OPI Spookette's - He's My Boo

Hey everyone! OMG HALLOWEEN IS SO CLOSE!

Okay, Halloween is legit my favorite Holiday. No joke. I LOVE IT! Pumpkins, Candy, Dressing up, CANDY! Ahh!

So of course, I ALWAYS buy the halloween collections from the polish companies... It's my vice.

So, here's what I got:


To be honest, I usually HATE mini's. You'll see Lindsey with them, but not me. I just hate how little they are, how little the hole is, how the brush isn't a pro-wide which I ADORE, etc. But these are the BEST mini's I've EVER bought! Not kidding. They applied so well, no gloops or glopes.

These were also my gameday nails. The football team I work for color's are orange and black (how perfect, right?) and so I usually do a gameday mani (watch out for more of these :))

Okay, you know me, I can never not have tipwear, and not kidding, I took these on the field at our game, so sorry for the poor quality. But I mean do you see that foot? Yep, that's a cleat. The boy standing next to me was like uhh... are you taking pictures of your nails, and I just said yep! Hahaha I totally forgot to take them before the game and I knew that if I waited they would be goners.

Okay, I used two coats of He's my boo and one coat of CND's Gold shimmer. SO PRETTY. (Of course I topped it off with Seche Vite because I have NO patience for any other top coat). The shimmer looked so so so so pretty with the orange. Such a pretty combination.



We ended up losing, but it's okay, I love the boys anyways!

I hope everyone has a good week!

Wannabe Chanel Mimosa

Hi guys! I hope everyone's summer is going really well! It's getting hot here!

So, I LOVE Chanel nail polishes! They are so amazing, but I do not love the price tag, like other people, so I decided to improvise!

For the Summer, Chanel released Mimosa, a sheer "shimmery" golden/buttery polish. Uhhhh I lusted over this polish, but I knew, being such a crazy color, that I could not buy it because I would never get my used out of it. I just made do with the colors I already owned!

First, I did two coats of China Glaze's Lemon Fizz from their Up & Away collection. Then, having CND's Gold shimmer, I put on a top coat. It doesn't look like it 100%, but for me, it's pretty close.

Chanel's Mimosa: (I just googled this picture)
Here's my interpretation!









What are your improvisations for Chanel polishes? Do you have any dupes? I would LOVE to know! 

I hope to have a great fourth of july nail posting here soon! 

Have a great week!
