the end is where I begin

THE PRETTIES.  This is the order these_ordinary_days and I did from Whimsical Ideas by Pam over on facebook.  The range of polishes she offers is awesome--I think I'll be needing to go back and purchase more in the future!  I picked up Seuss and Kismet's Pajamas although Peanut Butter & Jelly was so tempting (I want to steal TOD's bottle...but I'm a good friend. XD).  Maybe I'll be able to borrow it when TOD comes home...? :D  Nail Party!

On another note, that's also the replacement for the incomplete Cheshire from Lauri, the creator of Crows Toes--she's one of the nicest ladies ever (I swear indie polish makers are some of the nicest women I've ever encountered!).  The swatches between the incomplete and the complete Cheshire have already been made...I just need to get my act together and photograph them.

Swatches have also been done for my two Whimsies and will be posted soon.  I also have an order coming from Lush Lacquer...but that probably won't get here until next week.  And there are three more Enchanted Polishes on order from Llarowe, but those probably won't come for a week or so. ^^

Reminder!  Crows Toes is restocking today (Friday)!  Lauri has also posted two of her newest polishes up for sale--Gomez and Morticia from the Addams Family Collection. [EDIT: I checked the site after I posted this and...she had released everything for sale, but most of it is being held in carts or sold out.  MOU.  I missed getting Gomez and Morticia 'cause I was posting here. D:  Oh well, I guess there's always next time, right?]  Sonoma Nail Art polishes will be restocking today at 5pm Pacific (8pm Eastern) with Pinot Envy, Sonoma Sunset, Sister Sparkle the Exalted One, Clockwork, and Steampunk.  You can check out swatches and bottle shots on her facebook.  I've never bought nor tested anything from Sonoma, but her creations are very gorgeous!  Saturday, around 3pm Eastern, brings the restock of Once Upon a Polish with Day at the Fair, Arabian Nights, Sebastian, Queen of Hearts (I NEED THIS), Glitter Droppings, Poison Apple, and Black Swan.  Her facebook has swatches and bottle shots of all the colors.  The restock for HARE polish has been pushed back to next week Friday, June 22, until further notice.  I'm a bit bittersweet that I missed Windestine's restock which was yesterday (I was too busy at work to notice!)...but I'll be stalking her facebook to see when she's restocking again.

All these restocks are so tempting--it's terrible for my wallet!  ...and I think I need to amend my polish wish list with all these gorgeous indies!

I miss blogger's drafts feature...why don't most journals have that?  It's saddening.  Anywho, here's a list of the posts that are in the works.

• C.O. Bigelow's Power Berry Mask recommendation + mourning the loss of the Laneige Strawberry Yogurt Peeling Gel
• First day/week of classes + scholarship applications + assignments
• Wedding Outfit

Well, I think I need to sleep--been up since 6 this morning and in class since 8:30--I'm beat!
