Daily/Weekly Nail Challenge #22: Betsey Johnson Necklace
Today’s theme is Necklace! I am obsessed with Betsey Johnson, and I would die for her jewelry. My bird earrings are my favorite earrings and I can’t wait to get one of her chunky frontal necklaces!

This design is inspired by her Flower Girl Charm Statement necklace. You can see peeks of the black-and-white gingham behind all the bright flowers. :)

Daily/Weekly Nail Challenge #21: Pokemon
This nail challenge’s theme is Pokemon! My siblings and I were so obsessed with it when we were younger. We had the trading cards (and engaged in battles with them), the GameBoy games, just about everything. I didn’t get as into it as my brothers did, but Togepi were my favorite. They’re just always so joyful!

Daily/Weekly Nail Challenge #20: Soap Bubbles
Today’s challenge theme is bubbles! I loved playing with soap bubbles as a kid, simply because the rainbow colors they give off (reflection and refraction of light, physics physics physics) are so pretty. So I wanted my nails to give off that same effect!

Some days ago I had asked you all whether you’d like me to do video tutorials. With your thoughts and my thoughts, I came to the conclusion that I’ll start doing video tutorials! Yay!

I even went and bought another camera because my Panasonic doesn’t record video. Pretty excited!

I will warn you that I have never done any videos for the internet, so I will do my best with editing skills and all that jazz. Hopefully they’ll get better over time, but my main focus is that they’re helpful!

Let me know what tutorials you’d like to see! Take a look through my nail art… Which ones would you want to be able to learn and do?
