MAJOR haulage + bad luck

OKAY! so today my transdesign order came in + I did some shopping in the morning and bought some goodies (which starting now I'm on a NO POLISH BUY until I move and then of course I will have to hit up Sally's so until September 2nd I'm not allowed to buy any polish, which I'm totally okay with since my containers are filling up)
Today I bought some Milani polishes from Loblaws they don't have limited edition so I only got simple ones! I also got 3 polishes from my friend who went to Isreal (however only two survived - story later). And I bought my first (and probably last) Deborah Lippman polish Bad Romance! (How much of a follower am I!) They did have Chanel's Paradoxal in the store I went to, but the Deborah Lippman polish did enough damage to my bank account so I decided to pass! I can survive without it!
Here are all the pics:

Orly (L to R) Royal Navy, Out Of This World, It's Not Rocket Science, Lunar Eclipse, Charged Up, Purple Pleather
Milani (L to R) Pool Party, Totally Cool, Bolting Blue
Unnamed Isreali Polishes (anyone know what brand this is?) The pink one fell RIGHT after I took this picture! NO MORE PINK :(

OPI Lucerne-taily Look Marvelous, CG Heli-Yum, Deborah Lippman Bad Romance

The bad luck was that when I went to pick up my Joe Fresh polishes for my swap and the Milani polishes, my car battery decided to die! Thank god our car fixer people were right across the street! I called my mom and I was like "MOM I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO" major freak out there, but everything got fixed up! That was the first time anything like that happened to me! But I think I handled my self well! :)

Thanks for reading!

Orly Purple Crush

I got this manicure done in celebration of being finished work! The reason I like getting manicures is because filing and shaping is not my thing I'm really not good at it! Unfortunately this mani chipped after a day, but I'm kinda happy because that means I can switch my polish tonight!!! Yesterday I layered it with GOSH Magic Star. Here are the pictures:
I have no idea why it's called Purple Crush, does this not look pink to you?

Today I am going shopping with the rentals to get stuff ready for my dorm, and then tomorrow I'm going to go shopping with my friend! I am also going to buy Etude House polishes either tomorrow or Tuesday. Please let me know if you would wanna do a swap with these polishes - I hear they are pretty rare to find! I will need to know in the next week because I'm moving on the 2nd!!!!!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Sunday!!!!

Orly Viridian Vinyl

As promised! I've been waiting to try the Orly Plastix collection for a while, and I am so glad I did! Its probably in my top 10 fav polishes now! I need to get the others from this collection! The color was great, and I love the finish! I was going to put a coat of CG Matte Magic, but I loved the way it looked without it!
The first two pictures are pre-pool, and the last 2 pictures are after being in the pool for about an hour! Not too bad!


Alright my lovely readers, I'm off to Ottawa for the weekend - I don't plan on buying any polishes unless I find a MUST HAVE because I've ordered so many online! Hopefully I'll get some new clothes or something!

Have a great weekend! I will post probably Monday or Sunday night!

ps: A big thanks to Halifax from Sparkled Beauty for Sally Hansen Hidden Treasure, which I will receive when I move to Halifax in September :)

transdesign haul!!!

Alright so the package arrived MUCH faster than I had anticipated, so a big thanks to transdesign! I ordered 8 polishes sometime last week, and they decided to arrive today! I couldn't have been more excited, so I started ripping open the box (which I must add took me about 10 minutes to open because of the wonderfully tight packaging!)

I thought this boxes were amazing! I am going to keep them and reuse them!

from L to R: Orly Viridian Vinyl, OPI Ski Teal We Drop, Diva of Geneva, William Tell Me About OPI, China Glaze Four Leaf Clover, Flip Flop Fantasy, Pool Party, Lemon Fizz

+ Viridian Vinyl which I am going to show you tomorrow! I am so excited to finally have one of the Orly Plastix and this is my 2nd ever Orly polish!

Hope you enjoyed the nail polish, now on to a little bit of non-nail related stuff!

Do any of you get bad allergies in the summer? I am allergic to ragweed, it's awful :( It started this week, and today has been the worst day. So much sneezing and watery eyes and runny nose. My throat is also very sore, perhaps unrelated to the allergies but I read somewhere that it may be a symptom. What do you find works best to treat allergies? I just took some Reactine (non drowsy of course) so let's hope that works!

Thanks for reading :) I'm almost at 80 followers, which means I'm almost at 100! The giveaway will probably be sometime in September once I'm all settled in :)

Almost the weekend!

ps: so you think you can dance finale this week!

ANYONE WANNA FILL MY BIGGEST LEMMING AND BUY SALLY HANSEN HIDDEN TREASURE FOR ME? I'LL SEND YOU SOMETHING!!!

haul!!

Alright so I wanted to hold off on buying more polishes until the new OPI Swiss collection came out... but uh.. as we all know temptation is a bitch! So I went to the place where I get my eyebrows done, and across the street is American Apparel, so I'm like OF COURSE I have to go buy those! Then I went to Subway for lunch and on the way was a Shoppers Drug Mart - so OF COURSE I had to go in! And my salon place HAD to sell color club polish so OF COURSE who ends up buying them? ME. UGH!!
Color Club: Orange Revenge and Electro Candy

American Apparel: Butter, Peacock, Factory Grey

Orly: La Playa + Top 2 Bottom
These were all firsts to my collections! I am for sure going to buy more AA polishes and ORLY I want to try the Plastix collection. However, I do not think that Color Club was a value for my money and I would rather stick to the other polish brands!
Guess where I got Orly? Shoppers! Who knew they sold them there? I had to take a picture!

The one missing from the box is the one I took... I guess it's not very popular here yet?!
Swatches to come soon! :)

What is your favourite American Apparel polish?

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful weekend!!

ps: still need nail ideas for Black Eyed Peas tomorrow!

pss: still adding people to my blog roll!
