Candy Cane Digits

Hey lovlies I'm back after sometime....this cold weather leaves me in such a funk but recently I felt like adding some holiday joy.....what better way than with a DIY of the nail kind! I've been seeing a plethor of these type of nails in the blogger world so i had to try myself :D Have you tried any designs for this holiday season or seen some that caught your eye..if so what are your faves??

SALLY HANSEN "Diamond Shine" Base/Top Coat
COVERGIRL CG BOUNDLESS COLOR "White Night"
MILANI "Ruby Jewels"

Clean nails w: acrylic

Base

I did each nail entirely and went back later to perfect lines & varied thickness of lines

Polish has an awesome subtle glitter that makes it awesome to layer onto other colors

All done :) (I did it while i was at my desk at work eek)

Up close...love the ring finger strips i wish the rest had came out that way

I needed a fill but i broke my pinky nail so i havent gone yet. Despite what the photo shows the lines going a diff angle distract from the horizontal lines my receding acrylic is causing :p

Playing Houdini- Chris Brown Ft. K-Mac "Strip"

Chris Brown feat K-Mac "Strip" from Riveting Entertainment on Vimeo.

I probably shouldn't even mention this because i'm like invisible in this but i'm in this video. If you use your laser vision, pause & slow motion you can see my legs in some pink shorts. If you go to around 2:18 you can see my face very briefly. Can i just say i was freezing (36 degrees when I wrapped the viddy) my behind off!!! Oh and i was shoe-less like most if not all the time because i wasn't told i needed shoes. They said come in your pj's & that's what i exactly did...i was commended for it but not enough lol Being a video chic is NOT "glamourous" in the least bit especially if you just background like i was...What do you think of the video? Where are all the chris brown fans at :)

I'm feeling a change coming far as my attire choices go..something along the lines of effortless effort?

HOORAY for NEW HAiR!
As i posted Fri i got a haircut, i'm looking to do some color as well but this shall suffice.
I love how bangs complemented the long hair thing. I purchased my clip-in extensions from FOXY LOCKS EXTENSIONS sometime in April i believe & I adore them.
Perfect when I want to go from short & curly to LONG & luscious.
You can also see me in action w/ them on my post SHOOT ME
+ they have lashes and other clip in hair accessories.
Take it from me their easy as 1, 2, 3 to put in & out and they're light on your head & pockets ;)

NAiLED iT! Burberry X Randomness

So I've been itching to take a moment of silence to do same nail fancy.
i FINALLY had a moment Sunday while watching my Tivo'd SHREK-Forever After lol & came up with a Burberry design. I had done it years a go once but w/out white so i made this more true to design.
I just wish i had someone else fingers to do it on so the lines would be straighter
(i contemplated begging my bf to let me trial on his large beds haha)

The first set on top i did while at work. I was bored & just doodled & ended up with some triangles..nothing fancy.

What do you think? Have you tried nail designs on your own before?
i'd love to hear some ideas for some NEW creations :)
