NAGG - Day 6: Neon Tribal Nail Art


Hello, all! So I'm hoping that after today's post I will finally be back on track with the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go challenge! I was technically supposed to do post these yesterday, but I was just so exhausted from work that the thought of editing photos made me cringe ;) I am once again sleepy tonight so I'll keep this post short and sweet. 

Today's theme for the NAGG challenge is Neon! And, because I haven't done tribal in forever, I decided on a neon tribal look.

NAGG - Day 5: Blue and Orange Daisy Nail Art


Hello, all! Sorry for my brief hiatus - this cold really took it out of me. If that wasn't enough, I had planned on posting this look yesterday so that I would be back on track with the Nail-Art-a-Go-Go challenge, but my cable and internet provider decided to take a dive in our area all weekend so I'm only just able to use the internet. I don't know how we ever survived without the internet...I was dying without it! 

Day 5 of the NAGG challenge is contrast! Which is wonderful for me because some of my favorite color combos are contrasting colors, particularly, orange and blue. And I mean, were you really expecting anything other than awesome florals for this?? ;)

The Beauty Buffs - Yellow Trend - Nail Art


Hello, everyone! The Beauty Buffs are back with another set of nail, fashion and beauty looks and this week's trend is Yellow! Personally, I love yellow. I know it's a tough color to wear and it often clashes with skin tones, but ugh, it's just so lovely and bright and cheery :) 

I wanted to create a look the encapsulated the bright cheeriness that the color evokes for me, while also creating something that was somewhat fashion forward and chic. I was browsing the web yet again for inspiration, and came across this grouping of yellow outfits for spring/summer. I of course fell in love with the outfit sporting the yellow and black (you guessed it!) flowers! The second look from the right in the inspiration photo spurred this mani forward and I think I like how it turned out.

Happy Earth Day! - Nail Art


Hello, all! Happy Earth Day! I love the idea behind today so much and even though it was late when I realized the date, I knew I had to do some Earth Day nail art :) 

I did an Earth Day mani last year and really loved it (and it was actually featured in a Divine Caroline Earth Day mani list!) so I really wanted to try something again this year.

NAGG - Day 4: Monochrome Floral and Lace Nail Art


Hello, all! Hope you had a great weekend - mine was good until I got sick :( I'm really struggling with it right now and it took me about 5 hours to get this mani and post together because I kept needing breaks. Really hoping I feel better soon, but I'm not going to hold my breath. 

Despite the plague I've acquired, I really wanted to get back on track for the NAGG challenge since I wasn't able to get my post up last Thursday. In a perfect world, I'll post again tomorrow with the next challenge theme, but we'll see what happens! I also have my final Digital Dozen look to get out so I may be playing catchup for awhile ;) 

Anyway, day four of the Nail-Art-a-Go-Go challenge is Monochrome!
