Confession Time: I'm a HUGE Britney Spears fan! I love her! So, last week when her new album, Femme Fatale, came out I just HAD to do a Britney inspired manicure! So, I tweeted Zoya and asked them what color I should wear to celebrate Femme Fatale, and they suggested Zoya Freja. Lucky for me, I already had this color in my collection! Freja is a dark shimmery gray.
I stamped the lace print from Konad M57 plate using Sally Hansen Silver Sweep and then stamped the black flowers from M57 on top. It feels very hard core and FIERCE to me. Just like Britney!
Have you heard Femme Fatale yet? What are you favorite songs? I'm really digging How I Roll and He About to Lose Me. *swoon*

Spa Night at Moondancerjen's House!
This past weekend I invited over some of my fav gal pals for a spa party! After my friends found out about my new konad obsession, they were all eager to try, so that was the main focus of the party! In case you are thinking about hosting a spa party of your own, here is how we set it up:
Pedicure Room. We set up two foot baths across from the bathroom for easy water access, then laid out some magazines and foot spa goodies I got from Sally's.
Across the hall in the bathroom, we set up a paraffin wax warmer, plus hand scrubs, face masks, and lotions. While at Sally's I picked up Gigi's pomegranate grapefruit wax for the paraffin warmer and it smelled divine! Everyone loved doing the hand wax part. It makes your hands sooooo soft afterwards!
This is what I lovingly refer to as the nail bar. I put my whole stash up there with the konad plates so everyone could pick their polish and design and then bring it to the table to play with.
Here's the table. I put the tools on here that everyone would need, like base coats, stamping polishes, all the stampers and files, cotton balls, etc...
Here is a detail shot of the goodies all separated out into their glass containers.
Now, onto some of the gorgeous konadicures that came out of the party:
This is mine. I used Zoya Dove as a base, stamped the zebra print from M57 using konad special polish and then topped it with Chine Glaze Fairy Dust (love this sparkle)
On my friend Lisa she picked Zoya Perrie with a design from one of my fauxnad plates in Konad special white polish.
My friend Cindy used my new Charcoal color from Forever 21. LOVE the black and sparkles! She stamped a simple silver rose with Sally Hansen Silver Sweep on her middle fingers and then added a simple little red rhinestone.
My friend Krystal LOVES stars and pink, so this manicure did not surprise me a bit, but I think it is so cute! She brought her own China Glaze color for the base. I didn't catch the name of it. Then stamped the stars using konad special white and then placed a rhinestone on each nail.
I helped my friend Jamie out on this one, and I definitely think I was channeling JWOWW from the Jersey Shore with these black tips! Black tips were Zoya Raven. Glitter top coat was China Glaze Fairy Dust and Claire's Glow in the Dark polish I got from LTHP's giveaway.
There were many more nails where those came from, but my pictures didn't come out so great on them. All in all it was SO MUCH FUN sharing something I love so much with all my friends! They all loved it too! I think we are definitely going to have to have spa night more often! Have you guys ever hosted a spa night?

Oh Caitlin, why you so pretty?
Working my way through the Zoya Intimate Collection one bottle at a time! Here is Zoya's Caitlin in her grey-blue-purple glory! I stamped the lace print with Konad white from Konad plate M57. I used this same design on my first Hello Kitty design. I love how versatile this plate is. Let me know what you think!

Fierce Cheetah!
This is so hot! I was so bummed when it chipped the day after I painted this. Damn dishes! I used Zoya Austine as my base color for this one. BTW, Zoya Austine is a great subtle gold color to stamp with if you are looking for one! The cheetah stamp is from M57 and I used the special Konad black paint to stamp with.

Hello Kitty!
This was my first manicure using rhinestones! Aren't they adorable! I got the rhinestones off eBay and the adorable Hello Kitty stamp is from Born Pretty Store. The lace tip is from konad plate M57. The base color is O.P.I Princesses Rule. This is one of my favorite manicures so far!
