Barry M Bright Purple & NYC Foil'er Up With Bundle Monster :]

First time trying this polish out, Scott bought me it a month ago, and I didn't remember about it until I went to go find the goodies for my giveaway. It's such a nice colour, and as always, Barry M's formula's spot on. First time with this image too, and I quite like it but I think I should of added some gems too.

Brown And Gold Peacock

I think I'm starting to wear more Autumn colours now as it's definitely getting colour, and the biggest tree in my garden is almost naked! Although I'm not sure how long I will stay away from bright summer colours, cause I love eye catching nails, but we shall seeee.

I've never been a brown person, though it's growing on me; and back when I was 15-16 would never have even considered wearing it on my nails, never mind clothing. I'm not sure if it's because my taste's changed as i've gotten older, or just becasue I love polish that much and want to try everything out, and then there's trends to consider too. I don't know! Anyhoo, onto the nails ^_^

And just for good measure a picture of one of my kitties Cheese, who was not impressed with me being up at the windowsill taking up her bird watching space :P

Essence Grand Plié In Black & Chrome Spider Web Tips

I trimmed my nails the other day and decided they would be a good length to do some Halloween stamping, and this is what I did. They're so simple but were quite fun to wear because of the contrast between the black and the bright silver chrome goodness xD

Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

Grand Plié In Black Is a three coater because of it's jelly base, when i was wearing it I couldn't help wishing there was more glitter, but looking at the photos I actually like how sparse it is. Though there is some my camera didn't pick up.

Miss Sporty Gold Backstage And Electric Beige Dogtooth

So the other week the boyfriend Scottius bought me some Miss Sporty polishes. I've been on the lookout for the perfect gold for some time now, especially for stamping. But everything I seem to find, Is too cool of a gold to stamp on warm colours and still look true gold. However with all that said done Scott was also on the hunt for me, maybe to shut me up :P I don't know, but after some info from Helly About Electric Beige from Miss Sporty, we thought we'd give it a try. And there just happened to be a 3 for 2 offer on xD

Here I'll be showing the beige and the gold, the other colour I have is a total dupe for P2 - Passion, Which will be another post once i've swatched it.

Miss Sporty - Electric Beige (2 coats) Excuse the dry hands ;(

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Miss Sporty - Gold Backstage
Stamp Colour: Miss Sporty - Electric Beige
Plate: Konad M63
Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

I only stamped the beige on the gold to see how well it would show up, I was certain that it would be difficult to see in person, and even my camera had a little bit of a struggle capturing it at first. All I can say is Electric Beige Is so nice to stamp with, the formula is incredible, it dries almost like a true chrome, but it has a glossier texture, and doesn't ruin as fast while stamping. I haven't yet tried Gold Backstage for stamping, but I imagine it will be a lot like H&M - Wa Wa Woom, although Gold Backstage is a lot, a lot warmer. 

Maybe I Should do a comparison of all the golds I own one day xD

Hope everyone's having a nice Saturday :]

Galaxy/Nebula Nails

I've been wanting to do these for some time now but I never got around to it, but with the 31 day challenge there's been a lot more Galaxy nails recently and I fell in love with the look all over again.

I love the way these turned out (although I do wish I'd left a bit more black visible, and chilled out with the dots a bit xD) But for my first try they're not half bad, and so sparkly ^_^

Here's What I Used (L-R)
Nail Rx - Stuck On You Base Coat, Essence - Grand Plié In Black, Nubar - 2010, China Glaze - Millennium, Sally Hansen - White On, Matalan G - Sangria, Manhattan - Lemonade, Deborah - Turquoise Fever,
Rimmel - Disco Ball, Maybelline Colorama - Ice Princess, China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat.

And Ice princess being stunning :]

P2 Pink It Up Chrome Zebra Konad

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You
Base Colour: P2 - Pink It Up
Stamp Colour: China Glaze - Millennium & N.Y.C. - Foil For You
Plate: Konad M57
Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

And a quick swatch pic. This is one of the polishes that I won in a giveaway, the formula is so so good. It goes on so smooth and perfect the chrome actually had a bit of a problem sticking. From now on I think before stamping with a chrome polish I'm going to do a thin base coat over the colour to help it stick.

Utopian Splatter

I did these nails whilst house sitting, on one of the rare days the dogs weren't doing my head in :P So these are probably a couple of weeks old, and since then I've cut my nails down a bit because my right thumb snapped, again!

LA Color Static Electricity & Bundle Monster

Another quick post today, I haven't posted in what feels like an age, and I just haven't had the motivation while coping with these dreaded dogs ¬_¬ But I'll be back to posting regularly and doing my nails without hassle in a day or two. I really can't wait to go home, I've had more than enough time with these dogs. I want my own bed, and my kitties!

This stamp just reminds me of the old school Pepsi sign.

M&S Mini & Chrome Multi Stamp Mani

You can't really tell too well from these pictures, but there's actually two chromes, pale pink, and a lilac, which switch top and bottom on alternating finger; if that makes any sense. For this I used 3 different Bundle Monster image plates and one Konad plate.

The blue is from a set of 4 mini's that I got as a "hard work" present from my old managers (<3 them) in the set there was a bright pink creme, a yellow, and two glass flecked polishes; this blue, and a turquoise mint type colour.

Direct sunlight, 2 coats of the blue.

New Chrome

I always get excited when I get a new chrome. All I need is a true gold, and a replacement blue and I'd be sorted. The new chrome is on my index finger. It's a champagne type color it's hard to tell exactly with it being so shiny.
