NOTD + Baseball

I had an exciting weekend, I bought more CM Nail Art polishes, gave myself a cool manicure, and saw my favorite rookie baseball star Mike Trout! <3 {get ready for loads of pictures!}

Let's start with some Nail Art:

 The final product: #27 for the my favorite Angels' Mike Trout :)


  •  I started out with a base coat of red polish, then added glitter and finished it off with 2 more coats of red polish. Result... 


Jelly Sandwich!
The sandwich gives off a multi-dimenional look I really like!




  • Next I took my red CM Nail Art polish and added 2 semi-circles followed by lots of small lines to create the baseball.



  • Finally, I drew the A and the 27 (freehand, using logos I found on Google as my guide) in Blue, then added Red over that. 
  • I finished the A off with a grey Halo- I used a shorter brush in order to get the rounded effect more precise.

I realize that the 27 could have used a second attempt... but I blame it on having a strictly dominant left hand and being too excited to see the final result!



Moving on to Game Day pictures:

My Rally Monkey didn't make it to the game, 
  she had other engagements. I forgot her :(


Mike Trout!

And the Angel's won, until next time  Trout!

NOTD + NAIL POLISH RACK!


I am so excited! I have been on the hunt for a nail polish rack for a while now, but online prices are pretty steep (~$75). So I did some research and found this place called Skylark Nail and Beauty Supply and made it my mission to go check out their goods. I ended up buying one for $23.00 flat! So exciting! It holds about 80 polishes and hangs nicely on my wall!

I also picked up a two new China Glaze polishes for $2.50 each plus a much needed bottle of my favorite top coat Seche Vite for $4.00!!! I definitely recommend visiting Skylark if you are in the area they have everything necessary for manicures!

Here is a picture of the nail polish rack and a quick mani I did with both my new polishes (not my best job, but wanted to share anyway)... the pictures do not do the glitter justice!

I think I need more polishes!

As promised, here are all the beautiful nail polishes I recently purchased! I'm pretty excited about all of them. (except the brown one, not sure I'd want brown nails...) Talking about brown, some of these darker colors are more ideal for fall or winter. I don't mind though, if I like a color, why not wear it all year round right?

What do you think? Black mani for summer time?! (I have an Idea: black & neon mani!)

I can't wait to show you more pretty manicures using these new colors!
