What's on my nails today?

Hi everyone!


I guess 2017 wasn't quite happy with the speed it was zooming towards the end, so it decided to step on the pedal and went into overdrive. Oh, alright, so December is always extremely busy for my family as there are no less than 5 birthdays that can't be skipped, a children's holiday that loving aunts and uncles are supposed to attend as well, and of course Christmas with all its preparations and last but not least New Year (although technically that's in January but of course everything for the party has to be done in December). Throw in a computer that decides it can't keep up with the pace so it simply shuts down and some last minutes rush jobs at work and you can picture my life for the last three weeks. But I'm not complaining though, because I love this time of year, craziness included :) Anyway, at the moment four birthdays (including my own ;) are in the past, all the shopping and planning etc. for Christmas is done, my computer is completely reinstalled and running faster than ever and I even managed to catch up on reading blogs so I decided to show you what has been on my nails these last weeks (and I hope to do a second post with a really special manicure after this one, no promises though!)

Hi everyone!


As the weather forecast predicted sunshine (and lots of it) and the PPSA Nail Challenge called for pink I just had to go for pink and holo.

Hi everyone!


Today is the first really hot, sunny day over here (27 degrees C) so that means one thing... HOLO!! And as the second challenge for the PPSA Nail Challenge is red, it means a red holo :)

Hi everyone!


When I saw this manicure by Emily of Mani-ac, I just knew I had to recreate it some time... and that time came a lot sooner than expected as we had a few days of cold but sunny weather and of course sunshine screams for holos. I chose purple instead of blue though :)

Hi everyone!


I couldn't decide what polish to try first: Liquid Sky Lacquer Glass Slippers (a lovely baby blue holo) or Emily's Sky is Always Blue (a beautiful deep blue holo)... so I used them both in one manicure.

My first surprise: Glass Slippers is a textured polish!
My second surprise: Emily's Sky is a jelly!

This is what I ended up with:

Hi everyone!


I was not too big on brown nail polish, but this one came as a gift from Singapore and how can one resist a polish called Chocolate Obsession?

Liquid Sky Lacquer Chocolate Obsession is a wonderful chocolate brown holographic one-coater...
Yes, you read that right: I needed just one coat to get complete coverage!
