Toasty Side Glitter – Friends Fingers Friday

December 12, 2014 by Lesley 1 Comment

Essie - Take it Outside with KBShimmer - Toastess with the Most-est glitter

 

Just because my nails have been bare for about two weeks doesn’t mean there hasn’t been anything nail polish related happening around here. When Sandra was on her way to my place to get her nails done this time, she was nearly in a car accident. After calming her down, I declared that she needed a glitter-bomb to distract her from being upset. I’m not sure she was sold on the idea, but she picked through my nail polish anyway, and chose something that had been on my wishlist for a while, but was as yet untried. Find out what we played with after the break.

Nail Art: Poppies

Rememberance Day poppies nail art

 

I have some nail art in honour of Remembrance Day today, which is tomorrow, November 11th. In Canada, in the month or so leading up to the day, we wear plastic poppies on pins in our jacket lapels, and even after three years living in the US, I can’t get used to the lack of plastic poppies around. I actually considered asking my Mom to grab one for me and send it to me in my Christmas package, so I’ll have one next year, but it might be weird. Of course, that’s not even considering that the temperature here in California is way too high to be wearing jackets with lapels in which to stick a poppy on a pin. I’ll have to content myself with poppies on my nails, I guess. See more pictures after the break.

I was going to show some China Glaze today, but then I realized that my hot pink shirt was reflecting in a bunch of the nails, making it look like everything had terrible bald spots at the cuticle. Apparently I need to go buy some more black shirts for blogging in! Conveniently, I had some swatches sitting around waiting for their turn, and I threw them all together for your viewing pleasure. See more pictures and my thoughts on each after the break.

About me

Hi, my name is Lesley Penney, and I first got into nails in the summer of 2014. I love nail art, cats, reading, and sushi, and I blog with the help of two feline assistants keeping an eye on me. I'm a Canadian living in the south San Francisco Bay area, trying to escape the heat.
