Bright & Funky Abstract Stripes (2000s Inspired)

*contains PR/gifted items

Hello loves & happy Monday!

I am still over here desperately craving Spring weather — while the actually weather does not cooperate. You would think I would be used to it by now (after all these years), & yet every year I get enraged when Spring doesn’t come quick enough. But… I digress. You’re here for nails, & I absolutely love today’s design!

I’m calling these Pucci-esque–not to be confused with Color Club Pucci-licious–& they’re giving me mid-2000s vibes. Specifically: Emilio Pucci’s Spring 2005 collection. I wanted something absolutely bright & colourful, that just screamed Spring, & this combination delivered.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Sally Hansen Maximum Growth
  • Top Coat: Seche Vive Gel Like Top Coat
  • Butter London Pure Colour 21X Bloomsbury
  • Essie You Do Blue
  • Sally Hansen Good. Kind. Pure. Peony Origins
  • Essie Willow in the Wind
  • OPI I Cannoli Wear OPI
  • Quo by Orly Nail Art Striper in black
  • NailStuff.ca Mermaid Tail 7mm Liner Brush

Okay — how gorgeous & fun are these nails? I love the combination of colours & how they pop on the nails. They’re just so sunny, & bright which is exactly what my days need when it’s quite a bit below freezing today. I need a little hit of Spring, even if it’s only on my nails (while I stare wistfully at the Spring dresses hanging in my closet, just waiting for me.)

What do you think of these bright & colourful nails? Do you love the colourful combination as much as I do? Let me know all your thoughts down in the comments below, & if you would rock this look on your own nails!

Happy Monday

Pretty Spring Floral (with Butter London) 🌸

*contains PR/gifted items

Hello beauties & happy Wednesday!

We are back up & running, & I’m trying my best to keep my posting routine going.

I’m hoping today’s nail art look is going to encourage Mother Nature to get her stuff together. The calendar may say Spring, but the weather is screaming December. So maybe. simple floral look will encourage some warmer days — because I want to wear my Spring dresses again!

Today’s look uses my two new Butter London shade for Spring 2026 — Bloomsbury & Posh Petal.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Sally Hansen Maximum Growth
  • Top Coat: Seche Vive Gel Like Top Coat
  • Butter London Pure Colour 21X Bloomsbury
  • Butter London Pure Colour 21X Posh Petal
  • Acrylic Paint
  • Small Nail Art Brush

I love floral nails so much! These were done while I was away from my stash, so I used acrylic paint for my floral instead — because that’s what I had available. I also didn’t have my usual favourite nail art brush from NailStuff, but I think I this look really came together for a beautiful Spring look. I love love love Posh Petal as the sheer base for my flowers, & I think it works perfectly for this naked, but not really naked, effect.

What do you think of this floral look using my new Butter London Spring 2026 shades? Do you like this combination as much as I do?

Sadly, this was my last look I did before breaking two of my long nails, & needing to trim them all down to a much shorter length! I enjoyed having my nails super long, but it’s fun to start over & come up with some cute nail art looks for my baby nails.

Happy Wednesday!

Cute Candy Cane Nails (featuring Butter London Winter 2025 shades) ❄️

Contains PR

Hello lovelies & happy Monday! It’s a very, very snowy Monday here… & I won’t lie, it’s kind of nice. Giving me a few Christmas vibes, I won’t lie.

So naturally that means let’s share some more holiday inspired nails. & I couldn’t not use my two new Butter London shades I featured yesterday — with the help of another Butter London shades in my stash.

The polishes I used for this manicure are: 

  • Base Coat: Sally Hansen Miracle Cure
  • Top Coat: Essie Speed Setter
  • Butter London Frozen Loch *pr
  • Butter London Branwen’s Pearls *pr
  • Butter London Saucy Jack
  • NailStuff.ca 4mm Micro Detail Brush

I just love a dainty candy cane look, & this one turned out just how I imagined it in my head. The pearlescent finish of Branwen’s Pearls was the perfect base for my tiny little candy canes, & the blue base of Frozen Loch helped them pop on the nail!

I got so many compliments on these at work, which always makes me happy! It always makes my day when someone else notices — & loves — a design I’ve created.

So what do we think of these cutie candy cane nails? Do you think they’re fun & dainty? I’m really trying to come up with some fun holiday nail art looks — maybe even some I’ve never tried before — to end off this year with a bang, so please let me know what nail art designs you’d like to see!

Enjoy your Monday

🖤
