Belated New Year's Nails & 2013 Review

Thursday, January 2, 2014

Hi!

It's 2014! I have to admit I didn't have the most exciting New Year's ever -- my flight was delayed so I ended up spending NYE on a plane, with *gasp* naked nails.

Well, I guess worse things have happened.

Anyways, I felt like I was missing out on the whole festive New Year's partying thing, so I did some belated New Year's nails! 

Deborah Lippmann Fantastic Voyage and Nails Inc Baker Street 

I wanted to be able to wear these around for the rest of the week without feeling stupid, so I decided against writing a big "2014!!" on my nails.
Instead, I opted for a glitter gradient with Deborah Lippmann Fantastic Voyage (the glitter, of the Starlight collection) and Nails Inc Baker Street (the blue base). 

Uff, my skin looks so strange in this photo. //grr

I guess it would be acceptable for me to do a 2013 roundup sort of thing, but I've only been blogging since August so I'll make it really short.

2013's Accomplishments
1. Bought my first bottles of nail polish ever in March (I had worn nail polish before, but never bought any for myself)
2. Started this blog in August!
3. Learned to clean up my cuticles
4. Built a lightbox which improved my photography so much you won't even.. 
5. Learned to pose my hand

For a bit of comparison, here's a photo from one of my posts in August:

Deformed zombie-like hands. And the cuticles -- gross!

In other news, I redesigned my blog yesterday (I'm honestly ready to kill Blogger now) and I'm really happy with the new design! What do you guys think?

 Anyways.  This is becoming a super long post so I'll stop now!

Well, one last photo.

Isn't Fantastic Voyage beautiful?

Thanks for reading & be sure to let me know what you think!
