Butterfly Dancer

Hello and happy, happy friday!

By now I am almost to my reservation which some of you know, is Mille Lacs. I'm off to pow wow it up! A pow wow is a HUGE Native American celebration.
Check out some awesome photos here if you're curious. There's tons of dancers and drummers and of course, food!
I'm a fancy shawl dancer and the nickname for fancy shawl dancers is butterfly dancers because of the way they twirl. Here's a video of a ton of fancy shawl dancers from the Gathering of Nations from this year.
I'll be sure to take tons of pictures to bring back with me and eat tons of frybread tacos for all of you!

As for my nail art I've mimicked the butterfly theme and matched the colors to my outfit. 
Tada!



My first attempt at butterfly nails went terrible. This time I would say things went well!

I used
China Glaze - Fancy Pants and Turned up Turquiose  as the base colors
and 
Kleancolor - Afternoon Picnic for the glitters
as well as Sally Hansen - Crystal Beading for the glittery details.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend as I'll be dancing my butt off!

Butterfly Bunday

Hello and Happy Cinco de Mayo as well as Sunday Bunday!
Regarding this mani. Have you ever had those days where you polish your nails and nothing is turning out right? This mani was the result of 3, yes 3, failed mani's and finally I was just like EFF IT *ANGRY SLATHERING OF NAIL POLISH* *ANGRY CREATION OF THE FIRST THING THAT POPS INTO MY HEAD* *ANGRY REMOVAL OF THE STUPID SWIRLY DESIGN* *ANGRY REPOLISH AND DESIGN OF THE NEXT THING THAT POPS INTO MY HEAD*

I'm not proud of it but it was all I could pull off in such angry circumstances!




Even as I put my blog watermark on it I thought to myself, Why bother, no one would wish to steal these anyway!

In a happier occasion, we shall all now view the wonderful, the furry, the I-tear-up-mommies-carpet-because-I'm-bored-even-though-I-have-at-least-twenty-toys, the one and only HARVEY!



Not to mention he enjoys tearing up his bed too! Exhibit A in the picture above.
BTW, he's licking his piggy in the bottom picture, he loves licking soft things like piggy and ducky and his bed!

Happy Cinco de Bunday!
