Color Club Modern Mosaic Collection (part one)

Hey guys!! I'm super excited to show yall these! This is the new Color Club Modern Mosaic collection, filled with matte teeeeeeeny tiny glitters! I found this in my Bed Bath and Beyond (purchased myself, with coupon) and I don't even think they are officially released yet! There's a ton of pics so I'll just get right to them with my thoughts at the end!

In this post I will show all of these polishes on a bare nail, which is not really how they are intended to be worn, I don't think....but I wanted to show yall the actual colors. More on that later! Each of these swatches is 2 coats, no base or topcoat!


This is Pixi-lated, a mix of dark fuchsia, light fuchsia, and white glitters. The overall effect is pink!

Next is Orange Crush, which is actually a mix of white, peach, and yellow glitters. The overall effect is orange, but because of the actual colors of the glitters I don't totally hate it! :) This one was the thickest of the bunch, kinda goopy.

This is Green Piece, a surprise favorite! If you like green then you need this! It looks great over so many colors! (more on that later!)  It is micro green and white matte glitters.

Next is Blue Beaded. Blue and white micro glitters. Love!

Going into it this was my fav, so I thought I'd show it with one coat, which is what most of these look like with one coat. This is Love You To Pieces, a mix of white,purple, and blue micro glitters. The overall effect is purple but it's very similar to the blue!

Last is Subway Station, a mix of gray and white glitters. Boy, yall, I am on the fence about this one. It kinda looks like cement, no?

OVERALL THOUGHTS:
I love these!!!!!!!!  I'm pretty sure these aren't meant to be worn on their own, I wanted to swatch them that way first so yall can see the actual colors. Tomorrow I will have a post showing how they look over some basic colors! I had to break it up into two posts because I had sooooooo many pictures! I'll link it here when I have it posted!
 
 
Here are some fun macro bottle shots I took and put together in a little slide show on my IG. I decided at the last minute to include them here!

Rock Star Baby Shower Cake

Hey Yall! Blogger is finally up and I finally have a few minutes, albeit while the boys are recreating the Indy 500 with their fire trucks in the playroom while I'm on my new mini-laptop (yay)....I'm gonna try to get some of the cakes I've made in the past month up! First up is the baby shower cake. It is half vanilla with vanilla buttercream and half chocolate with chocolate buttercream. I wonder how many pieces they had to cut to find some on both halves, because after I got the fondant on I had no idea where the division was! I asked for a picture of the bedding so I could have something to coordinate with. The only request was the cake flavors, so I could come up with anything! Here's the result.... I modeled the top like the bass drum and made panels around the sides to depict other scenes in the bedding. I'm pretty happy with my guitar...I totally free-handed cut that out. I've stated several times before...I'm not an artist, so that was a pretty big d...

Disney Cruise Nails 2017

Image
Hello fellow land dwelling friends! We are back from our vacation where we went on another Disney Cruise! We have done a few now and they have been the best trips our family has ever been on. This was our first voyage on one of the classic ships. Can not recommend enough! This was the longest cruise we have done, and I took the most footage ever. It will take me a little bit to sort through it all! I plan on several blog posts and a video. I can't decide whether to divide it up by day or category (food, entertainment, ports, etc) so I'm open to any and all suggestions! I'm starting today with the mani I created and wore the whole time! I was really indecisive about what to do, and therefore waited until the last minute to do these nails and was up entirely too late the night before we left! Once I finally decided on a color palette this is what followed, 2 hours later!
