I created this tumblr because I always end up browsing for hours before I do a new manicure, and I wanted the world's best nail art available in one place. I'm not into the average art you can get at any corner nail salon, I like the new, crazy, interesting nail art. It's the 21st century, your nails shouldn't look like the 90s!
Most of the nails posted are not mine. All nails have links back to their original sources.
If you're new to tumblr, you should know that the "fuck yeah" in this blog's title is not meant to offend--fuck yeah blogs are a tumblr phenomenon intended to indicate that the blog is solely dedicated to that single subject.

MANICURE MUSE: Peter Som Resort ‘13
For those of you who fancy lace, you’ll love Peter Som’s Resort ‘13 collection. For me, it’s always been a tricky fabric to wrap my head around. Somehow I gravitate towards the bold and graphic, and steer clear of vintage frill. With that said, Peter Som has made me a believer. The collection as a whole is a wanderlust trip to Morocco, described by Som as “nomad-chic.” The shades of blue in Moroccan-inspired prints are a trip themselves, but it’s how he translates them into his signature tailoring that keeps the collection grounded and new. Demure Chantilly lace makes a breathtaking statement because of it’s fine craftsmanship, but its the bold-colored lace that makes the Ladyfinger statement.
To emulate this look, I used Trout Pout by Butter London, Baby Blue Color Club Nail Art Duo, and a black Sally Hansen nail art pen.
To get these ladyfingers:
1. Start with a full light pink nail
2. With a light blue nail art pen or brush, draw an “X” in squiggles and loops
3. Using your black nail art pen, draw squiggles and loops in a triangle shape with the point facing towards the center
4. Repeat on the other side
5. Top it off with top coat

Nail the B.Y.T.C.H. - Cup My Cakes
I came across this DOPE nail polish brand through Twitter and as soon as I saw the name, I had to cop a few bottles. Nail the B.Y.T.C.H. is an acronym for Be Your True Creative Heroine. (such a sick name for any nail artist!!) I’ve been looking for the perfect pinky-peach-coral polish to rock this summer with a fresh tan and this is it, absolutely loving this colour. Application was smooth and very opaque after only 2 coats, I used 3 coats here and added some chains & bling. Click the pic to check them out, they have 10 colours right now and they’re only $6 each.
