Late Easter

Hey guys! Hope you had a good laugh with my April Fools Joke. It wasn't the best but I thought it was pretty funny :D Just a joke though, to anyone who thought otherwise!
Anyways, it's a little late, but here's my Easter mani. I know you guys have been interested in more nail art, and I figured -while I'll still mainly be swatches and I'm never gonna be a crazy nail art person- I'd show you a little something here and there :D
I decided to do a simple pastel rainbow gradient manicure. There are a bazillion tutorials out there, so I won't right one out , but if your interested I'll post a couple links to good ones.
For this mani I used Nails Inc Nottingham Carnival, Julep Courtney, Joe Fresh Wave and Julep Renee, in that order. I used a plain white creme polish as a base for opacity.
As a first attempt, this was pretty simple. It didn't take much longer than a normal mani and the design makes it super easy to mess up, but still have it turn out great :) this looks a bit worn, I only got a chance to take pics 3-4 days after! Sorry!
Here it is!

Rhinestones + Awesome Polish = Hell To The Yes!!!

Hello everyone!
I'm am writing to at a ridiculously late time, but oh well! I have lots of international readers, so maybe this is a good thing for them...
Anyways, I'm here to show you my 200th nail polish in my collection (not including polishes in my blog sale, future giveaway pile, or ones being sent out for swaps). Anyways, it's such a gorgeous colour, and I think it's perfect for such a milestone. Not to mention its covered in crystals...
Behold, Nail Inc Baker Street Crystal Colour. Holy wow. I recently picked up 2 of these babies (the other one is a gray I forget the name of :/ ) at Sephora for $12 each, aka the same price as a normal Nails Inc., and boy, they are something special. Not to mention I've been lemming Baker Street forever, but the bottles are to die for, especially for someone as sparkle loving as myself.
Anyways, here's 3 coats of Baker street, no topcoat, natural sunlight. Feast your eyes on the gorgeous.

Also, I should add that I am going on a No-Buy for Febuary and March. I have recently bought so many nail polishes, and have done/ am doing so many swaps I figured I should lay low for a month or two. I'm not overspending on polish yet, but I need to use some of my new ones and give myself a break. I have one Melmer right now (with 2 polish drawers) and although I might also get a spice rack or two, I am limiting my storage at that, as I don't think I would be able to fully appreciate any more than that. So other than buying/getting a few more swap polishes, and getting the rest of my stuff for my Blogiversary giveaway, there won't be to many polishes in my near future :)
