Mani of the week: Oktoberfest!

I did a little shopping today and I caved and got OPI It's always Oktoberfest In the Germany collection. I mean...I'm German so I have to get at least one right?
Right!
So Basecoat, Color and I bought another bottle of China Glaze Fast Forward top coat. Still my favorite fast drying for regular ol' nails. NOT NAIL ART it smears!
On my nails:
it is such a beauteous purple I adore it!.... but its more red in artificial light. 
I also got a new Venique and OPI Matte envy. 
It works very well and I hope to do some neat Matte art with it. I read reviews that it has formaldehyde in it so left too long on your natural nail and it will stain yellow. The Venique is Deviant Little sneaker and is a sheer black with Glitter. SO i'll probably wear it over another color. 
I need to remember to get more gelous soon toooo <3
I also bought some more sinful colors and found a good color close to Lumpy Space Princess. Its called Amethyst and it looks like a cheap match to my OPI Planks a lot Which is fabulous! I hope to find more cheap versions of my Adventure Time Nail colors for people on a budget. (I mean good close colors)
I also got the lovely blue called Savage.
And some more nail wheels! Lets see what designs I can cook up!
See you next time!

Mani: Silver and Gold

In celebration of the Olympics FINALLY ending (while the Olympics are great and I love that USA won) I find it incredibly boring to watch, usually because Basketball was on, but finally we are free and can celebrate victory!
So OPI Warm and Fozzie 
OPI Skull and Glossbones with China Glaze Hologram over it. 
I actually kept my last mani for a while and got quite a few compliments on it,it made me happy and excited to tell people the wonders of a simple make up sponge. :3

Looking Forward: 
All I can say is I've seen swatches of the O.P.I. Skyfall collection and I can say I want them!
Live and Let die is beautiful and the world is not enough is a fab golden glitter apparently with a hint of duo-chrome :D

I look forward to being able to purchase the German collection as well, (being German myself and having been there I can say I was quite excited when I heard of it I'll be trying them out as soon as I can get some!)

On another note! I've created a blog for fitness! 
I have a lofty goal of 109 pounds total to happiness but we will see what I can actually do.
You can see it Here: 
also I made this the other day and wanted to share my #firstworldproblems


well that is what I have today, I'll be posting my reviews of some cheap masks I found at Wal-Mart soon!

Manicures of the week






I rocked this mani at my friends birthday party this last weekend and it made me think of Easter mostly.
China Glaze Aquadelic and Brownstone.











I had this mani about Wednesday and it chipped badly because I had to remove stickers so it was removed in a day. :(
China Glaze techno teal and Laser Lime
(elecTRONica collection)














My current manicure and my favorite blue is from the OPI Nicki Minaj  collection fly and the french tip is Metallic 4 Life. 






I've noticed this trend of glitter french tips or french tip fading which looks really nice so my current mani reflects that. I think for my next mani will either be stamping or trying craft glitter on my nails.I need to buy a new white which means buying my favorite white, that is, China Glaze White on White, always so opaque and a very smooth white. 
The craft glitter I have makes me think of Valentines day though so I may just be preparing a future post on that, but I do want to start the pink on Wednesdays so the glitter may look good for that.
I've also been using seche vite as a top coat and I used to not like it very much, but its great for evening out nail art and it is very fast drying. 
Also I really need to remember to take pictures in the daylight, shows the color so much better but ost days are so foggy it doesn't even matter..... 
I'm also working on my blog layout so it'll be more customized to my style and going to link to my friends blogs! or any favorites I have but mostly my friends. 
I've been watching Grimm on hulu and may have to do some Grimm fairy tale themed art and I definitely need to do some  Disney designs, mostly Disneyland inspired but I will do my favorite classics.
 SO I need more nail wheels!!
So there is my manis of this week since I will probably be keeping my current all weekend. 

More to come!
