This is the ceiling in Bloomingdale’s in downtown SF. I always love looking up into the blue sky through the glass, but I especially love it when they have huge wreaths and sparkling lights all over for the holidays.
These are some wackadoo goats here! We pass by this little ranch house a lot, and I always see these goats balancing on these concrete thingies. I never had my camera ready but this time it was too good to pass up!
Happy New Years Eve folks!
Orly has released a collection of metallic matte polishes called Metal Chic. These are all metallic, matte and yet still packed with glitter and shimmer.
The formula on these was fabulous. It took just two coats to get them opaque, they applied evenly and smooth and dried quickly. I’ll wager they look amazing with a top coat on also, but I haven’t yet tried that. Check them out below.
1. How has your week been treating you so far? Oh kinda up and down, but I’m glad I’m not working this week!
2. If you celebrate Christmas and exchanged gifts, what was your favorite gift that you received? I love the Marc Ecko watch I got (even though I loathe Marc Ecko himself, I am a watch fanatic). It’s a stainless steel man’s watch with a big round face and major bling. I don’t like small watches, so this is perfect.
3. What’s on your nails? RBL in Bruised.
4. Any New Years Eve plans? I haven’t gone out on New Years Eve in about 8 years (I went to Reno then, and it was PACKED!) My standard New Years Eve now consists of me staying home with N___. (formally known as the hubbie) and eating delicious Italian stuff like salami, cheese, olives, pesto & sourdough bread and drinking Veuve Clicquot champagne. Oh and some kind of dessert of course. 
5. What was your favorite nail polish of 2009? I am gonna say something obvious here and pick Vampy Varnish. Not only because it’s named after my blog, but also because I SO wanted a black with olive green glitter!
6. Do you have any resolutions for 2010? Oh man I struggle with this because on the one hand I hate resolutions because no one ever really sticks with them, but on the other, a new year is a fresh start. So I will say my resolutions are A. to get healthier by actually exercising and eating better and B. Stop focusing on other people’s successes and comparing them to mine.
7. Are you a Mac or a PC? Mac all the way, but I use a PC at work. I’m computer ambidextrous. The only thing is, N___. works on computers, but doesn’t know much about Macs. So if my Mac goes bad, I gotta haul it to the store. BUT, it never, ever has because Macs rule! 
8. Do you watch 30 Rock? Yes and I think it’s the second best comedy ever next to (all hail) Seinfeld.
9. What personality trait do you have that you like about yourself? I must say I rather like my snarkiness, even though it might drive others crazy. My three closest friends are also snarky, and they totally get me more than any other friends I have.
10. What’s your favorite kind of chocolate, milk, dark or white? I used to be a white chocolate kinda gal, but now I find it’s too sweet in most cases. I love dark chocolate the most. Milk is just meh to me, unless it’s really good milk chocolate (no Hershey’s for me.)

Hey everyone!
I have part II of China Glaze’s Up & Away spring 2010 collection for you today.
These are also all cremes, but they are brights, not pastels like the ones yesterday. Needless to say these all applied a lot less streaky than the pastels did. They were mostly two coats compared to mostly there coats with part I. Peep ‘em!
Happy Go Lucky
Happy Go Lucky is a sunny yellow that’s on the cusp of being too warm for me. This was much less streaky than Lemon Fizz, but Lemon Fizz looks better for my skin tone.
