Hello lovelies,

 

I was going through my folder with manicures and it occured to me that I have A LOT of manicures that I never got to share with you! There are swatches and nail art designs and I though it would be a shame if they never got to be seen. So here is the first lot of nail art looks that I never shared:

 

1. Ledlighting & Stamping Nail Art

I've used Dance Legend All Or Nothing for base and then black stamping polish, Pueen Lace Blossom stamping plate and Dance Legend Aquarelle polishes in Picasso, Dali, Rafael, Sisley.

Those were just 10 out of many nail art manicures that I never published. Sometimes I had too much content and not enough time to write and publish the blog post or I didn't like the final look for some reason. As you can see, some of these manicures are crappy and not so great but they are few years old and it's nice to track my own progress in nail art.

 

What do you think? Which nail art mani do you like best?

 

It's also that time of the year again when blog awards accept nominations. It would mean the world to me if you'd fill out a short form and nominated my blog lucysstash.com for Best Beauty Influencer category in the Cosmopolitan Influencer Awards! Thank you so much x

 

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

 

 

Hello lovelies,

 

You and I have an exciting week ahead of us! Maria from So Nailicious has organised a second Nail Art Fashion Week and I'm one of the hosts! If you'd like to know more, check out the announcement post with all details and how to join!

 

The theme of today is Favorite fashion designer and I chose Emanuel Ungaro. I'm not a massive fashion fan and I don't follow designers unless it's for nail inspiration but I've seen some pretty awesome clothes from Emanuel Ungaro over the years. Well, this year at Paris Fashion Week, Emanuel Ungaro presented this amazing bold flowers piece and I knew instantly I want to recreate it for Nail Art Fashion Week! If you'd like to read more about this collection and see all the other clothes, visit Vogue.

This dress falls into category 'Fall 2016 Ready-to-wear' - what do you think of it? Pretty awesome, right? I love bold prints and I love a good nail art challenge so this one was perfect :)

 

For this nail design I've used one coat of Cirque Memento Mori, OPI Matte Top Coat, Seche Vite Top Coat, acrylic paints and nail art brushes (Pure Color #9 and Cotman watercolour brushes from local art store).

 

I've done matte version of this manicure and I like it so much more than the glossy one! It also triggered something and now I'm 'mattifying' every manicure :D
