Lucy's Stash

Hello lovelies,

I've put together this post to show you the dress I wore for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards and the nails I did to complement it. The dress is Jasper Conran from Debenhams and it is just the most gorgeous black and white dress I've ever worn.

Black & White Dress Inspired Nail Art from Cosmopolitan Blog Awards

For these nails I've used OPI Alpine Snow, A England Camelot and black and white acrylic paint. I can't believe how many compliments I got on them, some people didn't even believe that I've hand painted them :)

Hope you like them and the report on the Awards is coming next! Have a nice weekend!

Hello lovelies,

I've decided to join the Pink Fridays for October and show my support to Breast Cancer Awareness month. Today I'll be sporting Illamasqua Raindrops which I wanted from the first day I've seen the swatches and I finally bought this little beauty. Unfortunately for me it doesn't really go with my skin tone.

Pink Friday with Illamasqua Pink Raindrops - Breast Cancer Awareness month

Pink Raindrops - pale pink base filled with glass flecks and subtle fuchsia shimmer. By itself the Pink Raindrops is a very pretty pale pink polish but it's the chunky glass flecks that make it unique. It has a bit funky formula - quite thick but still manageable. When I was applying the polish it was quite gritty because of the fleck but after a whie they levelled. I still had to apply a thick topcoat. I've applied two coats and the drying time was average.

I hope you can check out more Pink Friday posts by other nail bloggers below:
