LAYERED LOOK: LIPPMANN - TODAY WAS A FAIRYTALE

Here is TWAF layered over a dark blue jelly. I liked this look, but I didn't like that the cornflower blue of the Lippmann disappeared on this. This was super sparkly in real life folks!!








LIPPMANN - TODAY WAS A FAIRYTALE

This is the second Lippmann polish I told you about. Like I said before, not sure of a release date for this just yet, and I *think* it is part of her Holiday collection.

I LOVE THIS!!! I really liked Boom Boom Pow, but I LOVE this one! It is really pretty unique. I tend to want to call this sort of a cornflower blue with silver glitters. Other times it seems to look more gray than cornflower blue. This one was a tad bit more buildable than Boom Boom Pow, but not much more. But I thought it looked cool with that weird colored blue base that I just fell in love with it's sheer version - shocker, I know! LOVE LOVE LOVE! I did 3 coats below.

I do have a layered look I did with this one for my NOTD that I will post for you today.





(Sorry forgot a name label pic, but will have one in my next post!)

LIPPMANN - BOOM BOOM POW

I'm so excited to bring you all swatches of Boom Boom Pow! Another awesome chunky glitter to come from Deborah Lippmann! Boom Boom Pow has different sized gold glitters and shimmer suspended in a clear jelly formula. While this color isn't buildable (I'm wearing 4 coats in my pictures) it still looks pretty awesome on it's own. BBP could be layered over another base color to really make it sizzle! I am going to try layering this over several different colors tonight to see what sort of combo's I come up with.

I'm not exactly for sure when this is set to be released yet, but I *think* it is part of their Holiday collection, which consists of another color - Today Was A Fairytale, which I will have swatches of later today.

I'M NOT DEAD YET

***UPDATE!! I JUST GOT MY FIRST WELCOME BACK ANON. (OF COURSE) HATE MESSAGE TODAY!! GOD IT'S GREAT TO BE BACK AND BE LOVED BY SO MANY, LOL! LIKE IT OR NOT, I WILL BE BACK, CAN'T WAIT :)



I know I have been MIA for a looooong time now and I'm sorry. I have just had a lot of stuff going on in my life right now and doing nails just hasn't been in the mix. I will be back, but I'm sorry I can't give you all an exact date, I'm hoping by the end of the month things will be back to normal around here. Wanna hear a quick list of all that has been eating away at my time??? Ok, well here goes:
car trouble (without a car for almost a week!!)
Computer down at work
School starting
Little starting football
Little's Birthday (Today!! He is 8!!!)
My Mom's birthday (on the 9th, a milestone #60!!!)
Baking about 10 dozen cookies for my Grandma

is that enough to grant me a reprieve?? God I hope so!

Anyway, I miss you guys but I promise I WILL BE BACK :) In the mean time, here are a few family pics.


Little at Baconfest in Enid - plates of bacon and bottles of beer, does it get any better??? Top that with a free pig nose and it's simply Heaven!


Nanners tricking you all into thinking he isn't a hellion on wheels!!


Little's first day of second grade.


The double cross peace sign must be Little's signature pose this year!
