Silver Texas Tea






A blue and silver combo is more winter like, but who says you can't wear in in summer?




My base are three coats of Colors by Llarowe Black Gold Texas Tea. The name sounds like a black polish, it looks charcoal in the bottle, but on the nails, it's a navy blue linear holo.




For the stamping, I chose a flower pattern from ÜberChic plate 1-02 and the silver holo Color Club Harp On It. One coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top finished the mani.











Colors By Llarowe are available at their own storeHypnotic polish, Color4Nails, Harlow & Co and a lot of other retailers.

Peacock






Peacock is the name of today's polish, and it matches the colors perfectly.




In the bottle, Peacock looks mostly green, since the green hex glitters are stuck to the bottle. On the nails, the deep purple jelly base and the silver shard glitters are more prominent. I used three coats and added one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top.









Picture Polish are available at  Harlow & Co., Pshiiit and their own shop (plus many more, here's a list of additional retailers).

Matte Flakies






Let's start the week with some multichrome flakies.




As base I used a deep red creme, Essie Carry On. The flakie topper is Nfu Oh 51 (don't you hate it when polishes don't have names, only numbers?). It looks mostly red in the bottle (that's why I chose the red base), but it also shifts over orange and green to blue, almost the whole rainbow. I haven't worn a matte mani in a while and I love matte flakies, so I added one coat of Picture Polish G'Day Matte over my usual topcoat (KBShimmer Clearly On Top).

1. August Mani






Last thursday was the Swiss national holiday, and as every year, I wore my nails accordingly.





I went for a quick and easy holiday mani. Just three coats of Cult Nails Bitten, a cherry red with flakie shimmer, and a distressed white cross I painted with the almost dry brush of my Born Pretty Store white stamping polish. One coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top and the mani was finished.

When Colours Collide: Turquoise, Yellow and Pink





After a short break, the When Colours Collide challenge is back again with the prompt turquoise, yellow and pink.





I went for a patchwork-style mani. As base I applied three coats of Essie Chillato, a pale yellow creme with green undertones. Then I added a reverse stamping using MoYou London Mix & Match Collection plate 02, MoYou London Winter Sky stamping polish and Essie Lady Like. As usual, I added one coat of KBShimmer Clearly On Top.
