So, something exciting happened to me today!! I was interviewed for the Today Show website! SO exciting, I never would have imagined that anything of that magnitude would EVER happen to me!! In honor of the article, I decided to do the Today Show logo on my nails!
I used OPI Alpine Snow Matte as a base, with Nubar Sexy Red for the red, CND Electric Orange for the darker orange, Zoya Jancyn for the lighter orange, and CND Bicycle Yellow for the yellow. Topped everything off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.
Woo!!! I'm soooo stoked! Thanks to all of YOU for being such great readers, and WELCOME to the new readers!!! :) You kick ass!! (and not the kind from yesterday's manicure)
The second I saw this I knew what it was. Great stuff :)! I love how random ur inspirations are :).

ReplyDeleteYAY! YOU ROCK, AS ALWAYS!!!!
I just discovered you,thanks to the "Today Show" article. I am bummed that I am just now seeing your blog. Your nails are awesome!
ReplyDeleteDiscovered an article on you from the today show on msnbc.com. I actually intern there. Wow, very impression nail designs. Loved the rubber ducky one, it was real cute. You should open your own salon :) It would be beyond more creative than the designs from other nail salons.
ReplyDeleteHi I love your blog! I found you on MSN and am bummed that there's only a little over a month left. Hope you keep blogging and painting your nails after a year's up :)
ReplyDeleteHoly Cow! Congrats! :)
ReplyDeleteYou kept me very entertained at work today, as I came across your blog on the top stories of Bing. I'm sure your hits are bananas today! I love, love, lo0ove your creativity! I've maintained really long, natural nails for years w/o painting them b/c I found it useless. You've totally changed my mind! And yes, do put all of your designs together in an album. Congrats on the success!!!
ReplyDeletelove the colours! looks awesome!

ReplyDeleteBest of luck, can't wait to follow your new designs as you produce them!
I loved the blog and nails, I loved and wanted to have that talent too, but my mother fought with me when I tried to paint it black. But I love your nails and the parabens because they got me thinking all night how to paint my unhas.Estou a ha weeks at home doing nothing and suddenly remembered you the nail and painted seven times a day, to happy with the color laranja.Minha mother found her fingernails different THANKSS
