Hello, Fall!

Hey everyone!
Happy FALL! It's finally here! :D
What did everyone do during their first two days of fall?
I went to a football game on Saturday.
Today, I played softball all morning and took my doggie for a walk this evening.
It was really pretty. Visit my instagram for pictures ---->
I just did my nails, of course, inspired by the turning leaves of the fall.
I think the colors of fall are so beautiful! I wish I could have  captured it better in my nails.
I used the saran wrap method with three different colors. I used Sally Hansen Emerald City, Wet and Wild Sunny Side Up, and China Glaze Lemon Fizz.
Okay, here is the look!
 
 
 
Thank you for reading!
Just a heads up, I will be doing a giveaway once I hit 50 followers! However long that may take! :p
 
Up Next: Something floral!
C'est fini!

Good-bye, Summer!

Hey!
First of all, I would like to say Hello to all my new followers! Thank you so much!
I truly appreciate you all!
Today I really wanted to do a fun post saying "good-bye, summer!"
Since today is the last official day of summer (in the USA), there is no better time!
While I imagine some of you may be heart-broken that the warmest, most carefree season is over (unless you live somewhere warm all the time!), I know there are some of you who love fall!
Just like me!
:)
So... I wanted to do my nails of things that remind me of summertime.
For this manicure I used real sand that I brought back from Punta Cana on my pinkie - inspired by the beautiful beaches there. I also added a little silver starfish!
On my ring finger I used real jean material that I cut into my nail shape - inspired by cutoff denim shortie-shorts.
Then I did a orange-yellow gradient inspired by the warm summer sky!
Then I did a glitter-y blue/green combo on my pointer finger - inspired by mermaids!
Don't judge me, they ARE real! :p
I will list all the polishes used at the bottom of the post.
 
 
The colors I used were: China Glaze For Audrey on the pinkie. China Glaze Lemon Fizz and Essie Meet Me At Sunset on my middle finger. Essie Dive Bar, OPI Fresh Frog of BelAir, and Sinful Colors Hottie on my pointer finger. My ring finger is just jean held on my a base coat underneath and a top coat.
 
Some questions for you guys!
1. Would you like to see pictures of the actual polish?
2. Where are you from? I'm really interested! I think other cultures are amazing!
 
Thank you soooo much for reading! I really appreciate that you take time out of your day to visit!

Meet Me At Sunset

Today I'm bringing you a gradient manicure inspired by summer sunsets.
This is my first attempt at doing a gradient type anything, therefore it's a little messy.
However, I still enjoy it very much and my camera picked up the colors to a T.
Now that I have a method down you can expect to see more (and preferably better) gradients!
Also, I want to apologize for not updating since April, but I was extremely busy finishing up college.
[I graduated in May! :D]
Then I went on a wonderful vacation. After I got home I had to get used to the daily grind again, but
I'm baaack again so if you have any requests feel free to ask!
Oh yeah, don't mind the messiness, I did not have the tools to clean up properly! 

For this gradient I used Essie - Meet Me At Sunset and China Glaze - Lemon Fizz.
