Navy and Rose Gold:)

So I was looking at some nautical inspired manis on Pinterest this am and noticed lots of navy white and gold:) So I figured I would do a nautical mani but then I saw China Glaze's Meet Me at the Mirage, a gorgeous Rose Gold sitting on my mani table and I couldn't resist!!! So instead of nautical I went with chevrons:) Chevrons are done with a Kiss stencil, and freehand lining:)  Now the Navy I used is Zoya Ryan, I am not happy with this selection.... I think this is a bit too dark for the look I had in mind, I think Zoya Sailor would have been a better choice:( Just a little too much contrast!

What do you think too much contrast??? or just right???

Too Cute-icle:) Brand New Brand

OHHH I am soooo excited to be able to show you guys these polishes!!!! My Super sweet friend Jess has finally opened her shop Too Cute-icle :) Jess  has been working on this line for months perfecting and tweaking each polish to be exactly what she wants, and they are fabulous!!!!  First up is Mama's Girl:)

 Mama's Girl is glitter infusion of light blue, dark blue, and medium green micro glitters, with a smattering of larger dark blue and green hex and square glitters in a clear base.  This polish is designed to be a layering polish, and is perfect!!!!  I have put 2 thin coats over Essie Good as Gold and ta-da:)

 In a moment of pure brilliance I decided to add a Matte top coat and WOW, look at the fabulousness!!!!  This polish had excellent drying time, no fishing required and it is just gorgeous!!!!

 

 Next up is Frosty the Penguin. Frosty is a mix of light blue glitter of all sizes with a splash of small light copper glitters, all suspended in a clear base:) This polish is so gorgeous I can't even describe!!!  So much better IRL!!!! 

 I have put 2 thin coats of Frosty over Sally Hansen Complete Manicure in Petrol.  This Mani got me sooo many compliments, it is just delicate and sparkly and so in the spirit of the season!!!!

 

Now Today is the Grand Opening of Jess's Etsy Store Too Cute-icle and you can get these or any other in her debut collection for  $7 or grab a mini for $3.  You will not be disappointed!!!! and don't forget to show the L♥VE on Facebook too!!!!

Are you a Diva or a Designer Part 2

So Are you a Diva or a Designer??? Well let's look at Zoya's Fall collection and you can tell me:) Part 2

Daul is described as a Magic Violet foil sparkle metallic, but she is soo much more. She is gold and purple perfection in a polish.

Fall wouldn't be complete with out Monica,  she is a Dark Mulberry Purple creme.  Monica is rich and super pigmented, so careful with her or she will leave her mark on your cuticles. 

Now Check out Daul with Monica... a match made in Polish Heaven!!!!

And every girl needs Toni, a designer collection polish to match her wine:)  She will stain you big time if you are not SUPER CAREFUL! Be even then the richness of her dark maroon red creme finish makes her worth the risk.

Now what can I say about Natty from the Designer Collection. Natty reminds me of thunderheads rolling in. He is a calming and relaxing smoked navy blue creme. But he will leave his mark if you aren't careful.

So far I am more Designer than Diva:) How about you???
