Polka Dot Skittle Mani

Week 9 of the Year of Polish challenge is all about the polka dots!

I tried a few different things before I finally settled on this look. It's not the most creative but it's really eye catching!


Sally Hansen in Coral Reef
Color Club in Pucci-licious
Orly in Spark
Orly in Green Apple
China Glaze in Aqua Baby

In other news, I hit 200 followers last week so I'm putting together a little giveaway. I'm waiting on a couple more items before I begin though so you can look forward to that :)

I'm also going to a research conference this week which means I probably won't update until I get back. I'm very excited! It's in Melbourne, Florida right on the beach :D This is my very first real, professional conference... And I'm presenting a poster there. Eek! I'm a little nervous but thankfully my presentation is the second day of the conference which means that I get to enjoy the rest of the trip without worry ^_^

Now I need to find the perfect nail art for the occasion... hmm... anyone have any ideas?

Until next time ^_^

I love all these colors, they look great together! Congrats on 200 followers, looking forward to your giveaway! And good luck with your poster presentation! Hmmm ideas for the occasion... well I don't know what exactly you're studying but I know it has to do with neuroscience... so... neurons?!
