Bestie Twin Nails with @jazzynailedit

Good morning loves! I had the opportunity to do another Bestie Twin Nails manicure with one of my very talented fellow nail artists @jazzynailedit! We created a floral based on a manicure originally done by @justagirlandhernails, just gave it a Fall spin! 

  
Aren’t Jasmine’s flowers amazing?! You should definitely check out here page if your on Instagram! Her nails are always impeccable! 

 
For my version of this manicure, the polishes I used were:

  • ACO by Ardene Day Dreamer 
  • OPI Just BeClaus 
  • China Glaze High Hopes 
  • Sally Hansen Mellow Yellow 
  • Seche Vite

I created all my little flowers using a small dotting tool which was surprisingly easier than I thought it was going to be! 

   


What do you think of this Fall mani?  I’ve been trying to come up with new seasonal manicure inspiration! I’m just really excited to start Halloween manicures! 

Have a great day loves!

Floral nails Inspired by @just1nail and @wonderouslypolished

I just love floral. It’s kind of verging on obsession. 

 I saw this manicure on Instagram by @just1nail (who was originally inspired by @wonderouslypolished) and thought it would be the perfect floral for Fall. So naturally that meant that it needed to be recreated! 
  
The polishes I used for this mani were:

  • OPI Just Be-Claus
  • OPI I Canolli Wear OPI 
  • Essie After School Boy Blazer
  • Essie Where’s My Chauffeur!
  • Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Mellow Yellow (original formula)
  • Quo by ORLY Striper in White. 
  • Seche Vite

I went with a darker blue (Essie After School Boy Blazer) for a more Fall toned manicure…. and I love them! Also I have rarely been wearing red polish lately and now that fall is here that is definitely about to change! This was my first time wearing Just Be-Claus since I picked it up, and it’s such a pretty berry red! 

 
Let me know what you think of this mani in the comments below, and I hope you have a fabulous Monday!

Inspired by! My notebook. 

 As the saying goes, inspiration is everywhere. Today’s nails were inspired by the inside cover of one of my many notebooks. I was tidying the other day when I stumbled across it–the second I opened it up the first thing I thought was “I have to recreate that on my nails!” 

  

The polishes I used for this manicure were: 

  • Essie All Access Pass
  • OPI Angel With a Lead Foot
  • Essie Parka Perfect
  • China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint
  • QUO by ORLY Striper in White 
  • Seche Vite 

  

 I love love love how my accent nails turned out! I almost wish I had done all 10 nails with the chevron pattern! This mani just makes me so happy! I love how well the colours go together. 
 

What do you think about this mani? Where do you usually find your nail art inspiration? Let me know in the comments below! 💕

Something Blue floral inspired by @25_sweetpea 

So you might have noticed an abundance of floral recently, even though Fall is quickly approaching. Well that’s because I’ve been on the search for the perfect bridal manicure. That’s right… I’m getting married! A week from today! 

   

I’ve bfinally figured out what I’m doing on my nails (with a week to go). I’ve been searching for the perfect floral mani to wear day of, and thanks to my girl @26_sweetpea I found it! She posted this beautiful mani last week, and as soon as I saw it I knew! 

 
 The other night I did a wedding mani test run using Essie Bikini So Teeny and China Glaze Secret Peri-wink-le , which are my two all time favourite blues. I was having trouble deciding which one I wanted to wear.  I’ve figured it out now (and you’ll have to wait to see what I go with!) but I wanted to share the close up of this mani. 

Polishes I used for my right hand were: 

  • Essie Bikini So Teeny
  • Sinful Colors Easy Going
  • QUO by ORLY Striper in White
  • Sally Hansen Mauve Over
  • ACO by Ardene Mermaid 
  • OPI Mod About You 
  • Essie Jiggle Hi, Jiggle Lo 
  • Sally Hansen I Love Nail Art pen in green. 
  • Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in Kiwi Bikini 
  •  OPI You’re So Outta Lime! 
  • Seche Vite 

  
So what do toy think of this floral design? What would you dream wedding manicure look like? 💐

Also is anyone else as excited about the pumpkin spice latte returning as I am?! 🎃 it’s that time of year again and I LOVE it! ☕️

Inspired by Flip Flops! 

  
 When it comes nail art, I find inspiration can be everywhere. Today’s mani was inspired by a pair of flip flops at work. When we first got them in way back in March all I could think was NAIL ART! Took me until the end of August but I did it! 
  
The polishes I used for this mani were: 

  • Color Club Silver Lake
  • Yves Saint Laurent Noir Primitif
  • Finger Paints unnamed mini (from the Halifax nail blogger meet up)
  • ACO by Ardene Sunkissed (floral details)
  • Essie Bikini So Teeny (floral details) 
  • Sally Hansen I Love Nail Art pen in Green. 
  • Crystals from Icing stores. 
  • Seche Vite 

 So what do you think of my mani? My company is having a “most stylish employee” contest right now so I used this for my first entry. I’m probably going to do a few entries like that just for fun! 
Happy First Day of September everyone! 🍁🍂☕️
