How do I spice up a soft shade?

Hello ladies!

Todays post features a question I had in mind for a while. How do I spice up a soft shade but kind of office-friendly?

Well, of course theres a jelly sandwich, a bit of glitter on the tips or good old accent nail. Ive been there before and I dont want my nails to be boring so I came up with this:

I picked a soft shade as my base, which is H&M Mon Amie. I wanted my mani to be as little boring as possible so I added colorful stamping. For the stamping I picked this cute image from Bundle Monster plate BM-309. Colors of the stamps are, from lightest to darkest: Accessorize Jewel (golden metallic), Maybelline NY 465 (copper metallic) and H&M Fabulous Nails Honey (burgundy red metallic).

Im not entirely sure of this mani is so office-friendly but I know I would wear it anyways :) Would you?

Thank you for stopping by! :) xx

Fall colored animal print? Yes, please!

Hey guys!

Today I have fall colored animal print to show you :) I had bunch of polishes lying around on my table and I came up with this design:

I used OPI Passion as my base, Jewel by Accessorize and Fabulous Nails Honey by H&M for the print.

I just loved how it turned out! Simple, bold and pretty fall manicure.

And now for the bonus, check out how beautifully this thing shines in direct sunlight:

I hope you liked it! I know I did :)

Pink Spice from Accessorize

The weather was great so I decided its time for the first of my newly bought Accessorize nail polishes. Since the sun always takes out the best of people I thought it would also apply to nail polishes. In the last post I said I tried to capture their real shine and failed miserably at it but today I succeeded! Sun is shining, I had a great company with me, barbecue, drinks and of course my mani ;D Enough of me, lets get to the polish.

I made the picture on purpose to show you how gorgeously this polish changes shade and the only way to capture it in its full glory was to "unfocus" the camera. So here it is :)

The formula was.. weird. Not too runny, not too thick but after all hard to apply evenly onto the nail. Too bad Pink Spice is one of those 3 coaters but I still loved the effect. Some places of my nails were not quite  "deep with the color" so I did put 4rd coat and it came out pretty good! Even after those 4 coats there was no trouble with drying, polish didnt get any air bubbles, bumps or whatever you want to call them. Here is how the polish looks at evening under lamp light or in the shadow outside:

Its very glittery and the depth of the pink is just hypnotizing :) The best thing with this polish is that with different angles of sunlight it changes color! From almost gold, orange through copper to this deep raspberry shimmer that is really hard to capture on the picture. Just imagine how much it shine and how yummy it looks! :D Here is some pictures outside, in direct sunlight:

That was lots of pictures but I really wanted to show off Pink Spice cause its.. spicy! 

The things I found a bit annoying are:

*  you need to be very careful while applying this polish, really easy to get "bold spots" on the nails

* 3 or more coats to get full opacity

Besides those the polish is pretty awesome but what do you think?

Accessorize Nail Polish

Look what I found! Those little gems screamed to me right from the stores display and I just couldnt resist! How could I leave those little precious polishes unwanted? ( Look what a nail polish can do to a person :D ) Un-bought more likely but is that even a word? Im not sure but it can be my made-up word from now on! I specially adore Accessorize store for its really affordable prices and awesome items I can get there :)

Here without a flash in kind of bad light ^^

Here with flash.

I just cant wait to make swatches, I kind of fell in love with all of them *blushes* Each one is different so stay tuned for those lovely swatches.. I mean.. I hope they turn out to be lovely ;D 

I tried to capture their little shimmer shine but I officially failed so I will just make decent pictures with each swatch I make. What do u think about these so far?
