What's on my nails today?

Hi everyone!


This month's inspiration for the Triad manicure was chosen by Juanita and she picked this one. It's my dusty chevrons manicure that I did back in November 2017! I won't bore you with the jumping up and down, the running around like crazy, the cheering, the shoving mobile phones under other people's noses to make sure they knew what had happened, because that totally didn't happen... or did it? ;)

Either way, I immediately knew I didn't want to change the overall design (speckled polish, chevrons, floral image) but as it's supposed to be almost summer now (not that the sun knows that but according to my calendar it's just around the corner) I decided to go for a bright color palette this time and what is brighter than neon, right?

Hi everyone!


While swatching Hema Living Coral I realized how much I actually like coral and peach colored nails. So of course I had to play a little with some more pretty polishes in that color range :)

Hi everyone,


last Saturday my husband brought home a little gift to cheer me up: a pretty coral polish called Living Coral. The brand is called Hema, which is a general warehouse chain in the Netherlands (branching out to other European countries) that sells just about anything you can think of (baby clothes, house hold appliances, food, etc.) and that has quite an extensive beauty line that includes dozens of nail polish colors. The quality varies... a lot! Some are fast drying one coaters, others are patchy and streaky and never seem to dry, so let's see in what category the latest addition to my stash falls.

Hi everyone,


nope, it's not the end of the month. It's a surprise manicure, coming from the finally decreasing chaos that has been our home for the last four months. But no complaining about kitchen renovations this time, I want to show you a manicure I did after a bottle of polish was returned to me (I didn't even remember lending it out, so here's to friends who remember stuff like that for me ;)
