TGIF: Earthy Aqua Gradient

Thank God it's Friday everyone! This week has absolutely been so very hectic for me, with school and tennis, and I'm still trying to balance everything out!

I started off two dreamy coats of Earthy Angel, and then sponged on Bettina Aqua, and then a little bit of Zoya Zuza. Afterwards I stampeded over it using Silver Sweep... You can't see it IRL, but Aqua actually turned the stamping gold, so on top is silver and on the bottom is gold... It looks cool. 

Oh... And the photos look a lil bit weird because I am using a new camera and I'm trying to find out how to use it, lol.

Thoughts??

Cotton Candy Gradient

Hellooooo. So. Slowly easing myself into blogging. Hopefully once I start school again my schedule will be more... Sorted out. Right now I wake up at like 9:00-10:00 and stay in my pajama's unless I have like three hours of tennis or going somewhere with my friends.

I started off with Pink Friday from the Nicki Minaj collection. I am not of a pink wearer so I actually haven't tried it (but I've dabbled a bit with it) until now. I was originally going to add the blue right away but I was in a hurry and left it pink-- Which I ended up loving for some reason-- for a couple days before adding the rest of the nail art.

I started off with two coats of Pink Friday which is your average light/medium pink Creme. Nothing to special, but for some reason I liked it (excuse bubbling on ring finger i was in a hurry). I then sponged on a bit of For Audrey and then stamped over it using a silver polish. It's sort of hard to tell, but the design is sort of a fish scale look... Not sure. A girl from my tennis class said it looked like mountains. Haha. The image was on a french tip plate so I did have to stamp it twice.

Anyway, I hoped you liked it and be sure to let me know what you think! xx

Happy Late Blog-O-Versary!

Hi everyone! So... My blog-o-versary was on July 25 and I forgot.... So... Enjoy this late post :)

I was hoping it would be a little bit more pink, it looks a bit orange, but I'm still happy with the outcome :)

Hope you all have a lovely day, I'm off to tennis now! xx

Rainbow and Roses

Hi everyone! Quick post today! So exhausted... Long day today. I went walking for like a mile today with my friend, then walked a mile to get to the tennis courts, and then played three hours of tennis in the brutal heat. And then I had to make myself dinner, and now I am baking cookies. I can finally sit down! Going to eat my cookies, rest my feet, and enjoy an episode of Bunheads.

I was feeling fun today.. Not entirely crazy about it but I seriously need to post something :/

Anyway, enjoy, and I hope you all have a wonderful day/night xx

Thank You Everyone!

Hi! So.... I haven't been on my blog in a while. I seriously think I am the worst blogger in the world. After I started my giveaway I wasn't feeling inspired and then my nails broke and I wanted them to grow out, but I wasn't using nail polish and that failed because I kept on chewing them (ew) and up until two weeks ago I started using polish again. So yea, my nails are at a nice length right now and I am going to really try and keep them this way! :)

  Just because of personal reasons, I'm not going to post as much as I used to (back when I actually posted) but I am going to make up for it by posting a really cool manicure or something, just because sometimes I just like a plain color on my tips but most likely I've already swatched it for you guys so yea... Boring. But I am going to try and put more thought into my manicures for you so it makes up for me being a horrible blogger.

  And on top of that, I'm super busy. I do tennis lessons through out the week, Youth Nights, social life, and after summer is over, I am starting school again. But I am really trying to figure out how to balance everything out because I legit love blogging :)

  In other news, I was on my Twitter the other day, and I realized that I am so behind in the blogging world :/ I've pretty much dedicated all of my time lately to One Direction. It's actually quite sad.

So far I have two ideas that I am really excited to try out for my next mani! I have a fourth of July mani idea that I have NEVER tried before so I'm anxious to start on that, and then I have this fun skittle-esque idea that I want to try.

As far as my giveaway goes, IT'S FINISHED! Thank you so much to everyone who entered and GOOD LUCK! I will be going through the list this week and post the winners hopefully on Wednesday, or Thursday, and then try and send it out by Next Monday.

OH! And I am almost up to 700 followers! Y'ALL ARE AMAZING AND I LOVE YOU.

k... That's about it.  Bai <3
