I'm Rocking This Leopard....Hard!

Hey everyone! 

I've got another great Fall mani today...

have I mentioned that I adore Fall?

Stepping away from the Halloween themes

for a moment, I can never resist a cute animal print mani!

Excuse my poor little nubbins, 

my hands take so much abuse that my nails have

been breaking like crazy!

But hey, still no reason not to rock out a cute mani, right?

 

My base color is Essie's School Of Hard Rocks

the leopard spots are Milani's Key West

I created the print using Sinful Colors Nail Art Striper in Black 

and topped it off with a coat of Out The Door top coat

I really could kick myself, as I got a little too eager to finish off

the look and placed the top coat too quickly on my pinky...

the result, a sweet little smudge-fest :/

Lesson Learned.

But the rest of it turned out killer, and I'll probably end of re-doing the pinky. 

 

I am obsessing over School Of Hard Rocks, this color is just SO me.

And the color combo is wicked, 

I love it so much that I know I'm going to use it again on

some sort of different nail art.

 

What new shades are you obsessing with this Fall?

 

Saran Wrap Nails

Today I have Saran wrap nails!

This creative and simply technique 

is hugely popular, but believe it or not,

this is my first time trying it out!

I decided to go with one of my favorite 

color combinations, brown & turquoise.

I started with Sinful Colors in Nirvana, 

a delicious milk chocolate brown cream.

While waiting for it to dry, I tore up small pieces of Saran

wrap and crumpled them up.

I topped it off with China Glaze in Aquadelic,

one of the best minty turquoise creams out there in my opinion.

While its freshly wet, I took a piece of the crumpled

Saran wrapand lightly dabbed it onto my nail, creating an

almost soft crackle finish. 

LOVE IT!

Here's the end result.

 

Super cute and EASY!

Have you tried Saran wrap nails yet?

What kind of color combinations have you tried? 

Autumn Dotticure

YAY!

My first "Autumn" mani of the season.

If anyone knows me, they are well aware of

my massive love for not only Autumn,

but for Halloween!

So I'm excited to share the first official 

Autumn themed mani.

Taking a cue from A Girl and Her Polish, 

and her gorgeous dotticure seen here, 

I imitated her same look, but just changed up the colors.

My base is NYX Girls polish in - Perfect Gray

Then using assorted sized dotting tools, I made the dots 

using these colors

Sinful Colors in - Snow Me White

Sally Hansen, Xtreme Wear in - Sun Kissed

Wet & Wild, Wild Shine in - Black Creme

A simple look, but I love it all the same!

 

Spring Green Gradient

There is something so refreshing about Green nail polish,

I don't know what it is, but I've got more Greens

in my collection than any other shade. 

He is a super Springy Green gradient that 

I'm currently wearing & absolutely loving.

I used 3 different shades:

Sinful Colors in Innocent as the base

Then used a combo of

Maybelline Express Finish in Go-Getter Green

and

ORLY in Fresh

to create the gradient

Easter Sunday Nails

An understated look, perfect for Church on Easter Sunday, this is a marbleized french tip using pastels. Unfortunately I couldn't get my camera to quite capture the marble, but it's much brighter and crisper in person.
