For today’s fashion prompt, I took a look at NYFW 2014’s runways. To me, I think it’s pretty easy to get inspired by runway trends. The colors, the structure, the composition… they all play so well together to give you that great floral or textured print or amazing color combination. For this mani, I was […]
I had these done yesterday but I was too tired to even try and transfer them onto the computer. I love this prompt because I’m a bookworm at heart. I’ll happily read sci-fi, romance, contemporary, self-helps and the classics. I mean, I read Crime and Punishment for fun. So as much of a bibliophile that I […]
For the movie inspiration, I went with the latest movie adaptation of F. Scott Fitgerald’s The Great Gatsby. That book/movie is all about the glitz, glamour and disillusionment of the 1920s. And of course, all I can think of is how great art deco looks in black and gold. Colors used: Essie Licorice and OPI Love. […]
This prompt worked out perfectly for me. A while back, Emily of Very Emily, posted this mani using some of my new Cut It Out Nail Vinyls and I wanted to recreate this myself. Lucky for me, it also happens to fit into a song too! So today’s mani is inspired by Emily and Kid […]
Fall is a day away, but here in Southern California, we’re still sweating it in the 90s-100s. I mean seriously, seriously? It’s so hot, I die. I miss wearing pants or a light sweater and feel comfortable. I’m hoping this fall mani will get California weather in check, because it’s getting pretty ridiculous. Water marbles […]
For geometric nails, I wanted to do something easy, so I thought how about some simple shapes to form a mosaic? Easy, right? Wrong. Guess who was sorely mistaken and spent over an hour doing her nails painstakingly painting triangles? This girl… Colors used: Essie Blanc and China Glaze Neon & On, For Audrey and […]
It’s day 15 and I’m halfway there! For today’s delicate prompt, I wanted to use Indi-Glo because it’s all reformulated and I hopefully (knock on wood) never have to go through that whole ordeal ever again! So what’s blue and delicate? Porcelain! Colors used: Serum No. 5 Indi-Glo, Essie Blanc and OPI Keeping Suzi at […]
I have a weakness for floral nails. I love them. They’re so pretty and intricate and I wish I could do them. Haha! For today’s mani, I went for a bright pop of flowers over a black background. Colors used: Essie Blanc and Licorice and Serum No. 5 Krypton-Brite, Atomic Peach, Orange You Sunny, Awesome […]
It’s animal day and I decided to go with snakes! For this prompt, I decided to recreate a previous mani that I did and absolutely loved: a neutral purple-toned snakeskin. I did have to sacrifice the nails though, my stamp plate that I had in mind was too small for my current length. Can we […]
I think my favorite designs are the ones that looks simple. Rather than do a full striped mani, I wanted to do something a little more modern and different. Colors used: Essie Blanc, China Glaze Highlight of My Summer and Too Yacht to Handle and Essie In the Cab-ana. First paint your nails white, then […]
