<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Today is day 3 of wearing this mani, and I went into the Kate Spade shop in Yorkdale mall... I stopped in my tracks when I saw this iPhone case, which 100% matched my nails! hah, talk about reverse inspiration. I am a sucker for polka dots, so naturally I couldn't leave the case behind. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">Foxy! I have a thing for animal prints... Not your typical animal prints, like zebra stripes and leopard spots. I love prints that feature the <i>whole</i> animal. My favourite scarf is covered in zebras. I have a cute dress that is covered in mini cat silhouettes. Today I rocked both of these articles of clothing, with these nails and my elephant charm necklace. Hah, I love my style!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My NYE mani was super glittery and gold. I wore <a href="http://www.incoco.com/product.aspx?productid=153&categoryid=70#155" target="_blank">Incoco nail strips</a> in Stardust, and layered OPI's Golden Eye on the tips for some extra sparkle. </span></div>

<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I've used Incoco strips a few times in the past. I prefer them over Sally Hansen strips... they are more flexible, and come in a wider range of (better!) styles. They are about the same cost as Sally strips, and last long, too. I got mine at Vaughan Mills shopping mall at their booth. They are worth checking out!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">...but I haven't lost interest in doing my nails! Here are some iPod (I'm not cool enough to have an iPhone) photos of some recent over-the-summer manicures. These were inspired by some designes that I came across on Pinterest (Check out my <a href="http://pinterest.com/herecomesthesun/nail-art/" target="_blank">nail art board</a> to see the originals). My favourite manicure to do as of late is a double accent nail. Now that nail art is becoming more trendy, I feel like I need to be ahead of the game. Pretty soon I will probably be rocking different designs on all of my nails ALL of the time!</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The chevron nail was my biggest challenge. I tried to free-hand it, and failed. Then I tried to cut out tape guides... also a failure. I ended up painting scotch tape with black nail polish, and carefully cutting out chevron strips using an exacto knife. It was time consuming and required a lot of patience, but I was thrilled with the results! I have since ordered nail art stickers from <a href="http://www.ebay.com/sch/baby_dolphin_777/m.html" target="_blank">here</a>, so the next time I attempt chevrons, it shouldn't be as much of a struggle ;)</span><br />

The 2 students intervened, but wanted to do more to prevent homophobic & transphobic bulling. They decided to purchase pink shirts, and a few days later got everyone at school to arrive wearing pink, standing in solidarity. The result was that an entire school stopped homophobic & transphobic bullying. </span></i></span></div><div style="margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 1em;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, 'Nimbus Sans L', sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 18px;">The message was clear: anyone can bully, any can be victimized by bullying, but together we can stop it. -from <a href="http://www.dayofpink.org/">http://www.dayofpink.org/</a></span></i></span></div></blockquote><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">My school board goes all out to recognize and celebrate diversity in the schools and community <i>every</i> day, but especially on April 11th!

I like to call it "Tiny Bubbles" because that's pretty much what it looks like! I got the microbeads from Michaels (on sale, too! - Regular $11.99 for a pack of 6 colours, 50% off this week) - check the scrapbooking section. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilSoC5LCOEAXT9KOt5RWbHjYUE0rZxVNA1tUFjHam__uRsl_wPgcpJFcB1EqMUZdBnf5dPDlPhSnRmfLn1QUQdUtiD0BdA0IelMJ7JuzeGrsocSkWm5wVFXkx_siajwfDDHq9wDElkj_kN/s1600/caviar.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="267" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEilSoC5LCOEAXT9KOt5RWbHjYUE0rZxVNA1tUFjHam__uRsl_wPgcpJFcB1EqMUZdBnf5dPDlPhSnRmfLn1QUQdUtiD0BdA0IelMJ7JuzeGrsocSkWm5wVFXkx_siajwfDDHq9wDElkj_kN/s400/caviar.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">To apply a fish egg manicure, start with one coat of your base colour (I used Essie Smooth Sailing). Once dry, apply a second coat of medium thickness. Immediately pour microbeads on the wet nail, over some sort of container to catch the loose ones (which can be reused). Gently pat the beads into the wet polish with your finger, and pour some more beads to fill in any empty spots. Do one nail at a time. When finished, add a clear top coat at the tip of your nail to help prevent beads from coming loose.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"> </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe2NRTXIdzhXMLpl8SBbmP1Xluxire2CG60bCuIBnu2ZnI9N0DRu9oLdhXsg_3gyWov5kNNUM5QzkfV_nC4zJ8SymSaDMrMylww9kkJmy35RCHbVz9q4zI26pMj2l8YA0JQqglwu_GR7mP/s1600/caviar2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="268" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe2NRTXIdzhXMLpl8SBbmP1Xluxire2CG60bCuIBnu2ZnI9N0DRu9oLdhXsg_3gyWov5kNNUM5QzkfV_nC4zJ8SymSaDMrMylww9kkJmy35RCHbVz9q4zI26pMj2l8YA0JQqglwu_GR7mP/s400/caviar2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I would recommend against putting a top coat over your entire nail. You will loose the texture and shine of the beads, plus they will be a pain to remove. when I was ready to remove the beads, I used a metal cuticle pusher to gently scrape them off, and used acetone to take off the remainder. It was easy!</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

</div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">These photos were taken the day after I did this, and you can see that some of the beads have fallen off (but not many). Although I do love the way this looks, the feel of added thickness to my nails weirded me out, plus I felt handicapped when it came to certain things like opening packages and peeling stickers off of my produce (lol). I will try this out again, but only for special occasions. I have since removed the beads from my nails, and I am finding them everywhere... in my bed, nestled in my hair, <i>in my food</i>... yikes! lol</span><br />

I don't fit that demographic (I'm 26... *waves*), but I got sucked into the craze! I recently read the book trilogy and the movie exceeded my high expectations. Naturally, I painted my nails to look like the <i>girl on fire...</i></span><br />

The mockingjay accent nail was by far my most ambitious free design, but I saw other ladies had done it so I went for it! </span><br />

Although I am not a fan of rose gold accented accessories and jewelry, something about this on my nails was different - I love this look. It's very shiny, especially when topped with a coat of Seche Vite. </span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

Designer de Better is a silver-based metallic with copper flecks. Paired with the pink glitter in the Essie topcoat, the combo comes off as a metallic rose gold. It's very pretty and worth trying out yourself!</span><br />

</div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I've always been attracted to the bright colours and whimsical designs by Betsey Johnson, and that was what drew me to this collection! I'm glad that I splurged on it :) Here are my swatches of the minis.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />

This is a winner of the collection for me. The first coat of went on a bit streaky, but it smoothed over with the second coat. Really pretty!</span><br />

It's not necessarily my colour, but I still see myself rocking this in the summer! Nice application after 2-3 coats. </span><br />

This is probably my least favourite of the collection. It needs 3 coats, or else it's too sheer and shows the visible nail line. Even though this colour isn't for me, I don't hate it and I can see it looking good on other people!</span><br />

The collection is worth it for this polish alone. I have many turquoise and teal polishes, but none like this. It has a lighter blue shimmer, and it applies like BUTTER! Amazing coverage with 2 coats. <3</span><br />
