Sad Day... :( RIP Sarah Burke

Today (the 19th) Canadian freeskier Sarah Burke passed away due to injuries from a crash in Park City on the 10th. She was a six time X Games medalist and was a main reason ski halfpipe will be included in the Sochi Olympics in 2014. She did so much for her sport and touched a lot of people. X Games won't be the same without her(it's next week & i'm sure they will do something for Sarah). It's also a SUPER bummer that she won't be around to completely shred the crap outta the pipe in Sochi.

So it's Thursday(or it was lol) and I usually do my nails on Thursdays. I had last week's polish off when I heard the news about Sarah. I thought about doing something for Sarah on my nails but I was just super bummed out, I wasn't sure. I went on google to try and get some ideas and nothing was really jumping out at me, I mean I had a few ideas but I don't know, I was in just a weird mood.

Two hours later, and all I had were colors picked out. Then I got an idea & just let my hands go from there. So here is the little something I did to honor Sarah Burke. She will be so unbelievably missed and thought of everytime someone drops into the pipe.

If you would like to donate to Sarah's family to help pay for her medical bills there is a fund set up. http://www.giveforward.com/sarahburke

Fashion Bug Fun Fuschia Swatch and Design

I'm back! I sit on a thrown of lies. I said on my facebook page Tuesday that I would upload this yesterday and I didn't. But here I am today! :)

I got this polish from a friend for Christmas and I immediately loved it. I love bright colors in my wardrobe and on my nails even though I'm paler than pale. I was thinking ahead when it was time to paint my nails because tomorrow I'm planning on wearing pink which will go perfectly with my nails(I love coordinating). Not only is this polish bright, but it also has sparkles in it, and who doesn't love sparkles?!

The flash definitely made the color darker, but you can see the brightness and the sparkles. I have another fashion bug polish that I'm excited to try after wearing this. Should be fun!

Now here is what I did after I swatched. It took me two hours lol because I couldn't decide what design I wanted to do. After a while I just went at it & let my hands decide what I was gonna do.

Baby Shower Nails

My friend is having a baby and her baby shower is tomorrow. I got some new polishes resently(I took pics & the post will be following I'm not lying this time lol, although I wasn't lying before I just kept forgetting) and I was gonna try some out but then I remembered the shower so I didn't. So next time I'll be all over those new pretties! There is also a zoya promo going on right now that I think I'm gonna have to skip, sad face, only because school is coming up and I'm gonna need the money(stupid school). Anywho, back to the post. Here is the pic of my baby shower nails. After I post this and the polishes I have to paint my other hand lol.

New Years!

Wow this year went by so fast! So many things happened this year. I crossed off 3 things from my ever growing bucket list, and here's hopin' i cross off more in 2012! Today is my best friend's birthday and I'm so excited!!! I'm about to eat my weight in mini weenies and get super hyper off a bunch of sugar. I wrapped her present last night and it looks gorgeous! Best thing I have ever wrapped it looks so pretty! I'm kinda sad because I know she's gonna open it but then I get all excited again cause I know what it is and she's gonna love it! It's gonna get a lot of use. ;)

Here are my New Years nails:


And hey, I might as well show you all my awesome wrapping skills so here is my best bud's present:

It's pink like her, cause she's a girl. lol inside joke. :) Hope everyone has an awesome New Years Eve, and an even better 2012.
