Glitter Polka Dots

Good evening lovelies

Many of you will know that one of my favourite colour combinations is green and pink. I turn to it time and time again and never tire of it.. Tonight is no exception :-)

Mint Gold Polka Dots

Good evening lovelies

How has your week been so far? Mine has flown by as its busy (but in a good way) at work. Tonight myself and the little sis are at Mums for tea. Its been nice today knowing that I could look forward to being cooked for and that I also get a chance to catch up on proper girly gossip time with Mum and Sis.

Here is my final look for Minty Maggie

Sequins and Polka Dot Nails

Happy Friday!

I am so looking forward to this weekend... Yes I know I always say that but that's because I always am. I love spending quality time with loved ones and this weekend will be no exception. Mr LiPP is planning a nice meal for us tonight so I can just relax with my feet up and really unwind after a long week :-)

Here is how I wore the beautifully textured Eva...

Pink, Green and Gold nails

Good evening lovelies

Tonight I am showing you a manicure I designed to co-ordinate with a new dress and bag I wore over the weekend. Any regular followers will know that I am a sucker for any combination of pink and green so when I wore my brightest of bright green new dress for a night out I just knew I would reach for my favourite bright pink clutch :-)

Polka Dots and Bows: Peach nails

Happy Friday lovelies

I have decided that this weekend calls for some bright and fun nail art. As I was looking through my ever growing pile of new polishes to swatch I was drawn to this pretty peach from Avon. Although it is quite a pale pastel shade I knew it would make a great base for some eye popping art.

Dotty About Spots

Time for something a little different. For this mani there is no stamping, no Gold or Silver Foil and no sparkly gems. I used a gorgeous blurple (yes that really is a colour in the nail world - meaning bluey purple) from Barry M called Indigo. One of my girlfriends was sporting this particular shade at a recent Hen Do so I just knew it was time to give it a go myself.

It really is a lovely colour and much more flattering than I thought it might be.

I decided to add some simple polka dots using my dotting tool and two contrasting shades from Barry M - Bright Red and Bright Purple. It is hard to see on the pictures as my new NYC top coat has made my nails look like super shiny glass but I also added some Red and Magenta Glitter spots for a little bit of contrast.

In order to make these dots really stand out against the Indigo base I first of all created them using Barry M Matt White as you can see below. I allowed the White to dry and then dotted over the top with Bright Red and Bright Purple.

Pretty little bottle shot

Are you dotty about spots? Such a simple but effective idea and as the colour combinations are endless this is a design I can come back to again and again.
