Round Up: My Nail Polish Obsession Favorites from 2015

Hello and happy last day of 2015!  I can't believe how quickly another year has flown by.  Did you accomplish all the resolutions you made for yourself?  Will you be making new resolutions this year? I personally don't make resolutions for the New Year because I feel that changes and goals should be made all year long, not just at the start of the year.  But if someone was twisting my arm I could list a few off of you.  So let's see...

1. Practice patience 
2. Run at least 6 half marathons 
3.  Don't take on more than I can handle (i.e. it's ok to say no)
4. Ask for help
5.  Switch my blog to Wordpress then to a .com
6. Visit my friends more often
7. Stop being so attached to my phone/internet
8. Decide what I want to do with myself next year when all of my kids will be in school!  

I guess that's it for now.  My list will change and evolve as I remove and add things according to my life at the moment.  But that's not why you are here.  You are here to see what my favorite polishes of 2015 were so let's get to it shall we?  I swear these lists are so hard.  I always have my favorite brands so picking ONE polish to showcase their awesomeness is very difficult.  Keep in mind these are MY favorites, they have nothing to do with number of likes, comments, or popularity.  I'll share links to my original posts and shops in each section.  I'm listing these in no particular order so the numbers mean nada.  And with that last bit....here we go!

Cupcake Polish Dragon Scales & Ice Ice Baby

Morning beauties!  Hope all is well and you've officially gotten back to the swing or your regular, pre-holiday season self.  Of course there's always New Years Eve but that's just staying up late and drinking, not so much over indulging in an abundance of food.  At least that's how it works in my world.  Speaking of which, any awesome nail art plans for your NYE mani?  Since I'm still vacationing I probably won't have a post but I'll try to share a pic of my mani.  Until then you can enjoy these pretty Cupcakes that I picked up a while back.  Both are unavailable now as they were A) a group custom and B) a box exclusive.  You ready to jump in with this tease of a post?  Ok, let's go then!

Winter Mani with KBShimmer Snowflakes Navy Blue Water Slide Decals & Alloy Matey!

Good morning lovelies!  My vacation continues but I am down to 1 guest blogger left and about 6 days to go until I'm back home on US soil.  So I promise to try and share some posts but there's no guarantee since this trip has been go-go-go, see-see-see, eat-eat-eat, do-do-do ALL THE THINGS!  My post for today is another easy mani using KBShimmer Water Slide Decals.  I truly love how easy these are to apply and how they make even a novice nail artist like myself feel like I have something to show off! I also like that these were cute for the holiday as well as the season.  I was also thinking these would make for some amazing Frozen/Elsa nails!  Ok well leave get on with the post!  The Snowflake Navy Blue Water Decals are available in the KBShimmer shop now for $2.95.  Alloy Matey! is also available for $8.75.  And now pictures!

Morning everyone!  Hope you had a wonderful Christmas, spending time with those you love, eating holiday favorites, giving and receiving presents!  I'm still sharing guest posts and this one features the fabulous Sheila from Pointless Cafe.  I always drool over Sheila's swatches and pictures so I was really excited she agreed to share those famous nails on my blog.  I've also never heard of the brand she's featuring so now I have a new polish line to check out!  Please be sure to swing by Pointless Cafe when you have a chance.
