NOTD - Jubilee Nails

Hey Lovelies!

Today I am wearing a Jubilee inspired manicure! If you don't live in the UK then you are perhaps not aware that it is the Queen's 60th Jubilee celebrations!

For this mani I have painted my index and ring finger with 2 coats of Nails Inc's "Baker Street" as the blue base colour. For all other nails I used 2 coats of Nails Inc's "Victoria & Albert" as the red base colour. On all fingers except the ring finger I did white freehand polka dots using OPI's "Alpine Snow". On my ring fingers I used OPI's "Alpine Snow for the white and Nails Inc's "Victoria & Albert" for the red crosses to create a UNION JACK flag.

This weekends celebrations has brought a lot of people together and is very British and I am loving my mani as my way of joining in the fun!

NOTD - Essie Raspberry Polka Dot Manicure

Hey Lovelies!

Today I am wearing Essie's "Raspberry" which is deep pink/red creme polish. Raspberry is very opaque and I could have got away with one coat but used two for the photos below. The formula was like butter and the colour is very pretty!

I wanted to get out the stamping plates again and used the polka dot design on Cheeky plate CH6. The dots are very close together and I like this a lot as it would take forever to achieve by freehand! I used Konad White polish for the stamping and am really pleased with the outcome! I got so many compliments on my nails!
