Day 2: Orange!

BACK TO THE SWING OF THINGS, HOPEFULLY <3


Alright, so here is my orange nails. I know most people do oranges, so I wanted to do something on the same page, but different. What better than carrots? They're even MORE healthy than oranges SO HA! I got the idea from my mother, who bought some Naked juice the other day. What did it have in it? Oranges and Carrots! Personally, it's too dull for me (the juice not the nails!) but with some lime in there, yumyumyum.

Anyways these nails are adorable in real life. My thumb has like... loads of carrots on it.
The base color is China Glaze - Sunset Sail
My orange of choice was Finger Paints - Prints and Printsess
The green is Sinful Colors - Happy Endings

I also used one of my new little Nail Art pens for this. I'll make a post about the two I've bought so far in hmmm... like 15 mins?

Watch out for my YELLOW nails tomorrow!
I can't wait

Day 1: Red

Well here they are, my first day in the Nail Art Challenge. I honestly held out from doing this challenge for sooo long because I hate red nail polish and it happened to be the first day. I can't get inspired with the color red, I just don't see anything but Christmas.

This red ALMOST changes my mind.
It's China Glaze - Ruby Pumps and maaannnn does it shine!
I'll upload a close up of it if I can get one, but right now I'm beat.
For the gold zigzags, I used these handy little pens I'm going to have to make a post about.
They're the cat's meow!

Here's where the more personal note comes in. Feel free to skip.
My boyfriend tried taking his life Monday night. Yeah, the same night I started this blog. I didn't hear until the morning that they had him in the hospital, but to think I could have woken up to a much worse phone call has me shocked. I originally was doing red drip nails (sorta bloody) but I couldn't bare to after that, so I picked something that couldn't possibly trigger emotions.

ANYWAYS
Here's to tomorrow being brighter than these past couple days.
Day 2: Orange is on the way and I promise I'll be more cheerful
