Crazy for lines

I've said and ill say it again i love mixing patterns and colors. That is why for today's inspiration i choose one of Project Runways season 8 best designer Mondo Guerra. He is definitely the king of pattern mixing. In one of the challenges they were to design their own pattern that described them. He did this awesome outfit with a plus sign to represent him being HIV positive.

Hope you like my nail design did it all by hand.

Busy busy day, but i love it! Things always seem to backfire on me, but in a very good way. I had missed the beautiful and elegant look of the french mani.

Vintage mail!

The days have gotten a bit chilly again. I can wear my new scarves and boots. 2nd week of the Year, so far so good. Re-started school again and in less than 3 weeks i will be done and ready for my exam. Finally got my test date its scheduled for Valentines' Day. Can't think of a better day to be pumped and ready for it.

Here's another nail design hope you like. This one is inspired by these adorable vintage air mail envelopes. I love these i wish people would still send each-other letters with these envelopes. My mom has a stack of old letters that were sent in these crisp envelopes. Hope you like how they came out i will be extending this design to a Valentines day love letter design so stay tune.

The inspiration

These are fiber-glass nail on white tips.
Used: OPI 'Russian Navy matte- and Orly 'Haute Red' with hand sculpted flowers and bow.

Happy New Year welcome 2012.
Happy 1 year Blognniversary thank you to everyone for being part of my nail passion. I'm so incredibly thankful to everyone who has contributed in my nail art. I will continue to bring you more designs this year. I also feel blessed to have discovered this hidden talent of mine. 
It helped me escape my illness and soothe my depression.

Wow who had a great time last night??? I sure did it was fantastic i felt so blessed to have made it through another year. It was so different from last year in which i spent my new years eve in bed the whole day. Anyways hope everyone had a great time, time for new beginnings and resolutions. I dearly hope all my aspirations, wishes, goals and dreams come true this year! 
I will do the impossible to make them happen.

I'm so exited to show you my new years nail design. I went out of the traditional new years colors and opted for bright bold ones and i love how they came out. I also switched my nail shape from my favorite (pointy) to a square shape it just felt more appropriate for the occasion.Hope you like all my pictures and i love how my lips came out i tried out the Cosmopolitan New Years glitter lip look.

Also Nicole by OPI 'Rainbow in the S-Kylie has become my favorite holiday nail polish!!!


Love my long black hair, sparkly lips and nails.
