Bahamian Escape Konad


Base: China Glaze "Bahamian Escape"

Pattern: Orly "Prince Charming"

Plate: Konad M60


I think this mani is cute, but I feel like maybe it needs something...I just can't figure out what. It just seems kind of blah. I decided to use this image for angled tips because it isn't big enough to use on my full nail and I'm definitely not good enough at lining up images for double stamping. I think it looks kinda cute that way though.

Purple Panic Fauxnad


Base: China Glaze "Purple Panic"

Pattern: Konad Princess Polish in Yellow

Plate: Fauxnad H1 from Chez-Delaney





Ugh. I've been sick for the last two days, so please excuse the sloppiness of my stamping. I'm a little shaky. Plus I've already managed to dent the polish on my index finger near my cuticle. Oops. That being said, I was in the mood for something kind of bright and cheery, so I chose these two colors. I think they're pretty cute and fun-looking together. I'm definitely over the dreary, crappy weather we've been having around here and this mani makes me think of spring/summer. ;)

St. Patrick's Day Konad


Base: China Glaze "Four Leaf Clover"
China Glaze "Cleopatra"

Pattern: Konad Princess Polish in White

Plate: M81



This is my mani for St. Paddy's Day. I'm sure "Four Leaf Clover" will be seen on a lot of nails this week, but I decided to go with it anyway. I think its the perfect color for St. Patrick's and its even appropriately named for it. I put a coat of China Glaze "Cleopatra" over it to liven it up a bit. There aren't really any Konad plates that have any clovers on them so I didn't have much to pick from. It was between this and M20. I went with M81 since its a new plate and hadn't used it yet.

Secret Peri-Wink-Le Konad



Base: China Glaze "Secret Peri-Wink-Le"

Pattern: Nicole by OPI "No Limits"

Plate: M77

I had totally forgotten that I even owned this color until L over at Bright Lights, Big Color used it in a post a few days ago. She did a way better job of capturing "Secret Peri-Wink-Le" though. I had no sun. :(

Leaf Him at the Altar Konad

Base: Sephora by OPI "Leaf Him at the Altar"

Pattern: Konad Princess Polish in White

Plate: M77

Hey everybody! I hope you're all having a great weekend. Mine's been a little crazy. Too much going on. I really wanted to go see Alice in Wonderland but haven't gotten a chance to yet. Maybe this afternoon if I'm lucky.

I wasn't real crazy about this week's konadicure. I did it on Friday and I'm itching to get it off. I can't quite put my finger on what it is about it that I don't like. I do think this color is beautiful though. Lately I'm having an extremely hard time trying to decide what I'm going to do for my next konadicures. I think I've just got too much to choose from. Too many colors, too many plates.

Gumdrop Fauxnad


Base: Orly "Gumdrop"

Pattern: Konad Princess Polish in Red

Plate: Fauxnad H20 from Chez-Delaney



I decided this week that it was time to trim my nails again. They start to curve under once they get to a certain length and I can't get them to stop no matter what I try. Drives me bananas. I think I do like them better at this length though. Anyway, I'm sure most of you already know this, but I realized that "Gumdrop" the most fantastic dupe of China Glaze "For Audrey" I've ever come across. To me, its almost an exact match.

Call Your Mother Fauxnad

Base: Sephora by OPI "Call Your Mother"

Pattern: Orly "Rage"

Plate: H22 From Chez Delaney


I couldn't decide on what I wanted to do with my nails this week so I grabbed "Call Your Mother" since I've had it forever and never used it, and decided to pair it with "Rage". I think the color combo is kinda pretty and not at all loud and overwhelming like my last mani. Lol. I like it, but I don't love it. Colors like "Call Your Mother" never look that great on me. :-( I don't know whether I'll keep this one on all week or not.
