Bad Romance


Love her or leave her - GaGa is definitely one to make a major statement.  GaGa's Workshop Collection, currently available at Barney's does not disappoint.  The exclusive Holiday collection includes a little bit of everything- from onesies and t-shirts, to leather jackets, biker hats and gloves, to eyelashes and - you guessed it - nail polish and accessories.  The nail looks are just as over the top as the entertainer herself, but shamelessly fun (much like the entertainer herself.) 
 Here are a few of my picks:

Press On Nails - $45.00

Tribal Press On's - $45.00

Flame Press On Nails - $225.00

Pinned

I know I am way late to the party - but about a week ago, I FINALLY caught on to the current craze sweeping the masses (or at least all the southern girls I'm friends with on Facebook), PINTEREST.  I signed up for the site months ago, but never really gave it a chance until recently - thanks to my cousin Erin, who would not rest until I drank the kool-aid.  Well, I drank it, and in one short week I feel like I've been sucked into a little bit of a black hole.  I love all the fashion inspiration, home organization and decor, recipes, and hair and beauty looks that seem to be never-ending.  Additionally, there are more nail looks than I can count just waiting for me to give them a whirl.  I am seriously having trouble deciding what to try first. 

 Here are my top contenders:

I am beyond overwhelmed with nail art and inspiration.  My one pet peeve regarding Pinterest is that I find it incredibly frustrating when people do not credit the original website for the pin.  Notice I took extra care to credit each site on here?  Bloggers take note - always give credit where credit is due!

Technicolor Tips

My newest colorful endeavor....



I achieved this look (you have no idea how tempted I was to title it "Just the Tip") but scotch-taping my tips off, then painting my nails with two coats of Chinchilly by Essie.  Then, I used various bottles of Kiss Cosmetics nail artist paint (the brushes are super skinny) to create a rainbow french mani.
