Lavender Diamonds

Hi!
This mani is a third or fourth take on geometric diamonds mani, this time I chose purple tones. I love how easy yet effective this design is! I have a tutorial right here, so you can give it a try yourself.

More To Explore

Hi!
Today I'll be showing you a design I wore on my birthday (which was in April, yes, I'm late with this :D). I chose my new favourite polish colour: China Glaze More To Explore. I'm not a fan of the formula, really, it's uneasy to work with. But the colour! Oh, I love it.

Spring Roses

Hello!
The other day I remembered I love florals. I mean, I love florals on nails. And of course on clothes, but that's another story (rather another obsession :D). My colour choice was inspired by this photo I saw over at The Illustrated Nail's Instagram - I couldn't resist using that floral combo.
I have a tutorial right here for my roses from earlier in case you were interested :).

Pastel Abstraction

Hello!
So in case it wasn't obvious: I'm terribly behind with posting. The design I'll be showing you today is from March. Yes, that's right.
I have nubbins here, since this is the nail art I wore for a skiing trip and that needs to be comfortable. For travelling I like to have nude base a colours that go with any clothes (because I have to match, it's like a disorder).

Bright Watercolor

Hello!
Today's design is one of those I paint out of nothing, no plan. I thought I would paint a delicate pattern of some sort, but I ended up with abstract watercolour.

Road Trip Nail Art & China Glaze Swatches

press sample

Hey there!
Today is a first. First swatch post! I didn't want to do a post with swatches only, so I took some inspiration and created new nail design for this collection I was swatching.
It was China Glaze Road Trip, which has been around for few months already, but for some reason it came to local (=Czech) distributors just about now. I got 6 shades of total 12 of the collection.
My road trip nail art was inspired by a top I bought on my last trip. I wanted to go detailed and really stick with the fabric pattern but I failed there and went with whatever-comes-to-my-mind tribal.

Keep reading for my first swatches and more nail art!

Matching Lace

Hello!
I'm feeling ill these days and that's the perfect time to dream and remember past cheerful days.
It was a month ago when we had a Venice-carnival-themed school ball. Nobody really took the carnival thing very seriously, but a lot of people brought masks - I was one of them. When I was thinking of my nail design for this event I was inspired by my dress and my mask, that I also decorated myself.

Keep reading for the mask and the dress ;)

Distressed Wood

Hi!
I needed something subtle and classy for a formal event. I was thinking black and white, but I ended up with these, wood with ikat-ish chevron.

Flourish

Hey!
Sun is back! Or at least here it is :). So today I'm posting a fresh spring-ish mani I did a while ago and almost forgot to post.
It was inspired by vector flourish pictures and nature. I originally wanted to add there some flowers too, but I liked it as simple as it was just with the green swirls.

Retro Chic (+tutorial)

Hey guys!
I have a tutorial for you today :). I was looking forward to posting this but I didn't get to do it until now. This design was somehow inspired by Boom Nails, who did several similar designs earlier. I took pictures during the process so I have a tutorial for you below and a short review of the base polish: Nubar InstaChic.
