It all DOTS to Me

Good Morning Dolls!!!! I hope you have all had a great week!!! As I sit here drinking my coffee and listen to the TV playing in the background (the movie Twister, one of my favs), I am reminded of how far I have come with this little blog:) I just started out documenting my weekly (sometimes daily) manis and now I get the fabulous opportunity to review polish and have met some of the best most supporting women I have had the privilege to know!!! For Today's Mani, I wanted to take it back a little. Two of my favorite "nail art" techniques when I first got started were Skittles and Dots:) throw in a little Holo and I was all over it!!!  And looking at this mani I remember why I fell in Love with Polish:) 



This mani is so fun, and my 6yr old loves it!!! Here are the polishes I used with links on how to get your own:)
Pointer (Blue) - Chirality Quarks, Zoya Ryan
Pinky (Red/Pink) - Chirality Bloodshot, Zoya Veronica

I am so happy with the way this mani turned out, the past couple of months I have been super slack on nail art but wearing this mani the last couple of days has reignited my love for it:)

Zoya Entice Swatches and Review

Happy Friday Dolls!!! Wow this week has been absolutely crazy, it seems like there is just not enough time in the day!!!  My baby girl is 6wks old already and growing like a weed!!! 8lbs 10oz, which means she has put on almost 3lbs since she was born!!! Now on to the fun stuff!!!
*Press Sample*
The latest Fall collection from Zoya is Entice!!! A collection of 6 rich colors perfect for the fall season!!! First up is Ryan:) This rich indigo blue is my favorite!!!! And it doesn't stain, SCORE!!!! 


Nyssa is next a warm milk chocolate brown:) Just looking at this polish makes me think of cool weather and warm sweaters!!!


Claire is a deep burgundy!!! This polish is like a good red wine, it goes with everything:) Dark and vampy, perfect for Fall!!!


Margo is the purple of this collection!!! A gorgeous red undertone make this polish stand out, now all I need is to find a sweater in this color:)


Genevieve is a cool gray with a slight silver shimmer:) This polish is my least favorite of the collection, I think it is because it feels a little dusty or muted! All the other colors are very rich!!!


Veronica is the last in this collection a deep berry pink:) A rich color that anybody can wear!!! Bright  and rich perfect for transitioning between summer and fall!!! Beware though this beauty can stain your cuticles if you are not careful:)


Zoya has hit it out of the park with Zoya Entice, it is the perfect fall creme collection!!! The formula is very well pigmented and not too thin!!! All swatches are 2 coats with a coat of SV:) All colors in this collection are $9 and the whole collection is $54 and is at www.zoya.com available now .

Yuna is a medium warm Grey with a Golden shimmer, a perfect Fall neutral without being purple, brown or red:) Classic but edgy all at the same time!!!


India is next:) A deep shimmery Red with flecks of purple and gold. A true Fall color, deep but not vampy and sooo rich!!!


Teigen is a perfect pink cranberry with a golden shimmer!!! This is my favorite of the collection it is bright but still dark, and the shimmer is so beautiful!!!


Last up is Autumn!!! Now if I had to pick a color to match a name this is it!!! A burnt orange with a golden copper shimmer!!! Like a perfect Fall sunset!!!
