Teal Tuesday Jelly Sandwich

Good Morning,
Today I have another jelly sandwich.  I am not 100% happy with the one I did last week but the colors had to go with the story which I really hope you enjoyed.  So, this jelly sandwich is more my style.  I used the new American Apparrel sheer neon in Pacific Blue and the jelly is KB Shimmer's fantastic, Clown Puke.

I think it is wild

Blue Monday

I hope everyone had a good weekend.  I know I did my sutures were finally taken off and I don’t feel so much pain.  They had been on a little too long and were starting to get infected and the good thing is that they did not mess with my belly piercing so I still have that.  I got that done when I turned forty just to say I had done something.  I don’t get tattoos as it is forbidden by my religion and if I don’t get cremated, I do wish to be buried in a Jewish cemetary. 
once again the weather in Houston is horrible.  It is raining but you never know here in Houston, it has the weirdest weather.  The morning could be plagued by thunderstorms and flooding then by 2:00pm. The sun is out and it is hot. 
Today I am showing you an beautiful Orly nail polish
it is called Lunar eclipse and it is part of the FX line and is just gorgeous.  If the sun catches it a certain way it  looks purple.  The good thing is that you can still buy it in stores, but for me I do all my shopping on the Internet.  I just have to be in the mood to shop outside my computer.
so, on this one I started with lunar eclipse and was going to use my new bundle monster plates to .  I was going to use plate bm301 but which sorta looks like snow falling but it did not work out so I randomly covered the the nail and had plate bm323 out and saw an image that was kinda lacy so, I stamped that diagonally using Konad black across the nail.  Then I put a top coat of essence special effects.  This a true case of serendipity.  I think they looked really but the plan just didn’t go through.  so as the saying goes when you get lemons thrown at you make lemonade.  I hope you like.
Ciao for now,
Patty

Green Gradient

I love the color green especially when it comes in a rectangular paper with some white in it.  So, I did this gradient not because of the paper but because of the color is so cool and just summer.  It is tropical and I used two holo nail polishes I used  China Glaze LBR GRHR and Nubar Reclaim, which by the way I think is the most beautiful green polish ever.  I stamped using my new bundle monster plates.  I love those plates and have been stamping crazy.   I thought I would be excited when I got my two DRK plates but these plates are driving me crazy.  I like want stamp every thing.  

Ciao for now,
Patty

The invention of the Jelly Sandwich

One day in a time that a lot of you were still not born a mother came home from work and called out to out to her daughter and said, "Honey, I stopped by that beauty store and bought you some of that perfume you like. The daughter's name who is Sally, runs to see her mom's purchase and sees it is a bottle of Charlie. Sally squeals with delight
"Thanks mom.".
Sally notices another item in the box. It is a bottle of nail polish. Butter London, Tea with the Queen, she immediately knew it wasn't for her.
Mom notices Sally looking at the polish and asks, "Do you like it?".
Sally says, "Nah, it is a " mom" color".
Mom says, "you can use it anytime."
The next day they woke up for breakfast and Sally noticed mom's nail polish. Mom asked Sally, "what do you think about. Isn't it a lovely color?"
Sally replies, "for older women." in a slightly sarcastic mood but there was something Sally was drawn to. It was a peachy pink color and looked really pretty on her mom's skin tone and thought it would look good on any skin tone.
Mom went to work and Sally went to school but she could not stop thinking about that polish. (a future polishaholic). As soon as Sally got home from school, she ran to the polish because sometime during Chemistry she thought of a way to wear her mother's polish. She had a bottle of Model's own Ibiza mix. She used two coats of the butter London and one coat of top coat, Seche Vite. It looked really nice and Sally thought to herself, I can rock this. at school the evil Sister Antionette told Sally her nails in no way were appropriate for school and she told her she better not see her hands with that stuff on her nails because girls who wear stuff like that only leads down an immoral path.
Sally's mother got home and Sally showed it to her mother. Sally's mom said, "it looks pretty on you, but I could never wear that. I am much too old to wear something like that." sounding a bit prudish. She told her mother what happened with the evil nun. Sally's mother told her not to listen to the nun and in no way does nail polish lead down an immoral path. We all have free will and we choose our paths.
While Sally' mom had been at work she thought of Sally's nails and did wish she could wear something like that. She got home and put a coat of the Model's Own Ibiza Mix it looked good but she felt it was too sparkly for day so she layered a coat of essence special top coat and ran out the door. All day at the office her co- workers raved about her nails. She felt like a queen.
That night Sally's mom and Dad had date night, having no time to change her polish she had an idea with her hand shaking she added a layer of topcoat. While Sally's mom and dad were eating the same old boring dinner and the same boring conversation. Sally's father told mom you look especially beautiful today. Sally's mother giggled and put her hands to cover her mouth. Dad reached to caress Mom's hands and he whispered to her why don't we take this food to go.
Meantime, Sally back at home fell asleep and forgot to take her polish off. Well as it turns out everyone in the household overslept the next day. Sally's mom ran in to wake Sally and told her mom that she forgot to take her polish off. They both thought what to do. They grabbed for the butter London polish and put a layer of polish on. Sally went to school and was greeted by the evil Sister Anionette. She looked at her hands but coudn't really see anything alarming. Sally giggled it off.
When she arrived home, she told her mother everything went ok and that is how the first jelly sandwich was created. And Sally, because of this incident on to own one of the biggest beauty supply stores in the country.

