PCFSC: #5; Out of Season Colour

Finally, I can use my Secret Valentines Nail Mail polishes from Stella. I mean I could have used it beforehand but I really wanted to save it for something special or the right season; I received these in Summer and now it's closing in on Autumn.

I thought these are prefect together because of their name and effects - it looks like a frozen berry or winter snow, definitely "Out of Season" and nothing close to Spring.

Day Twenty-Six: Inspired by a Pattern

Today's challenge is quite vague - I had no idea what I wanted to do since there is a lot of "Patterns" in the world since patterns just means anything that repeats and/or occur frequently. I decided to do my "google, close my eyes and point to one" option. When I opened my eyes, I saw a very cute floral pattern that belonged to a website design help site with a list of free seamless backgrounds.

Isn't that just cute and prefect for spring? (Even though it's going to be fall here soon, haha). 

Here's my attempt on this floral pattern!

Day Twenty-Five: Inspired by Fashion

Today's nails are inspired by Nicki Minaj's tights from the Victoria Secret runway where Orlando Bloom proudly cheered for his wife, Miranda Kerr. Nicki Minaj is very famous for her quirky outfits but this one stood out the most for me.. it's soo bold and brightly coloured.

I didn't notice that there was a contest that is being held by O.P.I for the release of the Nicki Minaj Collection when I was painting until I started seeing a huge hoard of them being posted on everyone's blog. You can look at the entries here and I'm so sorry that this is another Nicki inspired manicure - I bet you're sick of seeing them! 

Day Four : Green Nails

Green is my favourite colour... and so when this concept showed up for the 31 Day Nail Art Challenge, I didn't know which of my greens to use since I had so many favourites. I ended up creating a splatter manicure using those greens and it well created a pretty cute NOTD with an interesting texture underneath all the coats of topcoats.

This was the first time that I've used this nail art technique and let me tell you... it's rather disgusting sucking the polish into the straw (I thought it was done in the same method as splattering with paint when we were in kindergarten) and I don't think that you're meant to do that anyways. In the end I found a straw that was small enough to fit in the polish hole but big enough to grab on some polish as it was placed in the bottle and blew that onto my nails. It look a couple of tries per finger because I kept missing, ahahaha, and created a big mess over my hands and the tissue it was on but it's fun.
