Nothing To Disclose
This afternoon I was laying around in bed watching documentaries on Netflix when it hit me. My little baby blog turns 3 today! With all of the crazy life stuff I've got going on right now I completely forgot and have nothing planned. Until I went thru my blog's archives (very cringe worthy if your up for the challenge) I decided I should recreate the very first nail art entry to Nail a College Drop Out!

I wanted to do something else for today's mani but that can wait I suppose. Neon flowers are more fun right? Right.

From thumb to pinky I used Icing Grande Margarita, China Glaze In The Lime Light, Dare To Wear Teddy,  Color Club Psychedelic Scene, and China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy.


Then I stamped with Wet n Wild Wild Shine Black Créme and Bundle Monster plate BM-225.

My little nail polish corner of the internet has been here for three years! Thanks for sticking around this long!! As always continue to...
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.
Nothing To Disclose

Bundle Monster is having their annual nail art contest to win a set of their new stamping plates. I like free stuff and nail art so I was compelled to enter.

I've seriously been lacking in the nail art department lately. So, I'm deciding to run right back to my first love, nail art! I hope you guys like what I have planned.



I can't stop staring at my nails! I think I just might be in love!

Welp, I should be getting ready for work as opposed to typing this post.
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

You sexy little thing! You know you love Victoria's Secret! So it is only right to have Victoria's Secret inspired nails!


For this mani I did a gradient of Wet n Wild Fast Dry Everybody Loves Redmond, Icing Hot Date, and H&M Purple In Paris. And stamped over it with Sally Hansen Color Quick Gold Chrome and Bundle Monster plate BM21.

Happy Valentine's Day you little vixen!
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

Since I named my blog Nail A College Drop Out; I figured I should do a post on the college I spent three semesters of my life at.

I don't have much of an introduction for this post. And I'm pretty darn sure my Oral Communications teacher would probably hang her head in shame. So here we go.


I started with three coats of China Glaze Light As Air from the Up & Away collection (Spring 2010), sponged Color Club Sugar Plum Fairy (Holiday 2011), and stamped with China Glaze Four Leaf Clover--also from the Up & Away collection--using Bundle Monster Plate BM203.

Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

This post is for a friend of mine. Remember when I asked you your favorite color? Here's why.


*Color Club Almost Famous

You know what it is.
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

Would it be Christmas without Gingerbread Men? Of course not!


I started with two coats of China Glaze Blonde Bombshell and stamped the Gingerbread Man using a mixture of Essie Lady Godiva and OPI Suzi Loves Cowboys with Bundle Monster plate BM-222.


"Me not *take* cookies, me *eat* the cookies."
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

By now we've all seen that Kanye West video featuring everybody and their mama, All of the Lights. You know, the one that may or may not be liable for causing a few seizures? Did I go a little too far with that last joke? Maybe. Anyway, after being bombarded with probably one million different colors within a five minute time span. I came up with this little manicure.

And who says television stifles creativity? Aside from the nut job I lived with my freshman year of college? Yup, eat your words please and thank you.

Things you'll need: cosmetic wedges, bundle monster plate BM19, white nail polish, six neon colors of your choosing, black nail polish, and a top coat of your choice.
*L-R NK Nail Enamel Yellow, Sinful Colors Rise and Shine, Sinful Colors Fly Away, Sinful Colors Dream On, NK Nail Enamel Cotton Candy, NK Nail Enamel Orange.

Step 1: Paint all of your nails white.
Step 2: Use cosmetic sponge to apply colored nail polish; repeat for all six colors. Let dry.
Step 3: Using your black nail polish, stamp image from BM19 onto nails.
Step 4: Apply no chip top coat.
Step 5: Sit back and let the compliments roll in.


Tune in, drop out, love polish.

Last month I ordered Bundle Monster's new set of stamping plates. After ogling my bounty, I noticed BM plate 215 has a pattern on it that reminds me of a turtle shell. Thus, birthing this manicure.
Left to Right: Sinful Colors Last Chance, Orly Luxe, and Orly Seal On Top Coat

Neons = Summer
Summer = Awesome

Thus, Neons = Awesome

I have an endless love affair with neons and I can never wear just one. So, I'm going to stop typing and show you the pictures.
L-R: Icing Grande Margarita, China Glaze In The Lime Light, Color Club Chelsea Girl, Color Club Psychedelic Scene, & China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy.
