Free hand and layered glitter !!!!

Hello, my lovelies....

It's Monday and the sun is shining bright outside - probably the perfect moment for a lazy walk in the park or a late lunch with a friend... In my case the moment is perfect for a quick blog post since I'm at home for a short vacation. 

I've shared this design on Instagram few days ago and it's time to give some more info about it. The precious moments for nail art are somewhere at the end of my to-do list lately. I have tons of ideas but no time at all to give them life. Sad but true. So when I found myself able to steal half an hour for some free hand work I do it with pleasure. 

This time I've used few of my all time favorites - Zoya Chyna, Golden rose Jolly jewels 110 and Perfect S114 and a bit of black acrylic paint to create the abstract monogram inspired design. The black frame became too thick and dramatic but things will get better next time. After all it's a matter of practice and patience.... Hope you'll enjoy it....

Red and white inspiration !!!!

Hello, my lovelies....

Today is March the 1st and here in Bulgaria we celebrate with giving martenici to our closest people to bring them health and luck. This is one of the oldest traditions in our country and is a sign for the upcoming spring. We are wearing our martenici since we see the first blooming tree or a stork in the sky. This is the sign that spring is here.

In order to celebrate this holiday I've tried to make a design inspired by the old traditions of making martenici from woolen yarn.

Pixie Dust Gradient for sparkling claws !!!!

Hello, my lovelies....

I've been in a great dilemma how to decorate the claws and guess what - nothing even close to decoration has crossed my mind. Empty mind. So, after wearing the nude shades from the last post for a couple of days I just clean them off and grab two of my favorite Pixie dusts - Tomoko and Chyna. I know it looks pretty plain but the gorgeousness of these beauties was all I really need at this moment. The rich red filled with tons of glitters and the white gold next to it is always a right decision.

With no further blah-blah let me show you the sparkling claws.

Red flower decals from Born Pretty Store !!!!

Hello, my lovelies....

It's Saturday morning. Finally. My coffee mug is right beside me. My little/or not so little/ princess is at home. I'm preparing myself for a relaxing day with some friends. Well, it looks like a great begining for a wonderful day. 

Let's start the weekend with some beautiful and chic roses on the nails of course from Born Pretty Store.

So gorgeous!

I'm really thrilled how easy is to decorate my nails with that kind of water decals. This is the tird set I'm using and what to tell - they all are fantastic. Of course I won't give up free hand painting - it's my passion - but playing with water decals has become one of my favorite ways to add some awesomeness on the claws.

 Born Pretty Store offers great deals at the moment. Just go and take a look at the store. Of course there is a  free shipping and you can always use a coupon code to reduce the final - TM2X31 !

Me, Red Frog with Orly&Zoya !!!!

Hello, my lovelies….

Today’s mani is from the kind I like most – red and golden with bold decorations and contrast finishes. It’s screaming: Me, Red Frog! Time to time I grab my most favorite polishes and make something to indulge myself only. Most of the times people look shocked seeing my nails – too long, too decorated, too sharp, too... I don’t care. My nails are part of my individuality. Your Red Frog has long sharp nails and long bright red hair. Nothing more, nothing less. It’s not mandatory to like me. It will be great at least to accept me.

Draft Series:Ikat mix !!!!

Hello, my lovelies ....

Let's get back in the recent past with the next mani from the draft box. It's a mix of different finishes and colors with a little touch of free hand painting. I'm not quite sure but I think that's my first ikat attempt. As it's seen on the photos this mani is from my rounded nails period and it's one of the reasons for me to like my present stiletto shaped nails more.

The violet - red combo always inspires me a lot. I like to see those two side by side.

Enjoy, my lovelies.

Perfect Sand Lacquer vs. Zoya - red sand comparison !!!!

Good evening,lovelies...

Wait...Going to bed?Stay a bit...just for a while.

The last couple of days I was feeling the need of wearing red...just red.No art,nothing.I've missed it with all that nail art dancing aroud my mind and on my nails...Yes,I've missed it - clear,bright,stunning red.Sometimes things should be straight and clear.And I've made the decision - a red sand comparison.What's better than a stunning red with gritty finish?I'll tell you - two stunning reds.

Now,lovelies,open your eyes and prepare for some red sand gorgeousness - it's time for Zoya and Perfect.These two red treasures need all your attention believe me.

Zoya Pixie Dust Chyna -

She is strong and sophisticated.She knows she worth it.She knows she's one of a kind.

About Chyna - deep rich red shade,pixie dust particles in few sizes mixed with little sparkling glitters,great sand effect that stays strong for more that couple of days,drying time is excellent.

Perfect Sand Lacquer S52 - 

She is playful and naughty.She likes playin' games.She knows she's irresistible.

About S52 - bright bloody red shade,almost matte sand effect with very sensual gritty finish,drying time...well - she's still young,needs more time to get focused...but don't get me wrong - drying time is quite good.

Now enjoy.
