That's Just Grey-t
Saturday, March 27, 2010
Hey there kids!! (Don't worry, I call everyone kid, regardless of their years) So the Bad Religion concert las night was PUNK-tastic. I had a blast, and got a rad t-shirt that earns me dirty looks when I wear it. (Google Bad Religion images, you'll see why) Today was a busy day- I went and tried on (and bought) the bridesmaid dress for the wedding I'm going to be in in May, and it was surprisingly VERY flattering. (the color will be a different story- Guava is not a color that should be in a redhead's vocabulary. (or wardrobe). After that, I helped a good friend paint his bedroom- Ground Cumin is the color, and it turned out fantastic. He was smart not to question my interior design skills. :-P I love picking out paint colors for people, perhaps one day I'll have my own house and can do it for myself!! I managed to squeeze in a nap in there, which was great, too.
Today's nails are simple, but I really like them, and despite the beginning of my experience with butterLondon (took 5.5 weeks to get my polishes due to Paypal marking the order as complete, and no one returned emails from BL), I am 100% in love with the one polish I've tried out of the 3 I bought... Billy No Mates! It applied smoothly, and only took 2 coats to be opaque.
I used 2 coats of butterLONDON Billy No Mates as base, with 1 coat of Essie Matte About You, then for the moons, I used about 8,000 coats of Urban Outfitters Grey 1, it was pretty hard to get opaque and even. For the ring finger moon, I used American Apparel Berry. I also used American Apparel Berry for the 'stitching' on the grey moon fingers, and Urban Outfitters Grey 1 for the stitching on the ring finger.
How is everyone's weekend going? I get to wake up early for class, blargh. :-D My weekend off last week because of Spring Break felt nice. :)

ReplyDeleteOh the things we do for our GF's! I am in a wedding this year as well our dresses are Tangerine and the bride is in RED I keep praying she will change her mind before i buy the dress! BTW love the mani today!
ReplyDeleteThis mani makes me feel like I should be back in the 1940's, riding a train (with my matched luggage set) -and perhaps trying to solve a mystery...
ReplyDeletewhere is todays nails? Those look cool!
ReplyDeleteYou take soooo long before posting the days nails. Do you think you could start posting them earlier? I want to see Sunday's nails!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!
ReplyDeleteNiki- isn't it weird how that happens? Its especially odd because I was planning on doing the moon, and then stripes outside the moon in the same shape, but then changed my mind at the last minute and did the single dashed line.
Iris and Anonymous-
Today's nails will be posted before the end of the PST day. I post them as early as I can, sometimes my life (work, class, LIFE, etc.) come first. :) Hope you understand. I'm actually in the process of posting them in the next few minutes. Thanks for being patient. :)
they were worth the wait - so cool!!
ReplyDeleteI'm SO jealous - I LOVE Bad Religion! Was exchanging emails with one of the band members for a while.
ReplyDeleteLove the nails too!
