Fifty-fifty autumn design

I usually do my nails in the evening, after work, so the quality of my photos is somewhat influenced and even diminished by the flash and the lighting in the room. On Saturday, I painted my nails using the gorgeous dark brown I mentioned in this post, with the intention to do a swatch for you. Well, that turned out to be a bad idea, as in the photos I took I can almost see a black nail polish, as you can observe in the first picture. I gave up… De...

The Polish Addict Group Challenge - 9. Inspired by your favourite quote

This week's T.P.A. collaboration is "inspired by your favourite quote" and I chose one by the legend himself, Bob Marley, who said: "one good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain". I love music so much, that I cannot do anything without listening to music, of all types - it all depends on the mood I'm in. Therefore, Bob's quote was a natural choice for two reasons: I totally agree with him and I really love his music. I really...

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

I felt the need to wear pink again this week, so I can get it over with and switch to more neutral, earth-toned colours that fit autumn more. If last week I was showing you a rock version using studs as inspiration for a Pinktober manicure, this week I am wearing a softer, more delicate and more feminine manicure for which I used these water decals received from Born Pretty Store. These water decals are awesome, they are so easy to use and the...

The Polish Addict Group Challenge - 8. Inspired by cartoons

"Hey there, pretty mama !" :) Let me show you what I came up with for this week's T.P.A. Group Challenge. The theme is "Inspired by cartoons" and I chose Johnny Bravo because I really used to watch it a lot on Cartoon Network when I was a kid. I used to find him really funny, that "all muscle, no brains" type of guy that lives with his mother and has no luck in picking up chicks. I really hope you like the way it turned out. If not, well... "yeah,...

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

As you might already know, October is the Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Its symbol is the pink ribbon and the representative colour is, again, pink. I decided to wear pink as well, to support the cause and to help spread the word. Therefore, I used the wonderful neon pink from China Glaze called Love's A Beach, that I received as a prize after winning a contest. You can see the swatch and more details about this nail polish here. To make the design...

China Glaze Love's A Beach

I must admit that, ever since I won Gia's "Autumnal Look" Contest, I've been dying to try out this nail polish by China Glaze. I think this is the most expensive nail polish I own, so my expectations were very high. For starters, Love's A Beach is one of the coolest names I have ever heard when it comes to nail polishes and it really tickles my ears. :) It is a bright neon pink with very fine pink and magenta shimmer. I actually noticed this on...
