Vintage Romance


Good morning everyone!! How was Valentine's for you? It was our first V-day post marriage & we celebrated with a nice candlelight dinner, flowers & a red velvet cake I baked. I wanted to do a special mani for the day but I can't draw intricate hearts & I don't own any nail stamps. So I decided to go with a soft vintage feel on my nails. This one was seriously time consuming & required a ton of materials, but the end result was surely worth it.
For the index finger, I used a soft blue & white polish & striping tape to create the stripes & topped it with a fimo heart (cute, no?). The middle finger has a light pink base with glitter. On the ring, light blue base with pink roses, & a pearl, rhinestone & stud on a glitter pink base for the pinky.

Mint & Black


Good morning everyone!! Wasn't able to post for quite some time as I haven't been feeling too well lately. The sudden terrible heat made me fall ill twice in 10 days :( So yesterday I finally gathered my strength & decided to do my nails. This week I've have one of my favorite color combos, mint & black. On the index I applied 2 coats of mint & a silver star stud. On the middle, 2 coats of mint & one coat of a matte black & white glitter polish. On the ring, 2 coats of white & striping tape & black polish for the stripes. Finally on the pinky &thumb, I used 3 coats of a sand finish black polish. I love doing all my nails in different patterns & I think the color combo worked really well here. Hope you like it too!!
