RIP Dasher :(

My boyfriend's family's dog, Dasher, has been sick for a couple of weeks and today she was put down :(. She was 77 years old (in dog years). In her honor I did gold nails (she was a Golden Retriever) with a pink bow because when she went to the groomer she would get a pink bow and she would immediately attempt to take it off.



I used:
China Glaze - Mega Bite
Pink rhinestones
Heart fimo clay slice

Chg - Mega Bite is a gold scattered holo. Seeing as since I didn't take the pictures under natural sunlight you miss the holo of it in the pictures, but it really isn't very holo in real life unless you look at it really close.

Here's a closer up picture of it:



I'll miss Dasher a lot, I met her when she was old and knew she would die soon but I was hoping it wouldn't have happened until later. My boyfriend and his dad took her to the vet today where they found out she had a tumor in her spleen and she didn't have many more days. She was a goofy dog who loved her duck jerky... RIP Dash <3.

OPI Serena Williams Set

So it's dead week (week before finals) and my first two finals are on Saturday... :( So I figured I should post something before I take myself away from the world for a couple of days.

Also have a nail polish buying story: The other day I saw that a Bartell's had OPI's Texas collection and I bought Don't Mess With OPI last week thinking it'd be at retail price or maybe even more expensive, but none of the OPI's would ring up so the manager priced it at $2.99! Then I thought about buying Austin-tatious Turquoise also but I felt like I would be too greedy. Then 2 days ago I go back and Austin-tatious was still there! So I bought it and for some reason they still hadn't priced the OPIs so I got it for $1.99! Awesomeee.



Used:
OPI - Simply Smash-Ing
OPI - Black Shatter

I love shatter, at first I was kind of hesitant since I lean toward cutesy things more than grudge-y looking things. But, I really loved the effect of it. After using Black Shatter I went and bought China Glaze - Fault Line (since it was the only one left at my Sally's). I think it will be awesome to use it over gold though when I do Husky nails again :)


Also, as you can see I changed my watermark. I feel like 'Nail Bean' will be way more easy to identify where the image is from than with 'Beanz'. Also wanted to change the font.