 Just a cute little ditty for today. Hope you like.  I guess what I am saying is that you can have a beautiful nail polish and wear it alone, you can add a glitter mix and then add a coat of the original color for you jelly sandwich but in all three cases you have three beautiful manicure it is just whatever you choose to do.

Ciao for now.

Candy Shop Deborah Lippman

I’ve really been finding some good deals on some  Deborah Lippman nail polish.  This is candy shop with very girly colored glitter.  the  formula was a little thick as I have noticed with all Deborah Lippman polishes so I just put some Seche Vite restore.  That is GREAT!  Not only for your seche vite but also for your nail polish.  The thing is it is hard to find.  They NEVER have it at my Sally’s or any one I wonder into.  Forget about Ulta.   They don’t have it and act like they don’t even know it exists so my advice to everyone is to buy it online.  there are several places you can get it.  Ebay, Amazon, Transdesign etc.  After a couple of drops of restore it went on great and one coat of topcoat and you are good to go.  it is great for when you are just feeling really girly.  OH, and I got this one for $13.50. 
ciao bellas,

Blue Monday

It is truly a blue Monday with the clouds out in the sky and being unable to eat next to nothing but I am thankful to be home from the hospital.  I got my bundle monster 2012 plates had to use them last night.  So, for this manicure I found some nail polish from Maybelline called the denim collection it is only 2 polishes and they are called denim wash and styled out for this manicure, I used styled out. The formula was good and it dried and allowed me to stamp well.  I’ll be honest I am not the best stampers and I do need to use the konad polishes if I don’t have a color I need  I usually get to mixing the color.  I am thinking of doing a gradient stamping color.  we will see ho that goes.  Maybelline can be purchased almost anywhere as you know but I did have to go to two walgreens to find these.  Price$5.00.
Caio for now,
Patty

Sorry no new posts

Caio, bellas

Stamping Plates

I forgot to let you all know that the bundle monster plates 2012 are now available for purchase at the bundle monster site. I also found a Loy of plates for Sale at the Ninja polish website. I haven' t ordered anything from them in a while and they were on vacation but they never put a notice out stating they returned and I have gotten no correspondence from them. I might place an order today. I'll keep you informed of what is going on. Also , llarowe will no longer be affiliated with Lynderella. The e-mail I got yesterday stated that Lynn might e selling out of eBay. Lots of changes. I'll let you know as I find out what is going on.

Another Lynderella

Today is Connect the Dots.  Which was so popular I think every indie has some variation of it.  I used the new black, it is a white, grey and pink  I used the pink on my pointer finger but to me it looks grey be surrounded by the white and grey.

I really like this polish.  You could wear it with so many colors and would look nice.this is not too girly but you can make it..  I am more on the girly side.  I see myself getting a lot of use out of it.  I think they will be taking orders soon if you want to order go to the Llarowe facebook page for more information.  Bottles run $15.00 a bottle.

Are you going to see Spiderman

I have to admit I have never seen the spiderman movies or read the comic books.  I just never saw how his powers could ever equal superman.  So, ask me about superman and I can tell you anything even come out with a line of nail polish.  I don't know if there is a lizard in the movie that is after spiderman or if as in live lizards eat spiders and that is why they name one of the OPI nail colors Spotted by a Lizard the color is really pretty but as you have probably heard a dupe for Chanel's periodot.  So, if there is an Lizard villian in the movie and you want to support him you can wear something like this.

