Cinderella nails inspired by MAC Cinderella!

  Hey guys! Today is Cinderella movie day yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not actually sure when I'll get to see it because we are in the middle of moving and things are a little crazy! Last week (or was it 2 weeks ago?) I stumbled across the MAC Cinderella collection. Some one I follow posted a picture of what she bought (from the first online launch I'm guessing) and I was like WHAAATTTTT! Cinderella has always my favorite princess, long time readers of my blog might remember when I made a running costume for the Disney Princess Half Marathon ;) My wedding was also (subtly and not so subtly) Cinderella themed! In recent times my interests have changed a little (more so each day I parent 3 hyenas boys.... ) I have been slowly getting into makeup the last few months (previously and my whole life I have been wearing very little.) And each morning I wake up just my face powder is not cutting it anymore if you know what I mean! It has...

Hey guys! I have another long overdue review for you, hopefully the folks at Scratch will forgive me! 5 minutes after I received these a few weeks ago we got the first ice storm and the kids were home for a week, then my son had a birthday and party, half my kids have been sick AND we are in the  middle of moving! It never stops, does it?? These are LIMITED EDITION nail wraps from Scratch this month! To get these you had to subscribe to their monthly box by the end of February (to get them first) or wait for them to be available to the rest of the public, which is NOW! :) They are designed by Rik Lee and are available now for $12. Here is the look I created with them! ( I will probably wear these through the weekend so I'll update with a wear test!)  Panda nails! Here is

Hey guys! I have a few more swatches for you today. I received these for Christmas from my friend Marcella of @lovepurplepolish  (they were on my wish list) And I just love them! They are textured polishes from Color Club, a brand I don't have a lot of! This is You're So Vain, a purple texture with firey gold shimmer. These aren't quite as textured as some of my liquid sands or pixie dusts, nor as sparkly, and I still love them! When I put this on a thought jumped in my head--this looks exactly like OPI Alcatraz Rocks! (my all time favorite polish) No wonder I was drawn to it! So I grabbed it and did a quick comparison. Can you tell which is which? On my index and ring finger is the CC and middle finger and pinky is OPI. Super similar, yes?? You're so Vain is so purple it makes Alcatraz Rocks look blue! I increased the exposure on this pic so you can maybe tell a little more. This is Obsessed, a darker green texture with teal shimmer through o...
