Aggies Do It Better

Happy Halloween! Or Holo-ween, hahahaehhhhhhh :) For my final Halloween look I was all set to go orange and green, pumpkins and green chevrons, so basic! I even had it sketched out and polished pulled. But I changed my mind last minute and wanted to do something totally different. This is the mani I wore all weekend and will wear until tomorrow! I figured I didn't want to be stuck wearing orange for several days, and when I was looking around my indie drawer I landed on Bliss Polish Flashlight, a gorgeous midnight blue holo polish inspired by the movie Pitch Perfect 2 :) I'm not as crazy into holo's as most of the nail community is, but this one is gorgeous!  I did a tiny bit of stamping with my Pueen Halloween Party 01 plate (aka the only Halloween plate I own) and China Glaze Check Out That Silver Fox, which is super opaque metallic polish I thought might be good for stamping and it was! I don't have any stamping-specific polishes. On my ring finger is Zoya Im...

Hey guys! This is a long over due post since I stopped posting a blog for every mani, only swatches for the most part. I keep procrastinating this one for some reason! I will be posting these every few months to document my real-life manis and continue marking my untried polishes as "blogged"! It helps me when I want to thin the herd, haha. So these are the polishes I wore in November and December of 2015.     Loaded Lacquer Tiki Torched (untried). I can't remember if this was 2 or 3 coats, but I loved it!  Add caption Tiki Torched with Love Angeline A Twinkle in my Eye (untried)- after a day or so I broke out my vinyls and added a little accent of this rose gold glitter. I loved it! In November my town got our very own Ulta! Yippee! Before I was having to drive 25 whole minutes, and before those opened (all in the same year!) I had to go 45 min. I never wear orange but I had to to celebrate! I wore OPI Where Did Suzi's Man-go? and All ...

Hey guys! Its the last day of June-whoa! I haven't been blogging much this month, I've mostly been just enjoying trying out and wearing some of my newer polishes! Most of these have been posted on Instagram but I need to document them here so I can mark them with my little sticker system! I thought I would type up a couple thoughts on each before we head to the pool- I'll keep it short because my keyboard is being super wonky! This is Loaded Lacquer "Double Shot of Sriracha". Let's be honest, I bought this for the name! I'm not as super in to holos as a lot of people, but this is gorgeous! It photographs a little darker than it is. It's pretty sheer on the first coat, but surprisingly opaque on the 2nd! I'll probably do 3 coats the next time I wear it though. Loaded Lacquer Sriracha Loaded Lacquer Sriracha This is Polish My Life "Birthday Suit", a really pretty creamy nude that almost glows against my super tan-at-the-momen...

Hey guys! This weekends post is all about the April "Pipe Down This Love Is Bliss" box! I'm actually getting a post up about it in the same month! Whaaaatttt!! You can read my post about my first box from January Here! I haven't picked up one of these boxes since January. I kind of liked the February box but I needed to be on a major no-buy! And after all the MAC Cinderella stuff I bought...well, yall know. I've been in the poor house haha! I wish I could pick up all these boxes! But I need to be more discretionary with my polish spending bc my stash is becoming a little larger than I'd like (kind of). As soon as I saw this box, I knew I would be getting it! The star for me is the Polish my Life polish, called "A Sea of Diamonds". I'm SUCH a sucker for colors like this! GAH! Its a major weakness, I know. The theme for this box is "Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend" :) The polishes are, from L: Love Angeline "Canary Diamon...

Hey guys! I don't know why I'm so tardy getting this post up but seeing as how I have the April box to blog about I feel like I should post this first! haha! I posted this mani awhile ago on Instagram. I created a little mani with all 4 of these polishes...they go so well together! I suppose I may swatch these on their own at some point! I used the Pipe dream polish in another mani since that I posted here  ! It has been really fun in the past few months getting more interested in and experience with indie polish brands! You really have the opportunity to get to know the makers, and they share your passion because they are polish lovers too. The theme in this box was "Baby it's Cold Outside" so all of them are wintery themed and named :) (ps.....these polishes are no longer available! sorryyyyyyy!!! They only make about 35-40 sets of these, and it can get quite competitive getting your hands on one if you decide to get it!) The polishes in this box are: the ...

Hey guys! Today I have my first nail art (well, on one nail anyway) since Valentines Day! I can't believe it. Well, actually, I can. Moving and unpacking and being still in the middle of the school year has been insane! But I'm finally at the point where I've done enough unpacking where I feel like I can devote a little time to my nails again. Hooray! Bliss is a brand that is still a little new to me, I only have one before this and its from the January "Pipe Down this Love is Bliss" box  (which I never got around to doing a post on but I will soon AND I picked up the April box too!) Yvette of Bliss Polish has been a woman on a mission to collect all of the Starbucks "You Are Here" mugs (yall saw the one I have in this post about my new coffee routine. ) She has an amazing collection so far! She reached out that she still needed a few and Nashville was on the list because the first person to offer it didn't pan out. In return she is offering a mu...
