OPI Glints of Glinda + Emily de Molly Stamping

Hi everyone,

How are your weekends going? Swimmingly I hope! It's getting bloody hot in Brisbane and it's still spring, so summer should be fun . . . For today's post I have a neutral sort of look going that I dressed up with a bit of stamping and Swarovski crystals. Enjoy!

Textured Polish Nail Art - Essence Gothic Gold + OPI Solitaire

Hello!

After my last post with OPI Solitaire, I did a lil bit of nail art to jazz up my mani, keeping with the textured theme of course! I quite like the textured polishes so pairing colours together is quite fun :)

Mani Revamp: OPI German-icure + Gold Stamping with Moyou London

Hello guys and gals.

I had this mani on for less than 24 hours before I stamped on it. I had the urge to do something to my nails so rather than take it all of and do another colour I pulled out the trusty stamping plates.

OPI German-icure Swatches + Review

Hi everyone!

Today I have a new polish for you, the story behind where I found it is quite interesting! This polish is OPI's German-icure from the Fall 2012 Germany collection. This my favourite polish of that collection and I'm pretty stoked I got my hands on it!

Mani Revamp: Silver Triangle Accents Featuring OPI Push and Shove

Hi guys,

After posting this mani which used CG's Secret Periwinkle and a holo topcoat, I wanted to spice it up a bit, so I drew inspiration from a mani I saw a couple of days earlier. I present triangle accents featuring OPI Push and Shove.

OPI Sheer Tints Nail Art + Review

Hi guys,

So today I have the OPI Sheer Tints and a little nail art i did with them. Originally i wasn't too thrilled about this collection, but the more I saw of what people were doing with them, the more I wanted them. And a friend mentioned that the mini sets were available at David Jones, so I hightailed it over there to grab one. Yes I broke my no buy *hangs head in shame* but on the other hand I have my very own set of Sheer Tints!

Femme Fatale Mercury Rain Review - My First Indie Glitter Bomb!

Hi guys!

How was your weekend? I'm currently in exams and blogging/nails stuff is really an excellent form of procrastination, don't you think? After posting about OPI What's a Little Rain Forest?, one of the new liquid sand polishes from the Brazil collection, I decided that I would layer one of my newer acquisitions over it. I present Femme Fatale's Mercury Rain.

OPI Can't Find my Czechbook + Moyou Stamping

Hi guys!

Today i have more Moyou London stamping for you. This could go on for a while as I received 4 new plates a few days ago. Finally got my hands on Explorer 03, it was sold out for a while. I gained inspiration for this mani from here and here. Those girls did an amazing job with their stamping!

Mani Revamp! OPI Barre My Soul + Moyou Stamping

Hi guys!
I *finally* got my XL stamper in the mail after it was sent to Russia by mistake. I have no idea, don't ask, all I know is that instead of putting Australia on the parcel, they put Russian Federation. Not even the same name. I'll leave the XL stamper review to another day, but I can tell you right now that it works a treat. Using my Moyou Fairytale Plate 10 I came up with this;

Interview Nails: OPI Barre My Soul Review + Swatches

Hi guys,

I'm slowly getting through my backlog, I end posting twice when I get the chance to do it at all. So for today I have the manicure I wore to a job interview. I'm in my last semester at uni, so now is crunch time in terms of job applications. Obviously I can't wear what I would usually wear to an interview, I don't think the recruiters would understand my nail polish addiction. I decided to wear OPI Barre My Soul from the NYC Ballet Soft Shades Collection. Not my usual colour but I didn't want to go without either!

A Mystery OPI Polish + Studs

Hi guys,

Today I have for you a manicure that I'm quite excited about, mostly because I haven't done anything like this before. I can't remember if I mentioned that I bought a wheel of studs off of Ebay for some nail art, but they arrived about a week ago and I have been excited to use them. This is the look I came up with, quite weather appropriate considering it's dropped about 15 degrees here overnight!

OPI DS Classic Swatches and Review

Hi guys,

Today I have another polish for you to look at. It's a holo and it's a nice champagne/neutral colour as well! I present to you Classic, from OPI's DS range. Ta da!

Zoya Blaze Swatch and Review + OPI The Living Daylights

Hi guys,

Today I have 2 new polishes for you to look at. This is after having several failed manis during the week. I may still post one of them but I wasn't too happy. Long story but I had a stick on tattoo fail and it was all downhill after that. For today's mani I have another Zoya and an untried OPI.

DIY Water Marbling Decal/Appliqué Tutorial

Hi guys,

I have another nail polish post for your today, these are so much easier to do than the sewing ones unfortunately, as they're much quicker. After getting a bit bored with my mani this week, I decided to add some water marbling accents. Unfortunately I didn't really like the finished result but I did catalogue the process so here goes.

Polish Me Silly (Lush Lacquer) Orange You Sweet Review + Swatches

Hello!

Today I have my current manicure using one of my first ever indie polishes. I bought Lush Lacquer (now known as Polish Me Silly) Orange You Sweet from Femme Fatale cosmetics back in January. It was in their sales section so I think  scored it for about $5 for a full size bottle. In the bottle it doesn't look like much, just a mess of orangey yellow polish because the neon glitter is slightly transparent.
