Tommy G no.413 Swatches.

I've been looking for a khaki colored nail polish when I finally spotted one by one of my favorite brands, Tommy G. It's a part of their Fall-Winter collection which I practically want to buy them all right now.

I really like khaki as a Fall color as an alternative to the very dark polishes that we always see. It's awesome for Fall/Winter, goes practically with everything and has a classy feel to it. I topped my ring fingers with a touch of gold glitter for a little something.

Would you wear khaki nail polish? Kisses Dolls!

NOTD: Baby Pink and Silver Glitter.

Nails of the day! Both NOTD and FOTD (Face of the Day) are 2 new features on my blog and are being introduced today :)

I really love this mani cause it's simple, sparkly, cute and of course PINK! Any light/baby pink will do (2 coats) and any silver glitter will do (1 coat). I used a custom made pink polish and Forever21's Silver Glitter polish. Finish off with a coat of clear polish for that extra shine and you're done!

Nail Tip: I like to refresh my coat top maybe 2 times during the days to follow to make my mani last.

Sparkly Nautical Inspired Nails.






How I did it

♥ For the gold nails:

First I applied one coat of the Forever21 Gold Glitter polish and immediately dipped my nail in the loose gold glitter (any glitter will do, the glitter I used is actually used for art crafts. Just make sure it's non-toxic).
Do one nail one by one and coat them in the glitter. Let them settle in and dry and they apply a couple of coats of clear top coat in order for the surface to smooth out and so it doesn't snatch on your clothes or come apart.

♥ For the blue and red nails:

I used two coats of  Avon Colour Last Plus in 306 and L.A Girls Flare in Cherry respectably. Any blue or red will do. When both coats had dried I took a thin nail brush and made stripes with YSL in no.38. The polish was not as white as I wanted it to be and that's why the stripes are so soft, but I was too lazy to go upstairs to my room and find another white polish. Before the stripes dried I apply white and silver stars for them to stick on (forgot to photograph the stars, any kind of star for nail art will do). In between the stripes I applied the Forever21 Silver Glitter polish for extra sparkle.
Once all of that dries, 2 coats of top coat and your done!

Enjoy your sparkly nautical nails Dolls! ♥