Of course I used OPI's spotted by a lizard and my DRk-A plate.



If you are the romantic  and look forward to Spiderman getting the girl then you can wear something like this.

This is your web or mine and again I used my DRK-A plate and a spider from the bundle monster set 1 plate 5.

So, which ever way you go if you go see the movie enjoy it.

Caio for now.

Last night I got my Lynderellas

This is love, lilacs and lace and I think you have to be a really girly girl to wear this if you are not into really feminine looks this might not be for you.   I tried it over other colors and just could not get a feel for it to be it is best worn solo.  And here it is.

Do you think they are too girly?  Would you wear this color?

MAC Jumps on the Band Wagon

Well it appears that Mac has jumped on the band wagon and are going to carry a permanent line of nail polish.  I got this promotional e-mail from Temptalia, one of the queens of the beauty bloggers.  Enjoy.

Grafitti Nails

Over the weekend while my husband forced me to eat and drink what seems like a gallon of water,  I knitted and then felt like I had been away from the polish world way too long.  I felt withdrawal so, I started to go through a whole bunch of flyers I had and saw these on a sephora add.  I think they are really neat and most of all totally dummy proof.  You can't screw them up.  I used just a regular black polish and five of my metallic Klean color nails.  place a droop of each different color of polish on a piece of paper, then dip the polish with a toothpick down or across the nail alternating colors.   I put a top coat but it did not look right so I used Essence special top coat.  That is some really good stuff it is cheap and a great matte coat and believe me I have tried a lot of high end brands and I like this one the best.  So, save your money and get some of this stuff.  I buy mine at ulta.

Caio, bellas

out of pocket

Sorry no posts for a day or two . Got extreme
dehydration. It is hot in Tx. and was in hospital. I should know better and drink an electrolye drink once a day but it always takes that stipid hospital stay to remind me that i am more vulnerable because of a medication I take. Hope to get some stuff out tomorrow. I finally got three of my Lynderellas.
Ciao for now.

The Color That Started My Obsession

Hello, 
I hope if you got to prettynpolished restock you were able to get something.  I got party on my yacht, dakota, and the yellow one for gemini but it was a mini.  I am not disappointed though.  On Monday, KB Shimmer will have her opening at her own shop.  her website is kbshimmer.com.  You can see the polishes that will be going up for sale.  She also has a successful line of soaps, balms and bombs.  but her polishes are amazing.  I am definitely going to try to get Vegas Bomb.  you can see it on her facebook page.  So all that excitement happens you on Monday.
A couple of weeks ago their was a giveaway which no on won since no one entered.  I know it wasn't the greatest giveaway but it was something.   In a lot of these giveaways if you don't know something just skip it and you just don't get one  point you still get others.  I don't have an index that shows my stash or what giveaways there are.  but I blog about them on my blog.  please, don't think you can't win I won a give away Erika at polish fixation.com had.  I love it.  So, if I am telling you of a giveaway, I am also entering it and it is random.
Ok, now the color that made me stop the the crazy obsession to only have acrylics with black nail polish.  it is................OPI's  Lincoln Park After Dark.  It is still a winner.  As I was doing inventory, I found it and was just so happy.  I still love this color.  It is still a regular with opi so you can get it anytime.  I don't know anyone who did not have this color so today, I thank Lincoln

  Park .

Here she is..so pretty.

Well, Caio for now,

Patty

Polished and Pretty

Today, I am so excited because I am going to swatch my Pretty&Polished haul I purchased at the last restock on Etsy.  And Great News Chelsea is restocking again tomorrow at 8:00pm EST!  I am so excited because there were a couple of polishes I still wanted and now after such a short time I get a chance to buy some more.  Yay!!!!!!

I will give you a little bit of advice on getting what you want.  Got to the polished & pretty website on esty on the left there is a section that states sales and it will show you a list of their sales you can add them to your favorites and then when the restock opens you’ve got exactly what you want right there.  These polishes are great, they dry great, the price is right, and no one else has them.  So you can be the envy of all your friends or if you are like me spread the word and make it more beautiful one nail at a time.  Well wasn't that corny.  I sounded like some air head beauty queen answer her final elimination question.  Just check this out or any other line that suits your fancy.
