Good evening, ladies :)

Just saw a pic of the Essie Resort 2014 collection:
http://twicsy.com/i/S3Utxe

Looks nice, but nothing too exciting, IMO.

And I didn't even notice we already had the Chanel summer collection info. The polishes all sound really good, I might need a few. Definitely skipping the spring ones now in favour of those.

I just broke a piece off my tooth, so I have to try to get that fixed on Monday, eugh. But I won a nail polish from Artdeco, so I guess that makes up for that a little bit, lol.

Anitacska, I thought the blue polish looks really cool. Kinda like those layered MAC lipglosses.

It's so quiet around here without Medgal & Kimibos.

Congrats on winning the Artdeco polish! Yay!
Don't worry too much about the tooth, I did something similar a few years ago and it wasn't bad at all when they fixed it.

I won a set by Smashbox a few days ago! Online Advent calenders ftw!

The Essies look a bit boring? I guess I'm spoiled by all the indies.


Anitacska, congrats on getting your car back!!! Enjoy!
All your polishes look awesome. Did you contact LLarowe because of the wonky looking one? No idea how they seperate like that, even my own homemade ones have never done that!

Here's a-england Her Rose Adagio. I used studs like this for the first time, it really is incredibly easy.



Speaking of studs (

Sorry about mentioning Doctor Who again!

Here's my little haul from Edgy Polish:

IndigoBananas Anansi and With a Spoon in It, Different Dimension Slow Invasion (Doctor Who again - I can't help it, I'm a fangirl), Different Dimension Laissez le Bon Temps Rouler (GWP) and CrowsToes Hellhound.




And here's something special. A new polish I made on my own. It's a nude base with small red and gold holo glitters and larger hex glitters in rosegold and caramel. I really love it because it's not an in-your-face-polish, elegant, but not boring at all. (left - direct sunlight, right - in the shade)

Nice haul and lovely polish! You could start a business with them!

No, I haven't contacted Llarowe, but I might. It's not worth it sending it back, but maybe I'll get a refund anyway? I'll try.

I've just been so busy, which is why I'm up in the middle of the night frosting cookies. Seriously. I probably shouldn't have had so much to drink on thursday at the neighbour's 'party'. Wine and beer and liqueur will get you! LOL Spent the afternoon sleeping and then I was baking cookies and checking on my brother's flight coming in on FlightAware, of course late due to mechanical delay, my mom was texting me from near the airport and I was telling her the plane's position and when it landed. Who knows how quickly he got through customs though... they probably had to scan his huge lumberjack beard for contraband LOL My hands are so dry and busted looking, I hope I can fix them up in time for my xmas mani!

Lovely manis everyone!

I think bcteagirl was going home for the holidays, I'm not sure what day though.

Back to cookies!

Uh-oh! Wine and liqueur is not a good combination! That's what made me sick on Saturday night, lol.

I'm sure it's a very busy time for us all, but I still like taking a minute to check Specktra every so often, mail polish is my new love and I also really love this thread, so many lovely, fantastic, sweet people!

Christmas mani time! Liquid Sky Lacquer Cotton Headed Ninny Muggins over Zoya Holly. For someone who has 1600+ polishes it was really difficult to find a matching base for this colour. I guess I don't normally wear greens much...

and it wasn't just regular liqueur it was tequila coffee liqueur... so it was extra fun LOL I did manage to get up the stairs and around the hall without falling on my face!

I've finished frosting, I'll test one for quality control in a bit
greengrin.gif
And now I just have one last thing to bake! I hope I have enough brown sugar because the weather people are saying we could get 20-30mm of freezing rain
icon_eek.gif


I'll probably have a bit more time now that the cookie part is done, there's so many bowls and trays to wash with those. The squares I'm making are very easy and everyone loves them... I hope I can figure out how to not burn them in this oven. I haven't made them here before. The cookies I made I had to bake 50°F lower temperature than the recipe said! silly tiny oven!

Hahaha! I couldn't even make it upstairs for a while, I was throwing up in the toilet downstairs for ages (having already thrown up in the car - at least it was the courtesy car, not my own
girlhaha.gif
), and as soon as I made it upstairs I was puking in our bathroom! Oh dear. My poor husband even gave me a bowl to throw up into when I went to bed, only to have to get up and empty it out after I was sick again, lol. It was mostly just water by then thankfully. But hey, that's marriage for you.

