What I Actually Wore on NYE

Hey Lovelies!

I hope you're all settling back into your routines of school,work, whatever. I am. Today I am going to show you the mani that I actually wore on NYE. I have to say I think that my friends were a little disappointed because they wanted to see this mani in person, but oh well. This was a super sparkly and fun look.





Polishes Used:
-Sation - Miss Emo Shun All
-Amy's Nail Boutique - Ecopolo
-Gelous
-OTD

This lovely glitter polish is a custom glitter that Amy made available to the girls in one of my East Coast nail polish groups. It is jam packed with pink, purple, and blue glitters in numerous shapes and sizes as well as some awesome almost holo shimmer in there. Isn't this polish gorgeous!? This polish isn't for sale, but all of Amy's creations are great, and you can get them at her Etsy Store.

So since I told you all about my plans to attend the NYE Party Gras event, I figured I would share some photos from it with you. 

First, I made my own mask for the party with some supplies that I got from Michaels. I really like this mask its very me. 





Also, here are some pictures from the night! (Sorry for the picture quality but they were off my phone)

Mani's for Friends

As some of you may know, over the weekend we had a bunch of people over to celebrate the end of the season for my husband's softball team. As the day wore on, we decided to do a couple mani's. Two of my good girlfriends, Carly and Becky got mani's. I have done both of their nails before, if you don't remember that post, you can check it out here

Carly's Mani:



Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-Essie - Coat Azure
-Konad - White
-Plate: Konad - M71
-OTD

I had my stamping plates out because I was going to do a stamping mani that day for AIS and she said she would be interested in getting stamping so I let her pick the colors, stamps, positioning, etc. Isn't it cute?

Becky's Mani:



Polishes Used:
-OPI - Nail Envy
-Ulta - High Roller
-Kiss - Striper - Black
-Kiss - Striper - White
-Zoya - Pippa
-OTD

Becky had remembered this mani that I had done back when the Pens were in the Stanley Cup Playoffs so we re-created it on her with accent nails. I always love penguins and plan to try out a couple different "style" penguins in the winter season. 

The entire time I was doing the mani's for Carly and Becky, Carly's husband, Frank was sitting there watching baseball but also commenting and seemingly very interested in manis. LOL. So anyway, long story short, Frank ended up getting a Pittsburgh Pirates "Zoltan" accent pinky nail. Of all of my guy friends to do this, Frank would have been the last one I ever expected to agree to it, I'm pretty sure the lure of making it to the BLOG was all he needed to agree ;-)

He did let me know that he is aware he has bad cuticles and bites his nails, but I have to say I'm happy he did it, and it was a big hit during the rest of the party. :-)
