Leafy Tone-on-Tone

Hi lovelies!

As spring was trying very hard to break through the autumness, I tried to egg it on with some springy nails:

Blue Marble Stamping


Hello lovelies,

Happy Sunday! I did this mani ages ago, but never got around to posting it. It was when those marble design stamping plates were popping up everywhere last year. Such a fun way to create a marble design! I decided to use a more unusual colour for this marble and grabbed my new dark blue OPI "My car has Navy-gation" and took out my new stamping plate by Nicole Diary: Marble Artist Stamp Stencil 076.

Accent nails with BP Spring Garden L003


Hi lovelies!

Today the weather was awfully dreary, so let's jump back a few days, to when I could take nail pics in sunlight! Now I don't always have a whole lot of time, so sometimes an accent nail will have to do. I got this new plate that is perfect for just that: BP Spring Garden L003.

On Wednesdays we wear Pink!


Hello lovelies!

I did a fun pink mani with one of my new plates from BornPrettyStore, BP-148. I tried doing something different and fashionable with it, while also being able to finally use my new bright magenta China Glaze nail polish that I found while on holiday in Sweden!

Sunset Gradient


Hello lovelies!

I felt like doing a three-toned holo gradient with sunset shades would impress someone I needed to impress, so I did one...

The Digit-al Dozen does Books - Text


Hi lovelies!

The Digit-al Dozen is inspired by books this month! I plan to do all five manis this time, but it's very late now, so I'm gonna keep it short. My first mani is inspired by something most books consist of: text.

Hi lovelies!

Another one of those associations you get when you hear 'tropical' is 'fruit', so here goes!

The Digit-al Dozen does Tropical! - Leafy Leaves


Hello lovelies!

Tropical also means green and leaves, so I created this abstract inverted leafy mani. It was also an excellent excuse to use my new polish from France, that I picked up during my holiday!

Ms. Sparkle "The Muppet Show" - PPU August


Hello lovelies!

I was on holiday, so this post is a bit late, but look at this fun creation by Ms. Sparkle for this month's Polish Pickup! The theme is 'Musicals' and Simone fashioned this quirky polish inspired by its namesake: 'The Muppet Show'.

The Digit-al Dozen presents: In My Garden - Feline Visitors


Hi lovelies!


So besides bricks and one pink geranium, not much is going on in my garden presently, but I do get the occasional feline visitor. That's why this manicure, which is basically a recreation of Amber's awesome Krazy for Kitties manicure, fits the theme perfectly!

The Digit-al Dozen presents: In My Garden - What My Garden Actually Looks Like


Hello lovelies!

Yesterday I showed one of my dream gardens and today I present my actual garden. My actual garden is nothing but clinker bricks. However, one of my good friends gave me a geranium plant when I had just signed the lease, as an early housewarming present. It was the first thing of mine to be in the new house and later in the garden. It is still there! Therefore I dedicate this manicure to the geranium that pinks up my grey garden:

Inspired by another dress!


Hello lovelies!

Remember that mani that was inspired by my dress? I have another one of those dresses (couldn't choose), so I did a mani for that one as well!



This is the dress in question:
store

I used BPS dark green holo polish and this greenish stamping polish to paint the flowers with this super handy detail brush:


I sealed it in with fast-drying top coat and then applied matte top coat on my ring finger and pinky:


What do you think? Do you like the colour combo? I must say, if it wasn't for the dress, I would've never thought of it.

Purple galaxy hearts

Hello lovelies!
 
For those who follow me on IG, you may have already seen this manicure ages ago... I forgot to post it on the blog, so I figured I'd do that now. On Instagram a group of nailistas came together to celebrate fellow insta nailista Caroline Goodwill's birthday by means of posting purple manicures. It was around Vday, so mine had hearts...
