Happy New Year, fellow nail polish enthusiasts!!

Hard to believe that we've moseyed on into 2015, eh? I hope that 2015 slows down a bit because it feels like 2014 went by in a flash. Also? I'm REALLY SORRY about not posting a nail files last week. I woke up on Boxing Day and was all: I feel like I forgot to do something...HOLYFACENUTS I FORGOT TO POST THE NAIL FILES.

Seeing as I had no reserve manis to share, and I was slightly hungover from all the wine turkey, by the time I remembered that I forgot (ha), it was way too late. Again, I'm so sorry about the flake. If you had a post from last week, please link up both this week!!

And speaking of this week, figured that I'd do a little round-up of my favourite manis from 2014, but they're in no particular order, because it was hard enough picking from 52 + manis in the first place. It blows my mind when I see how much better I've gotten at nail art (and at taking pictures of my nails). When I was scrolling through the pics from this year, I kind of impressed myself, which is totally weird and slightly narcissistic, but it happened and I'm owing it. Haha! 

So now, on with the nails!

*bangs gong*
