Teenage Regression

Remember back in high school when you had a crush on a boy and you'd write all over your notebook?  You'd write your name with his last name surrounded by a heart? Yeah, I've regressed all the way back there.  It's disgusting.  I'm sick of me already, aren't you?

Why is it that a new love does this to us?  We go along, all bad ass and tough, then a man comes along and suddenly you're all smiles and light.  People at work are like, "what's wrong with you?"  Trust me, I am happy and all is well with the new BF.  These are just random thoughts that have been roaming through my brain.  I like being all bad ass-it's what I do.

Here's an example.  The other day, I was driving along, and there was this huge red pickup truck in front of me going slow.  I have a progression of hand gestures that I use when people don't get out of my way.  I noticed on the back of this truck, that there were Christmas Candy Canes and a statement of, "we will see you December 24." Well, she was also talking on the cellphone as well as not getting out of my way.  So after several hand gestures, I pulled out the big guns and flashed my middle finger-well manicured of course.  Finally, she got over and as I passed, I looked into the truck and there in the passenger side was Santa Claus.  I kid you not, it was the local old dude that plays Santa around the holidays.

I'm going to Hell people and getting coal in my stocking this Christmas!  I just had to laugh.

On to today's mani.  Here is your silly bottle shot.


This is Elevation Polish Matsuda and A England Jane Eyre.  I thought red would be perfect for my teenage regression as well as Santa story!

I started with Matsuda.  This is one stunning perfect red with the most gorgeous shimmer that looks pink in some light, blue in others.  It is in my top 5 most favorite reds.  This went for sale in September and most likely will be back for November 7.  I did an accent nail with Jane Eyre because the shimmer in this almost matches the red of Matsuda.

Here are the starting shots.

Swoon people!  Are you not in love with these two together?  I am loving this Gothic collection from A England.  It is my idea of vamp perfection.  I love the shimmer in this Matsuda.  Go back and check it out again. Notice how it brings out the shimmer in the Jane Eyre.  Stunning.

My thoughts were that I was going to stamp with some sappy hearts or something of that sort, but I came across the perfect design to match my situation.  I used the opposite color and Cheeky plate CH53 from their summer collection.  Here is that step.

Yes people, I have become pathetic.  For those who aren't sure what this says-it says "I heart my BF."  I then finished it off with my funky as always.  Here are the results.

I did text this to my BF and he loved it!  He actually thinks it's cool that I blog and loves my nail art.  So that is definitely a plus for him.  Most guys either make fun or could care less.  I like that about him.

Is this not the most gorgeous pair of reds going?  I am so in love with these it's not even funny.

Is it pathetic or sweet that I did this mani?  I promise you this blog will not become all pink and light and sappy.  When I saw this design, I just had to use it.

Santa, if you are reading this?  I'm sorry for flipping you off!

Until next time people.  Any thoughts out there?
