Ringing in the New Year!

Once again I would like to wish us all a happy and healthy 2011! May you all be blessed.

My New Year Eve/New Year's Day was wonderful. I spent it with my family and boyfriend.
So what did I wear to ring in the New Year. Zoya's Crystal. Two coats, Perfect! It's a gorgeous icy blue foil with gold flecks.

Peep it:

It's a must have in my opinion.

Essie at Walmart? Why yes.

First off Happy New Year everyone!
Today I was picking up a few things at Walmart when I saw a randomly placed Essie nail polish bottle sitting on the shelf. I was really confused. When did this happen? I turned the corner and saw this bright permanent display. I got a little excited. I snapped a quick picture (there were a lot of people around haha) and then I got to looking.
There were colors from their latest Fall Collection as well as old favorites. I even saw Demure Vixen which is one of my favorites, but the name was changed to Demure Vix. *Scratches head* I ended up getting Brownie Points (a dusty red) and it was $7.75.
From what I can tell the bottles aren't different. They've just added a side sticker, instead of the name on the bottom it's on a small sticker on the top of the handle, and the little "e" is gone.
Here is the display:

There were only a few missing slots. Obviously most people don't even know they are there. And there is more to come in February apparently!
This is Essie's new retail line and it will also be sold online. While I'm all for this, I have a feeling these pretty display's will end up trashed just like other displays. It's just the way it is.

Are you going to buy Essie at Walmart?

Here are some actual bottle pictures so you can see the changes:

P.S.  I got a free Raspberry Smoothie @ the B&N Starbucks. Win!

Hautelook

I just recently started using the website Hautelook. It's a website that brings you great deals by top brands. You just have to sign up. And of course it's free!

A blogger friend turned me on to this website, and I'm glad she did.

I recently bought some Muk Luk Boots, Urban Decay pigments, and an AA Scarf. Everything was 50% off which was awesome. Once everything get's here I'll do my best to do a proper review.

Anyhow if you're a deal shopper this is a pretty great website. Check it out by clicking the link below.

My Winter Wonderland!

It happened. It finally happened. It snowed on Christmas for the first time in my life. How amazing, and beautiful. I hope everyone had a joyous day. It was nice, and of course the snow that came made it perfect.

Today I played in the snow with my dogs and Dad while everyone else stayed in. I took tons of pictures on my new DSLR. It was fun, cold and fun!

So here is my Christmas manicure. Plan and simple Ruby Deer by China Glaze. Nice in two coats. Had some balding from my top coat, but it was no biggie. The last 3 photos are the most true to life.

Now on to some snow pictures.

Jumping to catch snow in her mouth. Gosh she's so cute!

So there are a few pictures. I wish I could add them all. So many cute ones that's for sure!

Thank You Zoya!

I participated in a Zoya Twitter Contest on December 20th. I kind of forgot about it until I got on Twitter the next day. I noticed a tweet from Zoya that I had won a free bottle of polish and Mini Remove along with two other Zoya fans. I was so excited!

To make it even better I received my package on Christmas Eve. I can't believe how quickly it came. What a great Christmas present.

Thank you Zoya, y'all rock!

Here's what I got. A mini bottle of Remove, and Crystal Polish.

(P.S. I took this with my new DSLR camera. Yay!)

Thanks for reading, and again Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas!

I would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas! May God Bless us all with good health, love, and happiness.

 My sweet girl also says "Woof, woof. Merry Christmas."

Let's Party Hearty!

Umm corny title...

Haha. I've got a Christmas party going on, on my nails. I decided to use Frosty and Party Hearty and do a cute manicure. (If you follow me on Twitter I posted a quick picture of it.) Similar to what most people have seen I'm sure. I really love it though. I'm not sure if it will last all the way to Christmas, but we'll see.
I used 2 coats of Frosty and 2 coats of Party Hearty on top of that. I noticed I had a bit of tip shrinkage obviously happened when I put on my top coat. No biggie though.
I really like how Frosty applies. Great formula. And of course Party Hearty was pretty easy to apply. I really like the 2 sizes of hexagon glitter paired with the smaller square glitter.
Now on to the pictures.

Pretty stuff. Hehe.

I can't believe it's almost Christmas. We just got our tree up today. I hope everyone is enjoying the Holidays!

Thanks for stopping by.
