Frenzy Polish: Winchester

*Purchased by Me*


Hi guys! Last night was the season premier of Supernatural! I'm still catching up. I've got seven episodes of season nine to finish, and then season ten, but I'm still super excited! I just can't believe I waited so long to watch it! I was always scared it would be too scary for me (I'm a big ol' chicken), but other than the first season, it's not been too bad.

In celebration of last night's premier, I want to share a polish from Frenzy Polish's TV Frenzy collection - Winchester!

Digital Nails: Unicorn Soup

*Purchased by Me*


Happy Friday! I'm so glad it's the weekend. I've been waiting for this day since... oh, say Monday! I don't even care that the weekend is going to be a complete washout due to Hurricane Joaquin. I'm just praying that my garage doesn't flood too much. My husband moved some sandbags out in front of it. When he went out and checked it this morning after a night of rain, he came in saying "There's not as much as I was expecting".... so fingers crossed!

Today, I've got the second polish from the Unicorn Cahoots collaboration between Ellagee and Digital Nails. Yesterday, I shared "Sir Twinkle Toes" from Ellagee, and now it's time to share "Unicorn Soup" from Digital Nails.

Philly Loves Lacquer: The Best Day of the Year

*Purchased by Me*

Hi guys! I hope you all are doing great! Sorry for no posts last week... I ended up catching a cold or something, and spent the week in a cold medicine fog. I'm doing much better this week!

Today I want to share Philly Loves Lacquer's contribution to the February Beauty Quartet Box. I know it's been awhile since it came out, but the latest Beauty Quartet box launches today so I thought it would be a good time to share a polish from a previous box!

Digital Nails: Secret Space Outlaw

Hi guys! I'm still feeling quite fatigued, and still haven't narrowed down exactly why, so it's going to be a super quick post again today. I've got another polish from the Definitely Not Cute collection from Digital Nails to share with you today.

Nerd Lacquer: Quasar

*Purchased by Me*


Hi guys! I am soooo glad it's Friday! My husband and I have been watching Deep Space Nine, and we're coming to up to the end of the series. I think we have like 5 more episodes left. I didn't watch it when it originally aired, but I'm really enjoying it. I always hate the ending of series... it's so bittersweet. I don't know about you, but I tend to grow to care about the characters!  

Today, I've got Quasar from Nerd Lacquer for you which was part of the Spaaaaace collection. I picked this up in the one of the more recent restocks.

Digital Nails: What Color is this Polish?

*Purchased by Me*


Hi guys! I recently participated in my first RedditGift exchange. I'd been wanting to join, but kept missing the deadlines, but when I saw that one of them this round was Nail Polish, I knew that I had to join in! I've been seriously stalking the gallery page to see what my giftee says about her gift!

So a few months ago, a certain ugly dress swept the internet. Twitter and Facebook were abuzz with with debates over its color - blue & black or white & gold. I personally saw it both colors, and that drove me crazy!

The infamous dress

As all of the craziness was going on, Raph from Digital Nails created two polishes that resembled the dress. She'd initially made them just for herself, but shared swatches of them in a fan group, and most of the members wanted to buy them! She ended up mixing up a batch of each color, and I was lucky enough to snag them both.  Today, I'm going to share the white/gold version of the polish.

Cult Nails: Lime Light

*Purchased by Me*


Hi guys! Earlier this year, one of my favorite brands, Cult Nails, announced that they were closing. I was saddened by this news because Cult Nails polishes were some of the first that I discovered, and I was never disappointed with the quality of them. About a month or so before the liquidation announcement came, Cult Nails released a LE Secret Collection. Of course I picked it up! The collection ended up being a shimmery blue, a waxy green, and the gorgeous glitter that I am going to share with you today!

Mystery Polish Time!

*Purchased by Me*


Happy Friday guys! I hope you are staying cool where you are!  Luckily the temps here haven't reached as high as they forecasted earlier this week, but it's still way to hot for me! 

While I tend to shy away from big polish boxes that are a complete surprise, I do like smaller surprises.  There's a big difference between the risk of being disappointed over a $50 polish box vs. a single $10 polish. One of my favorite makers, Pahlish, often has mystery polishes on her site. Sometimes, it is mystery holos or mystery Bespokes. I have never been disappointed with any of the ones that I've received. Today, I want to share my most recent mystery polish from Pahlish that I purchased in March 2015.

Lucky 13 Lacquer: No Power in the 'Verse Can Stop Me

*Purchased by Me*


Hi guys! Today's polish, "No Power in the 'Verse Can Stop Me" from Lucky 13 Lacquer is inspired by Firefly - a fabulous little television show that was too awesome for its time, and was cancelled too soon (TOO SOON!) Luckily you can catch the episodes on Amazon Prime or Netflix (and if you haven't watched it, I really suggest that you do! It's a space western!)

Digital Nails: Timey Wimey

*Purchased by Me*


Hi guys! I hope you had a fabulous weekend. I had to take Mr. Bloo back to the vet. He lost another pound, and his weight has dropped to just 6 pounds. His vet is completely perplexed as his kidney seem to be working fine, and his thyroid tests came back normal. Since he had his front teeth pulled, his weight has just been dropping. I'm hoping that it's just because he had to switch from dry food to wet food, and he cannot graze throughout the day like he has done his whole life. The vet suggested that I sit out a buffet of different foods to see what worked. He nibbled throughout the day on his wet food when it was fresh, a little dry food, and dry food soaked in water. (He wouldn't touch the bowl of chicken broth or dry food in chicken broth).  So I'm going to keep the things that he liked out, and hopefully that will get his weight to stabilize. Otherwise, they are going to give him an appetite stimulant and do chest x-rays.

Enough about my sick kitty saga... Today I have an awesome glitter topper from Digital Nails - Timey Wimey. It is based on one of my favorite Doctor Who episodes (Blink).

The Ladies of Peter Pan duo from Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer & Sweet Heart Polish

*Purchased by Me*


Greetings!  My favorite vacation spot is Disney World.  My husband and I have been there many, many different times.  One of my favorite rides is Peter Pan's Flight.  I don't get to ride it nearly as much as I'd like because the wait times are typically insane for it!  My love of this ride was what initially drew me to The Ladies of Peter Pan, the collaboration duo from Sweet Heart Polish and Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer.
