Manicure Monday: Silver Details
Manicures are a great way to express your feelings and personality without being in-your-face – unless, of course, you take a ton of photos and post all about your nails in a blog online, then maybe it’s in-your-face. Anyway, whether I’m feeling geeky, pretty, or punk, I can change my manicure as quickly as I […]
Manicure Monday: Minnie Mouse
There’s something about Disney that’s so … magical. I don’t think I know anyone that doesn’t like Disney. In fact, I don’t even know anyone who is neutral about Disney. Everyone loves Disney! So why not make a Disney-themed manicure? This week’s manicure is a tribute to none other than Minnie Mouse! The bright red […]
Manicure Monday: Neon & Glitter
There’s bold manicures, and then there’s bold manicures. When you combine Color Club’s neon and Essie’s glitter, you’re bound to get a pretty bold manicure look. This week’s Manicure Monday features both fun glitter and bright neon. This manicure is not for the faint of heart – it involves bold polishes, a lot of tape, […]

I’ve gotten inspiration for my Manicure Monday tutorials from my favorite clothes, from holidays, and even from just staring at my nail polish collection.

When it comes to creating nail art, there’s a lot of ways you can go about creating the look you want. You can either invest in a professional manicure – or you can get creative. Tape can help you get straight lines, a dotting tool (or even a bobbi pin or paper clip!) can create […]
Manicure Monday: Red, White & Blue

Creating tiny, intricate stars and perfectly balanced stripes is no easy task, especially if you’re downsizing it to your fingernail. There are so many options […]
Manicure Monday: Watercolors
Admittedly, I’ve been getting pretty technical with my manicures lately. From chevron to tribal print, some of these manicures really require a steady hand. With today’s manicure, that’s not the case. While the look may have been inspired by the gorgeous paintings of Monet and Cézanne, you don’t need to be a famous artist to […]
Manicure Monday: Bold Ikat
I typically base my beauty look on what I’m wearing that day or where I’m planning on going. Obviously a more natural look is appropriate for work, or I can spice it up if I’m going out. This week, I was so inspired by what I was wearing that I created my manicure from it! […]

It’s an entirely new experience from high school – your college is your home. Speaking from experience, your college comes to mean much more than […]
