Twin post: Jewel Nails

Hey! :D 

Today I will show you a mani, I never thought I'd try :P You may now the designs where the nail is kinda like framed by another color?

A few days ago I saw that Ivana posted this picture on twitter and said that it stole her heart, and that she would love round nails right now to do this mani. Since Sophie and I have round nails we were inspired and decided to do a twin post today with this manicure! 

First I thought I'd do the exact same color combination as in the pic, but I chose a gold-blue combo instead :) 

I used: Catrice - Goldfinger and Chicogo - Fuel. The next thing I had to think about, was whether I paint on the gold polish and with a little brush add the inner color or whether I use a small brush to frame the blue color. I tried both and the first option went better for me. Whew, hard to explain this :)) 

Now I have to say that I'm not sure if I like it or not! At first I loved it!! After starring at it for a few minutes I wasn't sure anymore...then the sun came out and it looked gorgeous, after the sun was gone I didn't like it anymore ... and so on .. 

So please be honest and tell me: do you like it? 

Would you wear this or have you already tried it? :)

Sunlight Pic!! :D I love this blue so much, it really looks like jewels! :)  

Make sure to go over to Sophie's blog and check out her interpretation of this mani!! It's a green-gold version and it looks gorgeous ;) 

Have a nice day and see ya tomorrow with a little franken of mine ;) 

Christmas Challenge Day 3 - Icicles

Hello everybody!

Short post today :P Here are my Icicles:

I used Chicogo - Fuel as a base, Essence - White Hype for the icicles and Essence - Silver Surfer for the accents. I also mixed a little white and blue polish to get a light blue color for the accents too.

I must say, that I don't like this design very much and that's why I took it off right away :P But tomorrows theme is "Snowman"! How cute :D Can't wait to do that! ;)

Don't forget to check out the designs of the other ladies!! :)

Kaki, Paint That Nail, Steffi, Jessica, Salpi, Shannara, Kirshten, Lexi Martone and Kelly.

See ya tomorrow! :-*
