Stained Glass Colour Block Nails. 

 Good morning Lovelies! 

I’m feeling Fall colours hard. The other day I was organizing my Fall polishes and really wanted to wear them all! I decided that some kind of colour block mani would be the closest way I could do that! 

  
The polishes I used for this mani were:

  • Finger Paints Surreal Sunset
  • Finger Paints Queen for A Night
  • Sally Hansen Golden-I
  • Hard Candy Scam
  • QUO by ORLY Striper in Black
  • Seche Vite 

Oh man I love these colours so much. I’m just starting to build my Finger Paints stash and I never realized just how amazing their polishes are! I’m in love! 😍 I can’t wait to wear Surreal Sunset and Queen for a Night on their own. Just so pretty! I’m in love. 😍

My QUO by ORLY Striper is starting  to get kinda of goopy so my lines are a little messy. Never less, I love this combination of colours so much! 

 
Are there any Fall polishes you’re dying to buy? I have my eyes on those Gorgeous Essie Fall colours! And the everything from the China Glaze Fall collection! I’m going to do a post on my favourite Fall polishes soon!

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! 🍁🍂☕️

Pink gradient and leopard print. 

Are you ready for something a little fun?! 

I’ve been trying to practice my gradients lately so I decide to try a tri-coloured gradient. Using pinks. I’m a little pink obsessed lately. My blending turned out a little more harsh than I would have preferred but I really love the colour combo. I finished everything off with some leopard print.    

The colours I used for this manicure were: 

  • Essie Peach Daquiri 
  • China Glaze Feel the Breeze 
  • China Glaze Purple Panic 
  • Sally Hansen I 💗 Nail Art pen in Black. 
  • Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat 

 

What do you think? I’m really craving brights right now. It’s May and officially that much closer to Summer–so hopefully it starts feeling more like it soon! ☀️

Today’s mani inspired by  @25_sweetpea and  @martienails. The second I saw their girlie roses and polka dots it jumped right to the top of my to-do inspiration list! 

  

The polishes I used for today’s mani are:

  • Sally Hansen Big Teal (base colour)
  • China Glaze Feel the Breeze (base colour) 
  • ACO by Ardene Pink Parfait (roses) 
  • Sally Hansen Tickled Pink (roses) 
  • China Glaze Purple Panic (roses) 
  • China Glaze Be More Pacific (leaves)
  • Sally Hansen I 💗 Nail Art pen in green (leaves) 
  • Sally Hansen I 💗 Nail Art pen in white (polka dots) 
  • OPI I Snow You Love Me (round holo glitters)
