New Years Nails! Only 11 Days Late!!

I apologise! 

my laptop died AGAIN! so was off being repaired. 
I do often wonder if people notice I have gone lol I'm sure some of you do :D 

So here are the nails I wore on New Years Eve.


I wore these for a very uneventful night in!
 As you know I have 2 young boys so I don't get out much at all now a days. 

This is Storm by Zoya. 
It is superbly superb! 
It has holo glitter scattered in a black base. 
2 coats in the ^above^ pic


I used a Moyou plate from the Festive collection for the gold streamers. I wanted to use the designs with "Happy New Year" and a clock on but they are just so bloody huge. I couldn't get them to fit on my nails at all. Its annoying when you buy a plate and can only use like 1 design :( 

I'm not quite sure what possessed me to put a blue bow on this Hahahah. I don't like it at all now I'm looking back at it. 


I hope you had a fab new years and 2014 is treating you well so far!

Daring Damask Nail Art




 Here we have a very sexy nail art! 
Without the sun shining on it, the pattern was actually quite subtle. 
I expect to find this type of pattern on the wall of some boudoir lol!


Products used 

China Glaze Purr Fect Plum 
Konad Special Polish in Black
Cheeky Jumbo Plate European Romance 
Seche Vite Top Coat.

I always forget I own this China Glaze beauty, but when I have it on I love it!

What do you think of this? Does it match your wallpaper LOL

Essie Peacock




 Its our three year wedding anniversary next week and my lovely hubby bought me some very gorgeous Essie and OPI polishes from +Fragrance Direct 

Here Is Essie's Bikini So Teeny a stunning shimmering bluey grey type purple ha ha. This is the bottle I'm holding in the pic, 
Mojito Madness is the yummy green. This had a fantastic consistancy and was opaque in two very thin coats. 
and the pink is Cascade Cool. A dusky, pastel pink.
All the Essie polishes have, of course, a fantastic formula and colour coverage. 
The shimmer in Bikini So Teeny really catches the light and sets this polish apart from the few other pastel blues I own.

I used stamping plate BM-212 and used a dotting tool to fill in the centres. 

I have never met a Essie, that i didn't like :)

Louis Vuitton Inspired Nails, Paris Fashion Week 2013

 
 It was all about the chequered pattern at the Paris fashion week for Louis Vuitton, so i have done a nail design inspired by this pattern.
Checks are bound to be everywhere by summer.
 
 
I used Cheeky Plate CH3 for the checks and Fuchsia by China Glaze for the base colour.
Barry M Gelly Blackberry for the stamping.
I did find the pattern abit of a pain to get straight, and its not dead on but i think it looks fab.
This is a bright,vibrant take on the monotone version.
The design will look great with a tan!

City Siren With Star Stamping

 
China Glaze's City Siren x 2 and NYC French Tip White
 
 
Beautiful starry design using a Cheeky stamping plate, purchased from Amazon.co.uk
Cheeky plate, like bundle monster, are a cheaper version of Konad. The quality of the plates are pretty much the same and they have some beautiful designs.
I choose cheeky and bundle monster over konad any day.
 
 
I think the feature nails look great in this design, but i think i would have prefured white stars on all the nails, not just the thumb.
I love China Glaze, Of course :p, and this colour is a lovely shade.
