Pink Rose Manicure

Hello friends! It's been a while and I've missed you all! I've been so busy with renovating a new home and then moving into said new home. Let me just say that renovating, packing, moving and still working 40 hours a week does not leave any extra time for blogging and or keeping up with my nails. BOO! Now that I am all moved in I am back and ready to blog!
Check out my first free hand rose manicure!

Two coats of All Hail The Queen by butter London as a base,  Sinful Colors Nail Art polish for the stripes and a bubble gum pink for the rose "blobs" then a light baby pink for the rose detail. (I can't remember which pinks. sorry!)

China Glaze Techno for the middle and ring finger just because.  I love that glitter!

Thank you so much for reading!

All Hail The Queen


Hello there friends! All Hail the Queen is right! This is NOT a polish to lay around in my untried drawer just waiting to be swatched...I had to put it on ASAP!
 This is Brit Polish Company Butter Londons "All Hail The Queen', also know as "All Hail McQueen' and it's a gem! 

I saw this on Polish on Pinterest and I had to pick it up! I couldn't stop thinking about it once I saw it so the NEXT day I was at Ulta hoping they would have it and they did! BTW I am COPLETELY obsessed with Pinterest so if you are also a Pinnie add me! pinterest.com/alainamichele

AHTQ is a gorgeous holographic sandy biege. This is one of the prettiest neutral polishes I have ever seen and it was well worth the price!

I applied two coats of 'AHTQ'  and as my very first Butter London polish I give it two thumbs up for sure! I can't wait to try more from Butter.

Thank you so much for reading!

Aqua Teen Hunger Force Nails!

Hello friends! A few weeks ago I ordered some new nail art tools from Ebay and after waiting (im)patiently  they finally got here!  I have been wanting to do an Aqua Teen Hunger Force manicure for the longest time and now that I finally have the right tools..and LOTS of tooth picks, I did it! Check it out! (Pic heavy!!)

Ignignokt...Frylock..Master Shake...Meatwad..Err

If you aren't familiar with AQTHF it's a show on Adult Swim and it's Hilarious! It's got that so dumb and ridiculous that it's funny vibe. Completely up my alley! I have been watching this show since high school and I still laugh just as hard as I did when I first saw it. Yeah...I am not going to grow up anytime soon. :p

My favorite...Meatwad. What can I say, Meatwad make the money see..Meatwad get the Honeys G!

This manicure took me a long time but it was COMPLETELY worth it, I am so happy with the way it turned out.



The aftermath...in nail art tooth picks can be your best friend!



You know I couldn't forget Ignignokt and Err..so rude! I love the way these little guys talk completely reckless to people and just don't give an ef! Ha! What do you guys think of this manicure? Let me know I really appreciate your feedback. :)

Thank you for reading! Happy Friday! I hope you all have an awesome weekend!
