What's on my nails today?

Hi everyone!


I know, I'm late... but I still wanted to show off my manicure for the Grey + Blue prompt that was actually due last week. I struggled a bit as I wanted to do something with pale grey and dark blue and it was only when I spotted a really special gray polish that everything came together with this result:

Hi everyone!


It's the last Friday of the month (even though it feels like February has just started ;) so that means it's time for the Friday Triad to show what we did to with the inspiration one of us picked. This month it was Michelle's turn and she chose a gorgeous manicure by Paulina from Paulina's Passions. I loved the manicure the moment I saw it and I could see a million ways to do this myself... and then I snapped my middle nail and turned my left hand into nubbies... After talking to Michelle and Juanita I decided to go ahead and put my right hand in the spot light, but I guess she's still a bit shy so the pose isn't quite what I wanted it to be. Unfortunately it's way past my bed time (again) so no more retries... May I present my version of Paulina's manicure:

Hi everyone!


At just about the latest possible moment I've managed to carve out a few moments for a quick post to show the manicure I did for the seventh prompt of the 52 Week Nail Art Challenge: Valentine's Day. I actually wore this manicure during the lovely dinner my husband treated me to but again, as usual since I started this new assignment at work, I haven't had the time to write a post. But since pictures are patient, these were waiting on my camera for me to crop them and show them off :)


As you can see no pinks for me but there are hearts and roses (well, one rose) and my Valentine really liked them which was good enough for me!

Hi everyone!


The week is almost at an end but I managed to find a tiny bit of time to show off the manicure I did for the sixth challenge: leaves.

Hi everyone!


The good news is that this week I didn't have to work until way past my bedtime. Instead I had to start at 6:00 AM... so I'm still in debate which week was worse ;) But I did manage to find some time to do the next prompt for the 52 Week Nail Art Challenge: Holographic.

Anyone who has been to this blog before knows I love holographic polishes. I absolute love those sparkly, grabby-hands-inducing bottles with their rainbows when the light hits them, so I have plenty of them which makes picking a polish a challenge, to say the least ;) So I decided to go for two, one with large holographic glitters and the other with the velvet-y, glow-from-within, scattered holo finish that I absolutely adore. Combined with some white and black this is the result:
