Mk's Geometric 80s Nails

Hey everybody! Wednesday my friend Mk came over to get her nails did (lol) and catch up since she had been gone all summer. Anyway she wanted something geometric with bold colors, so we came up with this design, which is very 80s. I taped off the triangular areas using tape then with my stripers outlined them.

Fashion Inspired Nails: Prabal Gurung

Today I have for you guys another fashion inspired mani, this time however it's from Prabal Gurung debut Resort '12 collection. To introduce his very first Resort collection he teamed up with Rye Rye to create a fashion music video showcasing the collection. I'm not as much of a fan of this collection as was the House of Holland one as its more girly but I do like the color palette he used. Like the other post first i'll be showing you my nails then the fashion!

Bluebell & Walter Mani

It's no surprise that I love my cats Bluebell and Walter, they are just so precious to me. So I decided to do a cat mani after them, Bluebell's really more brown in the face than cream but I don't own a brown polish so I just went with that.

Pink & Orange Geometric

I did my cousin Janie's nails again! This time we went with a geometric pattern. For her mani I used a new nail polish (Osaka-to-Me Orange) my friend Vanessa gave me! She also gave me two other OPI polishes Russian to a Party and a dusty rose/mauve shimmer polish that was missing its label. :(

Gold Digger

Loved the way this mani turned out! I want to do a silver disco ball version of this mani next! The gold holographic glitter on the tips really made this mani! You might have to click on the pics to enlarge them and get a better look at the glitter tips to really see that its holographic.

Christmas Mani: Water Marble

So I finally did a decent job at water marbling my nails after trying a few times within the last couple of weeks. This is definitely something I need to practice some more but it was fun and very very messy as you can see from the pic below.

Burgundy Swirl + Gems

I really liked the way the swirl effect came out so I decided to do another one after my Purple Swirl Mani. The Steps were the same as in the Purple Swirl Mani except this time I had to work a little faster because I was using a Matte nail polish and they tend to dry very quick. The Swirl effect is also a bit less noticeable with these colors but it still looks nice. You might want to click on the pics to enlarge and get a better look.

Plum Polish

This color is super old its from Avon's Color Trend line. The name of the polish is Plum, which it is with a more wine tone to it and small flecks of glitter in it which gives it a metallic-ish look to it.

Matte Nail Polish

I decided to try out matte nail polish so a couple of weeks back I ordered Avon's matte nail polish in Gray Cement. I had read in other blogs that matte nail polish doesn't last long and even the review on Avon's site mentioned it but still I wanted to try it out. It came in last week and people did not lie it really doesn't last long at all I'd say 2 days tops and that's with touch ups.

NOTD Skulls

Other nail blogs I read have inspired me to do more exciting things with my nails. So in attempt to do so I decided to do some skull nail art! I used this video as a reference but instead of a nail art pen I used a #0 paint brush (which is why my cross bones are really jacked up). Its alright for my first attempt at freehand nail art but I definitely need practice because they all look a bit wonky.































What I used
-Avon Nailwear in Viva Pink
-Avon Speed Dry in Sheer Chiffon
-Sephora by OPI in Never Enough Shoes
-Rhinestone for thumb nails
-Seche Vite Top Coat
