Ombre color block

I am one lucky girl ! :) There is this colleague of mine who, every time he goes to Milan, he buys me and all the other girls from my department lovely Kiko nail polishes (click here and here to see the others I have from him). This time, he really took the time to pick some special gifts for us: 1 Kiko Multi-Effect Nail Lacquer, a Valentina eyeshadow and a cute and colorful nail file. Sunt o fată tare norocoasă ! :) Este un coleg de-al meu care,...

The Polish Addict Group Challenge - 23. Splattering

I really love the T.P.A. Group Challenge because it gives me the chance to try out techniques I have never used before. For today, I obtained a gorgeous manicure with a straw and no special talents - it's called the 'splattering' technique. Basically, all you have to do is to take a straw, cut it into pieces of about 5-6 cm, transfer some nail polish on one end of the straw and blow through the other end. Ador colaborările din cadrul grupului...

Pink water drop cabochon manicure

Hello, everybody ! Born Pretty Store is hosting another nail art contest on their blog, so I immediately signed up for the challenge.

For this manicure I wanted to create an unique look. More precisely, I wanted to recreate the design of the cabochons on my nails,...

The Polish Addict Group Challenge - 22. Color blocking

It's Saturday again, so I get the chance to show you another design. Today's manicure is inspired by color blocking, a trend that usually combines at least two colors to create a look (whether it's about clothes, nail art, makeup etc.). Este din nou sâmbătă, așa că am ocazia să vă arăt un alt model. Manichiura de astăzi este inspirată de 'color blocking', o tendință care de regulă combină minim două culori pentru a crea un look (indiferent că...

The Polish Addict Group Challenge - 21. Studded nails

Studded nails ? Glad to ! ^_^ It's time for a new challenge from the T.P.A. Group just because it's Saturday, and I was more than happy to accept it just because I love studs... and I think you all know that. :) I couldn't settle for just one design, so I decided to play a little bit with the studs I have in my collection. However, I kept it simple and painted most of my nails black and chose gold for my accent nails on the ring fingers and thumbs. Unghii...

My first guest post

Hello, ladies ! I was recently offered the chance to write my first guest post on somebody else's blog and here I'm talking about Kleo's blog. It's a true honour for me to do this and I was really nervous when I first started thinking what I should write about. I finally decided that a Valentine's Day manicure would be great, so I started working on it without giving it much thought. Please check Kleo's post and let me know if I nailed it. Thank...
