Literary Lacquers
The Community Collection



Last night I showed you my collaboration shade from this collection, 84 Charing Cross Road, but tonight I have all ten for you! When Amy asked me and other bloggers, fans and friends to create a shade with her I KNEW that this collection would be tremendously amazing. And, as usual, I was right!

So let's get started!

Weekend Bits and Bobs: November 24, 2013

Nothing to Disclose




Happy Sunday everyone!

It's been COLD outside so I've been wearing my hat. I love hats.




The Day of the Doctor 50th Anniversary special has come and gone. I've seen mixed reviews but personally I LOVED IT! I really miss Tennant. #sadness

Check out all 19 of the other Doctor Whomanicures in the links here.

And my Christmas prezzie to myself arrived! (Hey, if I'm buyin' my own Christmas present, I shouldn't HAVE to wait, right?)


Dang I sure hope it works.

I broke a nail.



I tried rounded and that did not work for me at ALL so I chopped them all off.


You like my tweed nails?

My favorite mani of the week, aside from the Doctor Who mani of course, was a tie between this new one I haven't blogged yet from Above the Curve - it's called Crimson Time at Home and is part of their upcoming Christmas Collection...



...and 84 Charing Cross Road from Literary Lacquers - I created this one with Amy and I am so in love with how my vision turned out in her capable hands! You can read all about it and the other 9 in the Community Collection linked above. And check back tonight for swatches of all ten of them!




Have a great (what's left of the) weekend! ♥

Literary Lacquers: The Community Collection - 84 Charing Cross Road

*This product is Cruelty Free 


Tomorrow, I am going to be showing you the entire Community Collection, a brand new collection from Literary Lacquers, which consists of 10 new collaboration shades. And I got to create one of them with Amy!!!

Literary Lacquers
The Community Collection





I'm so excited! So naturally I have to show you "mine" first! Mine is called 84 Charing Cross Road - inspired by one of my favorite movies/books. In the world of books, especially 40's era stories, which is where 84 Charing Cross Road begins, it's a sepia-toned world, much like the pages of the old tomes central to the story of Frank and Helene. The sparkling rainbow, subtle in the shade, bursts forth in the sun, like the characters of Frank and Helene bursting forth from the un-earmarked pages of 84 Charing Cross Road. For anyone who loves books, they already know this is true for all of the stories and characters and worlds that lie within the sepia-toned pages of those leather-bound treasures.

Doctor Who Nail Art for the 50th Anniversary! Blogger Collab!

Nothing to Disclose




I'm sure every Whovian in the world knows about (and has been impatiently waiting for) the 50th Anniversary of Doctor Who.



I've been looking forward to this for what seems like forever. And I'm not the only one! Several of the Whovian Nail Bloggers are joining together to show off our Doctor Who themed nail art. So here's mine!

Doctor Who Skittles



This weekend is going to be SPECTACULAR!




There's no way I could do a tutorial on anything, but I can show you what I used...

This isn't my first attempt at Doctor Who nail art. I did these last year...



So, I'll be tuning in and my guy already knows...




In fact he knows not to even BREATHE too loudly!

Hopefully it's going to be THAT kind of day!




Yesssssssssssssssss!

Happy weekend!
