Me and My Sheers

Hi dear reader!

I don't like sheers. I pretty much hate them. I hate it when you see my tips through the polish and the fact I must take out another polish that matches the colour so I can wear it. Sorry for ranting.

Recently I placed an order at Transdesign. I just popped a few polishes in the cart - didn't bother to look at swatches of them because I love it all and had to fill some space. The package arrived, in a happy mood I unpacked the package and took off the wrapping paper and there it was: HORROR! I seriously ordered three sheers. THREE.

Michelle, Michelle, what were you thinking?! Not looking at swatches before ordering, you crazy?! Anyway I tried them and these are the results:



OPI - Maliblue, three coats. This light toned green reminds me of a cucumber. I guess I'd be totally in love with this shade if it wasn't so sheer! I definitly need a good layering polish for this one.



Orly - Sky Blue-Pink, four coats. It's a very sheer blue with flashes of red. I didn't see no pink it in, only red.



OPI - Sea Ya Later, Sailor!, three coats. It a pretty blue for sure!

What have I learned? I need to see swatches before randomly selecting my polishes. If any of you got good tips for layering polishes please let me know, it's a shame not wearing these pretties.

Sweet dreams for later!

Lady Gaga Inspired Nails

Hi dear reader!
I got something fun for you today! You all remember the Gaga Nails in Pokerface, right? The black polished, heavily studded pretties? Here's what they looked like:



I created this today! It's been in my mind creating nail art inspired by Gaga for a while now because she wears the most prettiest nail art in her videos. I received my rhinestones yesterday from DNA and today is my free day, so I had something to do. :)



I used:
- CG Liquid Leather as my base colour
- Essence dotter for placing my rhinestones
- Ruby Red and Crystal rhinestones
- Essence topcoat as my replacement for glue ;)
- David topcoat to make it all shiny!

Here's how it turned out:







Okay, it's kind of... Blingy? Definitly fun to wear at a party but I'd never wear it on a normal day. I had the most CRAZY experience with David, he made my polish all bubbly! :(

Who or what is your inspiration for creating nail art?

Thanks for visiting!

NOTD: Bella's Choice

Hi dear reader!
How are you doing? Looking forward to the weekend? My weekend starts tomorrow and I'm celebrating with a date! I'm seeing Daph and Michèle tomorrow, we're going for a nailpolish hunt. Very exciting! :)

I'm showing you H&M's Bella's Choice today, an amazing colour that Michèle and Romika brought me. It's soooo pretty! I'm totally in love with it. :) In case you're wondering: this shade is a little bit darker than CG's For Audrey.

Thanks for stopping by!

Glamour Mani

Hi dear reader!
I'm busy so here's a mani I created for a contest. The theme is glamour and even though it could be more glamourous, I still like it. :)



I used American Apparel - Passport Blue as my base colour and frenched it with China Glaze - Millenium. The rhinestones are from the Essence Nail Jewels.

Where do you think of when you hear the word glamour?
Thanks for visiting!
