Nails: Exam Mani

I forgot to share with you guys what I wore for my exam! I tweeted a picture, but here it is in all its glory!

I went with Zoya Savita, an awesome dark, matte blue-purple, and Finger Paints Motley.





That last picture is the closest to what it actually looked like. The other pictures are a bit washed out.

I'm really bad about choosing what polishes to layer - I always want to stay within the same color family - blue glitter over blue polish, green flakie over green polish, etc - so this was a bit of a stretch for me to layer a blue/green flakie over a purple polish, even though I stayed within the "cool" family.

I like how it came out. Very retro. I hope it brought me luck. I don't feel very strong about that last exam, but hopefully it was enough!

Here is a fun pic I leave you with! My husband's tomatoes! They're getting plump! Can't wait to eat them!!

  7. I love this. So pretty! I hope that you did well on your exam. I cant wait for homegriw tomatoes. I completely forgot to start my tomato seeds this year, so I'll have buy some plants from the garden store this year.

  8. What a gorgeous mani!!!

    As far as Fyrinnae goes, I have always had a good experience with them. I have made about 5 or 6 orders from them. I ALWAYS get my package in about a week or so, a week and a half at the most.
    I have noticed that lately, their site has not been down as much as it has in the past. And although it bugs me that their site is down, it is understandable because there is only 2-3 workers and they get an overwhelming amount of orders.
    Hope that helps :)

  14. Wow very pretty! I'm so jealous of people who have the Fingerpaints flakie collection. I only have Twisted which I bought way over price, but I couldn't help it, I guess that what nail polish addicts do :P
