The Digit-al Dozen Does Childhood: Bonus Mani - 90's Throwback Skittles

Digit-al Dozen is only five days out of the month, but I have an extra bonus mani from our Childhood theme this week!

I had done this mani, but wasn't a fan after it was finished, so I put it on the back burner to post only if I didn't get something done I liked better, but I decided to go ahead and share it anyway.

Dark & Light Skittles

Today's mani is a sparkly/marbley/dotty/bowy mish mash!

Strawberry Banana Taffy Nails

Soon I'll have the entire new collection from Barielle swatched for you, but today created a look with one of the polishes, because I got a glitter polish in a swap from @c_michelangelo that reminded me of strawberry banana taffy.

Yea, that stuff! The best flavor! :)

And of course, the mani inspired by it:

The final Born Pretty Store product I have for this round of reviews is pretty cute!

Itty bitty gold metal bows!

Christmas Day Mani - Green Glitterbomb + 3D Bows

Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates it! I'll be celebrating the holiday with family today and wanted to wear something festive but not overly, in-your-face Christmasy on my nails.

Studded Hearts & 3D Bows on Blue, Silver, and Nude

When I got Rimmel London Blue Eyed Girl, I wanted to pair it with something, but had no real plan for this mani. I threw on Caramel Cupcake and Julep Missy (silver) to accent it, but decided the mani still needed something more.

Twinsie Tuesday - Cutesy and Girly Nails

This week's theme is, obviously, a cute and girly manicure. When I think "girly", I think of rhinestones, glitter, and bows in pink or purple. Since pink is probably the most "girly" color there is, I went with my second option: purple, in an attempt to be a little different.

Born Pretty Store Acrylic Brush Set Review

At Born Pretty Store, these brushes are $7.00 and definitely worth it!

I love that they are basically their own little storage pod! So handy! 

It makes for absolutely wonderful storage and brush protection!

Born Pretty Store - Acrylic Review

I got a set of acrylic powders and acrylic liquid from Born Pretty Store to share with you today!

Clay sculpting is another hobby of mine, though I don't do much of it anymore. In a sense, working with acrylics is similar, so I've always been really interested in trying it out. Now, I'm not a big advocate of a full acrylic overlay because then it has to be sanded or filed off, which can destroy your natural nails!

From the Vault - Red Half Moons with Bows and Stones

I had just gotten a few of the Kleancolor Chunky Holo polishes when I did this mani. I believe this is also what began my obesession with those big, white bows! ^.^

Sonogram Says...

Itty Bitty broke "the curse". I'm excited! ^.^

Bows and Glitter Galore

Quite a while ago, I did a look similar to this one. I can't find the post to refer you back to, so here's what it looked like:
