Two Manis. today....Apples and Cats!

Good morning! How was your weekend? Mine was really good, but I was so exhausted by yesterday afternoon, I could have gone to bed for the night! We went to a late football game Sat. night and didn't get home until 1am I didn't get to sleep until 3am and was up at 7! We got up yesterday, and went to a fall festival at a Cidermill. We had some yummy cider donuts and apple cider. I had an apple cider slush. Sooo good! :-) After that we went to a winery, did some wine tasting, and then enjoyed a bottle of apple wine,cheese and pumpkin fudge. By that time, I was ready for some sleep! I came home and had a nap, but it was not long enough. Needless to say, I slept well last night! LOL!

I actually did two manis. yesterday. I wanted to post them last night, but just couldn't stay awake. The first one I did, was an apple mani. to go alone with our activities of the day. :-) I used a Love & Beauty polish, from Forever 21. The name of it is just called Green. It is so much more than just green though. It's an apple green color with lots of gold shimmer. It's super pretty. Application was great. The formula is a little on the thin side, so I used three coats. I then added apple fimo's to each nail.

Food/Drink Pics! Here's the awesome Apple Wine we had....



Apple Cider Slush and Apple Cider Donuts...





Now on to the second mani. that I did yesterday. As much as I loved the apple mani. I did, by the time we got home, a couple of the apples were falling off. I decided to do a cat mani. since yesterday was National Feral Cat Day. The color for NFCD is teal. I used a newer brand of polish that can be found at Ulta. It's called Pixel. The bottles are small...0.17 Fl.oz/5ml but they do have quite a few pretty colors. The one I wore yesterday is called Aqua-Escence It is a dark teal color with golden shimmer. Now application was not the best. I think because the bottle/brush is so small, I had to dip the brush in twice to cover my nail. Plus, buy this time, I was super tired. Who knows, it could have just been me. ;-) I used two thick coats, and added a Halloween cat nail sticker to my ring fingers.

Speaking of cats, here's a cute pic. I snapped of one of my cats, Morris yesterday. We had pizza last night, and he decided he wanted to sit on top of the boxes! Notice my beagle, Buster in the corner staring up at the pizza. LOL!



Thanks for reading! I hope you all had a good weekend, and are having a good Mon. :-)

Love and Beauty Rose Petal Collection. Lots of Pics!

Happy, Happy Friday!!! :-) I need a nap! LOL! I'm sooo tired right now. I've been really busy trying to get things ready for our upcoming vacation, that I've worn myself out. Before I've even left....don't you just love that? We also having company coming over tonight.

Anyway, I have a great little collection to show you today. It's from Forever 21 and the bottles are shaped like little roses. The colors are really pretty too. All glitters, but one. Kinda odd, there's just one cream.

Here's a pic. of the collection.



I chose the black one to wear first. It's just called Black/Silver. That's how most of these are named. Not real original on the names, but the colors and cuteness of the bottles make up for that. ;-)

Black/Silver is a black jelly with lots of silver glitter. Application was great, and I used two coats.











Here are close up bottle pics. of the rest of the collection. I will be swatching them soon. :-)

























Do you see any you might be interested in? If so, you can get them at Forever 21 in store and online. They are $1.80 each so a great price. :-)

Love & Beauty Current....Flakie goodness!

Good morning! It's Friday!!! Yay! :-) Today, I have on another one of the Love and Beauty polishes that I picked up at Forever 21. This one is called Current, and it's the exact same polish as LA Girls Addict from the Rock Star collection. I'm so glad I was able to find this, as Addict has been one of my biggest lemmings. Current/Addict is a beautiful deep red/burgundy jelly with red and gold flakes. Application was great and I used two coats. I love this polish so much! :-)

I seriously suggest clicking on these so you can see the awesomeness of this poish....just sayin. ;-)















I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Anyone have any big plans?

Love & Beauty Purple/Gold and Sinful Red Ocean

Today, I have on a polish I picked up from Forever 21. The brand is called Love and Beauty. They have quite a few different colors, and I think I have around ten of them. They are $2.99 and supposedly they are made by the same people who make LA Girl polish. Quite a few of the L&B colors are the same as the LA Girl colors. They don't have the same names, but they look just alike. The one I have on today, is just called purple. It is a grape purple with gold shimmer. It's very pretty. Application was a bit tricky as the polish was kinda thick. I used two coats but one was plenty. While I really liked the color on it's own, I was in the mood for something more. So, I put a coat of Sinful Colors Red Ocean on top. Red Ocean is a red base with green flakies and orange glitter. LOVE it! :-)








Here is the Love and Beauty Purple on it's own.









After adding Sinful Colors Red Ocean, I decided to top it off with adding a Hot Topic polish that has holo stars and glitter. Maybe a bit too much? I don't know. I kinda like it..but not for sure. LOL! I guess I was just in a layering mood.









I hope you are all having a great day! It's almost Fri! :-)
