Street Chic Flowers

HAPPY OCTOBER FRIENDS! I love this month, the mean Arizona heat is finally breaking so you can actually go outside during the day and not have to worry about melting.  Anyway, check out this fun "konadicure" I did using a great fall color from China Glaze!

China Glaze Street Chic from the Metro Collection. 

This brown beauty if from the Uptown set.

                   This is two coats and the coverage is great but honestly one thicker coat would work also.

Major flash here.

Using Konad Plate M70 with Finger Paints Papier Mache to brighten it up and make it more girly.

Thank you so much for reading. I hope you all are having a fabulous month so far!

Matte Monday!

Hello Cupcakes! Welcome to a New installment on The Brrrds Nest..Matte Monday! Instead of a Manic Monday why not have a Matte Mani...sounds way better right?  Check out this manicure I did with O.P.I You Don't Know Jaques! It's a pretty Brey (brown/grey). I love how tame it is. It stands out in its own calm way.

Two Coats of the color and then one coat of Essie's matte about you top coat.

I really don't use my Matte top coats enough..I've got like 16 of them so why not! I love the effect on this color.

I added a little Flower to jazz it up. I used a dotting tool..super simple.

Thanks for reading! Happy Monday!

Found a New Prince Charming...Sorry Boyfriend.

Hey Beauties! The other day I was at Sally's Beauty Supply and they were having an Amazing Sale on all Orly polishes.. I picked up a few and may go back for more tonight! I found this color which is unlike any that I have. It is beautiful! Prince Charming is a calm Brown/Grey or "BREY" creme.

Orly Prince Charming

Two coats. Oh and I trimmed my nails down..Not sure if anyone can tell. They were getting outrageous. It took me 5 minutes to put socks on my kid!

It's so pretty...It doesn't need a design but it will look so good with the right design and color combination..




I know I said that I don't like brown but I may be changing my tune from now on because this color is GORGE!! Look at me expanding ha ha!  Thanks for reading and Following if you have! OH! and FOUR more days to enter my first giveaway CLICK HERE for info and to enter if you haven't already!
