I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas...

Good morning! It's 3 am and I can't sleep, what else is new? This falling asleep late, waking up at odd hours of the morning, not sleeping at all thing.. it's becoming a pattern for me. I'm watching the Santa Clause right now. What better way to spend the day before Christmas Eve? Sleeping possibly but yaknow.. that doesn't really seem like a possibility with me right now. Moving on.. the week long storm that hit So Cal seems like it's finally over, I hope. I like rain and all, just not when it keeps me up all night like it did yesterday night. Too bad it wasn't colder so that that rain could've turned into snow. I've always dreamed of having a white Christmas but San Diego weather doesn't permit so I just have to pretend. Here's my version of a white Christmas. I used Orly Gumdrop, NYC Scandalous Blue Glitter, China Glaze Fairy Dust, Orly Shine Konaded snowflakes (which you can barely see, if at all), and Wet N Wild French White Creme Konaded Snowflakes.

Are you going to have a white Christmas? Can I live vicariously through you please? :0)

China Glaze Nova

Gooood morning! Usually I'm an early bird and up at the crack of dawn but I took some cough syrup last night and man, that shiz knocked me the eff out! I went to the doctor last night and they said I should be all better in about 5 days as long as I use my cough syrup every night and use a Neti Pot before I go the bed and when I wake up. Now, I've heard of the Neti Pot before and seen it on Dr.Oz but last night was my first experience using it and boy did I feel violated haha! Anyone else ever tried using one? It sorta feels like your drowning yourself in salt water. Anyways, being sick I felt like I deserved an over the top blingy mani to help me feel a bit better. This is China Glaze Nova (2 coats) over Orly Shine (2 coats). I love this combo so much, it has the holiday season written all over it! (Make sure you click to view the pics full size.. small pics do this polish no justice)  I'm not a huge fan of holo polishes but I really, really love holo glitters and this is one of my all time favorite manis, especially during the holiday season! I'm curious though, what other polishes have you guys tried Nova over?

It's a sunny day; smile :0)
