HARE Polish The Teen Queen

Hi readers! I'm going to give you a disclaimer right now that this post is going to be picture-heavy. I have HARE Polish The Teen Queen gracing my nails today and I am sort of obsessed with this mani in the strangest possible way.

Emily de Molly Harmony

Hi readers! Today I have Emily de Molly Harmony to share with you all. I thought it was an appropriate time to share this polish, given that Emily de Molly is discontinuing quite a few of her polishes! Luckily, Harmony isn't one of them, but there's plenty of other pretties that will soon be gone forever! /sad face

Emerald & Ash Cuddle-butt

So, anyone who knows me knows that I love my dogs.

But for real, my pups are my babies. I have two - a sweet Pomeranian boy named Moose and a fiesty Shiba Inu girl named Layla. They are like my kids and I love them to bits!

So when I found out that Emerald & Ash was releasing two polishes in honor of her own puppies, I knew I HAD to snatch them up! I mean, come on - inspiration from doggies? They're polishes after my own heart! I love them both but I decided on this one, because crellies are one my weaknesses - meet Emerald & Ash Cuddle-butt!

Pahlish Anticipating and Pacing

Hello readers! HAPPY FRIDAY! I know I'm excited for today - I have the weekend off and I'm going to visit my mama!

I also have a beautiful polish adorning my fingers, so that adds to my excitement! Today, I'm sharing Pahlish Anticipating and Pacing.

Hare Polish Rococo Grandeur

Hi readers! Today I have a fun polish to share with you - Hare Polish Rococo Grandeur!

Lucky 13 Lacquer Pumpkin King

Holiday-theme polishes. We all have them, right? I feel like all polish brands, mainstream and indie alike, do collections for every holiday. And how can you not love the festiveness?! But alas, what do you do with said polishes when the holidays are over? Must you wait a whole year to paint your nails with festive pretties?! The answer is NO! We CAN incorporate holiday-themed polishes into everyday, non-holiday manicures!

And today, I have Lucky 13 Lacquer Pumpkin King to do just that with. Pumpkin King? But... it's May! PUMPKINS? Damn right, we're doing pumpkins.

Jade Holographic Vermelho Surreal

Readers, I have a confession to make. Today's polish is not an indie. I know, I know - "indie"-an summer! All indies all the time! Yeah yeah yeah... BUT, I have had a rough few days and I feel very on the verge of quitting my job, so sometimes you have to put the glitter aside and bring out some rainbows. And rainbows are exactly what we are getting into today! This is Jade Holographic Vermelho Surreal, a brand from Brazil. And although it isn't an indie, I did buy it from Llarowe... so that must count for something, right?

Nail Pattern Boldness Boop-Oop-a-Dupe

I think it's safe to say that most nail polish lovers know about the elusive Clarins 230 polish, aka "Unicorn Pee." It's pretty much one of the most ridiculously awesome polishes in the world. It's also ridiculously expensive and very hard to find. You probably also know about one of the famed dupes for Clarins 230 - Max Factor Fantasy Fire! Equally gorgeous and also rather difficult to find, especially if you're in the United States!

But there is hope, my friends. Even more dupes are out there. Accessible dupes. Indie dupes. And so I present to you: Nail Pattern Boldness Boop-Oop-a-Dupe.

Lyn B Designs Shrieking Violet

Hello readers! I have an indie to share today that totally exceeded my expectations in awesomeness. This is Lyn B Designs Shrieking Violet.

Rainbow Honey Koi Pond

Hello! I have another one of my first indies to share today that I still totally love - Rainbow Honey Koi Pond!

Candeo Colors Zef

Hello all! I have one of my favorite glitter topper indies to share today... Candeo Colors Zef!

I have a bit of a problem with perusing through the sale pages on Llarowe. Zef happened to be on the sale pages one day, and the first thing I said was HOW. Zef is a clear suspension base with a mix of black, pink, and blue microglitter, black and blue hexes, and pink square glitter - allllllll matte. swooooon

Neener Neener Nails Electric Rainbow

Hi readers! :) Yesterday, I featured a polish with a rather subtle rainbow... today, we are going all out. Meet Neener Neener Nails Electric Rainbow.

Model City You Blue Me Away

Hello, hello!

First and foremost, I want to extend a HUGE thank you to the lovely ladies over at redditpolish for being amazingly supportive and following my blog adventures through "INDIE"-AN SUMMER! You ladies are wonderful! :)

I think it is very appropriate that today I have an indie to share which I actually found out about via Reddit! It's Model City You Blue Me Away. Model City was the first indie brand I ever purchased, so it holds a special place in my little polish lovin' heart!

Sonnetarium Strawberry Smoothie

Hello! I am slightly obsessed with fruit-themed nail polish, so what the hell was expected of me when Sonnetarium released the fruitiest collection of polishes ever for their Spring 2013 line? I was picking up Cucumber Salad from the same collection for a good friend of mine's birthday when I caved and had to grab a mini of Sonnetarium Strawberry Smoothie.

Jindie Nails Princess Breath

Since it has taken me so long to start this blog up again, I shall begin with a polish that I have waited SO long to get my little fingers on: Jindie Nails Princess Breath.

"INDIE"-AN SUMMER BEGINS!

Hello, little corner of the nail polish blog world! I have disappeared for quite some time... school and work all caught up with me too quickly, so I have clearly not been so active.

But school has ended! Summer is upon us! Somehow, I've become a senior in college... sooo that's a little scary. BUT ALAS! I am back for now, at least until my final year of undergraduateness commences.

I've cleared out all the clutter of my past blog posts to make room for the new Late Night Lacquer. And if I'm only going to be around for the summer, I'm going to do it right... "INDIE"-AN SUMMER!

Okay, I know that an INDIAN summer wouldn't happen until it is nearly fall... but come on now. WE NEEDED A GOOD PLAY ON WORDS HERE. INDIE-AN. That's right. All indies, all the time, folks!

I'll have another post for my first featured polish so you aren't forced into reading a wall of text. HERE GOES!
