China Glaze “Flyin’ High”
orange and white acrylic paint dots
It wasn’t on purpose, but every time I looked down I kept thinking, this really looks like a Dr. Seuss inspired mani. Found the book list…. and realized why. lol
When Aryiana’s dad sent me a photo saying she was “like your friend Cheryl”(that would be me, lol)… I was super flattered!!! It made my whole day.
I was inspired
…..and a new manicure is ALWAYS fun!
Aryiana’s design:
Pink & Periwinkle
My copycat version:
China Glaze “Sea Spray” & Sally Hansen Insta-Dri “Instant Iris”
Hope you like it Aryiana!! 🙂
…. but it ain’t. It’s FREEZING outside. It FEELS nothing like Spring.
The wind was whipping so harshly I thought my windows were going to shatter last night. And though I don’t know where mine are right now, it’s so cold, you need gloves still.
That little groundhog was serious when he predicted six more weeks of Winter. I guess we are going to really get ALL six weeks of that mess here in Chicago. If it actually snows this weekend though, I’ll be good. ![]()
This is such a near dupe to China Glaze “For Audrey”…. (and my Tiffany pouch). “For Audrey” is the tiniest bit bluer.

Essie “Turquoise & Caicos”
The Essie formulation is a little thinner and streakier than I would have hoped. This was three coats. Still lovely.
But of course, I splashed all kind of dots over it. This actually made me want to lay off the dots just a tad.
China Glaze “Midtown Magic” – GORGEOUS! it’s such a pretty color. Chocolate Burgundy – definitely magical with a pretty gold glitter almost dissolved within.
I know, I know, I was supposed to be on glitter/shimmer hiatus….
….. BUT I COULDN’T HELP IT! lol. It’s so sparkly and it was making googly eyes at me.
I striped the tips with Ulta’s “Set the Nude”, but next time, I am just wearing the “Midtown Magic”. all by its lonesome.
