Fall themed tribal print. 

   
Fall is coming quickly. The mornings are definitely starting to feel cooler already and I’m starting to reach for sweaters more than sun dresses!  So what’s better than a little dip into some more fall colours? 

  

The polishes used for my tribal print nails were: 

  • China Glaze Fancy Pants 
  • China Glaze Lets Dew It!
  • Essie Jiggle Hi, Jiggle Low
  • Hard Candy Coconut 
  • Stripe Rite striping polish in Gold
  • QUO by ORLY striper in Black
  • Art Club Nail Art Duo in Neon Pink 
  • Seche Vite 

I really really love this combination of colours together! Also China Glaze Lets Dew It! is simply perfection and I love everything about it! 

  
 What are you wearing on your nails now that we’re into September? Part of me wants to hold onto Summer a little bit more… But Fall is calling me! 🍁🍂

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! 🍁🍂☕️

My first ever Instagram meet up! 

  This past weekend I got to take part in my first ever Nail Meet Up with my fellow Halifax nail bloggers! It so was exciting to get to meet up with the amazing fellow nail artists that are local! 
  

Clockwise, from left to right:

It was so lovely to meet the fantastic ladies I follow on Instagram, and meet some new lovely girls as well! We talked all things polish and life in general which was just so much fun! It was really awesome to connect with people who don’t judge you for owning 800+ bottles of polish! 

  
 @thebasecoat was also super sweet and brought everyone a few goodies all wrapped up with pretty sparkly tissue paper (which my kitties loved rolling on–the were sparkling all day! Haha) In my gift bag I received a mini Finger Paints in a vibrant pink (no name) and China Glaze Lets Dew This from the new fall collection! Purple and blue sparkles?! My favourite! I have a feeling I’m probably going to be wearing this polish quite a bit this Fall. 

 

For the occasion I went with some chevron moons in purple and blue– my favourite colours and design! The polishes I used for this mani were: 

  • China Glaze December to Remember. 
  • OPI Suzy & the 7 Düsseldorfs 
  • Stripe Rite striping polish in Gold
  • QUO by ORLY Striper in black. 
  • Seche Vite

So nice to get to spend time with such fabulous ladies, and I definitely can’t wait for the next one!

Freehand triangle accent nails. 

I’ve wanted to create a mini triangle patterned nails for a while now, but I’m no good with striping tape! So I decided to give them a try with my striping polish! My freehanding has been getting better with practice so I’m very happy with how these turned out. 

   
The polishes I used for this manicure were: 

  • Yves Saint Laurent Nail Lacquer in Violine Surrealiste 
  • Yves Saint Laurent Nail Lacquer in Violet Baroque
  • Essie Mochacino
  • Essie Jiggle Hi, Jiggle Low
  • QUO by ORLY striper in White
  • Seche Vite 

 

  

What do you think of this mani? I absolutely adore how my triangles turned out! I wore this mani for a full two days which almost never happens. I would have kept it on another day but they started to chip thanks to work (darn stock days…). I will definitely be trying this design again soon!

Tribal accent nails featuring Essence Lets Get Lost! 

I’ve been a little lost on nail art inspiration lately so I decided to go with one of my favourite nail art designs–tribal! I’ve always loved Aztec inspired nails, and so the other night when I couldn’t come up with any manicure ideas I decided to pull an old favourite out of my back pocket! 

  
  

The polishes I used for this manicure were:

  • Essence Lets Get Lost! 
  • Hard Candy Coconut
  • Art Club Nail Art Duo in Bubblegum Pink
  • Essence Nothing but Lovestoned
  • QUO by ORLY nail art striper in black.
  • QUO by ORLY nail art striper in white.
  • OPI My Favourite Ornament 
  • ACO by Ardene Just Saying 
  • Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat

  
   
So what do you think of this manicure? I forgot how awesome Essence Lets Get Lost! is. The formula has never let me down, and after owning it for two years it still goes on perfectly. 💙
