It was absolutely love at first sight with Girly Bits Twitterpated! Let's see, purple? Check. Holo? Check. Hidden pink-to-gold shifting shimmer? WHY HELLO THERE.

Chocolat & Nonpareils

It must have something to do with the seasons, but recently I've really been craving warm, chocolate-y colors, and found that I have next to none. After a bit of searching I discovered the beauty that is Illamasqua's Faithful and promptly got hold of it!

Crack-tacular and Zombie-rific!

I've been out of town with my husband visiting with his family for the past two weeks, and we had an awesome time! But I did miss out on doing more spooky manicures, so I tried to make up for it the other day with some zombie nails-- BRAAAIIINS!

Oh, Shift!

Today I'd like to share with you one of Girly Bits' outstanding color-changing topcoats, Shift Happens.

Bits of Ocean

I've been fairly obsessed with color-shifting polishes, especially blue with pink shimmer, and so I give you Models Own Indian Ocean, a breathtaking duochrome.

Stormy Cement

This manicure was inspired by a beautiful polish from Girly Bits, Stormy Skies.

Sally Hansen Wet Cement + Finger Paints Motley + Pure Ice Heartbreaker

I think the blue/green & purple flecks in Motley and the green shimmer in Heartbreaker contrast really nicely against the pale grey, and give the look of an overcast and stormy blue-grey sky. The shimmer in Girly Bits Stormy Skies is actually much brighter and denser though, and I really love the almost jelly-like look the polish has, which has more blue in it as well. So while I think this manicure is similar in color, well, that's really it. :P

I was actually incredibly lucky enough to win a giveaway of Pam's including Hippity Hop and a polish of my choice, so of course I chose the amazing Shift Happens, a spectacular color changing topcoat. Honestly I wasn't as excited about Hippity Hop until I saw it in person-- wow! Such a gorgeous and delightfully springtime-y assortment of glitters. Here it is over Models Own Indian Ocean; love this combo!