Oh my! No barfing for me- this time anyway... but that night of yours sounds like that time I was drinking straight vodka... that was a mistake. I can't even look at Belvedere after that! I just woke up feeling queasy in the middle of the night, that took AGES to go away. uhhhgg.

Yep, that's what it was, vodka, some other liqueurs and some wine. Ugh.

Hey ladies! Long Time no see! My fault and stupid specktras too I can not click on any of my thread subscriptions on my profile page. I can only click on the threads at the bottom of the page, and I have t seen the np thread in awhile. Sorry to hear you ladies had too much fun drinking :/ I HATE throwing up, I actually have major anxiety about it and when I know I'm gonna be sick I FREAK out. Can't be near anyone getting sick :/ scared to have kids lol ( morning sickness and then thy are always sick lol). I do not drink for this reason. I ordered two girly bits last night kinda mad I missed the discount but oh well. I also ordered Two group custom CBLs! I'm a CBL addict group on fb. One is blue called piece of me and the other is purple called feelings, whoa whoa whoa! Can't wait and there's going to e a new orchid one next month! Got my enchanteds and love them all but dime Piece is my fav. Kinda disappointed in holiday, not what I was expecting I don't remember when I last posted but I've bought some of the new a England's , a few elevations, and 12 CBLs. My wishlist at llarowe is bought except for picture polishes. I am def gonna need to slow down on purchases starting in jan so I hauled my ass off lol Hope all is well with you bunch I'm gonna go back and catch up. Oh ya I also spent many hours last week making polish ornaments!!! Will try to post pics soon

So the freezing rain is building up, I still have power so far but it flickers a bit- it went out for a couple seconds a few times. The maple tree outside my window is starting to look like a weeping willow. They salted my street and I saw tons of huge flashes in the sky towards the east and then two huge green flashes right nearby and surging sounds... ughhh. hey, I'm in luck someone caught a video of the type of thing I'm seeing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FX087tWVSc8





when the wind blows it makes eerie cracking noises *shudder*

I'll take more photos when it gets light out. may or may not be able to post them though.

Fuzzy, that doesn't sound and look good. Did your brother's plane arrive yet? Stay safe! Hi Naughty! :wave: Anita, your christmas party story sounds too funny. I read the last sentence aloud (that's what marriage is for) and my hubby looked very sceptically at me lol! I got my Llarowe order yesterday, I was so happy, because right now I'm on my way to my parents' place for the holidays. I managed to snap a quick pic:

I swatched them really quick and have to say that I like the CBL a lot. One coater with a great brush - I see myself stalking with y'all in the future for restocks! Oh dear.

Yuck, that doesn't sound good. I hate freezing rain, snow and generally everything cold. It was raining here all day yesterday, but luckily it's sunny this morning. Much nicer.

Hahaha, well once you've been married for nearly 15 years and had 3 children, you've pretty much seen everything and have no dignity left anyway, so a bit of puking really shouldn't faze my husband or me!
lol.gif


Nice haul. Which CbL is that, Oxen?

I ended up ordering a few Darling Divas and Dollish Polishes yesterday, the DDs from her Etsy site as she had a few LE old polishes up and she gives you a free polish with every order, and the DP from Llarowe with 40% off.

January will be a quiet month for me for sure, I need to really stop buying nail polish. There's a few bits of make up I want to get in January (Naked 3, some Mac extra dimension stuff, Guerlain spring collection, etc.), so I best not spend much on nail polish as well!

Enjoy your time at your parents! xxx

Hi NaughtyP!

It's weird about how Specktra works fine for some poeple and not so well for others. I've had absolutely no issues with it.

About the CbL FB group. I know it's a closed group, but do you have to be invited or can you just ask to join? I've asked, but haven't been approved. Don't suppose you could invite me please? You know who I am on Facebook.

I'm still waiting for my Enchanteds, my Black Friday Llarowe order, my Darling Diva and Liquid Sky orders from Cyber Monday. Really bored of waiting now.
