HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

Hi everyone.... Whether or not you have a Valentine, have something chocolate because I said so. 

Here are my water marble Valentine's Day nails and some goodies :)).

Rose Among Thorns- China Glaze

Hi ladies, for my second post today i'd like to share with you my current mani...

My base color is a red polish by China Glaze called "Rose Among Thorns", I got this on Wednesday from Sally's during their $3.99 China Glaze sale. This polish dries matte so in this post I will show you the matte and with top coat look.

My nail decals are by Sally Hansen Salon Effects called "Speed Date". 

Matte Finish

With Top Coat

Jordana "Super Color" Swatch

Hi ladies, I should have posted this last night but it slipped my mind after I showered and was snuggled in bed lol (who doesn't this happen to)?

Today I'm sharing with you 6 swatches of Jordana's "Super Color" collection that I purchased from www.cherryculture.com. They were on sale for $1.80 each during their 20% off sale about a week ago. 

Swatches of Jordana "Super Color" collection 1. Enchantress 2. Gam-o-Ray 3.Blue Phantom 4.Dream Queen 5. Dragoness 6.Nemesis

The formula was very easy to apply, drying time in between coats was fairly quickly; there weren't any streaks either. This is 2 coats of each without a top coat.

Love Letter Swirl

Arghhhhhh yes all of that!!

Today I hate my nails (one thing about me, i'll post when my nails are nice and not so nice)! I hit it on the door lock coming in to work and now I see my nail decal is chipping and coming off.

Rule of thumb for the Sally Hansen Salon Effects is that once you use a pack, you might as well throw it out because the rest won't be usable when you're ready. 

The break in half and have no adhesive on it!! 

I do like my swirl nail tho.

~SHE BAGS~ Yaitza Fuentes

For my third and final post for the day is another interview of a dear friend of mine, Yaitza who just so happen to have an addiction love for handbags... read more about how SHE BAGS....

Name- Yaitza Fuentes

Location- Ocala, Florida, by way of Bronx, NYC

There are plenty of women who don't like handbags, of course you aren't one of them; how important of an accessory is a handbag to you? and why? I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE a nice sexy bag. My handbag helps start off my outfit. It gives me my mood for the day. It helps determine if I'm going to be sexy, sophisticated, or casual.

What handbag are you currently wearing? MICHAEL KORS LARGE TANGERINE BOWLING SATCHEL/SHOULDER BAG. 

What is your most preferred handbag style and why? I love MK!!!! His brand seems to have a style fit for everyone and at a reasonable price. My fave styles consists of a nice satchel or shoulder bag. The bigger the bag the better (with kids especially).

Top 5 items you must carry in your handbag? #1- Lip balm {With a back up}, #2- Lotion, #3- Wallet, #4- Kindle, and #5- Gum :o) 

What handbag is currently on your wishlist? I have 3 bags on my wishlist……#1- Celine Nano, #2- Chanel Boy Bag and #3- Prada ………Which is where they'll stay until I can afford one…..LOL!!!!!

Besides a nice handbag, what other accessory is an important piece to your attire? Accessories are a must!!!!! But my all time fave piece is a nice WATCH!!! I have so many I started hiding them from my husband (what this watch? Oh it's old ;).

How do you justify an expensive handbag purchase? I always have to justify a handbag purchase to my husband no matter how much it may be. This is how I sell it to him…LOL…. "Baby they had a sale going. Guess how much I paid?" This works for the most part. I normally get my expensive bags on sale. I can never see myself paying full price for anything. I worked for a dept store up North called Century 21 which carries all types of name brands {D&G, Prada, Moschino, Seven for all Mankind} just to name a few. Things at this Dept store sell at discounted prices. I recommend it if you're in the NY area to hit this place up you will fall in love.

What do you like the most about the handbag you're currently wearing? I for one LOVE the color. I like a bag that pops but can be worn with many items. I also like that I can fit lots of stuff in it without looking funny or being too heavy.

Finish this sentence: If (designer) asked me to design a handbag, the material I'd use is? If Fossil asked me to design a handbag, the material i'd use is a nice subtle leather.

*Just throw it in the bag* (finale song chimes in). Yaitiza, bags and she's not afraid to toot tote it. Stay tuned to find out who I bag next.....

Duck Dynasty- Happy Happy Happy

Good morning... 

First off, don't let my title fool you, I wasn't all that happy to wake up at 5:00am, happy to be alive YES!!

So on to my happy nails which bears another polish from the reality show on A&E called "Duck Dynasty". I've showed you a brown splatter polish before made by them, it was a splatter polish; well I have another one in the same form and it's called Happy, Happy, Happy. 

Amazingly, this polish runs the show all on its own. I initially put a base coat assuming that it would look too thin without it but tis isn't the case. This is a pink lacquer based polish with black tinsel with black and white octagon-shaped glitter. 

The base polish is by Finger Paints and it is a pink shimmer polish, I put two coats and no topcoat for these pics; it is called "Where the He-Art Is".

*I picked these up from Walmart this weekend in their beauty clearance section, there was tons of other glitter polishes, if you follow me on IG you will see the pic I posted. 

With the base polish 

Applied by itself, two coats

Swatchful Sunday 2/9/14- OPI, Color Club and Sally Hansen

Good evening everyone, I know this is a late in the day post but late to me is 12:01 lol. So I have these swatches to show you of just some random polishes I picked out of my stash. Now, this is why I sometimes don't like buying Color Club polishes from stores like TJMaxx, Bealls and etc. because they don't always give me the correct polish name for the collection. The box that these polishes came in is called "Untamed", but when I looked it up it didn't look like the set online called the same. The other two polish were a flakie silver glitter and a clear top coat; I gave them away. I was exhausted and didn't feel like doing more research but they are beautiful colors nonetheless, have a look.

The next set of swatches is from OPI's recent release called "Brazil" Here are 2 coats without a top coat. These two are very similar to each other as well as to "Where Did Suzi's Man-Go".

This is Live Love Carnaval

This one is called Toucan Do It If You Try

Lastly, here's a textured polish Sugar Coat by Sally Hansen that I spotted in a stash at Big Lots, I paid a whopping $1 for it LOL. 

Here is 2 coats of Bubble Plum.
