Some Fun Holiday Nails :)

Press Sample (Barielle)

It's been a VERY long time since I have been here....HI :) I have truly missed the nail community and I'm wanting to come back and spend some time here on my blog and on my PolishHoochie Facebook Page. So for tonight, I did a really fun Holiday Combo to share with you all.  

POLISH USED:

• 2 Coats of Barielle - Boho Chic (Fall 2014) 
• 1 Coat of Once Upon A Time - Posion Apple (Unfortunatley Discontinued) 
• Top Coat of Northern Lights 
• Top Coat of Seche Vite

I have not done my nails for photography purposes in ages, so don't look too close, lol.  I wasn't striving for perfection, just trying to get back (SLOWLY) into the swing of things.  Perfection was never my thing anyway HAHAHA :) 

(EDIT: NEW PHOTOS WERE ADDED 12/9/14)

I love how the Northern Lights Top Coat added to this mani, you can see the micro glitters it adds.  Just one picture to start (EDIT: more were added 12/9/14). I got a new MacBook Pro and so far not so good on my Photoshop playing nice with it.  Everything looks distorted, off color and blurry. The base polish is green (very dark green), and in lots of different light sources it most definitely looks black. The pic here is off (sorry). After some intense research I found out that my Photoshop does not support my new Retina Display on My Mac, and it will not work with no update offered. So, for now I had to use this pretty horrible pic lol, but the WONDERFUL hubby is running out after work today to get me the newest Photoshop :) Gotta love him!! 

Better pictures coming soon (EDIT: Added 12/9/14)

Once Upon a Time I had a Poison Apple :)

Hi Guys,

Tonight I have a really fun polish for you. This polish is from Once Upon a Polish and it's called Poison Apple. All the polish I own from Once Upon a Polish are amazing. I did not know much about this Indie Polish maker when I originally ordered from them, it was just on order on a whim. I'm really glad I had that whim, they are fabulous to say the least.

UPDATE: When I originally posted this I had no idea that Once Upon a Polish closed up shop :( So sad to hear this, thus this polish is no longer available.

This is sparkly in your face glitter, and I love it!!! For those of use that have spent ALL our money on gifting presents for Christmas and have no money left for polish for ourselves, a polish like this is PERFECT. It's shiny and red 'Rudolph like', but not part of any 'Christmas' collection.  This is 2 coats of OPI Off Dreaming of Red with two coats of Poison Apple. Kelly helped me pick the base coat on this one :)

This was a polish I purchased months ago for no special reason, and it's perfect for Christmas. Tomorrow I'm going to the Mall in St Louis with my sweetie and we are having a shopping spree day. I wanted to wear something special. Kelly is feeling so much better, us going to the mall and shopping will be so fun. We split up and shop for each other, and then meet up at the end and head home lol. 

I want to again thank all of you that have asked about Kelly and how he is doing. He is recovering well, and I am excited about kicking back and enjoying the up coming Holiday with him. I feel really blessed this Holiday Season to have him here.

This is going to be so fun to wear for the day tomorrow. I start my day out early working from 7am til noon, and then Kelly picks me up and takes me off to St Louis (about an hour and half away) to shop our heads off lol. I'm so excitied about it!!! I need to pick up a few last minute surprises for him! 

Hope you guys like this!!! Stay tuned as the blog will be filled with Holiday Themed polishes all this week, and next week until Christmas. 

I would love to hear what you guys think about this. Please leave your comments below, I love to hear what you guys have to say :)
