Nail of the day: The Sea's calling my name

My nails of the day are superrrrrrrrr pretty if you ask me :) haha
The finished nail: sorry it's not that great, but for some reason my ceiling fan works, but my light doesn't and the bulbs are new :/
 I started with OPI's start to finish as a base 
Then I used 'Beach Blue' M68 by santee as the base color
 
 The bottom of the color i used
 Over Beach Blue, I used 'Emerald' M22 on top for sparkle. I'm not sure why it's called emerald when it's blue glitter and emerald is usually green :?
 Bottom of the glitter 

AND tadaaaaaaa I'm done :)

Nail of the day

Who doesn't LOVE sparkles and leopard print? Well I certainly do so today i figured why not combine the two..this is what i came up with...


What I used:

Sally Hansen Complete Manicure in #460 thinking of blue as the main base
Then I took some blue glitter that I got in a set at Hong Kong Fashion in Chicago and sprinkled it on top of the wet blue color
Then on my ring finger of both hands I used this leopard print sally hansen effects polish strips...i couldn't get it to work well that is why the tips are chipped, for some reason the tips wouldn't stay attached to my nails...oh well for my first time i was happy
Lastly, I applied Orly's Won't Chip protective polymer top coat to seal in the glitter and make the leopard print shine since it had a matte finish

Budget Buys

Hello Hello!! Yes, I know it's been a while! its just that my a/c is broken it's been about 90 degrees outside which it means its about 150 degrees in my room and my computer room...luckily the a/c service repair man is on his way tomorrow!! Thank you God!!
On with it then...haha...so today I was bored and decided to go to the dollar store. I don't venture into one all that often, but whenever I do I'm always a happy camper. The goodies I found today were 7 books, a couple of polishes, and sum nail art polishes! yay!! 2 things I love in life.
The books I purchased may seem a bit juvenile, but hey they make me happy :)
1. Fringe Benefits (Valerie Frankel)
2. The Girls' Global Guide to Guys (Theresa Alan) this is the one I'm started
3. Aussie Rules (Jill Shalvis)
4. Girls Who Gossip (Theresa Alan)
5. The Romancipation of Maggie Hunter ( Jane Sigaloff)
6. Love, Meg ( C. Leigh Purtill)
7. One True Theory of Love ( Laura Fitzgerald)
