Yes Love

Hi there!

Ovih se dana osjećam poput miša nasred oceana... udobno smještena u orahovoj ljusci. Zato me u virtualnom svijetu nema onoliko koliko bih htjela. I zato večeras ide ultra kratki post s fotkicama jednog slatkiša, sjetila sam ga se kad sam izišla van na vrelo sunce. Fotke su doduše nastale prošle godine u listopadu, ali koga briga.

Recently I don't have enough 'me' time, and that's the reason why I'm away from this blog. But now I'm here, with a short post and eye candy which reminded me of hot sunny day, like we had it here today. These photos were made last year, in October, but who cares.

Highlight of my Summer is wearing Mustache

Hi there!

Is this highlight of my summer or what!?

Možda je ovo zbilja vrhunac mog ljeta !?

Matching Manicure Sunday #26 - Vintage Manicure

Hi there!

I thought of skipping this round, because I woke up this morning with horrifying headache . The sunny day outside, coffee, not even the pills... nothing helped, nothing worked. But instead of giving up, I sit down at my polishing desk, start to thinking which polishes I could use, and what to do. So I just unplugged myself from the world. After maybe an hour, when my manicure was done, I realized that my headache is gone too . Who said nail art isn't good for nothing !?

Mislila sam da ću preskočiti ovu rundu jer sam se jutros probudila s užasnom glavoboljom . Krasan sunčan dan, kavica, tuširanje, čak ni tableta... ništa nije pomoglo. Ali umjesto da odustanem, ipak sam sjela za svoj stolić za lakiranje, i pokušavala smisliti što da napravim, koje lakove da upotrijebim. I tako sam se sasvim isključila od svijeta. Nakon nekih sat vremena, kad je manikura bila gotova, shvatila sam da je i glavobolja otišla . Pa nek' mi netko kaže da nail art nije ni za što !

So Classy meets Debby

Hi there!

I stopped by just to show you the polishes that I wear as base colors in two last manicures. 

Evo mene tek da Vam pokažem lakiće koje sam iskoristila kao osnovne boje u dvije posljednje manikure. 

A bit of sponging, a bit of stamping

Hi there!

This gorgeousness is Eveline 808 from 'miniMAX' line, lovely greenish pastel color. On pics you see two coats, no topcoat. Pictures were taken 24 hours after I applied the polish, even with all the things I've done it looks perfect! It's well pigmented, drying time is pretty decent, the brush won't give you any problems... great polish indeed. This afternoon I had some free time so I sit and played with my polishes. First I sponged a bit of Eveline 810 from the same line across the middle of my nails, then added some stamping, with fauxnad plate m78 bought on Born Pretty Store site quite some time ago, and Pastel 74 nail polish. Here is the final result, which I absolutely love:

Ova krasota je Eveline 808 iz 'miniMAX' linije, krasna pastelna zelena bojica. Na fotkama su dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Fotke su snimljene 24 sata nakon što sam nalakirala nokte, i uz sve ono što sam za to vrijeme radila lak još izgleda savršeno! Dobro je pigmentiran, vrijeme sušenja je skroz pristojno, četkica vam sigurno neće praviti probleme... ma super lakec! Poslijepodne sam uhvatila vremena za sebe pa sam sjela za stolić s lakovima. Prvo sam spužvicom preko sredine noktiju dodala malo Eveline 810 iz iste linije, a onda još i pečatirala s fauxnad pločicom m78, koju sam prije prilično vremena kupila na Born Pretty Store situ, i Pastel lakom #74. Evo konačnog rezultata koji se meni jako svidio.

What do you think?

Što vi kažete?

Thanks for stopping by, Žana 

p.s. here's the reason why I keep myself away from polishes, this is the thermometer above my desk with polishes

p.s. evo razloga zbog kojeg baš i nemam volje lakirati nokte, ovo čudo je poviše mog stolića s lakovima

For Mare

Hi my friends!

Yey, I finally painted my nails, and I just realized how much I miss it . My nails really needed a break, they peeled and split so much, it was terrible. I used Eveline 8in 1 total action... and I really don't know what to say about it, I need to wait until this split ends grow up to tell if there's any result or benefit from it. 

But, let's move on on a nicer themes. Recently, I won awesome giveaway at Mare's blog, I showed you the prize here. She challenged me to do some manicure in colors matching the prize. So, this is my answer:

Juhuuuu, konačno sam nalakirala nokte, i shvatila kako mi je to strašno nedostajalo . Moji su nokti očajnički trebali predah, toliko su se listali da su se doslovno nestajali. Koristila sam Evelin 8u 1 total action... ne znam što da vam kažem, sačekat ću da izlistani vrhovi izrastu pa da vidimo ima li rezultata i ikakve koristi od njega. 

Nego, idemo mi na vedrije teme. Nedavno sam dobila nagradu na Marinom blogu, a nagradu sam pokazala ovdje. Ona me izazvala da napravim manikuru koja se slaže s dobitkom. E pa, evo mog odgovora:

                 

I used the watercolors technique, I found it very amusing and easy to do. If you want to try it yourself, you can see how it's done on The Polished Mommy's blog.   

So Mare, do you like it, does it match my cute vanity case? How about the rest of you, what do you think?

Poslužila sam se tehnikom vodenih bojica, baš mi je zabavna i prilično laka za napraviti. Ako se i sami želite okušati u njoj, pogledajte kako je to napravila  The Polished Mommy.

Mare moja, sviđa li ti se, slaže li se s mojim neseserićem? A što ostatak vas misli o izazovu, savladan ili ne?

Till the next polishing... love, Žana

This is it! Is it too much? I don't think so, some of these are going to be rearrange and get new owners, some of these can't be wear on its own... Now I know I don't need to get any polish I see, I'm more picky at what I want. And I still want so many of it! 
To vam je to! Previše? Ne bih rekla, neki od ovih će dobiti nove vlasnike, neki se niti ne mogu nositi samostalno... Sad znam da ne moram imati baš svaki lak koji vidim, izbirljiva sam. Ali još uvijek ih želim tako mnogo!


Till we meet again... love, Žana

It's Rambo No. 5

Hi my friends!

This is a post about subtle stamping, fauxnad and a brand new polish . First, let me introduce you with the main character - mr. polish - It's Rambo No. 5 by Catrice! Don't you just love the names of the Catrice polishes? I'm not sure if many of you will agree with me when I say how beautiful color it is, but I like it... you judge for yourself.

Ovo je post o diskretnom stampingu, fauxnadu i novom laku za nokte . Za početak, dajte da vam predstavim glavni lik - gdin. lak - It's Rambo No. 5 od Catricea! Imena njihovih lakova jednostavno morate voljeti! Nisam sigurna hoće li se mnoge od vas složiti sa mnom, ali meni je ova boja super, baš mi se sviđa... a vi prosudite za sebe. 

First picture taken in the shade, the second one in the sun. Two coats, no topcoat.
Now comes the subtle stamping...

Prva slika iz sjene, druga sa sunca. Dva sloja, bez nadlaka. 

A sad da vidimo i taj diskretni stamping...

Again, first picture taken in the shade, the second one in the sun. I used nail polish #74 by Pastel and fauxnad image plate in #64 by Bornprettystore. I love this design. What do you think about it?
Opet, prva fotka iz sjene, druga sa sunca. Za stamping sam koristila lak #74 od Pastela i fauxnad pločicu #64 od Bornprettystore. Dizajn mi je predobar, što vi mislite o njemu?

Till we meet again... love, Žana
