Favorite Things Party....Favorite Nail Polish Edition

Happy Monday Girls!
 
Today I am linking up with Andrea and Erika for their "Favorite Things Party", and today it is all about nail polish....be sure to grab the graphic and link up too!
 


and here are the rest of them for the year!!
 
I was super excited when I saw this topic, I LOVE LOVE LOVE nail polish, you will never ever see me without polish on my nails, I am not sure why, I just feel totally naked without polished nails.  I have always had a "thing" for nails.  Back in high school, I had acrylic nails, super long, bright pink, lots of designs, then I went a bit more subtle and just got pink and white acrylics, then they went from super long to a more "active" length, and just a basic neutral polish.  Then a few years ago I jumped on the gel nail band wagon, and I did love it, they certainly did last longer than a normal manicure, but quite honestly I dreaded going to get them done.  I can do a pedicure all day everyday, but I have like zero patience getting my nails done anymore.  So last year, I soaked off the gel, and I have been doing my own nails ever since.  I use some great products, and I don't have to re-do them but once a week, and I have gotten pretty good at doing them myself.  Sometimes when I go get a pedicure, I will do a mani also!
 
I have two favorite brands of polish, I pretty much only ever use Essie or OPI...I just love them.  I tried Butter London a few times, but wasn't overly impressed for the price!
 
For the most part I really love a neutral nail, 90% of the time I am wearing just a very neutral color
 
Lately I am loving a little sparkle on my nail.  Here I am wearing Funny Bunny , by OPI, and Hors d'oeuvres by Essie....pretty much my favorite combo right now!
 
If I am not wearing a neutral color, I will usually wear a dark color, I LOVE Lincoln Park After Dark by OPI, and a month ago I found Smokin Hot by Essie...and I love it!
 
It isn't quite as deep as the OPI, but it is fabulous.  You can find it here .
 
These are pretty much my staples when it comes to nail polish. 
 
I always use this as a base coat...love it.
 
This fast dry top coat is the best I have ever used.  I put it on and in like 3 minutes my nails are completely dry.  I highly recommend this!!!
 
I am always on the hunt for a great nail polish, so I am super excited to read everyone's favorites today! 
 
Thanks for stopping by...have a great day!
