Leopard Print !


February 25th, 2014

Had a little disaster with my nails last week, & had to file them all down, gosh I hate them so short but itll have to do till they grow out.
Buuuuut .....
I absolutely love this design! It was my first time at doing a leopard print and I think I did really well.
I didn't want to do a full nail so I saw this design where its off the the side and was in love!
I adore these colors so much as well they went great together! Hope you enjoy!

DIY Nail Decals!

September 20th, 2013 

An older design of mine, as you may know my blog is fairly new so I have quite a few pictures to go through!
I had done this by getting a ziploc freezer baggy and made squares of black nail polish on top. I let it dry for about 3-4 hours and peeled it off with tweezers. This allows you to cut out any design you'd like and stick it on your nail. Its sticker for your nails! 
Expect their called nail decals :)
Hope you like it!

Chevron Nails

 Chevron Nails !
These were done on September 06th, 2013.
This was around the time when I actually started to do what I considered to be nail art. I got my inspiration from the picture below, I didn't not have the exact same chevron tape so I just took some scotch and made my own.

Polishes used ; 
Sally Hansen - Quick Sand

Ying Yang Nails

February 20th, 2014

Ying Yang Nails!
For this design the challenge was to try your non-dominant hand skills so.. the hand shown is my dominant hand done with my non- dominant hand . I think I did alot better than I had originally anticipated to, with such a shaky hand anything can go wrong but overall very satisfied with the outcome. Alsooo .. The dark purple is a stardust finish but I love how it looks so glossy in the bottle so I just had to put a top coat on!

Polish's used ;
Julep - Glam Roc
Julep - Bunny

Newspaper Nails!

February 18th, 2014

For this design I was inspired by lovevarnish.com.
It was for the Weekly Challenge of the Nail Polish Queens Community on G+ 
I knew i didnt want every nail with the newspaper design & i couldn't decide on what to do..
So I went on Google images and was instantly inspired by this design & had to replicate it.
But first off newspaper nails are sorta hard I learned a few things along the way but still couldn't get it to come out properly.. My main problem is the text, its so light & faded I feel it it were darker it would of made this Mani a whole lot better.

Luxe Effect Gradient Nail's



December 31st, 2014

Luxe Effect & Gradient Nails
For this design as you may see I used the essie luxe effect set. I could of did a light coat of 'set in stones' on all my nails or used it on my ring finger creating the accent nail, but I decided to try doing a gradient instead, I think it turned out lovely, let me know what you think!

Polished Used;
Essie - Go Overboard & Essie - Set in Stones
