Nail Art │ Wonder Woman Inspired Manicure [Nails Crazies Unite]
Aug 26, 2018
Hello, sweeties! How are you?
I'm a little late sharing my manicure this week, as I usually post early on Friday or Saturday, but I decided to take it easy this weekend. What was right on time was my menstrual cramps and I am feeling a little tired, hence my delay posting. I didn't want to miss this appointment for the "Nail Crazies Unite" nail art Challenge because this week's theme is Superheroes/Villains nails!! I SO SO WANTED TO DO A WONDER WOMAN NAIL ART!!
In reality I had something more intricated in mind that involved freehand painting, but given the fact that I was feeling under the weather, I did a simpler version. This is how my nails turned out!
Nail art │Blue and White Nautical Manicure [Nail crazies unite]
Aug 11, 2018
Hello, sweeties! How are you?
Today we have another appointment for the "Nail Crazies Unite" nail art Challenge! This week's theme is Blue and White Nautical nails. This is also the first time I don't have a new nail art to share with you. Oh, noes! Well, you know, I love painting nail art, but this week was almost impossible. I had so many random things to do and prepare, my children are still on school break, which means my mornings are super short! I've also recently started a healthier lifestyle, which consists of exercising more. I feel wonderful this way, but it is also more time consuming of course. Not to mention that next Monday is back to school for my boy, so there were a few things to get back on track as well. That's why I didn't have the energy to do my nails last week.
Oh well, you know I always manage to paint my nails, regardless of all my activities, but it is always a chill out moment to me and if I had to do so in stress and a forceful way, I felt it made absolutely no sense. So I decided that for today's challenge I was going to repropose to you a nail art I've done in the past, which is blue and white and nautical too! I hope you'll like it :)

Hello sweeties!
Today I'll be very busy preparing for my boy's b-day party tomorrow. I'll be cooking and crafting and whatnot, it'll be so fun! But I didn't want to miss the appointment with the talented ladies of the 26 Great Nail Art Ideas Challenge. This week's prompt is "Mixed tape mani" and this is what I came up with. Keep reading to find out how I created this manicure and what materials I used :)

Happy Friday sweeties! How are you today?
I'm very happy preparing the last things for our family vacation! One more day to go and we'll be off to Italy! I can't wait ♥_♥
I'll be keeping today's post short and sweet, because I still have to pack, but I didn't want to miss the appointment with the 40 Great nail Art ideas Challenge, which today brings us a rather unusual theme for nail art. INSECTS!! Of course, by the first picture you've already guessed what I tried to represent and I took the easy minimal path :P
But I'm sure this Friday will be full of bugs ;)
33DC - Day 26: Nail art inspired on pinterest
Nov 20, 2013
Hello my dears! how are you?
Another day, another mani. This is day 26 for the 33 Days Challenge and the prompt is Inspired on Pinterest. I have an Inspiration board, that honestly hasn't been fed with new images in a while. but I still had some nice pictures to choose from, so I went with a lovely teal dress from Rodarte spring 2013 collection:
33DC - Day 24: Manicure featuring the colour you own the most
Nov 15, 2013
Hello my dears, how are you today?
The 33 Days Challenge continues today with the prompt "the colour you own the most". I have my collection reunited in colour families (purple, blue, green) and then nuances (light blue, medium blue, navy blue, etc). So without hesitation I can say the colour I own the most is Green and the nuance of green that I have more off is Teal green. I always think of Teal as blue/green shade more towards the green side, as the bird, and turquoise more towards the blue, as the stone. Or is it the other way round? I guess this is totally personal and all the more subjective.
Day 3: Tape mani
Sep 27, 2013
Happy Friday my lovelies! You can't imagine how happy I am the weekend is almost there, I really desperately need a break and my house really desperately needs some cleaning and tyding, LOL! What about you?
For the third day 33 days challenge I went for a simple "funky French" manicure using striping tape. It was pretty easy though my topcoat refused to collaborate and dragged my pretty lines... well, what can I say, accidents happen and I definitely need a new topcoat :)
The tri-polish challenge day 10: why not union Jack?
May 23, 2013
Hello my dears! How are you doing today? I have for you the another manicure I've created for the Tri-polish challenge. As you know this month I'll have to stick to three colours, grey, blue and red, and they were already presented here.
While thinking what good could came from grey, blue and red, baring in mind I could also have free use of white, black and toppers, I remembered how I always found quite awesome the flag manicures, specially the Union jack, because I think it's kind of iconic in the world of fashion. I thought it would also be a nice opportunity to practice my striping tape skills, and decided to give it a go!

Hello my dears, how was your weekend? I hope you're enjoying it! I have been very busy, but gave myself some "nail-freetime", lol, and I'm taking the opportunity to schedule some posts with my draft pictures. I'm trying to schedule enough posts for the upcoming week, so I hope you don't mind if I keep it short-ish :P
