Seriously; I don't know why I voluntarily live in a place where it snows for half of the year. It snowed in September. It snows into April here. I don't ski, snowboard, ice skate or anything. I hate cold weather and I wish that I could just curl up in my 85 F (29 C) (yes, I do keep it that warm!) dorm room with a and not leave until the sun comes out again. They need to build some heated underground tunnels from the dorms to campus so that we don't have to deal with the cold. :)

I used OPI Merry Midnight as the base color, the m20 plate, and China Glaze Twenty-Four K. Sorry for the rant, I just really hate how cold I am! I hope that you find this mani cute! :)

Btw, for those of you who own MM, are you finding that you have an enormous amount of trouble getting the flakes off? They don't ever seem to want to come off for me!

KOTD: Vampy Flowers

Hi everyone! I actually really like how this turned out, I wish that it wasn't so dark outside so that I could capture its depth and sparkle better. I apologize for the indoor lighting!

I used China Glaze Lubu Heels as the base color and China Glaze Devotion as the stamping color with the m20 plate. I must rave about how Devotion konads, it comes out so crisp and opaque, and it is so easy to work with!

I really wish that I hadn't smudged this like, 5 minutes after I took this picture; I smacked my hand and messed up 4 of the 5 nails. I took this mani off and did a different one. Sigh...oh well! I may try this one out again in the future!

KOTD: Daytime Snowflakes

Hello! I apologize for the lack of cleanup, I was feeling lazy. I really like this winter mani, it is simple while still being interesting. I got lots of compliments on this mani! I did it while I am still excited about getting snow; because I know that I won't be much longer as it snows from November to April here! It is always so freaking cold!

I used China Glaze For Audrey, China Glaze Fairy Dust, OPI Alpine Snow and the Konad plate in m20. I really love this one!

KOTD: Snowing Too Soon

Hello everyone! Today is a Konadicure, but I don't think that it is very pretty. I was experimenting and it didn't turn out how I expected. I did this a few weeks ago on the first day that it snowed here. Last month. I don't want winter to come! It is WAY too cold outside!

I used OPI My Private Jet (the not amazing version) as the base color, and using the m20 plate I stamped in China Glaze For Audrey and OPI Done Out in Deco. I thought that particular stamp looked like a flower, but it looks more like a snowflake. I see another snowflake Konadicure in the future...

KOTD: Winter Contest Entry!

Hey everyone!!! Today I am posting my entry for Lisa's Winter Contest over at Nail Art World! If you haven't checked out her blog, please go do so because she is really inspiring!

I love how this turned out! I used OPI Russian Navy as the night sky, Sinful Colors Hottie as the glitter and China Glaze Devotion for the snowflakes with the Konad m20 plate. Do you love it too?!? This mani just makes me smile everytime I see it! Be sure to go and vote for the second place winner here! Go vote for your favorite, I know that my mani is def. not the best in the competition by a long shot!

KOTD: Blue Flowers and Vines

Hey everyone, I hope that you are all having a great week. This is a mani I sported last week, I used OPI Russian Navy as the base color and China Glaze For Audrey as the stamping color. I really like that For Audrey is a little sheer, it helps it blend into the tone of the base color better in my opinion. I used the m20 plate as well. Do you like it? :)

KOTD: My Very First Konad!

This is my first go with the Konad stamping system, and it is kind of hard at first! As you can see I had a hard time getting the images perfect, but I don't think that I did too bad for my first time! I have done a few more konads and I am much better at it now!

I used OPI You Don't Know Jacques as the base color and China Glaze For Audrey for the flowers, and I used a design from the m20 plate.
