Unforgettable Moments Sparkling Turquoise

Hey guys! Happy Happy Friday! Quick post today; I'm running around like a mad woman! Ack!


Payless polish today. This is Sparkling Turquoise, a glass flecked turquoise beauty.





This is 2.5 coats, because there was a bit of balding in some spots, most likely due to my hurried application.



Talk to you soon!

Heart of Gold

Hey guys! Sorry for the late post... busy busy busy!

Only a few more posts with hearts, I promise! 

I started with two coats of L'Oreal's Owl's Lust. I personally do not think of red when I think of owl's but whatevs. 




Then I free hand drew gold hearts on the nails. They are a bit wonky but I liked most of the hearts! I used L'Oreal's Amazon's Flash for the hearts. 

What do you think? Fun, right?

Talk to you soon!

Tiny Hearts

Hey guys!

More hearts and pink and red today.

I started with two coats of Julep Mandy, a bright pinky coral polish. I LOVE this color. It is much brighter than it is showing up in the photos. Boo.







Then I free hand drew little hearts on the nails. Okay so they kind of look like birds... but birds are cute too. 



Yes, yes, I know... my nail art is abysmal. I'm trying!

Did you have a nice Valentine's Day? Did you do anything special?

Guest Post: Maria from Nails Made Simple

Hey guys!Happy Valentine's Day!

Today we have the lovely Maria from Nails Made Simple! Go check out her blog, she does really great and fun manicures!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hello Fashion Footing readers! Today I have the privilege to be a guest blogger for my lovely & sweet friend Amanda. I myself am NOT a big St. Valentine person, but for Amanda I'll make myself one :) I decided to go with something simple yet festive so I call my mani "Strings of Heart". 
I remember when I was young I use to play with those sticks with cloth at the end and just swirl around and create hearts in the air & I tried to re create that in my nails.
I used OPI- Kiss Me on My Tulips, which is from their newest collection (Holland) & to do the swirls I used Orly Instant Artist in Jet Black. I hope you like it! :)





& that's it girls! Thank you Amanda for letting me do a guest post for you!  love you chicka!

xoxo
Maria

Thank you so much, Maria! I love this manicure! I thought I didn't need "Kiss Me On My Tulips" but I'm rethinking that after seeing this :-) 

Don't you guys love Maria's mani? What are your plans for this evening?

Talk to you soon!

Does anyone have big plans for today? How is the weather in your parts? It's about 18 degrees here. I'm freezing!!!
