You ladies and your gorgeous manis totally put my nubs to shame. It's well known that I lack the creativityYou made it! Welcome home. BTW I passed an accessory shop today that sells YOLO stuff. That makes me think of you!
gene, but I also broke 4 nails since my last post. That's pretty unusual for me so I'm taking vitamins and trying
to be mindful not to use my nails as tools. I've slowed my NP hauls significantly but I've been buying makeup in
the spirit of YOLO. Besides which, Anitacska
assured me that she's buying enough for two.
I did change my polish since my last post. In keeping with the green challenge in the theme makeup thread I'm
wearing Deborah Lippmann's Hanna, from the Girls collection. Green isn't the first color in anything that I
would reach for, but I really like this deep forrest green...even on these nubs of mine!

Fuzzy, MRV and Anitacska - gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous manis! That stamping is getting better and better Anitacska. Love both combos. MRV, Noxious Mire reminds me of The Princess Bride! Hi Med! *waves* I did get some drugstore polishes today. The silver holo was half price and it would have been unfriendly not to get it, right? The P2 is an exact dupe for Dior Bouquet.
Here's my mani: Illamasqua's Speckle mattified. With a tulip. *g*

How cool! I love Scrangie! And it is so true what that article says. I don't get the attraction to SSN though, it looks nice, but not that special. And for the Clarins one there's Fantasy Fire.Ahoy there Fuzzy!!! Very pretty manis...you must know by now that NPAs don't look at hands as much as
they do the nail color, shape & design.

Hmm, make that buying enough for twenty-two!
Thank you! I am very pleased with this fishy mani in particular!
Have you seen the new Models Own speckled polishes? I never got the Illamasqua ones, but I might get those.

Then they'll be really disappointed because I hacked off my nails lol I have some big housework to do in the next week. But they will be back because my special talent is keratin production!
Thank you

(this one is mine, I didn't pay anywhere near that!)
Dad said he'd look for a car pic next week. And that glitter nail polish(CN Living Water) came off really well... no soaking at all!

I like the colour combos, but probably will not get any of these. I'm not a big fan of TC glitters, and I have just gotten a few, so I don't need more.

I would not mind this pattern either. Just would not pay for it (or those polishes) that much!ouch $250? I thought it was bad when somebody paid $138 for this 50s sewing pattern-

Ok, here's FF Mushroom Cloud
I read that they don't guarantee the change beyond 6 months.

This is gorgeous! I have it too! I've heard 1 year for thermals. But that doesn't necessarily mean they'll go off, just they can't guarantee them beyond that time. Hey, I have 6-year-old lipsticks that are still as good as they were the day I bought them.Thanks, Anneri! I don't know about The Princess Pride. Nice haul & a lovely mani. I think I have not worn this one yet.
Why do I understand everything they are talking about?

MRV! You really really should either watch or read The Princess Bride. It's a classic!
Go!

Ooh, cool! The UK in springtime is lovely.Yes I have! They look good - we can't get them over here though, but the hubby and I are planning our Easter holiday this weekend and maybe it'll be to the UK. We'll see!
Me neither. I remember when Chanel's Byzance collection came out for FNO a few years ago those item went for insane amounts of money on ebay. I remember seeing the quad for about 400$?!
I love MU like the next MU addict, but enough's enough! lol
Thank you Fuzzy! I love those designs. Do you sew? That's a talent I'd love to have!

Those cupcake Kiko polishes look cute.
I've just ordered 3 KBShimmer polishes, one permanent and two spring colours. I've also ordered the new Wing Dust polish (These Broken Wings) which is like Steel Town Girl, just in light blue.

I sew a bit, I've made a few things (skirt, pants, pillowcases- some other stuff I don't remember!) most of my sewing is repairs on the vintage clothing I have and that's mostly by hand. I would like to make a few more things and I do have a pattern ready to go and all the fabric and thingies I need for it, but all that stuff (except the pattern and machine) is at my Grandma's house. I'll have to get it later in the spring... if I can find where my Mom put it.Yes I have!
