The other day I had a girls day out with my girlfriends and wow I spent a bunch of money on polishes hehe... That day we went to Ihop and we walked around in Waikiki and did manicures...overall it was a fun day... I bought a couple of Zoya polishes and I did a fun dot manicure..
I used Zoya's Cheryl and Tallulah for this color scheme... I really liked this design and color but I decided to change the color scheme when I got home...
I used Blair and Pasha for my dot mani when I got home..
First I alternated every other finger with Blair and Pasha (*sigh* Blair is such a pretty deep ruby red...I love it...its such a dreamy color~)
Then using my dotting tool I placed 3 dots of Pasha onto my Blair fingers..I placed the 2 larger dots first then placed the small dot in after (I used the bigger end of the dotting tool to create the bigger dots and the smaller end for the small dots)
Then I put the Blair dots onto my Pasha fingers..
Voila!I'm glad I took off the blue/brown scheme.. I like this color scheme more.. it feels like its more feminine and I think the two colors compliment each other more then Cheryl and Tallulah...
and then here are some shots of my girl's day out manicure fun..
hehe our table spread out with all sorts of goodness...
This was my friend's mani..she used OPI- Meet me on the star ferry and Princesses Rule... this makes me want to pick up a bottle of princesses rule too ;)

Pink Sundae :3
Wow 20 followers..thanks for all your support! So my co-worker Jennifer just came back from her trip to Seattle and she bought me some polishes from the Julep Salon...so I decided to do a cute girly mani with them....
This pink color is called Reese and it has a nice bubblegum pink creme finish.
First I did two coats of Reese..(the formula was a bit thick but it wasn't bad where a little nail polish thinner couldn't fix)...
The purple (Anne) was hard to capture...it is actually a middle tone of the two pictures..I changed my mind after I took all the mani pics so I don't have pictures of my ring finger "in the process" of turning into purple.
Then I used Essie's- Little Brown Dress to create the "chocolate" sauce that "drips" onto the nail.
So its relatively easy, just use a rather thick coat of polish that you would like to use as the "sauce" and then from the top 1/3 of the nail just make random strokes to give it that drippy sauce effect.
As you can see it doesn't need to be neat or uniform on every nail it can be free-handedly done
For my purple nail I did a gold "sauce" I used Julep- Sienna.
Then for the "cherry on top" I added rhinestones to the top right corner to each nail. voila!
Now here's a peek at my stash of polishes ^_^
Here's all my OPI's and Sephora by OPIs
Here's China Glaze, Cult Nails, Nars, Seche Vite, Holo Top Coats, and Star Gazer polish
Here's my Zoya, Essie, Color Club, Milani,Nubar, Loreal, Sinful, Orly, and Jessie's Girl polishes
and my last box is my Revlon, Sally Hansen, Rimmel, NYX, random polishes from Hong Kong and my stamping polishes (konad and bp store)Pin It
