Hello lovelies,

I'm still experimenting with the Shattered Stars polishes from the new Illamasqua Glamore collection and today I have a studded gradient design. I've heard that the Illamasqua girls were doing gradients with the polishes at the Illamasqua blogger event. I didn't see them but I got inspired by the idea and created this...

I have used Illamasqua Trilliant as a base colour and then using the nail polish brush with just a bit of polish I painted on the gradient tips using Marquise. As the last step I've applied studs from Born Pretty Store (you can use LUHH10 discount code).

 

If you've missed a review of the new Illamasqua polishes, check it out here. I've also done another textured nail art with Marquise here.

 

So what do you think? Do you like the combination of texture, gradient and studs? How else would you wear the Illamasqua Shattered Stars trio?

 

Have a lovely day x

Hello lovelies,

 

I've quite enjoyed doing some previous manicures inspired by fashion so I've happily accepted a store credit from BANK Fashion to purchase some clothes and do inspired post! Today I will show you studded manicure to match a Lipsy studded jumper I got. This type of manicure has been done before many times but it was the perfect match for this jumper.

 

First of all I had to find nail polish closest to the colour of the jumper...my choice was OPI Incognito In Sausalito which is pretty close. Then I added gold studs from Born Pretty Store (save with LUHH10 discount code).

What do you think of this studded look? I've never really done whole nail studded manicure before and I really liked it! I don't think I would be able to keep myself from picking on the studs though :D 

 

I'm really glad I got the offer because the jumper is just so cute on. I'm not fashion blogger so no pics of me in it but I tell you it is super cool and you can see it in the first pic ;) Have you ever heard of or shopped at BANK Fashion?

 

Love, Lucie x
