I’m back to using the rose decal set for my nails I used not too long ago (here and here). It’s just so pretty, but there is definitely something wrong with the quality since the previous manicures chipped so quickly on me. Still, I can’t stay away from the prettiness for too long and I’ll…
Black Patterns: Black Pattern over Pink Shimmer Nails
I realized I haven’t done a truly shimmery manicure for a while and decided to create one where I would let the shimmer shine (as you can see, I have such a varied vocabulary). Of course just shiny shimmer wasn’t interesting enough and there are few patterns that can work well over such a bright…
Balance: Floral French and Gold Birdcage Manicure
I took advantage of the fact that I don’t need to type long reports for a little while to grow my nails longer than usual. I’m still uncertain about whether I like the look of longer nails on myself and they’re definitely a little less comfortable than shorter ones but I have to say that…
Snap Judgments: Cupcake Shimmery White Nails
I used a white with a shimmery clear polish as a background for these cupcake decals to make them really pop. I originally didn’t like this manicure, but it sort of grew on me over the first few days. I make it a rule not to judge things too quickly as first impressions can often…

I was a bit tired of more complicated designs that take longer to plan and apply. I remembered seeing something similar on Pinterest a while ago and decided to take my cue from that design when I found the remainder of the fruit decals I used here on my desk under a book (I thought I…
Florals and Crystals: Black Floral French Nails with Glass Volcano Colored Crystals
After the recent red rhinestone manicure I did here, I remembered how much I like the idea of rhinestones or crystals on my nails and decided to pull them out more often from now on. I’m not sure if you guys noticed, but I have phases where I’ll wear similar outfits and do similar nail…
How to 3D Nail Art: Watermelon and Red Rhinestone Nails
It’s been a while since I added rhinestones or glitter or any 3D elements to my nails. To be honest, these are a bit of a pain to remove and definitely a pain to secure. Really, the only way to secure them properly is with special nail glue (feels more like superglue). Sometimes I’ll still…
