#ThePolishedBookworms: Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Thursday, April 30, 2015

You may remember that I'm part of a little group called The Polished Bookworms. This is a group for polish lovers to get together read a fun book, discuss, and then do a mani inspired by the book. If this sounds like something you'd like, maybe you should join us. *hint hint*
Anyways, I was inspired by the book in so many ways. There were so many quotes that stuck out. I started with a base of Zoya Storm, which is obviously the best choice for a galaxy base ever!
I then used a bunch of polishes to create a galaxy look. Light blue is Zoya Rocky, dark blue is OPI Eurso Euro, also used were Orly After Party, and Morgan Taylor If the Slipper Fits. I then stamped on stars with Uber Chic 2-03 and Sinful Colors Snow Me White, topping it all off with China Glaze Fairy Dust.
Once my galaxy was done, I decided to pay tribute to the most integral part of the book. "Don't Panic" is the first thing every time you check the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. “I like the cover," he said. "Don't Panic. It's the first helpful or intelligible thing anybody's said to me all day.” - Arthur Dent. The words were done with OPI This Gown Needs a Crown and Konad Black.
On my thumb I give you the answer to the question, the BIG question. “The Answer to the Great Question... Of Life, the Universe and Everything... Is... Forty-two,' said Deep Thought, with infinite majesty and calm.”
If you stuck it out this long, perhaps you'd like to take a peek at other ladies who did a Hitchhiker's Guide looks as well.
Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

#TheLacquerRing: Comic Book Nails

Hey y'all! Who is excited for the holiday this week? I'm pretty pumped about delicious food and family time. But it isn't quite Thanksgiving yet. So today #TheLacquerRing is here to show you something fun. As you may remember from earlier this month its my turn to pick. I did teal for my color prompt and for my art prompt I chose Comic Book nails.
I wanted to do a look that shows old school comic book styles with a fun Wonder Woman accent nail. I'll let the look speak for itself. I'll list colors used after the photos. Wonder Woman isn't my favorite nail, but I love the way the others came together.
- White = OPI Alpine Snow
- Red = Essie She's Pampered
- Black = Zoya Willa*
- Yellow = OPI I Just Can't Cope-acabana
- Nude = Floss Gloss Biscuts
- Blue = Zoya Rocky
