Bright red&white wild KOTD

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

How are you doing on this rainy day? (it's raining cats and dogs here, all of a sudden)

I've got a bright and cheerful manicure for you today and some guest nails again;) The polish used is Essence Tuvalu which I stamped with Konad special nail polish in white and image plate m57 and then added 1 coat of Poshe Fast drying top coat. It seems as red is the colour to go for my friend:) as she has had it at least  times in a row up till now, and I'm sure she'll have it next time too, haha.

What do you think of the combination? Which colour makes you day most often?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

First summer pedicure with Essence SYF - 'cause I love it bright

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

Please don't be scared, as I've got some pics of my latest pedicure to share with you;) I used Essence Show your feet in Hot red. Gorgeous bright red cream colour. There are 2 coats in the pictures and 1 coat of INM OutTheDoor topcoat over it. The flash made my skin look just too pale, my feet aren't really that white, haha.

What do you think of the colour? And what polish are you wearing on your toes?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished weekend:*

Eventhough the pics are clickable, I don't think you should enlarge them:D

A more subtle animal konadicure with holo and m78

Hey, dear readers and followers:)

How are you doing on this gorgeous hot day? What manicure/polish are you wearing?

For today's KOTD I used Color Club Love'em, leave'em (fully swatches HERE) and some old Visions nail polish in bronze colour, and Konad image plate m78. All photos except the first one were made in my lightbox, using artificial light and flash.

What do you think of the combination? Yay or nay?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

Another holo from Color club Love'Em, Leave'Em swatch

Hello, dear readers:)

Enjoying the weekend?

Today I've got another holographic nail polish from Color club for you, and I'm sure you already know this one:) It's Love'Em, leave'Em, gorgeous gold nude polish with subtle holo shimmer, which I could not capture so well as there's almost no sun when I took these pics. The application was great, there're two coats in the pictures. The first two pics were taken in my ligthbox with artificial light and flash, and the last two were taken indoors with flash. There's also no topcoat in any of the pics.

What do you think of the colour? Do you own it, too?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

Ginger-white KOTD with m69

 Hello, Lovelies:)

Finally Friday;)

I've got a konadicure for you;) what else to expect from me, right? The polish used is GOSH Ginger, fully swatched HERE.Today's image is I think no so very often used in stamping, at least I cannot remember seeing it very often if I even saw it, don't know. It's the image from m69 which I stamped with Konad special nail polish in white and then applied 1 coat of INM OutTheDoor top coat.

What do you think of the combination and the image? Have you used it or seen it somewhere?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished weekend:*

My very first GOSH polish - Ginger

Hello, dear followers and readers :)

It's Thurday! YAY :) One day to go till the weekend.

Here's another polish which I got a while ago, in my search for a dupe to Essence LE Creamylicious Iced chai latte, and was purchased and brought to me by two lovely Ladies from Rainbows and Blues, namely Kvacka and Anchek, thank you both:* It really looks similar to it, or they could even be called dupes, though Essence has got silver shimmer and GOSH has got gold in it. But both are gorgeous nude shades with shimmer. I made this manicure about a month ot even more ago, but did not manage to post it:S There are 2 coats in the picture over 1 coat of base coat, I did not have any application problems, and the drying time was pretty normal, too.

What you think of it? Own any similar ones? Do you think the mannequin hands are no longer in?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

RAOK from ThRiSzHa

Hello, dear readers and followers:)

How was your weekend?

I'm so happy because I received my very first RAOK, and it is from lovely ThRiSzHa which owns a splendid nail art and konad related blog Fab ur nails, I'm sure you all know her, but if you don't have a look at her awsome blog, you won't regret it!

ThRiSzHa sent me a package which contained a postcard with Abu Dhabi sites and a sweet note at the back. There were 3 fauxnad image plates which I did not have up till now; you know how much I love stamping, no need to repeat that, right ;) So the plates are B54,  B94 and M71, there's a Hello Kitty motive, YAY!

What's more to say than a BIG thank you to you, dear ThRiSzHa:* You're a true sweetheart and your package really made my day, especially the note at the postcard, thanks:*

That would be all for today, dear followers and readers, have a nice and polished day :*

Quick red and holo wild konadicure - guest nails

Hey,

dear readers and followers :) It's been a while since my last post. My index finger is getting better, and I must say these Essence patches work really great; I've had one on for a week and it still holds great, and my nail is slowely growing out. No mine nails today, but the usual guest nails you already know:)

For this manicure I used 2 coats of an unknow red polish, which I then stamped with konad im m57 (somehow my fav plate, at least if I count how many times I've used it by now:) and Color club Worth the risque. Then I applied 1 coat of Poshe Fast drying topcoat.

My friend really liked the combination, how about you?:)

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

Gradient Pink Cherry Chutney NOTD

Hello, dear readers:)

A quick post today. As I said yesterday I broke my index nail and this manicure is the last one I had made before I had to cut them down:(

For this mani I used my yesterday's NOTD with OPI Black cherry chutney and Oriflame  nail polish in Orchid which I applied with a sponge. There's not topcoat in the pictures, though it looks a bit rough, I should have added one:)

I kind of a like it, but not too much, how about you?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

OPI Black cherry chutney swatch- NOTD and an accident:(

Hey, dear readers:)

A quick post today. I'm sure you know this beauty I'm showing you today. It's OPI's Black cherry chutney, gorgeous dark shimmery reddish purple which looks almost black indoors, but it gets livelier when being in the sun or under light. It's completely opaque in 2 coats and there's also 1 coat of top coat in the pictures. All the pictures were taken in my lightbox, with artificial light and flash.The shimmer is really difficult to capture with camera, but as I did this manicure a few days before and wore it till yesterday, I wasn't able to do any pictures in the sun, which  would have done this polish justice. Please excuse the tipwear:)

While shopping on Friday, I hit with my finger into a shelf, silly me :S and broken my index finger so badly I did not know what to do, so I ran to a cosmetics store and bought Essence silky patches and their glue, cut my nails down and stick the patch to my broken nail. Before that I made a gradient manicure which I'm going to show you tomorrow:) But from this week on, you'll see a bit shorter nails than usual, well it was only a matter of time before I would cut them down, they were really getting to bother me while practising karate too.

So what do you think of the colour? What do you usually do when you break a nail? Any advice?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished start of the week:*

Swap, anyone??? :)

Hello, dear readers:)

How are you today? Feeling great?

I was wondering if anyone of you, my lovely readers, would be interested in swapping some nail polishes and other nail art stuff? I'm mostly interested in Color Club, Diamond cosmetics, Claire Mood polishes (especially the purple one <3 ), China glaze, Essie, OPI, etc. other brands that are not available where I live and some flakies of course, which are my lemming:P

The polishes I can send are Essence, S-he, Catrice (I've got only 2 from their LE), Vollare, Miss Sporty, H&M, and perhaps some other unknown brands. I'm going to Austria on Monday, so if you want me to get you some polishes from the Catrice line or H&M (they have added some gorgeous colours to their regular line, you can check the fellow European bloggers for the shades), let me know.

So what do you think? Yay or nay? Let me know or drop me an email if you're for it:)

Thank you, dear readers and followers:*
