Green Holograpic Nail Stamped With Ivy - 12 Days of Christmas Holiday Manicures Day 10

If you've got a keen eye, then you just might recognize this green holographic polish from day eight's design, if you did - good sleuthing! I mentioned I was going to start using my stamping tools more often, so before I wiped that gorgeous polish away I just could not resist stamping over it to give it a different look first.

I hadn't planned on using this for one of my 12 days of Holiday manicures, but what the hey, life's short. I love the ivy design and this stamping plate worked awesome. It gave me no troubles whatsoever, it's a Christmas miracle!

This is the same 3 coats of Color Club - Holiday Splendor stamped with the Pueen 55 plate. I used my Konad stamper and white Konad polish again, because hey if it ain't broke don't fix it, right? If you are rocking a polish and you want to freshen it up, try stamping over it. Seriously it changes everything and who cares if it's yesterday's polish? Ain't no shame in our polish game!

Color Club Holiday Splendor - 12 Days of Christmas Holiday Manicures Day 8

Ho-Ho-Holy Holographic Polish, Batman! I am losing my mind today over this amazing sparkly holographic green, Color Club Holiday Spendor is seriously just so much yes in a bottle. SO. MUCH. YES. I was tempted to ramp up the nail art again today while I was still  riding on yesterday's stamping high, but I just couldn't bring myself to cover up the natural amazingness that is this polish.

I've been dying to get my hands on this polish for the longest, and just like a Christmas miracle, my dreams have come true! I must have been a very good girl this year, or very good at hiding from Santa - could go either way... This is 2 coats of Color Club Holiday Splendor topped with my go-to topcoat, Seche Vite. I added the gemstones just for a little extra somethin' somethin.

I honestly wish I could get my camera to take it all in, these photographs really don't even do this polish justice. It is so much more sparkly in real life, take my word for it. If you spot this little gem, better grab it up because I think before long this will be one of those ever coveted holos that become the stuff of legends.

Glitter Bomb Stilettos - OPI Get Your Number

It's December, which means every weekend is GO GO GO!  In a rush but desperate for a new mani, I decided I needed something simple but eye catching and decided to break out my OPI - Get Your Number from their Liquid Sand collection. 

This is seriously a glitter bomb in a bottle and I couldn't love it more! This is two coats of Get Your Number and one coat of Seche Vite. If you are not familiar, the Liquid Sand collection features glittery matte textured polishes that are gorgeous on their own, but I've found that a nice coat of Seche Vite really takes the sparkle up a notch.

Now that I've got it on my nails, I feel a Christmas stamping manicure coming, so stay tuned!

Indie Alert - Model City Spring 2013 Collection

I am so glad that I finally got a chance to swatch the brand new Spring 2013 collection from Model City! These polishes look amazing in the bottle, but I had no idea just how amazing they were until I got them on my fingers. The holographic effects are amazing, and the pastels are perfect for Spring! For full opacity, I used 3 coats of each polish and then finished with a Seche Vite topcoat.
