So I must admit this is one of my least favorite manicures... I almost wasn't going to post it but I thought what the hell. So anyways I started off with a palette of gold and black and muted colors and basically just ended doing random crap on them. I was partially inspired by the awesome elsalonsito.com and this particular nail wheel;
I was too lazy to swatch these colors and take loads of pictures....so here ya guys go;
lastly, I ran out of nail polish so I guess these bad boys are here to stay until I get some.
 
So as the first "official" manicure of this new blog, I decided to make one inspired by the blog's design. So I gathered the colors I thought would be appropriate for this inspired manicure and got to work.
I started off with a white base...
I then did a gradual pink gradient, getting dark at the tips and using the fluorescent pink acrylic as the darkest color. 
I even added neon pink under the tips. (my first time trying this and I think it looks pretty awesome, pictures don't do it justice)
I finished off the look with a nail head inspired mint green triangle. 
 
Okay so this is my first post (as the title suggests above). Right now it feels like I am talking to myself (which I probably am, cause I'm pretty sure no one is reading this). 
This blog has been timed perfectly with my most favorite manicure ever....luckily it has lasted since last week so I could photograph it especially for this first post. woohooo.

It all started when I found the most amazing skin tone polish everrr. Nail pop- petticoat. The accent nail has actually lasted through two manicures. Enjoy!

    Helloo nail heads!
    Let me just start by saying I am by no means a lacquerista goddess....I am merely a graphic university student who has acquired a recent obsession with all things nails. 
    It all started with a couple bottles of nail polish and has blossomed into a collection of polishes, nail brushes, dotting tools, and stamping supplies. 
    So after a while browsing various nail sites, and discovering how many other people shared my passion I decided to start up this nail blog to keep track of my ever-changing nails.
