I'm starting a new challenge this month- Oh Mon Dieu (part deux)! It's been a while since I've participated in a month-long challenge. I'm excited for the fun prompts and the cool nails that result from it! For those of you who have been tracking my blog's progress from the beginning (I like to imagine these people exist ;), you'll know that my one year blogiversary is this month. I have fun things planned for that, which will take up about half the month. So I won't be able to complete the entire challenge, but I'll join in when I can!

33 Day Challenge Day 24: Art With the Color You Own the Most Of
The color I own the most of is.. purple? Really? I mean, I do like purple. I just didn't expect to have so much of it. It's certainly not my favorite color. I don't even own any purple clothing except one solitary "Poison" tshirt. Pretty sure the deciding factor for buying the shirt was that I needed at least one item in that color. So, Yay! for this prompt for getting me utilize the greatest percentage of my stash.
To solved the mystery of How I Acquired So Many Purple Polishes, I took a look at them. Out of the 40 plus purple polishes, 36 of them have been acquired since I since I started my blog. That is, I bought 36 purple polishes in the last four months.
Funny story- a similar thing happened to me a few years ago with my wardrobe. I don't know where it came from, but one day I realized I didn't own any brown clothing or shoes. I had ALOT of black. I decided I needed to branch out. I didn't go crazy or anything, but for a while I only bought brown, and ended up with a good amount.
So this is clearly what happened with my polishes. I looked at my stash, realized it was seriously lacking in shades of purple, and then this time went a little nuts. I wish I could say I don't need any more, but that wouldn't be the truth.
This was my first attempt at a fishtail braid and it ended up a little lopsided. I still like it, it's such a cool look! I love that there are still so many techniques for me to try out. And even with the ones I've tried, there's a lot of perfecting to do!
I hope there are some little girls (older ones too) that will just LOVE this mani. Sometimes it's fun to get extra girly!
