OPI You're So Vain-illa Gets the Neon Treatment!

Heya Guys!

Happy Tuesday! Today I wanna show off something a bit on the softer/simpler side.  OPI You're So Vain-illa, from the recent Coca-Cola collection. This is a soft, yellowish beige colour, that although is somewhat close to OPI My Vampire is Buff, it is much warmer. I would say they are sisters, but certainly not the same.

I also couldn't resist, adding a Matte top coat to this, since I was dying to see how it would look. I really love it both ways, but I think I prefer the matte look a tad more.Which one do you like better!?

To get this look, I started with a base of You're so Vain-illa on all my fingers, once that was dry I stamped using Pueen  Encore plate SE01A in Mundo De Unas Neon Pink 29. The studs are from Born Pretty Store. The Matte top coat is OPI Matte Top Coat.As I said above, super simple, but I do love the end result!

You're So Vain-illa went on super smoothly, and only needed 2 coats to be opaque. I just love how creamy this is, it makes a great palate cleanser, or the perfect backdrop to nail art depending on your mood. I went a bit on both sides for this mani cause sometimes, we need a little simple nail art in our lives, and this fits the bill perfectly. It is simple and elegant, without being too plain Jane, the neon pink  really adds a nice bit of flavor.

Alright guys and gals, I think that covers it for today! I know, I am still wearing so many neons, you must be getting sick of them! Ha! I think I am trying to get my fix before fall officially sets in! Is anyone else trying to fit in all the neons they can before fall!? Or is that just me? Let me know! Till next time Kittens! <3

Manicure - Nubar Black Polka Dots over OPI Skull and Glossbones

So, my very first post! I feel like there is a lot of pressure to make a great  first impression, and I normally fall flat on my face when put on the spot, so this is a bit nerve racking for me! Although chances are no one will even see this, so I guess it doesn't really matter when you think about it! :P

  After some thought, I decided on something simple for my first post. I wanted to be loud and exciting, make a statement, make myself stand out, but that fear of falling flat on my face kept me thinking simple and safe.

  This is a manicure I wore a little while back. I think about a month or so ago, and although I am enjoying summer and neon's and everything bright and sunshine filled that comes with it. I did adore this manicure when I had it on. There was a simple elegance about it that I simply loved.  Plus as an added bonus it was SO simple to do!

  Now, the indoor photos were taken with my T3i,  however the outdoor ones were sadly snapped with my iphone camera, I apologize in advance for their less than stellar quality.

 First up, the indoor photos.

                                                     

Love the polka dots!

 Here are a couple of outdoor shots, with the trusty iPhone camera.

I love the matte effect with this look!

Okay, so there you have it! I hope I didn't disappoint or bore you all too badly!!  I promise to make my second post a bit more exciting. I love colour, especially bright loud obnoxious colours! 

 The polishes used to achieve this look were:
