Well, if it wasn’t clear before, this gives away my political preference to date. LOL
But seriously, the OPI Germany Collection (2012) colors are INCREDIBLE!!!!
OPI – “Unfor-greta-bly Blue”
China Glaze – “White On White”
I have my coworkers to thank for this nail art inspiration!! The debate didn’t really move me. *shrugs* Hopefully the next one will.
This just matches a night out on the town. Slightly edgy and flashy, and FUN!
OPI – “Nein! Nein! Nein! Ok, Fine!” (2012 Germany Collection) & “Metallic 4
Life” (Nicki Minaj Collection) 
My hand felt like a model on location, in the city. lol. My nails fit right in with all the lights and traffic. All I needed was to really go out.
…it was Autumn.
The temperature just bounced from a beautiful, breezy 78 degrees…..
…..to a dry (low humidity), WINDY 55 degrees.
I need a coat, a scarf and gloves. Right Now!
So, I went with antique Autumn.
OPI – “Don’t Pretzel My Buttons” (2012 Germany Collection)
Time for some season changing colors……
I am loving these sponging gradients. I did the typical horizontal one….. just looked “stripe-y” to me…. so I applied it diagonally. And I love that look so much more. 
OPI – “Don’t Talk Bach To Me” (Germany Collection) &”Suzi Takes The Wheel” & “Nein! Nein! Nein!Ok, Fine!” (Germany Collection)
Inspired by my new twitter friend @LacqueredAffair . . . who has a most wonderful manicure avi….
Though I don’t really do gems on my nails because of my (self-diagnosed) tactile OCD, I loved the design. So, I had to do my own take on the manicure that involved nothing I could easily yank off my nail. LOL.
China Glaze – “White on White”
He has got to be one of the biggest Chicago Bears fans EVER! I mean, Bears logo EVERYWHERE…. EVERYWHERE.
So, as I finished his manicure… complete with matte topcoat, he allowed me to have some fun and tolerated some nail art. 
And now we can add a new location for his Bears logo: his fingernail!
For him this is definitely extreme “fan-dom”, but I think it was kinda hot. #DaBears

So, I know I’ve been pretty negligent in blogging…. but as you can see, I’ve been busy. Lol.
And I’m exhausted. All my creative energy is drained, and I need to re-up.
I’m excited and anxious… and just trying to stay calm!!! 
This will definitely be a ride. Hope you’ll join me… and stay tuned.
p.s. my nails feel even more neglected than the blog. I promise to pay more attention to both in just a second.
Hey guys, Duana here! It has been sooo long since I posted! I’ve been busy graduating and stuff. And everyone knows what happens after graduation: the dreaded job search. UGH!
After sending out what seemed to be around 1 million resumes and applying for 15,000 positions, I got a call back from a company in my target region. I got an interview!! Naturally I went on a quest to find the perfect interview pinky-neutral, one that was subtly appropriate, but still packed a punch and made a nice statement.
I came across Zoya’s “Laurie”, a sheer pink that was like a palate cleanser to my usual neon-hued nails. I loved it! For my pedicure, I went a little bolder with OPI’s “Pink Flamenco”. I love the color combination!
Zoya “Laurie”, OPI “Pink Flamenco”
P.S. I got the job! The manicure was the clincher, I’m sure of it!! lol…
OPI – “A Roll In The Hague”
Lol. I couldn’t use “rawr” because I’m thinking that’s more like the sound a lion makes. I needed a tiger sound. LOL. I guess I could have said ‘They’re Grrrrrrrrrreat!” hahahaha
OPI – “Kiss Me On My Tulips” & “Metallic 4 Life”
I guess I’m feeling at a loss for words these days. My brain is working too hard, so it’s shutting down on creativity. I think I need another break so my brain cells can be revived. 🙂
Until then…. here’s another manicure. *chuckle*
