2011 Favorites!

Happy New Year!

I guess I will jump on the 2011 recap bandwagon LOL...
I have only been blogging since late March, so I don't have a "full year" to choose from. Plus my polish addiction is relatively new. So I will just show you some of my favorite posts! We shall also see my "improvements" over the year! How fun! Let's take a trip back in time shall we...


Definitely one of my favorites is Nubar Purple Rain! I will have to re-swatch this one and get some better photos of it!


Nubar Costa Rica Coral mini! I really loved this color on me! 

Nubar Lemon Sherbet! It is such a flattering yellow! Perfect for spring!

OPI DS Glamour! How could I not?!

Sephora by OPI Spark-tacular Top Coat! One of my favorite multi-glitters!


Sephora by OPI 212-Sephora is such an awesome polish!

OPI My Private Jet HOLO!! But of course!!

KOH Blue Universe, epically awesome on so many levels!

OPI DS Exclusive and one of Memmy's roses!


Orly Galaxy Girl! Another surprising beauty!

Glitter Gal Lizard Belly! One of the best holos out there!



OPI DS Original, is it still my favorite of all time? 


Makeup Store Greta. EPIC WIN!!

China Glaze Fortune Teller! I wish Fortune Teller would tell me where it's label went!

OPI Glow-Ink in the Dark! Purple glow in the dark polish, what more could you want?!

Illamasqua Baptiste! The perfect purple polish!

Cult Nails Unicorn Puke (over Illamasqua Baptiste)! Probably the best nail polish of 2011!

Nubar Black and White Polka Dot! I am a sucker for black and white dots!

These are all great!!! Glow-Ink the Dark is amazing!! Why have I never seen that polish?? Must add to wish list immediately ;0)

illustratedlady said...

I can't believe you have only been blogging since March! You have become my number one favorite blog, and the one I go to for important news and info! The fact that you have well over 2000 followers is also mind-boggling! Congrats!
You have once again created some must-have's for me! OPI DS Glamour, Manglaze ILF, and Catrice Am I Blue or Green?. I already wanted the A-England Lady of the Lake (like everyone else alive. LOL).
I am super duper excited to get my The Glittering Crowd in the mail mid January, because it makes me gasp everytime I see it and it was your post that made me want it!
Keep up the awesome blog in the new year!

It's She Lived in a Swamp or Gotta Love Brains? All Lynnderella polishes are so cute! I have to have one of them, but it's always stock out!
