Dagadelic's Birthday Giveaway 2014

It's my birthday today friends! I'm officially 23. 

I've been hinting over the last couple weeks that I would have something special to
share and today is finally the today I get to share what I've been plotting! No more hinting, just facts. 

Maybelline - Blushing Nude

Hey all! Quick post today.

Here's what I wore all weekend.

Maybelline - Blushing Nude

Brain Algae

Hey all!

First off before I get into the nails I just have to share a super cool documentary I watched.

The Red Queen - A Mayan Mystery

Part 1 // Part 2

If you love a great story and have a deep fascination with ancient cultures like I do then this is a must watch.
It's pretty fucking cool to learn about some bad ass Mayan ladies.

Now my nails!

Lime Lines

Is there a colour that you tend to stay away from when choosing polish?

I usually have to be more careful when I choose greens. It just doesn't always work with my skin tone.

But! I have discovered that green tends to look much better on me when I have a tan.

Neon Rain

Down on the West Coast...

we've been having a heat wave.

And, literally, if you're not drinking then you're not playing.

I've been guzzling down water like nobodies business.

I've had the side effects of heat stroke before and let's just say it ain't fun.

I've been craving a stampacure and when I saw the little rain droplets 

on my MoYou London plate I just knew I had to use them.

The Great Polish Giveaway of 2014

Feeling a bit down today friends?

Would winning 200 polishes help cheer you up?

Well let me tell you about a mind blowing giveaway that Nail Polish Canada is hosting.

Sour Iris

 After seeing this water marble manicure by In Jeeb We Trust I was inspired to dip
my feet back into the colourful waters of water marbling.
Took me a longgggg time since it's been so hot here in Vancouver but I was quite happy with the results.

Pineapple Party

 I've been loving all the fruit inspired manicures I've been seeing floating throughout 

FB and IG lately. I fell in love with this tutorial by just1nail and I decided to give it a go.

Oranges, Lemons, and Coconuts

As soon as summer comes around all I can think about is lying on a beach some where.
I plan grand getaways in my head and think about all the possibilities.
I picture myself lounging on a chaise looking out at a crystal blue ocean and
feeling my body soak in the sun. And of course, I'd have a big old cocktail.

Dorothy Does Canada Day

Happy Fourth of July American friends!

Hope you're having beautiful weather where ever you are so you can go out and celebrate.

And you know, if it's not so nice, just stay inside and watch Independence Day.

Over-rated? Perhaps. But I love it. Just try this: 

take a shot (drink responsibly kids) every time someone does something patriotic or every time
you see an American flag. Even if you can't spot anything at first just wait until the President's speech.
You might need to be double fisting at that point.
Oh, and take one for me when the alien has his monologue. That's my favourite part.

Now onto the mani!

In the spirit of patriotism let me show you what I wore for Canada day a few days ago.
