The Fancy Side

Can you all believe the weekend is here again? I'm just sad that its half over already. I had a really rough week at work and I'm not looking forward to another one. In the meantime the future in-laws are in town, so we're having a fun weekend of running around the city and tonight we are seeing the Carol King musical, Beautiful. It's supposed to be really good, so I'm very excited.

For today's stamped look, I started with a base of Morgan Taylor's Don't Worry, Be Brilliant. It's a radioactive orange leaning coral. On my accent finger I used OPI's Honey Rider topped with Nicole by OPI Lips Are Dripping Honey for some added sparkle. I then used China Glaze Passion to stamp on the birds and herringbone pattern from MoYou Hipster 08.



What do you think? Are you a fan of this look?  Be sure to link up your stamped manis below and check out all the other ladies too!

Enjoy & until next time, Amy Lee

#TheLacquerRing is back. The lovely Cynthia from Of Life and Lacquer  has the pleasure of picking for the month of August. As you know by now, we do a color for the first go around and then an art pick for the second theme in August.

For Cynthia's first pick she chose the color green. For my green I chose Morgan Taylor's Go For the Glow, which is from their Neon Color Collection. It is very neon!







Don't forget to check out what Cynthia, Amanda, Lesley, Frosso, Jessica, Siobhan, and Nicole came up with as well. You can see their looks below.

I was pretty much the worst blogger ever last week. The sad thing is I had looks done, photos taken, and edited but I just didn't have the time to write the posts. Things were going on. ;-) Pretty much winding down summer, getting closer to the wedding, and just busy beyond belief.

Speaking of winding down summer, can y'all believe it is AUGUST already? Summer is almost over and I'm 30ish days away from getting married! I wasn't sure about giving up my bright summer colors, breezy dresses and sunshine for colder weather, sweaters, and boots but Zoya's Naturel Duex Collection is the perfect transition to fall. This marvelous collection has me excited for the changing season now. Let's take a look. I'll show you the colors then talk formula at the end.

First up is Spencer. Described as a "camel creme" which is a spot on description.

The Lacquer Ring is back for its final prompt in July. Jessica of Once Upon a Polish picked geometric for our art theme this month. I really wanted to free hand a design this time around since my freehanding failed in June.

I'm so excited to announce that I have joined up with Nail Polish Canada in their Great Polish Giveaway 2014! One winner will get to take up to 200 polishes home, each one nominated by a different blogger.


I chose to add Cirque Vectors to the giveaway. Cirque is by far my favorite indie polish maker so its normal that I would nominate one of Annie's creations. Vectors is a topper made of several different matte black glitters in a number of different shapes including bar, multi-sized hexes, circles, stars, squares, triangles, and more. It also has a smattering of holographic mini glitters in the base. Here I've layered one coat of Vectors over Morgan Taylor Pink Flame-ingo.
