Manicure Monday: Acid Wash
Sometimes the coolest manicures require little to no skill – and this manicure is one of them. No precision, but all the impact. Acid-washed jeans are kind of like those manicures. They don’t take precision to create, but they definitely make a statement. Acid-wash jeans exploded into the style scene in the late 80’s/early 90’s […]
Manicure Monday: Faux Diamonds
I am absolutely in love with the idea of gems, lace, and other things to bedazzle your manicure. I’m not quite as in love with anything that will make my manicure 3D. If my nails aren’t totally smooth, I find that my nails snag on my hair way too often. So as much as I […]

Manicure Monday: Nail Lingerie
When I received Sation Nail Lacquer in Of Corset I’ll Call You in this month’s Ipsy bag, I had to try it immediately. It’s described as “a romantic lavender-rose” and it’s one of my new favorite shades. It adds the perfect pop of color, but still looks feminine and natural. Good thing Ipsy gave me a […]
Manicure Monday: Tribal Accents
When it comes to nail art, tribal accents look like possibly one of the most complicated designs. I’ve always been drawn to the design, but with such small details, I’ve never been brave enough to try it. And that is what today’s Manicure Monday is all about – making the tribal manicure easy. You’ll find […]
Manicure Monday: Galaxy Nails
Galaxy nails aren’t just for astronomy majors. I’ve tried to recreate the look a few times and never been too happy with the result. They look absolutely beautiful, but look pretty complicated. Every time I’ve tried in the past, they just look sort of … sloppy. After many attempts and several different methods, I finally […]
Manicure Monday: Neutral Daisies
Black and white is a huge trend for spring. Adding in bright colors might look a bit tacky, but adding in a pop of nude can brighten the look without being overpowering. After all, the black and white is the point of the trend! Pair these colors with some flowers and you’ve got a perfect […]
Manicure Monday: Valentine’s Day Heart
When I sat down to do my Valentine’s Day-themed Manicure Monday, I had big ideas to do a different pattern on every nail. Glitter, hearts, polka dots, flowers, matte polish, everything. I started to do the manicure, and I realized that my nails started to look like a tacky Valentine’s Day card. Obviously that’s not […]
