So, as you know, my husband and I eloped and had a courthouse wedding a few weeks ago! Here’s a snapshot of my wedding ring. It’s a palladium band that’s handmade and hand engraved, from Aurell. I am wearing my favorite “holy grail” red nail polish, Sinful Colors Bleeding Heart.
What’s on your nails?
Tonight is our town’s local goth-industrial dance night! I usually wear brights or reds in the summer, but for tonight, I felt like getting my goth on, so I got out this great black-plum-red color, Essie’s “Carry On.” I think this may still be in stores, but I bought it last fall. It is definitely still sold on their website and many other sites. This is reminiscent of Chanel’s Vamp/Rouge Noir, only more on the plum side than the burgundy side of black. I hate to hear they re-released Rouge Noir last year and I wasn’t paying attention, because they now go for $150.00 on eBay. Thanks, Uma Thurmond.

Ok, so I did a quick and sloppy job, but I got it done, finally – a quickie mani pedi with Sinful Colors “Bleeding Heart,” my holy grail red for at least 10 years. I believe this is my 3rd bottle. I use thinners so I can use bottles up, too!

OK, it’s a bit sloppy but I’m getting sleepy! The thumb on my other hand is blue, since you know, not enough fingers for the rainbow. 😉
(Colors are in the previous post.)
Have a good weekend, everyone!
I’m stoked about the SCOTUS ruling yesterday making same sex marriage legal throughout all 50 states! I’m going to be doing some rainbow makeup tomorrow, but tonight, I thought I’d do a rainbow manicure as well, to show some support and because it’s Pride weekend and I’m feeling festive!

Ok, now that I have my colors, off to do my nails! If they turn out nice, I’ll update with a mani pic. 🙂
Today, I have a nice mixture of spooky and sweet going on – my claw midi ring and this lovely cool pastel purple nail polish, OPI’s “Do You Liliac It?”
I used Sally Hansen Cuticle Remover (blue gel of the gods), Nailtiques #2 as a base coat, two coats of the OPI color, and Poshe quick drying top coat. Honestly, this color had plenty of shine without the top coat!

Oh my GAWD, I love this color, you guys. It’s an apple green with yellow tones and lots of gold shimmer. It’s perfect for this late spring/early summer weather we’re having. I’ve got it on my toes and I’m going to rock my birthday sandals with it this week, too!

What’s on your tips and toes? Do you go and get yours done or do you do your own?
My manicure was looking pretty ratchet so I changed it up. Here’s a great pink for a pop of color against my monochromatic wardrobe – “Kiss Me On My Tulips” by OPI. And Seche Vite top coat for shine and durability!
The black smudges all over my hands are permanent marker, from work. It’s a reality of the job.
Hold on to your hats, color lovers, this electric cobalt blue nail polish is BRIGHT and it’s only $1.99 and found in just about every US drug store. I’m in love!
Sinful Colors Professional nail polish Endless Blue, $1.99
This cream formula is just the right consistency and goes on opaque in just 2 coats with no streaking. It’s shown here with Poshe fast drying top coat over it, because I’m a clutz and I have to use a fast dry top coat or I ruin every single paint job I do within minutes. 😉
At $1.99 and with such a great color and formula, I’m calling Endless Blue a WIN.
