Lavender & Floral Decals

Good morning everyone!! I may have give you all the impression that I've abandoned the blog for good, but I assure you that's not the case. I just didn't feel like doing my nails for the last two weeks. I'd even done the base for a design I'd thought of, but couldn't go anywhere beyond that. Maybe it's the result of doing your nails regularly. This week I finally pushed myself & came up with this simple & sweet mani. I've always been a bold colors kind of girl, but ever since this polish came as a part of a wedding gift, I've been in love with it. The lavender's so soft & muted & the decals really add to it. Promise I'll come back with something spectacular next week!!

Stripes, Flowers & Glitter

Good morning everyone!! The weekend was really amazing for me as I got a chance to deliver a hundred cupcakes for an event. To complement my happy frame of mind, I decided to do my nails in a fun & happy color with my favorite elements, flowers & bling. I used my favorite green polish on the index & pinky & used striping tape & white polish for the stripes. On the middle, I used white with floral decals. For the ring, I applied a gold sand finish polish but thought it looked dull compared to the rest of the nails. So I topped it off with a chunky gold glitter polish. Hope these make you happy too :)

Denim & Studs

Good morning everyone!! Along with Hooked On Pink, I'd also picked up Denim Dash from the Maybelline Colorshow range which I decided to wear this week. I love this one!! It totally lives up to its name, more so as it dries to a matte finish. And what better to complement the color with some zippers & studs. I've applied 2 coats of Denim Dash, water decals on all nails except the ring, where I've used studs. Quite edgy I say.

Royal Blue with Beads & Rhinestones

Good morning everyone!! This is the mani I wore for my birthday two days ago. There was a time when it was compulsory for my outfit & nails to be matchy-matchy. I've outgrown that phase a long time ago, but I fell so in love with the colors of my birthday outfit that I decided to do my nails in the same combo. I applied 3 coats of a dark blue polish & gold decals. Finished it off with red & white rhinestones & gold beads. I really love how royal & intricate this mani turned out to be. The pics are a bit hazy as they were taken from my cellphone camera. Hope you like it :)

Pastel Pink with Hello Kitty

Good morning everyone!! I'm actually finding it quite difficult to decide what to do with my nails ever since I'd to cut them short. Having kept my nails shaped square for a number of years makes it difficult for me to see them otherwise. So I decided to do something simple and what better than to use some pretty decals, especially Hello Kitty :) I've applied a pastel pink polish, used a dotting tool for the yellow & hot pink dots & then applied the decals. The pink base is a local polish & is very pretty, but quite streaky as well. Even three coats couldn't solve the issue.

Good morning everyone!! Had these pretty floral water decals lying around for a long time and this week I finally decided to put them to use. I've applied two coats of white polish followed by sponging white and blue for the tips. Applied the decals and finished with topcoat. I'm quite happy with what I've come up with :)
