Chocolate Flowers



I soo wanted to title this How Rei Rei Got Her Groove Back lol. I haven't stamped in the longest time and although this isn't even complicated I really missed it! Nothing like a full stamping manicure to lift the spirits.
Details after the jump!


Zoya - Dream

Wow. Zoya... spot on naming this. This is my second time wearing this and I hate that it took me so long to wear it again! This is definitely going to be in my "I don't know what to wear" pile. There's just so much depth to it, it's gorgeous! Shown below is two coats with HK Girl top coat, but looking at this under bright light I could've gone for a third. But the VNL isn't as noticeable in person. Mmmmm mm!!!


Need more. In every color. There's also this extra photo set on my Instagram and this oldie :)

Polka Dot Jelly

I usually don't blog on Tuesday but here it is! Ah, I've been in such a nail art rut lately but I've got a cute idea for Easter nails so that's around the corner. And school is heading into the last month so I've got that to focus on, so I've only had time for quick manis. My favorite of those quick but cute designs/combinations... the jelly sandwich.

I think this is my all time favorite combinations. 2 coats L'Oreal Berry Jealous, 1 coat of OPI Polka.com and finish it off with 1 more coat of Berry Jealous and top coat.

I love this L'Oreal polish on it's on too. It's such a gorgeous vibrant berry pink and the formula on these is amazing. They had a whole collection of these and I regret not picking up more!


Macro mode washes me out terribly for some reason haha.

What's your go to color/design/cute nail combination?

April: Nail Artist of the Month


Hey all! I have something pretty exciting to share. Alaina from The Little Canvas has asked me to be her April nail artist of the month on her blog! Talk about flattering. 

It's a feature she's got running to give artists she loves a chance to show case themselves on her own blog. She asked me to create a little som'n som'n so head on over there and check my post for all the details on this striped water marble and stay a while and read her own posts about all her cute nail art as well!  :)

Soccer Mix n Match

I wore these to a soccer game last night! San Jose Earthquakes vs New England Revolution. Unfortunately SJ lost 2-1. Booooooo! But I still enjoyed the game and was happy the rain let up up so I didn't have to watch the game shivering and wet. Walking away with a Chris Wondolowski autograph wasn't too bad either. Also we didn't pay a cent! Freeee tickets!

Thumb, ring, and pinky are decals with Winstonia plate 103. Base color is Wet n Wild Listening to Blue Reed
Index is the Adidas logo with the same WnW color. I remembered the logo and how to do it with striping tape from this post from the Nailasaurus. Middle finger is China Glaze - Running In Circles. Green for the soccer field!
