Daily/Weekly Nail Challenge #23: Monochromatic Nightmare Before Christmas
Today’s theme is Nightmare Before Christmas! One of my favorite movies ever! Tim Burton is such a phenomenal human being. In honor of one of his fantastic movies, I decided to do a monochromatic look, using nothing but black and white.
From L to R: Jack Skellington’s suit, “Jack and Sally”, textural nail (black and white crackle), and Jack’s captivating smile. :)

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. :)

St. Patrick’s Day design — gold and dotted rainbows!
Just a simple, whimsical St. Patrick’s Day design!
Inspired by a skirt I found on Tobi.com. They named the skirt ‘Night Crawl’ and I was obsessed with the name and the pattern. So, in honor of the skirt that’s not in my size, I give you my Nightcrawler nails!
Shaky hands got the best of me tonight, argh.
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!
