My little Slice of Heaven Looks Like a Slice of Watermelon!

Hiya beauties!

I used the template designer to have something with more color.  I was taking photos of my lot from * A Dash of Sparkle *, and I noticed her blog is gone.  :o(

Well I noticed I like taking my photos against dark backgrounds, most of them seemed to be brown so I decided to change this blog up a bit.

Let me know if this is too blinding for you as I think I may tone it down a little bit, and I want to keep the text easily readable.

I will post photos soon!

Also, I am going to be giving away Opulent Cloud and a couple goodies soon.  This giveaway will not be a big one.

Later lovelies!

Holy Toledo!! | Haul from Nationwide Nail Supply


Okay!
I've been to Nationwide Nail Supply in Houston so many times in the past, but I drove by a few weeks ago and realized that I have not stopped by in so long.

So I wandered in and was mesmerized by how much more they have now than they did 2 almost 3 years ago.  (Of course they would have more)
They have two double-sided OPI stands with so many new colors and some that I have wanted for quite some time, but did not want to pay a good bit of money for.

They also had a large China Glaze rack, an Essie rack, Color Club Rack, Art Club Rack, an isle of Chelsea and others like it, Orly and the entire collection of Zoya Polishes.

Ahhh!  I was kicking myself after seeing it because they Zoya's were less than $4.00 each!

Anyway...I grabbed the polishes below, OPI Lint-Free Wipes 150ct for $1.00, and Qtica Vanilla Plum Hand Scrub for only $6.00!!!!  Woohoo!  I love this scrub!

They are meant to be wholesale, and the prices I got were from the owner.  Depending on when you come in you can either get things for less expensive than other places or you can get them for less, less, less (I repeat) less expensive than anywhere else I have ever seen, but if you have a license you can get everything for even less than that!!



The top row are polishes that I got for the 259 followers Giveaway.  :oP
(Yeah, that's how long ago this was taken)
CG OMG, OPI DS Extravagance and OPI Glow-Ink in the Dark.
The bottom row has CG OMG, OPI DS Sapphire, Glow-Ink in the Dark, Exclusive (I already owned Extravagance) and Chelsea Kaleidoscope.

Until Next Time!

Golden Rose - Scale Effect | Red/Orange/Pink


Darn!  I just realized that I had several draft posts!
Here is another one of the polishes I received from Edita at AllYouDesire.
This is a Golden Rose Flakie.
It looks red/orange in the bottle, and with one coat on the nail it shows up as a pink sheer.



As with all flakies, this one looks great layered.

Hello Ladies!

 
Phew!  Things have been hectic here.  I've been receiving everyone's entries, and I really enjoy hearing your stories.  :o)
 
My husband and I went to College Station/Bryan for a wedding the last weekend in March, and we were in Vegas for Eric's best friend's wedding Easter Weekend.
 
Also, I like to tell people about trips after we come back unless I'm talking to my family or really close friends.  I've had a family member get robbed not too long ago, and a close friend got robbed the weekend I was in College Station.  Needless to say it was very shocking as both live in very tight-nit communities with nosy neighbors, and for something like this to happen is unbelievable.
Hence my reason to not announce me being gone because I know all of you are superb, but you never know who actually reads your blogs so please be careful when announcing planned trips.
 
I hope all of you stay safe, and get ready for some posts!
Oh, and the Bride, her sister-in-law and I saw Thunder From Down Under (Hehe) and it was soooo much fun!
