Hey lovelies!
Back today with the bi-monthly Beauty Buffs post!
Todays post is all about YELLOW!
Exciting! In the world of nail blogging, I am a huge fan of the yellow. I don't necessarily carry that love over into fashion or makeup, but I do a bit.
Today I've got for you a mani I did for the post, a collage of some of my favorite yellow goodies and also another collage of some of my favorite yellow manis from the GG archives.

Heyllo!
Today is Pastel day for the Neverending Pile Challenge! If you are interested in jumping in on some days of this challenge, head over to the Glittah Pirates FB Group to sign on!
It lasts quite a few months so lots of us will be doing what we can when we can, but there are all kinds of fun prompts!
If you didn't see my post on Instagram the other day, I posted a pic of my untrieds, I had exactly 240 when the challenge started, can't wait to see what I end up with when it's over! I'm going to count every polish I use, subtract it from the 240 and compare what I actually have when its over to see how much I bought during the challenge as well!

Nail-Art-A-Go-Go Day 6 - Neon

Into Day 6 now of the Nail-Art-A-Go-Go Challenge!

And its another tape mani!

I'm not entirely sure why I did almost a full week of tape manis for the start of the challenge, I remember when I was doing them that I thought this was a huge time waster (the waiting for so much polish to dry) - but I do really love them all, and this one today is no exception. It reminds me of motorcycles.

I have a really cute little item to share with you today!
Funny story about this manicure.
This week I saw this gorgeous polish on The Crumpet and I thought to myself "Well, that isn't something I normally would buy (its sort of red) but it is STUNNING" and then I had wished I'd seen it when I had placed my order a few months back with that brand. As I was digging for polishes to stamp with for this mani, I remembered the Mentality polishes stamp really well and I still had a few of them untried...so I'm digging for them and I remember the polish I loved on Debbie's blog was a Mentality and I think, omg how awesome would it be if I HAD bought it in my last order? Turns out, I DID!!! Happy dance!

Oh man you guys.

For a theme I started out hating, I totally went above and beyond what I sometimes think I am capable of with the nail art this week for Digit-al Dozen.

It's not ALL great, but some of it is...well...just look at this one.

Hidey ho!
Another day, another challenge!
Today in the 33DC we are doing Tribals.
Can you hear me groaning from there?
Yeah, I almost hate tribal designs. They're up there with those ikat designs in that I just don't dig 'em. They can be cool, and I actually kind of liked the ones I did today, but you can bet if I'm not doing them for a challenge, I'm just not doing them period.

It's been a blast - but rest assured, there will be a short break and then I will be doing ANOTHER nail art challenge!

Anyway, we're still doing this one, so let's talk about it. It's the Tape Prompt today for Digit-al Dozen Does It Again - and you know I love some tape!

Hi you guys!
Hope your day is lovely - I'm sure happy to see you!
Today we have the Book Prompt for Digit-al Dozen Does It Again!
Last time we did books, I loved it, this one day second time around, I didn't love it.
I thought my idea was cool but I don't think I love what I did with it, even if my boyfriend loves it...what does he know!?
