Happy New Year with bling nails

Hello everyone ^_^/

usually my first post if the month is a nail art inspiration post but as this is the first post of the New Year I wanted to start a bit differently (the nail inspiration post will be up in a couple of days). Let me start off by wishing you all a Happy New Year. May 2013 be a year full of happiness, joy, health and everything you desire. 2013 is the year of the snake so I wanted my nails to have a snake like theme. I looked for nail polishes that would give my nails a scale effect in red and gold colours to bring good luck for the New Year.
I ended up using Change and Ruby Red Ruby by Lynnderella.

Here is what I used. All these lovely nail polishes  (including the Lynnderellas) were Christmas gifts from my dear friend 'Chelle from Cosmetic Cupcake.

This holiday season has been full of fun and joyous meetings as friends from far away came to visit.

We had lots of epic food together.

We welcomed the New Year together and made New Year's resolutions. Concerning my blog, my resolutions are a. to post more and b. to introduce a variety of new topics ^_^

We also caught the first sunsets of the year together.

How did you spend your holidays dear readers? Did you make any New Year's resolutions?

p.s. have you entered my Facebook only giveaway yet? If your answer is no, hurry to my facebook page, it is open until January 10.

Lynnderella Love Potion No.99 & my summer vacation

Hello everyone ^_^/

I am back from my vacation and before a very busy month comes my way, I want to say goodbye to the summer with an epic post full of glitter and beauty.

As you might remember if you follow me on Instagram or Facebook, I recently acquired my first Lynnderella polishes. My small Lynnderella army as I like to call them. I wanted to try one of them so I ran a mini FB and IG poll and in the end the winner was Love Potion No.99, a beautiful purple glitter.

I used a coat of black nail polish as my base and two layers of Love Potion No.99. Added two coats of my Color Club top coat to even out any bumps and my nails were ready to hit the beach ^_^

So I set off to one of the most beautiful places in Greece, Halkidiki. I had a fabulous time as we rented a boat and went around all the little islands that were near us. So many beautiful beaches with clear cool waters were waiting to be explored.

We did a bit of sightseeing too, visiting the birthplace of Aristoteles, the local Byzantine castle, the beautiful island of Ammouliani and a fabulous 5 star hotel, Alexandros Palace that is located in the area.

If you are curious about what was in my makeup bag during this trip you can check my previous post. Apart from what's pictured there I carried some more beauty essentials with me that you can see below.

 If you are wondering how Love Potion No.99 fared in the sea water, the answer is not very well. Everyday I would have to fix at least a couple of nails but I guess that is to be expected when you are in the water all day.

Where did you go on vacation this year dear readers? Have you ever been to Greece?
