NOTD: Cheerful, Rainbow nails (wedding anniversary edition)


I am into a full blown nail art mania! I have been painting my nails so often and trying so many nail art designs that keep popping into my head (and catching my eye on Pinterest) that I need more hands to catch up! See my 7 in 1 nail art post.

Colorful confetti nails!

Today is my wedding anniversary and instead of going for a romantic nail art (which I am sure the hubster wouldn’t notice until I throw it in his face), I decided to do how my heart is feeling at the moment – cheerful! And what better way to express this happiness than colorful nails!
I am slowly building up a nail polish collection (since last year) and I thought of using as many colors as I could (except black since I couldn’t find it). I did my nails last night and had no idea what I would be wearing so this “Nail Art” was a safe bet. I have stopped buying clothes (since late November) since I want to try out more Korean makeup and beauty products so I will have to choose something that I already have but haven’t worn a lot (and there are a few)!
So anyway, the nail art is pretty simple.
