Of Marbles and Mattes.

Whoo, I'm up early. Just can't sleep, I guess. Whatever. I have a billion things to do, so I'm going to sit on my butt and post. Hahaha. So I figured I'd show off some marbly and matte manis (man, I love alliteration!) this morning. Let's just get right to it, I'm not too chatty until I've had my first coffee or ten.

Closing out June, finally.

Today I'll share the rest of my June manicures, and the last few transports I've done. I'm thinking about doing some work on the layout as well, and maybe I'll start doing something along the lines of "A Blog A Day" to feature some of the amazing blogs out there. Although I do tend to focus on nail polish and rescue animals more than anything else, this blog is rather a catch-all for me, and I'm fairly committed to making it interesting somehow. Also, I'd like to keep it interesting by changing things up. We'll see what I can come up with. For now, let's just look at the pictures.

A Purple-xing Color.

Yeah I know, silly title, but I'm feeling a little silly. Anyway, this post is going to feature some of the purples I have enjoyed so much. Onward to the pictures!

Onions have layers!

But this post is not about onions. It's about nail polish. I love layering different colors for different effects, and that's what I'm going to share with you today. So without further ado, these are some layering combinations.

Nail Polish; or My Pretty Nails

Anybody who gets to know me will find that I'm quite enamored of nail polish, and am willing to spend time nearly every day painting my nails, and making them look pretty. It's an indulgence that I wouldn't want to give up, as it's one thing that can look pretty, no matter how cruddy I look otherwise. My psoriasis is not attractive (yeah, duh), and affects everything. Because my skin is so sensitive, I have trouble with makeup. Because my scalp has so many spots, I have to try to cover bald patches, and my hair doesn't exactly style easily. Because it hurts to even move so often, I'm overweight, so fashion isn't really doable for the most part. But my nails, they can be pretty with just a little effort.
