Toetally Tuesday: Purple Diagonals

Toetally Tuesday again already? Phew that week really flew! How was everyone else's weekend? I did these little striped nails for today. I really liked the contrast and it ended up looking really clean so I did it on my fingernails too.
I used Zoya Julie as a base and then painted China Glaze History of the World on the diagonal. I used Art Deco in White to separate the two polishes and really make it pop.

  1. i really live this one nikki! it looks so neat and almost black and white but the purples give it something more. it's put together and serious/formal but also fun and playful. one simple look that fits the toe nails beautifully as well and i think i like it better on your feet but i love when you match toes and nails!

    1. When I match my toes and nails I always feel so put together and ready to take on the day...like let's-get-this-sh*t-handled-I'm-superwoman. Same thing happens when I have matching undergarments on (which is wayyy less frequent lol who has time for that?!)

    This is really pretty! I did something similar years ago but with Black and red with a white stripe. I didn't do all of my nails though, just the thumbs. The rest of the nails were just red. :)

Short and Sweet Tag Today we have another tag post brought to you by Ghila over at The Beauty Travelista blog. I love watching tags on YouTube (I know I'm not the only nose-y person wondering What's In My Bag?) and I considered doing them but I'm not a Youtuber so...yeah. I tried to keep this a bit relevant to the blog (you know, nails and all) but there's also some real Nikki in there too. Here we go, the Short and Sweet Tag! Short & Sweet Tag So stupid:  When I paint my fingernails and then decide I want to paint my toes...ugh. Even more stupid: DuckFeet nails! Do you remember Duck Feet nails? Best day ever:        Future: Is it corny to say my wedding day I hope!       Past: The day I received my bar passage results!       In general: Any day where something good happens to me...or any day that I have a new post here!  On replay: Episodes of The Royals....and Food Network in general (first mentioned here).  Totally loving: Nude polishes, stamping designs, working out with my love every night, having so much time to blog. Never would have thought: I'd still be blogging after 6 years. Really enjoying: Learning to cook more and blogging so frequently. Terrified of: The sound of really loud water (like waterfalls) but only if I'm standing really close to it. Hate: When people don't respect my choices because they don't agree with them. I also hate when my thumb nail breaks on the side! Love the weather when: I can wear my boots and a scarf.  Best age: Probably when I was 10-12. I was in gymnastics and had a blast. I got to be an athlete, travel places to compete, and I would even earn medals because I was damn good! Also because, you know, I wasn't stressed since I wasn't, you know, an adult. I'm the middle row middle.  Regretting: Those times I decided to cut my nails wayyyy down. No time for: I have to agree with Ghila. I have no time for negativity or people who make me feel negatively about my choices/decisions. Always hungry for: FOOOOOOOOOD! Steak and potatoes of any kind OR SUSHI! (Ghila said sushi too lol I'm just stealing her answers! But I really do love sushi!) Always ready to travel to: France (or the nail polish store).  So disgusting: I agree with Ghila again! People who make noise while they eat...ewwwwww!  Pushing myself: To be a better blogger. Also, as I'm writing this my arms are sore because I worked out yesterday...so I guess I'm also pushing myself physically, too. Really want to: Win the PowerBALL lottery! Jk, replace my car. Kind of missing: Being a student. Honest! Dancing to: my own beat? I tag everyone!
