NOTD: E.L.F. Plum

After a while comes my new NOTD. This time it's E.L.F. Plum, 1 coat over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2. For shine I added 1 coat of Essie g2g. This colour is pretty dark indeed, although not completely black. Great application with only one thick coat! What do you think of the colour? Do you like it or not? Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you all:**








I think that the last picture is the most colour accurate:)

Picture tag

There are some tags I just had no time to do, I have been quite busy these days, I attended a translators' symposium, then competed in a karate competition and took 2nd place;), had to prepare for my apprentice training as an English teacher which will last for 10 months, etc.



So here is my first tag by Pinkginger for Picture tag, thank you dear:*



The rules

1. Open your 1st photo folder



2. Scroll down to the 10th photo


3. Post that photo and story on your blog.


4. Tag 5 or more people




Here's the story behind:) I dance in a folklore group and this picture is from our 30th anniversary which happened this year in May. The men are performing an old dance with hats and the music is played everytime a bit faster, the one that looses his hat is out, the game continues until one remains. I'm not in the picture though, I have been learing for 1 year now, but this dance I have not learnt, so therefore I did not take part in it ;)

The bloggers or blogs I tag are in no particular order:

Mary from Beauty and Soul
Powerlifterchick from The Kronicles of a Konad-er
darkrose from darkrose fashion blog
darksome from darksomes secret blog

and all the others who have not done their tags yet;)

My very first frankenpolish or franky:)

Seeing all those beautiful franken polishes by you-blogggers, I just had to mix something myself;) So here is my first franky mixed from S-he 427, China glaze OMG and Essence Show your feet Purple magic. As you can see it's holographic. Really love the colour, what about you? Do you like it? Have any names for this shade? Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you all:*







Matching t-shirt, it's more matching in real life as  in the picture;)

There's never too much glitter, right;)

My previous haul included China glaze Fairy dust and I thought why not put it over yesterday's NOTD:) So here's the result, hope you like it. What do you think of think? Is it too much glittery? Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you:*

First part of the Belgrade haul:)

Today I present you the first of two polishes of Aura, a Serbian cosmetics company, I bought in Belgrade. This shade is very dark jelly blue with small light blue and silver glitter, the pictures do not do it justice, as it looks better in real life. There are 2 coats f Aura 806 Good night over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2. and 1 coat of INM OutTheDoors top coat. What do you think of the polish? Do you like it or not? Would you wear it? Any similar shades? Thank you dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished day:*

Branding-iron-NOTD

As promised, I present you my  Thursday's manicure with China glaze Branding iron. Perhaps the whole application was wrong, because I added first over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2 1 coat of Branding iron and then 1 coat of INM top coat, but as I hit with my thumb into desk I applied another coat of Branding iron over INM and then one additional coat of Essie g2g. The tips were already visible at the same day! There must be something wrong with application, right? What do you think? Does any of you own Branding iron? How long does it last?

Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you all:*

I'm BACK:)

Hello, dear readers!

How are you today? I had to take a long sleep to recover a bit, the ride took more than 6 hours in one direction and we did nor see much of Belgrade:( But I would not be me, if I had not bought some polish there, right;) I pampered myself with 2 polishes from a Serbian beauty company called Aura; photos of which I'll post later today or surely tomorrow. One is purple and the other one dark blue with small blue glitter, they both look so great<3 just hope they will remain great when put on nails:) Before I went to Serbia, I coloured my nails in China glaze Branding iron and took pictures of it, these will be posted today and some current pictures for comparison to see how the polish chipped  and how the tips are visible:(

How did you spend this weekend? Hope you all had great time!

Love and kisses, have a nice and polished day:*
