Holo Taco Holoween Collection
I really liked that Cristine leaned into Halloween this year with the Holoween collection. Don’t get me wrong - I have enjoyed the birthday shades, but October is when I feel like I put forth my best nail ideas and this collection will definitely help that along. I was happy to buy another collection in a super carton since I am one of the folks running out of space to display my collectors boxes.
Holo Taco Holo Renaissance Collection
Who is excited for a collection of crushed holo polishes without shimmer? Me! I’ve enjoyed this formula since it debuted way back with Highest Bidder, so you bet I bought this collection.
Holo Taco Camping Collection
Holo Taco’s fall nail polish drop made me giggle since the collection theme is camping and Cristine swears most of the brand’s fans hate nature. There was no collection box, but the polishes were interesting.
Holo Taco Bon Voyage Collection
For Holo Taco’s 6th anniversary, Cristine put together the Bon Voyage collection complete with a fancy suitcase looking collector’s box. I liked the look of the bright polishes (and neat topper) included, so I bought it on launch day.
Star NOT A Halter Crop Top
In my continued quest to use up the mandala yarn that I acquired so much of in 2020 and 2021, I came across this Crochet Star Halter Crop Top Tutorial from Mrs Moon & Heaven on YouTube and thought it was super cute. The problem was that I wouldn’t be comfortable in a halter top that tied like this - I wanted more coverage. So what did I do? I decided to figure out how to smoosh two of these star panels into some kind of tank top that I would actually wear. It took me a few weeks, but I did it!
The Woodstock Top
I recently decided it was time to use the mandala yarn I bought a bunch of in 2021, so I chopped it up into individual colors and went on the hunt for suitable patterns. I came across the Woodstock Crop Top pattern by Jane Green of Beautiful Crochet Stuff on Hobbii’s website. It looked like a cute pattern for my stashbusting goal (and it was free!), so it quickly became my fifth project in Operation Crochet Warm Weather Stuff.
