China Glaze: Bitz n Pieces

Argh. I can't believe that it's Sunday already!

It's been another crazy busy week. Any time I wasn't at school was spent looking at cars or marking tests. In fact I've been so busy that over the last 2 weeks I've only painted my nails 3 times. That's a drastic difference compared to my usual every night.

I left my camera at school on Friday. We were lucky enough to have the circus visit with a group of contortionists. Honestly it was amazing to watch the 15min show they put on for the kids. So I took some pictures...then forgot about my camera until I went to use it on Saturday...

I have some great manis to share as well!

My looking at cars nails... and my Valentines day nails.

Today though I have swatches of the awesome Bitz n Pieces polishes from China Glaze. I admit when I first saw the promo's I was like...umm meh. They just looked like glitters. But they're in fact awesome glitter toppers. I'm not sure I need them in every colour... But they sure are a fun way to spice up a mani.


Scattered and Tattered over a nude...
Bling it On over Essie Nice is Nice
Grafitti Glitter over Color Club Twiggie
Mosaic Madness over a very pretty blue... I wish I could remember what I used. It looks super pretty!
Glitz N Poeces over LA Colors Seafoam
Razzle me, Dazzle me over SH First Kiss
Eeeek. Without my camera I can't remember some of the polishes I used for undies! I'll have to track it down on Monday. What is happening to me? I normally keep an insane amount of polish knowledge stored in my head... I hope looking at cars hasn't overwritten it!
I shouldn't know car makes and models...

Polish Elf Goodies

Before Christmas I participated in a polish secret santa... We dubbed it Polish Elves!

My elf was Michaela from Nail Polish Anon. She totally spoiled me.

Pretty and Polished Island of Misfit Toys, Holoday Duo Glitter Topper, Ruby , CG Atlantis, Lynnderella Boy Girl Party and Lilacquer Walk the Planck.
See! See the glitter and the sparkles and the nom nom nom polishes!

Lynnderella Boy-Girl Party over SH Lavender Cloud
I wanted Boy Girl Party to really stand out, so experimented by using it over a pale colour... Whilst I like this combination... I found an even better combo!


Lynnderella Boy-Girl Party over LA Colors Wisteria
Nom, nom, nom!! Definitely party nails.


Pretty & Polished Island of Misfit Toys over Revlon Girly


Lilacquer Walk the Planck over OPI Tomorrow Never Dies

China Glaze Atlantis
Wow! Was I spoiled or what! Nick even felt the need to question me to ensure I'd been as nice to my polish elf. Yes, I was super nice to my polish elf as well :)

Some Happy Thoughts!

In the form of colours
I love colour, I love mixing paint to make new colours, I love plain boring normal colours...I just love colour. It always cheers me up.

I need cheering up today, it's the second weekend I've been sick. I didn't drink, I didn't eat anything bad, but when I woke up at 6am to take Nick to the bus...wow my tummy hurt. I felt so ill.

So I've thrown up, I haven't eaten and I'll felt sorry for myself all day. Luckily I feel better now, just random intense stomach pains when I move.

Here's my happy thoughts...


Milani- Bare in Mind
Milani- Dressmaker
Milani- Teddy Bare
 I actually love all three of these Milani polishes. Yes I realise they're all supposed to be dupes of more expensive polishes, but I'm happy with my Milanis.

LA Splash- Wonderland
LA Splash-Golden Seahorse
 Love, love, love these LA Splash polishes...need more! I didn't expect Wonderland to be so sheer...or to have hearts and flowers...not from the online swatch...but I like it!

Jordana- Mardi Gras
LA Colors- Purple Glitter
 These last two were given to me by girls in my class for Christmas last year. They actually go very nicely together, layered.
