Wet-n-Wild - SleepWalker, a closer look

I said a full mani, so here ya go...as I mentioned in the previous haul post...the more I look at it, the more I love it.
It's a pretty cloudy day out, so I didn't get the "ohh-ahh" sparkle, but I think you get the idea.

I think this is much closer to Fortune Teller than I had previously thought

Not too damn bad for .99 cents!

Way to go Wet-n-Wild!

Mini Haul

While killing time waiting for another store to open up, I was wandering around in Rite Aid....and found a few goodies.

(from left to right)

SleepWalker

Pumpkin Glow-In-The-Dark

Full Moon

Love Bite

Sleep Walker is from Wet-n-Wild's new collection, Coloricon

Take one look at it, and you'll know why I picked it up

Uh huh, it looks like Fortune Teller

But, alas, the glitter is too fine to give that true Fortune Teller look, but still, it has a really nice depth to the polish.

Even though the original  intent was to see if it was similar to 
Fortune Teller, the more I look at it, the more I really like it.
I may just put this on as a full mani and add the picture later.

Here you can see I've tested it with gloss and matte top coats

~*~

Than I picked up Full Moon from Sinful Colors Halloween collection, which the name is escaping me at the moment. None of the colors are unique, including this one, it's a shimmery gunmetal gray. But I've only 1 polish in this shade and it dried out on me....so this is a good replacement.

~*~

I picked up this pumpkin Glow-in-the-dark polish. What is there to say? It's glow-in-the-dark polish! How fun is that?

Oh yeah, I'll have a blasty blast with this one.

~*~

Sinful Colors Love Bite, also from their Halloween collection,

is gorgeous.

It is almost identical to one of my ALL time favorite China glaze polishes,

Blk-Bila-Bong

(indoors)

(in sunlight)

Love Bite is a black base with a very fine teal glitter, while blk-bila-bong is more of an all over teal black shimmer. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't capture the true color of these. But the difference so slight, you'd never know they were 2 different polishes. I wear this color on my toes just about all winter long. Love.Pure love.

Pleasantly Plum

A simple cascading design with this season's hottest color,

Plum.

NOTD

WOW, it's really been a crazy week, with kids going 

back to school, getting things in order for upcoming 

holidays and family obligations, I haven't had a free 

moment to look at the complete disarray my nails were in.

Finally getting a few moments to breathe today, I sat back,

gave my nails some good ole' TLC and finished up with a 

very simple but very pretty mani.

Digging through my KleanColor polishes, I pulled out all the Fall colors 

to get ready for many upcoming tutorials,

 and decided to use

Military Green, layered with Starry Meteor today.

KleanColor in - Military Green

KleanColor in - Starry Meteor

I think I've finally got my schedule back in order and will resume nail tutorials this week, but for a few days, I get to stare at these beauties!

 

PURSENICKETY!!!

All girls have their little obsessions. 

And when I say obsessions, I mean that one "thing" that you just always have to have...that "thing", that when you see it, your heart goes a-flutter and you start to salivate.

Don't lie, you know you do!

For some, it may be shoes....

for some it may be makeup, 

and of course let's not forget nail polish!

But I'll admit here proudly, that I've got a serious "thing"

for handbags.

Purses, pocketbooks, whatever you want to call them, I MUST have them. 

They call to me, begging me to take them home!

While wandering around on, BetterAfter 

they were having an annoucement for their latest sponsor,

Pursenickety

If you aren't familiar with Pursenickety, then you are seriously missing out!

They offer an amazing selection of purses/handbags, that are ALL the latest fashions, straight from top designers and runways.

And on top of all that, they were also offering a special 30% coupon.

How was I to resist?

Yup, I didn't.

So here is the bag that I chose, I'm SO in love with it!

* DROOLS*

Marie Giraffe Print Spy Bag, inspired by FENDI

Very well made, and with oodles of compartments

And I just love the handles!

If you are a bag slut like me, LOL, you MUST check out Pursenickety, but make sure you bring a bib, because there are countless bags to drool over.

And speaking of bags, while thrifting the other day, 

I found this little gem.

This GORGEOUS  Kathy Van Zeeland bag

This baby retails for $ 95. but I got it for 5 bucks!!

I really haven't a clue why I got so lucky finding it, or why anyone would give this to the goodwill,  the bag looks like it's never been used!

Their loss, MY gain! :D

I just love the little bobbles she always has on her bags.

So cute, these two bags, plus a couple of others will keep me smiling right through Fall!

Abstract Peacock

Inspired by the tail of a Peacock, I came up with this very simple, yet very stunning look for Fall.

Another Fall Haul

If you don't know this by now...I'm a horror junkie. 

Anything eery, scary or creepy and I'm like fat kid in a candy shop.

So naturally, Halloween is my favorite holiday, and

 when I saw China Glaze's collection, "Awakening", 

obviously I had to have it.

Who cares if I have similar colors already,

just the names alone made it a MUST have for me.

But the other reason why I got it was because

Ick-a-bod-y reminded me of Fortune Teller

I was one of those poor unfortunate souls that was WAY too late to grab this amazing little gem. 

And though I'd LOVE to get my hands on this color, 

I'm not really up to paying $38 on E-Bay.

(Yes, this was the latest bid I've seen on there)

After playing around with it, it's no replacement for Fortune Teller

SIGH.

But still, it is a great color and does have a similar effect when paired with a black base and topped with Matte Magic

I'm thrilled with the set, and can't wait to use them

In my travels, I also picked up 2 colors from Color Club's latest collection,

"Untamed Luxury"

Snakeskin and Soft As Cashmere, as well as Plum Luck

from  Sally Hansen.

Plum Luck is exactly that, a rich plum cream. While I love plum, we shall see about this color, because it dries a bit darker...and I want a more vibrant plum.

Soft As Cashmere is a cool grayish taupe. A definite go-to color for Fall.

Snakeskin is the real winner of the bunch. A metallic gunmetal gray base with gold shimmer. 

Ohhh yeah, momma likes!!

Can't wait to use these and see what goodies I can create with them!

Shabby Chic Summer Rose

Again, another request from a YT subbie 

(I'm actually catching up on my requests, YAY!)

She asked for a Summer rose design, and this is what I came up with.
I love Shabby Chic
