My hair is now a lot redder and I’m still obsessing over reading A Dance with Dragons, so it was time for some Tully representation.

I used Sally Hanson’s Complete Salon Manicure Thinking of Blue and Right Said Red, and L’Oreal French Tip White.

I’m getting closer to the end of A Dance with Dragons, and winter is indeed coming, so I was inspired to do these. I call them my beyond-the-wall nails.

To create the distance effect I put down one layer of a sheer white over a base coat. Then I drew on a single tree with my black nail art pen, and covered it with another layer of the sheer white. I repeated this until I had enough trees, leaving the last tree without a layer of sheer white. Then I just sealed it with my favorite top coat.

I used Sally Hanson’s Salon Manicure Polar Bare and a black Sally Hanson Nail Art Pen.

Posting this late since I haven’t uploaded the pictures off of my camera in forever.

I used Sally Hanson’s Complete Salon Manicure Thinking of Blue, Essie’s Orange, It’s Obvious, and a black Sally Hanson Nail Art Pen.

Finally got around to doing some galaxy nails.

I used Essie’s Licorice, Revlon Top Speed’s Electric, OPI’s Jade is the new Black, Sally Hanson’s Colour Quick Gold Chrome, and OPI’s Just Spotted the Lizard with Essie’s Set in Stones for the stars.

Another one I’ve been meaning to do for a while - Zipper nails.

I used Essie’s Licorice, Revlon Top Speed’s Electric, and Revlon’s Top Speed Metallic.

I’ve been wanting to do butterfly wings for a while, and I finally got around to it.

I used Zoya’s Pru over a coat of Essie’s Licorice and L’Oreal French Tip White.

It’s not the best photo, but I decided to do a comic book theme for Fanexpo.

I used Sally Hanson’s Insta-Dri Brisk Blue, Revlon Top Speed’s Electric, and a red Sally Hanson Nail Art Pen.

My office had a cowboy themed summer party, so I wanted to do denim nails. But the sponge method just wasn’t doing it for me. So I tried using a dry brush and criss-crossing across the nail.

I used a purely Sally Hanson line-up this time. I used the Complete Salon Manicure Thinking of Blue for the base, and the Insta-Dry Brisk Blue and the Complete Salon Manicure Lavender Cloud for the texture. The horseshoe was drawn with a white Sally Hanson Nail Art Pen.

I saw the How to Train Your Dragon Live Extravaganza (spoiler alert: it’s awesome) and decided to wear dragon scales for the occasion.

This is one coat of OPI’s Just Spotted the Lizard over a coat of Essie’s Licorice. The design was drawn on with a black Sally Hanson nail art pen.

This weekend I also did my awesome friend’s nails. They were her idea. =D WAKKA WAKKA WAKKA!

I used Essie’s Licorice, Sally Hanson’s Insta-Dry Brisk Blue, Revlon’s Top Speed Electric, and a white Sally Hanson Nail Art Pen.

It’s hard to capture on camera, but Nails Inc. London’s Stratford looks like painted-on silk. And what goes better with silk than lace?

The design was done using a black Sally Hanson nail art pen.

I did have a different plan for this week, but I ended up buying a beautiful new green polish on Friday. So I just played around and it ended up matching the Stop! Tea Time! shirt I was wearing.

I used Sephora by OPI’s Mermaid to Order, Essie’s Licorice and Sally Hanson’s Crackle Overcoat Fractured Foil.

Those floral patterned skinny jeans are really popular in the area where I work. I’m not going to buy a pair for myself, so I decided to get into the trend by putting the pattern on my nails instead.

I used Essie’s Fiji and Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri Peachy Breeze for the flowers, Essie’s Turquoise & Caicos and Sally Hansen’s Insta-Dri Mint Sprint for the leaves, and Sally Hansen’s Complete Salon Manicure Thinking of Blue for the base.

Inspired by one of missladyfinger’s designs from a while back. I wanted this to be more summer-y with white dots, but I lost my white nail art pen. I still think these turned out rather nice.

I used Revlon’s Top Speed Electric and A Sally Hanson nail art pen.

My first attempt at splatter nails, after I found some of the coral had infected my topcoat after I already had my turquoise nails. I love how this colour combo turned out.

I used Essie’s Turquoise & Caicos and Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Peachy Breeze.
