Cats!

I bought a few Bundle Monster plates recently and one of the purchase was this cat plate, BM-S162!

I wanted to get this design plate earlier but whenever I was going to order, it was out of stock! Finally, I got it!

For this look, I first painted my nails with Essie Kimono Over (dark purple). I used Bundle Monster BM-S162 and Konad white for stamping. 

Essie Kimono Over is from Essie Fall 2016 collection. And if you have read my previous few posts, you know how much I love this collection! 

I love cats! Are you a cat person?

Japanese Kimono

Continuing with Essie Fall 2016 collection polish, I used Now and Zen, Kimono Over, and Playing Koi for this design!

I actually love love love this look! It kind of reminds me of Japanese kimono!

For this look, I first painted my nails with Essie Now and Zen (grey). I stamped a design from Bundle Monster plate BM-XL155, using Essie Kimono Over as stamping polish. I used Direct Decal Method to stamp some flowers from Pueen 72 on a few nails. I used Konad white for outlines and colored in with Essie Playing Koi (orange red).

Essie Kimono Over is great as stamping polish! And I like the look of layered stamping! 

I wore this look for a little over a week and I didn't want to take it off!!

Do you like the design like this?

Koi Fish

I love the colors from Essie Fall 2016 collection! I ended up buying almost all colors!! I used my first pick, Go Go Geisha, in this design here. This time, I used Udon Know Me and Playing Koi!

For this look, I first painted my nails with Essie Udon Know Me (dusty blue) and Playing Koi (orangy red). I used koi fish design from Bundle Monster plate BM-725, using Essie Kimono Over as stamping polish. I added a little more color after stamping, using OPI Chromatic Orange and OPI Primarily Yellow. 

I found all these colors to be well pigmented. I was able to use Essie Kimono Over as stamping polish and I might want to try stamping with other colors from this collection!

I am so happy with this collection and I am sure I will be wearing these colors a lot this season!

Have you tried any color from Essie Fall 2016?

Orange Foxes!

Cute fall fox design for you today!

I really love this Messy Mansion plate. Perfect for fall/winter designs!

For this design, I first painted my nails with OPI It's a Piazza Cake! (Orange) and Essie Take It Outside (taupe grey). I used the fox design from Messy Mansion plate MM34 and OPI It's a Piazza Cake for stamping. 

These foxes are so cute!!

Do you like fox design?

Pink Ribbons!

Pink Ribbons for breast cancer awareness month!

Recently, I had an experience of beast cancer screening that resulted in follow-up ultrasound and biopsy. Fortunately, everything came out good but time like this, you think about your health as well as others who might be fighting this disease. 

For this look, I first painted my nails with Essie I Am Strong (pink) and Sally Hansen Ivory Skull (white). I used Bundle Monster plate BM-321 and Essie I Am Strong for pink ribbon stamping. 

Essie I Am Strong is from Breast Cancer Awarness 2012 collection. So it is a good polish to use for this theme!

Wishing you all good health!

Essie Go Go Geisha - Twin Nails

When I heard that Essie Fall 2016 collection was inspired by Japan, I thought I must get all colors from this collection! 

Well, the first one I got was Go Go Geisha! I love this lovely tone of muted pink! 

My beloved daughter and I couldn't wait to try this color so we have twin nail designs for you this week!

For my look, I first painted my nails with Essie Go Go Geisha (dusty pink). I used a design from Bundle Monster Polynesia BM-XL 111 and China Glaze Sleeping Under the Stars (navy) for stamping. 

For my beloved daughter's look, she first painted her nails with Essie Go Go Geisha (dusty pink). She used her favorite plate, MoYou London Explorer Collection 03 and Essie Pool Side Service for stamping. 

We really enjoyed wearing this color. Have you purchased any color from this collection?

Love,

Fall

I must say I am sad that summer is over. I think summer is my favorite season. But fall is here and no use of dwindling in the past...

So moving on to fall colors! This is Essie Coat Couture from Cashmere Matte collection. It is a matte polish, supposes to be worn without top coat but I kind of like the color and shine of this polish when top coat is on! 

For this look, I first painted my nails with Essie Coat Couture. I stamped a design from Bundle Monster plate BM-210, using Essie Jiggle Hi, Jiggle Low (gold) as stamping polish. 

I really like this unique color. I don't even know how to describe this color though... Kind of purplish, greyish, mauve?? If you want to read about my review of Essie Cashmere Matte, you can check it out here!

Do you like fall? What color do you wear for this season?

Love,
