Hello lovelies, it's finally Friday! Do you guys have any plans for the weekend? I'm not one to make plans ahead of time, but I definitely want to get out of the house. The weather keeping me indoors is starting to make me stir-crazy, to say the least. Especially with my little puppy tearing everything to shreds. Fun, fun. Anyway, for today I'll be sharing another fabulou…

Almost the weekend and it's looking like beautiful clear skies. Could it be we are nearing Spring and leaving all this snow behind? I really hope so, because the more I play with pretty pastels the more I want the sun. But I probably just ended up jinxing us all, you're welcome Jersey haha. Anyway, today I have swatches for Love Sprinkles by Sinful Colors. I've had the…

Hi guys. Whoa, what's this? A new design for Manicured and Marvelous! It has been a year since I redesigned things and I felt it was long overdue. I'm really hoping you guys like the change as much as I do. I can't wait to hear what you think! Now let's talk polish, shall we? A few weeks ago, I made my first purchase with Virtuous Polish and got the entire Women o…

Hiya guys. I hope you guys are having a good day with what ever you may be up to. It's time for my favorite day of the week and one of my favorite television shows, Pretty Little Liars. It's getting a little bit harder and harder to come up with red color-schemed manis for Red Coat Tuesday. But we're getting down to the season finale of Pretty Little Liars with on…

Hi guys. It's the start of another week in terrible cold weather in Jersey. We had snow on the weekend, so I was pretty much stuck at home doing a lot of nothing. It's almost March and I cannot believe the kind of weather we're still having to deal with. Mother nature you're drunk, go home and take the snow with you. Speaking of March, our next holiday is almost among…

Hiya guys. After a long week at work, it's finally to get the weekend started. Unfortunately, it's so cold outside and snowing that I will be spending all of it stuck at home. Good thing I have quite the untried stash to burn through. Top of that pile was this beauty right here, Masked Affair by L'Oreal. Yes, the brand a lot of us tend to walk right past in the drugsto…

Hiya guys. How's it going today? I cannot believe I made it in time to post this weeks prompt for the Nail Crazies Unite group. Last night, I decided to take a nap and I may or may not have slept till almost midnight. Spoiler alert... I did. That meant I had maybe an hour to get a mani together before taking care of the puppy and going back to bed. As I've always said…

It's Hump Day!  I only wish there was a little bit more prep in my step, but I'm feeling under the weather again. I think it's one of those things that's not going away and only intensifies or lessens depending on how cold it is. Unfortunately, it's extremely cold in Jersey and only due to get worse over the next few days. Someone send some sunshine our way please…

Hiya guys. Due to the terrible weather, I had no work yet again today. Hooray for short work-weeks! I was not expecting it whatsoever, but it ended up being a nice surprise when I woke up this morning. It's Tuesday today and that only means one thing around here... Pretty Little Liars time. I know some of you guys aren't a fan of the show, but who isn't a fan of r…

Happy Monday! Hopefully you guys are enjoying a nice day off from work like I am. Good thing too because temperatures have dropped even further here in Jersey and now we have the added wind factor. Definitely no fun times being had here. But there is always a plus side and that's what I'll be showing you all. Today I have swatches of the Downtown Collection by Bundle Monster,…

TGIF! It's finally the end of the week, what are your plans? This weekend temperatures are going to drop even further in Jersey. It's mid-February and it's very much winter, unfortunately. For today, I have some beautiful polishes that hit close to home in this winter weather. The swatches I'll be showing are part of the Winter Collection by MTL Creations. Let's t…

Hiya guys. How's it going? Today I have everyone's favorite kind of mani... watermarble. Not really, haha. The key to marbles is simple, it's all about the polish you use. Luckily, I was able to score the entire Pipe Dream Polish a few months back and these are perfect to marble with. I'm dreading the day I run out, because I use these so frequently. Time to s…

Happy hump day! My favorite day of the week because it means it's almost time for the weekend. Kind of like the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm in full on flu-mode or coming close to it, unfortunately. Not to worry, I'm already drinking some meds. I need to be healthy for Valentines weekend, because I know my hubs has some plans for us. Or at least I'm hoping he d…

Hiya guys. How's it going today? I've been so anxious to go home already and play with polish. It's so frustrating when inspiration hits and I'm stuck in the middle of work. Of course, I'll go home and my mojo will be completely missing in action. I'll be left to sing 'baby come back to me' to myself as I play the worlds smallest violin. That&#…

Hiya guys. How many of you are stuck in the snow or just generally freezing your nails off? I'm at work, but there's no heat in the office or very little. This is not ideal. But weirdly enough it's perfect for the polish I'm rocking right now. No, I haven't completely lost my marbles haha. I'm talking about the fabulous-ness known as thermal polishes! This aft…

Hiya guys. Thank you for all the happy wishes, I had a fantastic anniversary and weekend with my hubs. It's always nice to spend some time on time with him, just the two of us. Spending the weekend away from my nail corner has given me all sorts of inspiration. This week you'll probably be seeing a bit of double posting, but it will be well balanced from review to nai…

TGIF guys. It's my three anniversary today with the hubs! We met three years ago playing an online video games and the rest was history. We're seriously a nerd story come true, haha. Now I'm not usually into romance or things like that, but I'm really looking forward to my date tonight. Of course, my nails have to look the part too. Today's polish couldn't hav…

Hiya guys! I apologize for not updating yesterday, I think I experienced a bit of blogger burnout. Between work, feeling really sick, and having too much to do in a limited time I nearly hulked out. Simply put, I had to walk away from it all for a day and get some rest. That was a lot harder than it sounds, especially with so many pretty polishes waiting to be swatched. Like a lot of…

Hiya guys, how's it going? I almost didn't have time to do nail art last night. It wasn't like I was crazy busy with anything, I simply fell asleep. That kind of struggle is always the hardest for me, haha. By the time I ended up waking up, it was almost midnight and I had maybe a half hour to come up with something. No pressure. Sometimes I think I end up doing s…

Hi everyone! Happy Monday. I've had a whirl wind morning rushing into work in the icy snow. Not fun. I had to drop off my hubs at work, because his car wouldn't start. We're like the family of car trouble, haha. Here's hoping this all gets resolved quickly and more importantly without breaking the bank. A girl needs her Valentine polishes after all. Speaking of which.…
