When my nails are long, I don't care for dark colors. However, I just went for a huge nail chop after an incident with a razor so I figured now is the time to get my vampy colors out of the way. Today I have Sally Hansen Midnight Drive, a dark inky blue polish with a slight shimmer.

Bee's Knees Lacquer Squatchin Around
6.04.2019
I missed the Fall 2018 PolishCon that was held in Minnesota, but I was really happy that I was able to purchase a VIP bag after the fact. In it was this GALAXY from Bee's Knees Lacquer called Squatchin Around. This polish amazing. It's got purple, blue and green all melded together along with some shimmer and rainbow reflecting holographic shards that just make it magical.
Morgan Taylor Bedazzle Me
5.28.2019
The finale in Morgan Taylor's Summer 2019 Rocketman collection is Bedazzle Me, a luxe glitter overlay that gives each color its own disco ball vibe. However, I was looking online and saw other people making this color opaque on its own, so I just had to try.
Morgan Taylor Sir Teal To You
5.21.2019
Continuing with the Morgan Taylor Summer 2019 Rocketman collection, today I have Sir Teal To You, which is a teal shimmer. It leans a little more green than blue but is still a really rocking shade.
Pretty & Polished Navy Pier
4.23.2019
Continuing to pull through the PolishCon Chicago 2016 box that I had by my desk and today is Pretty & Polished Navy Pier. The bottle shows a deep inky blue with gold and orange glitters and it also has some sprinkles of rainbow holographic reflective glitter in it too.
Lou It Yourself You Get A Polish!!
4.22.2019
I feel like I'm starting to see a small light at the end of the tunnel of my polish. It's a good feeling because I like just having polish that I want around. Today I picked up Lou It Yourself You Get A Polish!! from the PolishCon 2016 VIP bag. Now, the brand has since rebranded to Bluebird Lacquer so this polish is definitely a relic. This is a medium blue polish with scattered holo and blue shimmer.
Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab Buried Secrets
4.09.2019
One of my favorite things about PolishCon is learning about the new-to-me brands like today's Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab. This is Buried Secrets, which is a dark blue shimmer and was in the VIP bag of PolishCon Chicago 2016.
colors by llarowe Navy Pier
4.02.2019
This weekend I'm headed to PolishCon NOLA and I'm so excited. Not only am I getting to be around all my polish friends, but I get to hang out with a coworker who I haven't seen in almost 3 years too! (We work for the same company but in different states.) In slight celebration, I grabbed a colors by llarowe polish today from PolishCon Chicago 2016. This is a purple/blue duochrome with scattered holo. Up top with just the polish, the purple is shining through but what happens when I put it on and have my hand in the photo?
KBShimmer Hashtag You're It!
4.01.2019
I can't believe it's already April! This year is definitely going by fast but I feel like I say that every year. I'm trying to balance my blog out with indies and mainstream again especially as I go through and purge my polishes so today I have KBShimmer Hashtag You're It! from the Summer 2017 Summer Vacation Collection. This is a grape purple polish with holo glow flakes (silver?) that has a duochrome that looks sometimes more red, sometimes more blue. Mind blown yet?
Cupcake Polish San Antonio Shuffle
3.21.2019
Texas is huge but when I heard the Indie Shop was going to be in San Antonio in October 2017, I was super stoked. That's only about a 2.5 hour drive north of me so I packed up the car and drove up. One of the exclusives from Cupcake Polish was called San Antonio Shuffle and it was a purple/blue polish with blue shimmer and subtle holo. I snatched it up.
Morgan Taylor No Filter Needed
3.15.2019
TGIF! Today I decided to use the blue neon from the Summer 2017 Selfie collection from Morgan Taylor called No Filter Needed. This blue is leaning into turquoise but less green and is actually super flattering.
Tonic First Kiss
3.08.2019
So far every single Tonic I've pulled from my stash has been so unique from anything I've seen. Today's polish First Kiss is no exception! This was in the VIP bag for the PolishCon Minneapolis. I wasn't able to attend last year but I was able to buy a VIP bag after the fact and I'm so happy about all these pretties!
China Glaze Teal the Fever
3.07.2019
I'm still clearing off my desk and didn't realize that I had China Glaze Teal the Fever sitting here from the 2017 Glam Finale collection. This is a blue/green glitter sitting in a clear base.
Darling Diva After Party
3.06.2019
Today I've got an oldie for you! Back in 2016, there was an event called Cocktails & Colors which was kind of a precursor to PolishCon & Indie Shop as far as having an organized group of nail polish makers and bloggers in one spot (obviously the later are more convention type with selling). It was held in Las Vegas and was always a nice time. One of the items in the swag bag that was provided was from Darling Diva called After Party.
KBShimmer Breaking Blues
3.04.2019
The other day, my awesome son (who turns 4 in May) decided to grab a bottle of nail polish off my desk and paint all over himself, my keyboard, my desk and a bit on the floor. It prompted me to clear off my desk and I realized I have over 50 just cluttering up here so I'm on a mission to get all the polish off my desk. Today I grabbed KBShimmer Breaking Blues which was in a mystery pack that I purchased from their website. This is a periwinkle blue creme.
Girly Bits Nameste Up All Night
2.07.2019
The other half of Pam's gift to Jen from the "Oh Baby, Baby!" trio is Namaste Up All Night, a grey to soft blue thermal. After spending many a night up with my last newborn (who is almost 4!), this polish spoke to me in ways.
Starrily Light Up The Night
2.04.2019
If you've been following my Instagram, you've noticed that my nails are ridiculously long right now. Like, longer than I've had in years. My favorite manicurist left her salon and I haven't been to her new place (not sure I will) so I just let them grow. Then on Friday, I broke one on my Cindy hand (the hand that does all the work), so I decided before I went for a big chop, I was going to try out all my thermals I've had on my desk. Today is Starrily Light Up The Night, a deep teal blue to nude/shimmer polish.
Sally Hansen x Crayola Deep Space Sparkle
2.01.2019
I'm at the finale of the Sally Hansen x Crayola Glam Rock collection with Deep Space Sparkle, a charcoal metallic. I thought this would be more black than blue but it's still neat.
Sally Hansen x Crayola B'Dazzled Blue
1.29.2019
I'm getting into the final polishes of the Sally Hansen x Crayola Glam Rock collection and these last 4 are all dark and vampy. Today is B'Dazzled Blue, a sapphire blue metallic. I have high hopes for this one.
Sally Hansen x Crayola Metallic Seaweed
1.28.2019
Another week! I can't believe we're almost into February - last year was both a blur but also feels SO long ago. I was really interested in today's color - Metallic Seaweed in the Sally Hansen x Crayola Glam Rock collection. This metallic teal may just make my purge.
