OPI Let's Do Anything We Want!

     Today, I have Let's Do Anything We Want! from OPI's Muppets Most Wanted collection to show you guys. Let's Do Anything We Want! is a pink and white glitter topper in a clear base. I don't know if it's supposed to be based on a character from the film but since it's pink I would bet on Miss Piggy (But that's just a guess). This polish is probably my favorite one of the collection though. So without further ado here is Let's Do Anything We Want!:

     For these pictures I used two coats of Let's Do Anything We Want!, over two coats of OPI My Vampire Is Buff, followed by a layer of top coat. This polish applied fairly easily...well let me extrapolate that: The small pink and white glitter applied easily...the large white squares...not so much. They kind of have to be dug out and placed where you want them. Which is kind of a pain in the butt to be honest. That said I think the effort is well worth it. I freaking love this polish. It's so pretty, I'm in love. I'm officially putting matte white glitter on my list of favorite types of glitter. I can't explain it but I find them to be all sorts of groovy. What do you guys think? Are you loving Let's Do Anything We Want!?  Tell me your thought below. Well that's all I have for you today. Until next time, stay classy, and stay polished.

Nautical Nails

    Today, I have a nautical inspired manicure to show you guys. The idea for this manicure kinda just happened while I was going through my plates. I realized how may nautical theme stamping plates I actually have...none of which were purchased for the nautical images. They were all obtained for other designs on the plate or in the plate set. So, I decided what the hell. I'll do a nautical theme manicure. After all I had the required equipment. It's still kinda summer right (Ehh, close enough). Anyway, no further blathering from me. Here's my nautical stamping manicure:

What I Used:

China Glaze - White On White

China Glaze - Man Hunt

Orly - Grave Mistake

Konad - White

Konad - Blue

Stamping Plates:

Cheeky - CH49 & CH36

Essence - 01 Have Fun

Shany - SH211

And a song that's kind of nautical...kind of...okay not really but it's Darren Hayes. I would hear him sing if it cost me my ears. Push play. Listen. Enjoy. You're welcome.

The Siren's Call - Darren Hayes. 

      I don't think this manicure needs much explanation. It's stamping nail art. I painted my nails then stamped on a design. I was feeling kinda lazy, but wanted more than just plain old nail polish. I hope you guys like it. To be honest I don't know all that much about all things nautical...we don't have a lot of boats in land locked Idaho. So....my boating experience is kind of minuscule. I guess, we do have the Snake River but....about 3-4 people die in it every summer...so, it kind of conflicts with my life plan (of not drowning in a river, and I'm rather attached to this life plan). I have however logged many hours on boats while playing The Sims 3 Island Paradise. I'm going to pretend that simulation counts as experience. JK. Anyway, that's all I have for you guys today. Until next time, stay classy, and stay polished.

4th Of July/Independence Day Manicure.

      Today, I have a quick manicure to share with you guys. If you are not in the US, the July 4th is our Independence Day. And this is the manicure I did to celebrate it. I actually got the idea for this after watching  a YouTube Video by SimpleLittlePleasures (see tutorial here) and decided I wanted to try a similar manicure but I added stars (cuz I love stars)...plus I had to make it my own. That said this would look better on her nails...because they are gorgeous (and a length I will never be able to achieve) and right now I have nubs after a laundry accident that ripped one nail down to the quick on my left hand (laundry day is a very dangerous day!). So these are pictures of my right hand (so please pretend to not notice the odd angles). But anyway here's my 4th of July mani. Enjoy.

What I Used:

China Glaze - White On White

China Glaze - Dandy Lyin' Around

China Glaze - Dorthy Who?

China Glaze - Ruby Pumps

Konad - White

Cheeky Plate - CH4

     I used a combination of taping, sponging, free hand, and stamping to get this look. It took forever. And I have a ton, and I do mean a ton of nail polish on. So I sat trying to not dent my nails for a really long time. That's why this post is up so late. I hope you enjoy it. Anyway have a safe and happy 4th of July. Until next time, stay classy, and stay polished.
