Happy Friday the 13th!

Hi!

The other day, I went to Claire's with a lovely friend of mine, who easily convinced me to get the four magnetic nail polish colors they had in stock. Unfortunately, they did not have the blue one (sad face). Today, I'm going to show you the green one!



Ooooh...



Aaaah...



This might be one of my favorite nail trends! Actually, I'm not sure if you can tell, but this was not a complete success, as the lines did not go all the way across to the free edges of my nails. I still love this mani though and I can't wait to try the rest! Magnetic nail polish yay!!

Here they are, all lined up.




They're $8.50 and BOGO1/2. You can purchase them on their website (here). That's what I should have done - Doh! Now I've got to hunt down that blue!

That's all for now. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Thanks for stopping by!

Edgy Leaves

Hi!

For this post, I bring you Essie in 'Pretty Edgy'. I caught this picture as the sun was setting behind some houses. I'm not sure if you can tell, but it's reflected on my nails, which I think is pretty cool.



I thought a nice leafy print would work well with this color so I got out my Bundle Monster plate (BM19) and stamped my ring finger using Konad special polish in white.



Let me tell you if you don't know already - the original Bundle Monster full nail images are quite small. Even after I cut my nails down, the image didn't cover my nail - almost, but not entirely. I just stamped wherever I thought looked unfinished and voila! I was happy with how it came out.

If you're curious about the size of these full nail images, check out this AWESOME post by the Nailasaurus. She compares the sizes of full nail images from Konad, original Bundle Monster, new Bundle Monster, and Red Angel - very, very awesome. She is a must follow, especially if you love stamping! Love. That. Blog.

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping by!

Jade Green Comparison

Things just got busy up in this place! So here's a random comparison picture for you today.


Index to pinky: Charlotte Russe - JDE Nail Color, Claire's - Dreamcatcher, Delia's - Mint Polish, OPI - Hey! Get In Lime

Quickly, I can tell you that Charlotte Russe and Claire's both have shimmer while Delia's and OPI are cremes. Not too sure about Delia's and OPI, but I think that these might all be hard to find now. I think I got very lucky with the Charlotte Russe 'cause it was the only one I ever saw. If you're thinking right now, "darn you, jeninjafer, darn you for posting these hard to find colors," then maybe this will make you feel better... These babies are all 3-5 coaters for me and weren't particularly fun to apply. The OPI was the 5 coater for me, but that could have been my fault, so I will have to swatch it for you again, patiently next time. If you have any of these, tell me what you think of them. I'd love to hear from you ;)

So if you're wondering what's going on with me, I just got my acceptance letter to Baruch College. In the packet they sent me TODAY, they informed me that they scheduled a math test for me tomorrow morning and a Microsoft Excel test next week! GAH! I'm afraid I might not do well and they'll end up making me take remedial courses (aka math for dummies). We do not want this 'cause they'd be boring and, worst of all, wouldn't be worth anything. x_X I might have to suck it up for next week's test though, 'cause well, I think I am a dummy when it comes to Excel... Maybe the BF can give me a few pointers since he's a whiz with it ^.^

That's all for now~ thanks for stopping by! ^.^
