It's hard to believe this year is nearly over. I started my nail adventure in March of this year and it has been amazing so far!
When I was going back and looking at some of the first manis I did in 2014, I laughed. Not because they were necessarily
bad, but I have come so far this year when it comes to my manis, picture taking, editing, etc. I narrowed my favorites down to 16, and they're in no particular order.

Well there you have it, my favorite manis from 2014. This year has been nail-good to me. I started my blog, I've met a lot of amazing ladies, I've found a passion for something that I'm really excited about. In 2015 I hope to grow my audience for my blog, meet some more amazing bloggers, and work on my freehand nail art.
Do you have any nail goals for 2015?
