OPI Get in the Expresso Lane

Get in the Expresso Lane is from OPI's Fall 2011 Touring America Collection.

Normally I shy away from brown cremes but this one is different.  It's almost cool toned.  It's a dark, almost smokey brown and I love it!

 No complaints about the formula, everything went on nicely in 2 coats.

(Side note: I'm using a new camera -- broke the old one.  I'm kind of playing around with different angles and things.  Let me know what you think!)

I hope everyone has a great New Years Eve!!

Christmas Mani!

Just a quick post.  This Christmas I decided to do a water marble.  I used a base of white and marbled with China Glaze Phat Santa, China Glaze Holly-days, and China Glaze Snow.  My clean up wasn't that great, but no one noticed and I got tons of compliments :-)

I hope everyone has been having a great holiday!!

My never seen before (lol) right hand:

I'm Alive / Color Club Very Merry Berry

It never fails.  Every Thanksgiving, I'll be chopping, peeling, or grating something in the kitchen and BAM, something happens to a nail.  This year it was the index finger with the knife chopping green onions.  I really don't know why my family even lets me anywhere near a knife lol.  Anyways, the results where this:



So I've been MIA trying to grow it out and wearing nude polishes until I just couldn't stand it anymore.  My nails aren't back to my usual standards, but I had to put some color on them.

Of course I went all the way.  I layered Color Club Very Merry Berry over a China Glaze navy blue cream.
