Hauls and Nail Mail: Birthday Edition!

You guys, I've gotten nail mail every day this week. EVERY DAY! It's been awesome :D Recently, several this have coincided to create this insane week of nail mail. These things were 1.) My birthday presents 2.) the end of Lent (I gave up buying polish) 3.) Super awesome friends and 4.) Going to Dallas for a weekend. I've decided to present the polishes in the order I received them.
Everything from this week together.
Friday:
Love & Beauty Purple Glitter and Green Glitter (with large hex glitter!) Icing Power to the Pink, Mr. Right Now and Radio Super Star.
So, I bought these before Easter Sunday, but Lent was technically over. I had to run to the mall to buy an Icing polish for my spring surprise and couldn't resist these.

Sunday:
Sinful Colors Athens, Greek Isles, and Grecian Sun. Revlon Fall Mood and Rain Forest. Sally Hansen Celeb City and Golden I. Confetti Tazmanian Devil.
On Easter Sunday I HAD to go buy polish since I could and I had just gotten paid. I got these at Walgreens and CVS.

Monday:
Savvy Ruby Slippers. China Glaze Flip Flop Fantasy, Sunshine Pop, and Grape Juice.
When I got home on Monday I had 3 packages waiting for me! This is from Ashley in my awesome birthday group!
a England Perceval, Bridal Veil, Ascalon, and Princess Tears.
My mom bought these for me for my birthday :)
Plate LO01, nail polish remover pump and plate QA9.
And my plates I ordered forever ago and a nail polish remover pump! I'd kinda forgotten about these lol.

Tuesday:
Zoya Remove+, Meg, Zuza, Shelby, Tracie and Wednesday.
My brother's birthday present to me! LOVE!
OPI In My Back Pocket and Need Sunglasses.
My awesome friend Melanie had an awesome surprise for me when I picked her up to go see Titanic! (Side note: I hadn't seen Titanic since it was last in theaters. When I was 7. You guys, that movie is...scarring. And slightly traumatic. I was freaking out so much that I was picking polish off my nails. I'm still not sure if I enjoyed it haha.)

Wednesday:
Adorable packaging!
OPI Simmer & Shimmer, Kleancolor Chunky Holo Fuchsia and OPI Glow Up Already!
This package was from another birthday group girl! Lexi at Finger Painted. Loved the packaging and the super pretty bubble wrap :) Also, I was super excited that I finally got some of the Burlesque glitter. I LOVE THAT MOVIE. A musical with Cher in it? What's not to love?
Deborah Lippmann Mermaid's Dream, Footloose, and Almost Paradise.
Then my order from HSN. I had planned to buy Mermaid's Dream at Nordstrom in Dallas, but we didn't get to go, so I ordered it online. And threw in a Footloose set that was on clearance.

Thursday:
Love the wrapping :)
Lush Lemony Flutter Cuticle Butter, Barry M Spring Green, Tangerine, and Red Glitter. Models Own Emerald City and Juicy Jewels.
Another birthday package! This is from Miagi at PrettyKittyClaws. Gorgeous colors and my first Lemony Flutter! I'm in love with it!
Kleancolor Metallic Pink, Metallic Red, Metallic Orange, and Metallic Mango.
Kleancolor Metallic Yellow, Metallic Green, Metallic Aqua,  Metallic Sapphire,  and Metallic Purple.
Kleancolor Metallic Purple, Coffee Addict, Metallic Black, and Metallic White.
I kept hearing how great the Kleancolor Metallics were for stamping, so I broke down and ordered them. I got this set of 13 for $15.20 on eBay!
Cult Nails Vicious, Let Me Fly, and Quench.
And what I ordered from the Cult Nails $5 sale. So pretty and I can't wait to try them!

Friday:
Sally Hansen Flash. Models Own Purple Blue, Indian Ocean, and Aqua Violet.
I got my Polish-aholics Anonymous Spring Surprise package from Charlotte at Charlotte's Nails! These are sooo pretty! The stickers are adorable and the polishes!!! I was jumping up and down because I was so excited.

Saturday:
Whimsical Ideas by Pam Seuss and I Believe in Fairies.
Bottle shots.
I got my order from Whimsical Ideas by Pam! I can't wait to try these pretties out!

Ok, after this insane week. I'm slowing down. But I still have more birthday package on my way to me through the month of April, so I'll still have nail mail to look forward to! Thank you to all the lovely ladies (and my brother) that contributed to this insanely awesome polish haul!

31 Day Challenge: Day 23-Inspired by a Movie

Crappy pics from the Blogger app because I'm not going home for another 7 hours and I don't have my computer :( I'm not exactly sure why I chose this movie, but it's one of my favorites :) The Wedding Singer takes place in 1985 and is about a wedding singer haha. I did the broken heart because in the movie he sings Love Stinks after he's had his heart broken and it's sad, uncomfortable and hilarious. The splatter and color blocking are just 80s looking and the mic because he's a wedding singer. Then the thumb is the initials of the main characters, Robbie Hart and Julia...Stewart. I kinda forgot that was her last name when I painted this haha. I always refer to her as Julia Gulia. Then I added music notes because of her gift to him the song he sings her. I love this, especially the splatter!
Colors used: Icing white, Confetti Black Tie, China Glaze Salsa, China Glaze Make an Entrance, Zoya Mitzi, China Glaze Four Leaf Clover. I also used Bundle Monster plate BM 17. Remember to go check the other ladies' blogs for their takes on the challenge!

Haul and Nail Mail!!!

So, I got paid and went a little polish crazy. I ordered some stuff online, got some Ulta coupons and found the Finger Paints Flakies!!!
Top row: The colors I lacked from the Wet n Wild Ice Baby Collection (half off at Walgreens!!!) Give Me a Price Quote, It's All in the Cut 24 Karats. Also Orly Rock-It from Ulta.
Second Row: From Sally's Finger Paints Flakies, Orly Au Champagne (half off), Seche Vite (my first bottle!), China Glaze Trendsetter ($1.99) From Free Cycle: Revlon Get Reddy and OPI Glove You So Much
Third row: From CVS Confetti Black Tie, Spoiled Shuffle the Deck and Revlon Peach Smoothie. From Icing Christmas Mini Set ($2!!!!!).
Not pictured: OPI Planks A Lot. I couldn't find it for the pic, but eventually did.

I'm super excited to try out the flakies. I asked my brother to send me a pic of my recent purchases while I was at work and he arranged the flakies like that for the picture. I liked it and stole his arrangement :) I'm also really excited about Shuffle the Deck because it's my school colors! And it has BLACK GLITTER!!!!

I ordered this from Trans Design last Friday and got it tonight. It should've been here last night, but the autofill option at the computer at work had my address wrong for some reason. I contacted Trans Design right after I found out and they fixed and responded very quickly. 

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!

I also stuck in Revlon Whimsical that I got today at K-Mart. The China Glazes are Paper Chasing, Atlantis (SWOOOON!), Skyscraper, Pelican Gray, Concrete Catwalk, Midtown Magic, Cowardly Lyin', Ten Man, C-C-Courage, and Good Witch? All the China Glazes were $3, except for Atlantis. It was like $3.85, but still totally worth it!

I now have all the Wizard of Ooh Ahz!!!

I still have my Julep box on the way as well as some things I'm bidding on on Ebay.
