ER31DC - Day 18 Half Moons

Hello again, its Half Moon Day!

I went a little outside of my own personal box today and started with a yellow base (Ciaté Big Yellow Taxi). I then chose to paint white triangles where my moons would be, and outlined with a double black line. 

What do you think? I'm not sure yet. But it reminds me of Brownies. Did anyone go to Brownies as a kid? It reminds me of the jumper and neckerchief I had to wear :)

ER31DC - Day 17 Glitter

Good morning!

Its yet ANOTHER 31DC mani today. Glitter! YAY for glitter!

I have pulled out one of my favourites for today - Ellagee - Beyond The Sea.

Laura originally sent me this for review, but I loved it so much I had to buy a large bottle of it. I have it here over Butter London Slapper.

What do you think? Do you like it? Would you wear it? Do you have either of these polishes? Want them?

ER31DC - Day 16 Tribal

Hey all!

Here I am again - am I sick? Maybe. Catching up super quick for the 31 Day Challenge. Today is Tribal. I took inspiration from the tribal artwork we used to study in art at school. Absolutely loved it and still stop to ogle it if i see it in a gallery or shop window. This is the picture I took inspiration from - can you see the different sections I took from? 

The colours I used were Sally Hansen - The Sky's the Limit, Barry M - Mushroom and Sinful Colors - Black to Black and Snow Me White.

What do you think? Would you wear it? Does it look tribal to you?

ER31DC - Day 15 Delicate Print

Good morning! Catching up quickly with the 31DC again. Here's my 'delicate print' mani.

I think I may have gone off on a tangent here, but I did these because I have seen them done and I always think they look delicate - so this is what popped into my head when I looked at today's theme. Dreamcatcher nails!

What do you think? Would you wear them? I have to admit, I am in LOVE with the base colour - Deborah Lippmann Modern Love. The other colours I used were Sinful Colors Black to Black and Snow Me White. I think this would look lovely with another colour interjected, maybe for the beads and feathers such as pink or blue. Will definitely do these again!

ER31DC - Day 14 Flowers

Hey all!

Back again with Day 14 of the Extra Relaxed 31 Day Challenge. Today is Flowers. As you know I love floral patterns and you'll see a lot of vintage roses, poppies and sunflowers on my nails. I decided to go a bit different today though and took inspiration from another of my favourite flowers - the Iris. Then I just went a bit abstract on my nails - they're sort of IKATish maybe?

What do you think? It looks quite nice from afar - I quite like the colour combination, but it doesnt really look anything like an iris, does it? The colours I used were Illamasqua Faux Pas for the base, Sinful Colors Snow Me White, Black on Black and Lets Meet.

ER31DC - Day 13 Animal Print

Hey all - another installment for the 31 Day Challenge. Today is Animal Print! 

You'll have seen I've done quite a lot of animal print lately, especially leopard print, so I had a go at my first free hand animal stripes. What do you think?

Then I added in some leopard print, just because. The colours I used were Sinful Colors Black to Black and Barry M Gold Foil Effects.

Nail Art Challengez - Black and White Day 6 - Recreate Your Favourite

Hi all!

Last day of the Black and White challenge hosted by Beauty Shoes Nails and Fun. So again, thanks go to her for hosting this fab challenge! X

I decided to go all the way back to Day 1 - Geometric, and I chose Cubbiful's mani to recreate. I loved this as soon as I saw it - I hope you like my version with a twist :)

As you can see, I am not great with the striping tape. I also knocked this after taking only a couple of photos.. so I redid with another twist, but you'll have to wait for another post to see that one!

Don't forget to check out everyone elses manis!
