Cling Wrap & Half Moons.

I Finally got around to creating a Half Moon Manicure!!! I think that for my first time It didn't turn out so bad. However having to wait until my base color dries so then I can put the circular reinforcements in order to create the half moon can be a little annoying, because if It's not completely dry it literally rips off the base color, so beware! The Color I used for the bottom half of the nail Is China Glaze-Flip Flop Fantasy, I waited a bit and applied one thin coat of Sally Hansen Honey Whip on top of flip flop fantasy and used the cling wrap technique and painted some triangles with some acrylic paints.
 BTW: That shade below is not an accurate color of Flip Flop Fantasy In real Life it's a beautiful bright neon pink not A coral like it shows below

Polish Used
-Main Color-Butter London-The Full Monty(3 coats)
-China Glaze-Flip flop fantasy ( 2 coats)
-Sally Hansen-Honey whip 
-Acrylic paints( Black & white)
See how much difference lighting makes, my hands don't look as terrible as the post below lol, 
however guess what!! today I sold my Canon Xsi! now i'm in search for a real nice camera that takes great macro shots do you ladies have any suggestions?

Summer Challenge-Day 11(Seashells)

Hey Girls On  July 21st was Day 11 Of the Summer Challenge, so this is a sorta quick post to show my manicure for the theme which that day was Seashells. I don't know why but this theme gave me such a hard time I just didn't know what to do!!! As a last resort I opted out for something simple which reminds me A lot of the Little Mermaid Maybe it's because of the Color Scheme. On another Note I'm Sorry for the crappy sorta dark pictures I didn't have great lighting coming in through my window today (it was a rainy day) Also you might notice that the nail on my ring finger is slightly shorter and yes its because it broke ugh(today is not my day ) anyways here is my Seashell Manicure mixed in with starfish and little waves on the tips.
Before I forget, I made a Pinterest! and I would love if you head to my page and join me :) just click on the button on my side bar if you would like to follow my page :]

Polishes Used:
-Sally Hansen-The Real Teal (2 coats)
-Sally Hansen-Lime Llights (1 coat over the 1st polish)
-Sinful Colors-Pearl Harbor( 1 coats Iridescent glitter)
-The rest is acrylic Paints.
P.s I think I am Going to skip on the favorite Beach Memory Theme Because In all honesty I have None lol Hope you guys don't Mind :) However The rest of the girls do have some awesome Manis For you To See

Summer Challenge-Day 9(Favorite Summer Memory)

I Have been slacking on posting for the summer Challenge again! :( I'm sorry Girls, however I have been seeing and commenting all of the awesome things you ladies have been posting!. Anyways as you can tell I have made some minor changes to my blog such as a whole new color scheme and a new background and I also Enlarged most of my pictures. Now I need your opinion should I have kept them small or is the larger images a better option? Okay Well Nail  time the Theme for Day 9 of the Kaki And Theodora Summer Challenge was Favorite Summer Memory.

My Favorite Summer Memory: My Prom
June 8,2011 was the day of my High school Senior Prom and let me tell you it was one of the most stressful things I have ever planned. To begin I had started shopping for my prom dress a month and a half before prom so I was on a bit of a deadline. I went to about 10 stores but could not find anything to my liking, until one day I entered this little boutique and fell in love with a Bedazzled Tutu, I tried it on and bought it. However later that day I began to have second thoughts so I went back to the store and returned it and tried about 20 dresses more. Unsatisfied I began to search online for something I really like and Stumbled into this beautiful Tony Bowls Coral Gown That was simple but had beautiful Swarovski Crystals Just below the bust line and I made it mine. Regardless of the before prom stress,Prom Night Turned out to be one of the most special and memorable nights of that summer.

This Manicure Is Based On My Prom Dress
Polish Used-Sally Hansen Casting Call (3 coats)
My Prom Photo With My Boyfriend :)
I hope you like this Bedazzled Manicure :)

Summer Challenge-Day 8(Beach)

Hey Dolls, Day 8 of the summer challenge! and the theme is beach. I don't know about you But when I go to the beach it is nothing beautiful lol in reality the beaches here in NYC tend to be dirt, full of people and of course full of seagulls hoping someone will feed them, Lucky for them when I go to the beach I am the one that throws them a piece of whatever I am eating so that is what I based My Manicure on
I started with 2 coats Of Sinful Colors-Cinderella ( gosh that polish is a beauty) and then I created a Gradient with two other blues and then drew one single Seagull standing in the sand :)
Maybe next time I Will do the bird on just one entire nail lol
well don't forget the rest of the girls!

Summer Challenge-Day 3(Summer Song)

Beautiful day here in NY at the moment I am preparing to go camping today! i'm pretty excited since I really love camping its a nice getaway from the loud noises in the city. Anyways today is day 3 of the summer challenge the theme is Favorite summer song. Honestly I had to go with one that is so annoying but so damn catchy! it's called Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen. The catchy chorus goes something like this "Hey I just met you, and this is crazy but here's my number,so call me Maybe"
                            Here is the Video Just In case you want to get this song stuck in your head!

anyways here is my interpretation of this song :)


Sorry for the pictures they could have been a lot better I was in a little bit of a rush, so I fell a little short but these ladies sure didn't ! Their stuff is incredible check them out
