Disturbia Trip Nails

So for probably 3 months I've been wanting to do some Disturbia Clothing inspired nails, and I finally got around to doing them. I've been a fan of Disturbia clothing ever since I found out about them from my good friend Miss. Roy :] 

Me and my boyfriend have 18 T-shirts from them, at the last count, and it's sure to be more tomorrow, as we're attending the Autumn/Winter collection Launch Party, at their new location.

Onto the nails!

Right Hand

And a better shot of the Diamond
What was used:
Sally Hansen - White On
L.A. Colours - Static Electricity
Barry M - Grey & Lemon Ice Cream
Collection 2000 - Button Moon
M&S - Mini Pink
Nail Art Pens - Blue Shimmer, Yellow Shimmer & Black
Acrylic Paints - White, Black &  Deep Blue
Mac Glitter - Fuchsia
Striping Tape, Brushes & an Orange Stick.

And here is the T-shirt that inspired me:


Diamonds may be a girls best friend, but they are not mine! I love diamond nail art, but it was such a pain in the bum to do on my right hand, after a few failed attempts, my boyfriend helped me out with the outline (thank god :p) These took many hours to do, and I'm not sure if that's because I like to chill and take my time, or because I was watching back to back Awkward, and other shows. However, I still love them, And they're holding up pretty well for doing them on Sunday.

Rainbow Chevron

I was in the mood for fun and bright, and these were crazy fun to wear ^_^

I used Bundle Monster BM201 for the chevron design, and used BYS - black satin for the stamp


Colours Used: Sally Hansen - White On
Barbara Daly - Sunshine & Neon Pink
L.A. Colors - Atomic & Static Electricity
BYS - Pouty Purple
Collection 2000 - Teeny Bikini
Models Own - Golden Peach
Yes Love - Neon Green
Barry M - Unkown Red ( free with a magazine about a year ago)
I used two coats of White On first, so the colours would pop, and then starting doing the lines, some of the colours have two coats to make the colours really opaque. Majority of the lines aren't srtaight, and for some reason my "bad" hand had the straighter lines, but you can't really tell after I stamped them.

Hope you like :]

La Femme Pink & BYS Fools Paradise

I seriously struggle with titles of posts most of the time unless it's something obvious or I'm slightly inspired, does any one else have that problem?

I picked this up a couple weeks back. This is such a great polish, unfortunately the name had rubbed off (or was never on there) so I'm just gonna call it pink creme. Little bit of a boring mani today, but I'd never used this Bundle Monster image before :]

Base Coat: Nail RX - Stuck On You
Base Colour: La Femme - Pink Creme
Stamp Colour: BYS - Fools Paradise
Plate: Bundle Monster - BM203
Top Coat: China Glaze - No Chip Top Coat

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!

Base Coat: CND - Stickey
Base Colour: Models Own - Utopia
Stamp Colours: N.Y.C. - Foil'er Up & Niagra Foils
Plate: Konad - M70

Purple Plum Swatch

The weather was pap yesterday so I didn't play too much with my nails. However, this should be the last swatch for a little bit and there'll be more nail art coming :]

Matalan - G - Purple Plum
On the first coat of this I didn't think it would ever get opaque. This is three medium coats, no top coat.

Accessorize Aztec

Ah, I can not describe how much I loved wearing this; and I think for a goooood while it'll be on my tootsies. However, Aztec's really hard to photograph, trying to capture all the different colours it flashes, so here's a few pics :]



With Flash
Three thin coats, no top coat.
