This months duo is camping themed - which is pretty obvious considering the title of my blog post. Haha! The duo is being released this Friday, September 12th, at Noon EST. If you haven't already set your alarms, then you better get to it! There will only be 30 sets available for sale - 15 on Jessica's store and 15 on Alison's store.

And now it's mani time!


Whenever you have a duo, it's a MUST to pair the two together. So that is exactly what I did! If you are wondering what polishes I used to create this mani, then you better read this damn blog post over and figure it out. Hahaha! I got the lovely little white flower charms from Alison. Aren't they adorable?! I used single chevron stripe nail stencils by Nails Redesigned to create the look on my middle and ring fingers.

Wrapping up this blog post with a lovely collage!

If you are wondering what polishes I used to do this mani, please read the paragraph above. I got the lovely black bow from my good friend Alison @candiedapplepolish. She is pretty damn awesome, if I do say so myself! I used striping tape to do the color block design on my middle finger and tiny chevron nail stencils by Nails Redesigned to create the look on my pointer and pinky fingers.

Today I have Ooh La Lacquer's complete Fall Collection to share with you. This collection will be released Monday, September 8th. Please prepare yourself for all the amazing holo goodness you are about to see!


Swatch of "Champagne Papi"


Macro shot of "Champagne Papi"


"Champagne Papi" is a champagne linear holographic polish. Shown above is two coats without a top coat. This polish is outstanding. It seriously looks good enough to drink, but please don't do that! Polish is meant for painting your nails not drinking ladies.


Swatch of "Raisin Hell"


Macro shot of "Raisin Hell"


"Raisin Hell" is a raisin colored linear holographic polish. Shown above is two coats without a top coat. I love this polish! It is so pretty and totally reminds me of Fall. I'm not a huge fan of raisin's but if raisin's looked THIS GOOD - I'd eat them all the time, no joke!


Swatch of "Antiquated"


Macro shot of "Antiquated"


"Antiquated" is a brown linear holographic polish. Shown above is two coats without a top coat. Another stunning polish that is perfect for Fall. I don't know what it is about brown, but I love it! Definitely one of my favorite colors to wear (especially during Fall) and it's the color of chocolate, so obviously that's a plus. 


Swatch of "PeriDOPE"


Macro shot of "PeriDOPE"


"PeriDOPE" is a silvery green linear holographic polish. Shown above is two coats without a top coat. I am loving this shade of green. It is so gorgeous, even more so in person. I cannot wait to show you all a video swatch of this baby. It is going to be INSANE!


Swatch of "BLUEtiful"


Macro shot of "BLUEtiful"


"BLUEtiful" is a blue linear holographic polish. Shown above is two coats without a top coat. Another stunner! I mean just look at that swatch and macro. Those pictures don't lie! This polish is most definitely BLUEtiful and I am in LOVE!


Swatch of "Run, Forest"


Macro shot of "Run, Forest"


"Run, Forest" is a forest green linear holographic polish. Shown above is two coats without a top coat. I swear this polish makes me feel like I'm in the woods. And not the scary kind of woods, the magical kind like the ones in fairy tales. I'm obsessed with this polish and so is my boyfriend, Chris. It is his all time favorite color. But please don't tell him I told you that, he may just take me out to the woods (the scary kind) and leave me there if he knew. Haha!


Swatch of "Marooned Ashore"


Macro shot of "Marooned Ashore"


"Marooned Ashore" is a maroon linear holographic polish. Shown above is two coats without a top coat. I don't even know what to say about this polish. The pictures say it all. Abso-freakin'-lutely AMAZING! Yep, that's it. Excuse me while I'm over here swooning over this beauty. Is this real life?


Swatch of "Goldie Faun"

There is no way I can pick a favorite from these nine polishes. They are all gorgeous and I love them all equally! The formula on each one of these polishes is crazy good and applying them was smooth and easy - just like every other polish by Nastassia (creator of Ooh La Lacquer.)

Pretty Woman Review: "Denim" Collection

Today on the blog I have five polishes by Pretty Woman to share with you. These polishes are from their "Denim" Collection.


First up, is "Denim Pink"


Macro shot of "Denim Pink"


"Denim Pink" is a lightly textured pink polish. Shown above is one coat without a top coat. I've never seen a textured polish textured so lightly before. I really like the way it looks!


Next up, is "Denim Dark Blue"


Macro shot of "Denim Dark Blue"


"Denim Dark Blue" is a lightly textured dark blue polish. Shown above is one coat without a top coat. The light texture really pops with this color! I am obsessing over the macro shot of it.


Now it's time for "Denim Blue"


Macro shot of "Denim Blue"


"Denim Blue" is a blue polish with a silver shimmer throughout. Shown above is one coat without a top coat. This is my second favorite from the collection. It was definitely hard to choose between the two. My favorite polish beat it only by a small margin.


Next up is my favorite, "Denim Light Blue"


Macro shot of "Denim Light Blue"


"Denim Light Blue" is a light blue polish with a silver shimmer throughout. Shown above is one coat without a top coat. This is my favorite of this five polish collection! I am absolutely obsessed with it. It is such a pretty shade of blue.


Last but not least, is "Denim Black"


Macro shot of "Denim Black"


"Denim Black" is a black polish with a silver shimmer throughout. Shown above is one coat without a top coat. This polish totally reminds me of the night sky. It's absolutely stunning. Even more so in person!



The "Demin" Collection by Pretty Woman is absolutely outstanding! This is the first time I've dealt with a complete collection that are all one coaters. I know I said I am a two coat kind of girl but it would have been completely unnecessary to do so in this case! The formula for all of these polishes is amazing and application was smooth and easy.
