2014 in Polish

2014 was a good year in polish for me, even though I’ve been neglecting my nails for the past 2 months. I decided to post my top ten favorite nail looks from 2014. Enjoy!

1. Space Nails – I ALWAYS love space/sky/nebular nails.
2. X-Men Nails – Ray has been a huge x-men fan since he was a little boy. I did this look for the Days of Future Past premier!
3. Panda Nails – Because why not?
4. Pineapple Nails – Pineapples were so trendy this summer! I had to represent with a little nail art!
5. Water Color Gradient Nails – These turned out so much prettier than I was expecting.
6. Green on green Nails – Inspired by Twin Peaks!
7. TV Nails – Inspired by a Zooey Deschanel manicure she wore to the Golden Globes.
8. Rose Gold Tipped Nails – Simple and pretty.
9. Zig Zag Nails – Inspired by a bathing suit I had as a child.
10. Triangle Nails – One of my favorite color combos!

Looking forward to new nail inspiration for 2015!

You may have seen both of these polishes in my Top Ten Favorite Summer Polishes, and let me tell you, I REALLY love them. For this look I painted my nails with Essie’s A Splash of Grenadine, taped off a triangle with good ole scotch tape, and painted Orly’s Rage in the triangle. Easy as pie!
I can’t get enough of this pink color. Pink is a hard color for me to wear. Baby pink makes my skin look dirty and hot pink makes my skin look sallow. I think this cool toned medium pink is my perfect pink!

I’m back (said in my Veronica Mars voice)! What better way to welcome the summer weather than a little tropical flare?! About a week ago I was watching a youtube video on fruit nail art and decided to try a pineapple nail. It’s not the most beautiful pineapple, but I really like it!Happy Cinco De Mayo!

Nailed it on a Wednesday? Crazy! Actually, I had a minor meltdown Sunday afternoon while I was trying to take blog photos because I don’t really know how to use my camera and it takes forever for me to change the settings. I ended up taking these photos yesterday during my lunch break.This design was super easy. All I used were 3 nails polishes and scotch tape!

In honor of Star Wars Day this past Saturday I made galaxy-far-far-away-nails! I had been wanting to try galaxy (or nebula or milky way or whatever) nails for a while now, but I thought it would be really complicated. Guess what… it wasn’t complicated at all!I’m way into these nails. They may even stay on my fingers for more than a couple days before I decide on something else. Hmm, we’ll see…
