Burnt Orange, Silver & Black Dogtooth

Hi all

Bit of an odd combo today, after doing these nails that I loves so, so much, I wanted to do another version, and basically everything went a little bit funny :P
Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colours: W7 - Silver Suede & Cliché - Desserto
Stamping Colour: BYS - Black Satin
Image Plate: Konad M63
Glitter: H&M - Silver Frost
Top Coat: Sally Hansen Advanced Hard As Nails 
I started with two coats of Silver Suede, stamped with BYS black satin, taped half of it off and did a coat of Cliché - Desserto, after that was dry I added a stripe of glitter and a top coat.

I definitely preferred my original purple green combination, so these only lasted two days on me before I was picking at them.

NOPI - Jade In The Shade & Technic - Mermaid Swatches

Happy Saturday guys! Hope you've enjoyed yours as much as I've enjoyed mine (spent it internet shopping... and bought nothing, aha!)

Small post today, just some swatches from a few weeks back. Nicole by OPI - Jade In The Shade is a pretty blue metallic that sometimes has a bit of an aqua look to it, it's the kind of colour that you can get from pretty much any brand, nothing special. The formula on this isn't great, and these pictures show three coats.

And this is with one coat of Technic - Mermaid
Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Nicole by OPI - Jade In The Shade
Glitter: Technic - Mermaid
Top Coat: Rimmel 60 Seconds Clear

Pretty pretty, I think it'd look great over a dark blue creme.

That's it from me. I'll be back tomorrow for the Adventures In Stamping challenge :]
