31DC2013 Day 25: Inspired by Fashion

As I told you I'm back! Today I'm showing you my "Inspired by Fashion" design. What inspired me was the gorgeous Jennifer Lawrence and the way they dress her in the most amazing way every time she goes to an event. The dress I chose is an Alexander McQueen she wore for Catching Fire premiere in Madrid.


Here's my nail art trying to do some justice to this beautiful dress (I couldn't).


I used Color Club Cold Metal as my base color and white acrylic paint for the details. Then I used Color Club Matte-Ified to give it the matte finish.


In person the blue looked different, a little more royal blue but I just realized I don't own a royal blue!! And I actually went shopping for one but ended up buying China Glaze Crinkled Chrome collection... Oops!



Hope you liked this small and quick post, but as I said I'll be posting everyday until I finish this challenge! 


Love, Pam♥

31DC2013 Day 23: Inspired By A Movie

Heeeeey there glitter fellas! After a long holiday break I'm back! For this special occasion I chose a movie I just saw and I loved: Frozen.



I didn't really know how to represent Anna and Elsa, like I'm not very good at drawing faces so I went for the colors that symbolized them; and, of course, Olaf!


Elsa's hues are more icy and light blue shades and Anna's are warmer, and I just couldn't ignore that gorgeous royal blue/pink colorblock on her dress!


For my thumb and ring fingers I used Color Club Blue Heaven as my base color, then with acrylic paint I painted the snowflake and Olaf.
On my pinky I painted three coats of China Glaze Glitening Snow.


On my index and middle fingers I used China Glaze White On White as my base color then painted one coat of Color Club S'il Vous Plaît and finally with my striping brush I painted thin lines with Color Club Overboard, Color Club Best Dressed List and China Glaze Shower Together (index); and China Glaze For Audrey, Color Club Hydrangea Kiss and China Glaze Shower Together mixed with China Glaze White On White for a lighter shade of blue.


I'm sorry about not posting this week but I'm already doing my next nail art, so I'll see you sooner rather than later ;)
I hope you liked this Inspired By Frozen nail art, I know it's simple but I think it's cute. Btw, I'm sorry about my topcoat dragging the polish on my index:( Hate when that happens! Anyways, I'll see you soon! Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!! :D :D 

Love, Pam♥

31DC2013 Day 21: Inspired By A Color

Heeeeey there glitter loves! How's it going? It's been a whole long week, huh? I'm just posting this now because sadly my index nail broke terribly!! And it hurt even more! This happened last Saturday and until this Wednesday my nail stopped hurting, I cut my other nails (The Nailasaurus style) so they would match and I painted them, so yeah I'm sorry I'm just posting this now.
Alright, now after my sad sad story here's my "Inspired By A Color" nail art. This goes for coloooor RED. But like in festive, holiday-esque, Christmas-y red. I was inspired by Cranberry Splash from last year's China Glaze Holiday Joy Collection, which is a red I love to wear by itself of with nail art or on my toes.


The red is China Glaze Cranberry Splash, the green is Color Club Rule Breaker and the white is China Glaze White On White.


For the thumb, middle and ring fingers I used my striper brush and my next thinnest brush. First I created the thin red lines then the wider ones with two stokes of my thin brush, then I painted the green line above them with my striper brush.
For my index and pinky I used my thin brush and did a "star" design then at the edge of every line I added some V shaped details; finally I added some tiny dots with my brush.



I really loved this design. I think it's a perfect Christmas design and it's not so in-your-face-holiday. I also really liked rocking them on my tiny nails, it was the only thing that made me feel better about my shorties :c
I hope you liked it and I'm gonna be sooner than you think for another Inspired By/Christmas nail art.

Ps.: Am I the only one that this Inspired By A Color sounds a lot like Sesame Street's "Today was brought to you by coloooor RED and letter R!" lol

31DC2013 Day 12: Stripes!

Well, hello there glittery puppeeeeehs! Happy Saturday! Today I've got my stripes design for you. I had already done a stripes design for orange day and I actually didn't mean to do a design that was intended for a different day but it just happened andI forgot I had a stripes day. Anyways, I really liked this and I also enjoyed it because  of the lovely glitter polish I used here! I feel like it's kind of a mermaid-y look which is awesome!


The colors I used were China Glaze For Audrey (my fave blue ever) as my base color and China Glaze Water You Waiting For.


I simply painted my nails with two coats of For Audrey let it dry completely and then placed 6-7 pieces of striping tape in diagonal. I made sure it was stuck and the edges didn't come up and painted two fine coats of Water You Waiting For and immediately removed the tape with the help of some tweezers.


My neighbor liked it so much she asked me to do her nails just like mine, lol.
I hope you enjoyed this manicure and like itas much as I liked wearing it and feeling like a small part of me was meant to be mermaid-ian. Have a nice safe Saturday! See you next week;)

Love, Pam♥

Dot Dot Stripe Dot

Hello, magical unicorns!! Happy easter to everyone!!! :D I hope you all are having a great time:) I'm going on vacation tomorrow, yaaaay! Anyways, today I have a mani I really loved when I wore it, a lot of people complimented on it and I enjoyed a lot doing it. Here it is.


I used Color Club Catwalk Queen and Color Club What A Drag for this simple but cute nail art. On my left hand I freehanded some stripes on my index and pinky and I painted some polka dots using a large dotting tool.


Then on my right han I painted a simple polka dots pattern using a small and a large dotting tool.


I really loved this mani! I hope you like it as much as I did:) Sorry about the quality of my crappy camera. Have lots of fun this holiday!:) See you all gorgeous unicorns soon.

Love, Pam♥
