A Little Girly

This look is just a girly combination of the images from the Bundle Monster BM317 plate.

My base polish is Color Club Secret Rendezvous. I stamped with Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Pink Satin and Konad Special White Polish.

Pineapple Nails

I copied these from this design from A Girl and Her Polish I found through Pinterest. I thought they were adorable! I know some areas are transitioning into the fall season already, but it's still very hot here in Louisiana. Summery nail art still applies! :)

Cute, right?! Here is how I did it:

Started with 2 coats of Sally Hansen Insta Dri Lightening

1 coat of Sation Sunset Silk.

This polish is mostly sheer on it's own, so 1 coat over bright yellow just added a bit of orange shimmer.

Then I stamped BM-310 with Barielle Coco Bar. I didn't care that it wasn't perfect. I missed some near the cuticle, but that's where the leaves are going to go...

Base of the leaves with Kiss Nail Art Striper in white.

Freehanded some Sinful Colors Exotic Green over the white leaves. (This green is also sheer and I didn't want it to take on a yellow tone, hence the white base)

Some darker shadows added to the leaves with OPI Jade is The New Black.

Then I added some highlights to the leaves with China Glaze Refresh Mint.

(I wish I had stopped before this step lol. I think the green is too light.)

What do you think?

Classy Neutral

These were inspired by this design I found through Pinterest. It's a clean look with a classy touch.

 I used Lime Crime Milky Ways, Essie Sand Tropez, & Sinful Colors Black on Black. The silver striping tape is from Born Pretty.

Have you been inspired by any designs showing up on Pinterest? Share them with me! I'd love to see more great designs.

Sweet Little Piggies

I found this pedicure design through Pinterest and knew immediately that I wanted to recreate it. I think they are adorable and oh so sweet and girly. :)

I used Sally Hansen Lavender Cloud, China Glaze Second-hand Silk, and Kiss Nail Art Striper in Black. The stripes and hearts were all freehanded although the perfectionist in my kind of wishes I had used tape.

Good Morning Glory

Sally Hansen Salon Effects strips. I scored these on clearance at Walmart for something like only $2-$3. That's the only time I'm willing to buy these strips. I think they last the best out of all that I've tried, but I would rather spend $8 on a bottle of polish that will last me 100 manicures.... Rather than spend it on a one time use product.

These were fun to wear. They are white with a purple toile (?) print with flowers.

Here I layered one coat of Shimmer Polish Rochelle over Essie Very Structured because I felt it had a very earthy/fall look to it.

 Here I stamp a M.A.S.H-35 fleur de lis with China Glaze 2030 as an accent.
