Hey there!
As the title of the blog has undoubtedly given away, you will not be surprised to find out that I am Nakaya. Currently 23 years of age, art school graduate and nail polish enthusiast.
When I'm not polishing my nails, you'll find me with my nose in a book (usually science-fiction or a Sherlock Holmes pastiche), in front of the TV, drawing or in the gym.
(Also, I am a Dutch girl, so feel free to leave comments in Dutch if you prefer.)
It was at some point in high school where my interest in nail polish grew beyond simply slapping a colour on and went more to the nail art side of things and a few years later I started to amass the bulk of my polish collection like a girl possessed.
I've been putting my nail art online since October 2010 (on deviantART), and had a Tumblr for them since December that same year, but I felt neither was quite the right platform for me to truly write about this passion of mine, and I think I have found that here in the format that Blogger offers.
Nowadays the rabid collecting has slowed down and instead I focus more on trying to create beautiful things with what I already have. I have no space left to put more cases stuffed with polish bottles, so I try to stay away from buying unless it's really something unlike what I own already.

That would be yours truly in a shopping cart. Art school was a strange place. |

My collection, as of late 2014. |
Outside of the wonderful world of nail polish and the few interests I've mentioned above, I enjoy naming cats after fictional characters.
