Where in the World - Day 7 Denmark

Today I have a little story. Princess Mary of Denmark is Australian by birth, she was born in Tasmania. And we just recently went on a holiday, which included Hobart - her birth place. So, you can understand how I found my inspiration very quickly:

Hello, kitty!

I was recently combing through my stash looking for items to part with (check out the blogsale - I added heaps of new stuff!!) and I found this Hello Kitty polish that I don't think I've worn yet.

Hello Kitty Violet Salom
It took a gazillion pictures to capture the shimmer/duochrome/whatever-it-is-called-greatness in the bottle, in real life it is very obvious in the bottle and on the nails though.

THREE Nail Art Challenge - Day 8 Edgy

The first thing that came to mind when I read "edgy", was fashion, shoes, trends etc. So I did a bit of searching on the internets, and found these:

Where in the World - Day 6 USA

Hey everyone!!! Today's post is so special to me - I've been looking forward to it since I joined the challenge. I don't think I've mentioned this on the blog before, but I actually grew up in the US (lived there from 1985 to 1989 and then from 1992 to 1997). Since we left Washington D.C. I have not been back, but I hope to visit in the future. This is my inspiration photo:

Yep, that's me and my mum at the Cherry Blossom festival

Where in the World - Day 5 Poland

Horray! A country I have been to and a place I visited - Szczecin! It's a lovely city on the Oder River and is close to the Baltic Sea. I welcomed 2004 NY there while visiting family friends. That evening we went to listen to a classical music concert, so I thought I would recreate the new  Philharmonic building:

Doesn't it remind you of an iceberg or maybe an icicle, or a crystal?

Where in the World - Day 4 Israel

Getting back to the Where in the World? challenge, hosted by Gosia from Life in Color! and Jin from Superficially Colorful. The next country is Israel and for my inspiration I chose the Wailing Wall:

I have never been to Jerusalem or any part of Israel, but this was the first thing that came to mind.

Blog Sale (?)

Hey lovely readers! 
I need to know - would it be OK to host a blog sale? Or would you like to see my stash first (over 300 bottles, over 25 brands)? Perhaps a swap is better? Let me know what you think, thanks! ;)

THREE Nail Art Challenge - Day 6 Emotion

So this one was a head-scratcher of a theme: what is an emotion? what is a feeling? How do i choose just one? and then when I do choose it - how do I represent it? I had been thinking about this for about a week now (cra-a-a-zy!) The obvious ones were love, happiness, unicorns and rainbows, and all things sweet; unfortunately that's not real life. Look at this little dude:
