New York Summer Haul 2014

I was in NY for nearly two months. I don't usually go over in the summer time because of the price of the plane tickets but I went over to look after my grandparents. I did some shopping, of course, so here's a haul for you! Lots of pictures ahead! Let's start with the polish.

Yes, I did bring ALL those mugs back with me in one trip. I did have to pay for another suitcase for the flight back in order to bring them all but whatever :) Some of the stuff here (such as the snowflake charms) are things that have been at my mom's house for a long time and I only got when I arrived there in July. I'm sure there are things that I've put away already that I've forgotten about but this is enough to prove that I have a shopping problem hahaha

June 2014 Favorites

Happy July! I've had a little bit of an off month with polish. It seems that a lot of my friends are kinda burning out on polish lately. Not sure what it's about. I'm not sure if I purchased any polish in May but I did get some  from Elevation Polish and Paint Box Polish in June and I love them all. I also pre-ordered Enchanted Polish but those don't count until I actually get them :)

Elevation Polish The Med 2, Yeti's Oceanside Vacation and Elbrus 2

Paint Box Polish Fizzing Whizbees, Pygmy Puff, Acid Pops 

and Sugar Spun Quills.

March 2014 Favorites

I'm going to be starting a new feature here on the blog, where I post monthly favorites from polishes I've posted on my Facebook page. I post there 2-4 times a week there, sometimes more, sometimes less. I'm not sure how often people find or look at this blog but I thought I'd keep it up more often (well, at least once a month) by doing this.
