Howdy Ladies and (hopefully) Gents!
I am late for this entry; what an irony... I was hardly late on the ABChallenge, but now that I'm on holidays it's another story. I was posting on time in my head though, and the 16 ladies before me were ahead of their game, until I realized it was a little too optimistic, and that Wednesday was actually... yesterday. Bravo!
Tape. I love tape. I love it because it's easy to use and it gives straight and perfect lines. Me loves lines. So, of course, by association the love story was all set and done beforehand in my head.
Quoting a series I've been watching recently, "this is my design":
The metallic blue is OPI Swimsuit... Nailed it!, sent to me by the lovely Jenni, the neon green is from Tokalon and the neon pink is Nfu-Oh FS12. As a base for my two accent nails I used Kiko Nude. What else?
Those nails were lucky enough to get to see World War Z; geee I haven't been that excited to see a movie since... since a movie from the Twilight saga. Please don't hold it against me? Liked (though not loved) the movie. It was lacking zombie-nails shots.
Take care,
M.
Love your tape mani and don't worry, I was late with week one and I am late with week two - oops!
ResponderEliminarI read Twilight, too, they sucked me in but they're not a great example of good writing ;)
Hahaha, that makes me feel better even if it shouldn't! :p thank you!
EliminarAre you quoting Hannibal ? :D
ResponderEliminarThis is a gorgeous manicure ! Neon + nude looks always gorgeous !

I am! :D Do you like it too!?
EliminarThank you :D
Yes, I've watched all episodes in a row ! I can't wait for season 2 :D
EliminarX
'It was lacking zombie-nails shots' - I thought the same hahahah
ResponderEliminarThose zombies were just way too fast to let us see any ragged skin or rotten teeth! Where's the fun in that then? ;)
As for you mani, it's a fab one, I love the neons matting the nude shade and the arrow tape design looks fantastic on your gorgeous (GORGEOUS) nails! :D
Great mind think alike, Mina :D Yeah, too fast for my taste... We would be lost with zombies like that!
Eliminar:D Thanks for your comments! It makes me smile from ear to ear!
Ooooh gorgeous!!!
ResponderEliminarOhhh thank yoU!
EliminarOh my goodness I love this SO much!!! I love neons and your color combination is just perfection!! Beautiful nails lady! :)
ResponderEliminar:D Thank you a lot!
EliminarWoaaaaaaaah! Stunning manicure! I love the colors you used! Love the shape of your nails too. <3
ResponderEliminar:DDDDDD Thanks Cristina!!
Eliminarhahaha - that's life for you :)
ResponderEliminarBut I do love your mani!
^^ Thank you, Maria!
EliminarWonderful mani! I love the bright/neutral contrast on the accent nails especially.
ResponderEliminarKaren! Many thanks :D
EliminarNude+neon is a match I adore and I love your take at this week's theme!
ResponderEliminar:D Thank you!!!
EliminarI love this mani!!! I'm kinda 50-50 with tape, I like how the design looks with its proper use, but that's exactly it: I suck so bad at using it!!! I always manage to screw it up so I just gave up on the damn thing. I'd rather see it on other people =)))
ResponderEliminarHahahahaha, Gosia! :D I know, tape can be a mess! Thanks!
EliminarAmazing! I love the bright bold neons teamed with the blue, love it. still loving that nail shape too :)
ResponderEliminar^^ Thaaaaaaank you!
EliminarLove this!! The color combination, the neons, the taped design, and your nail shape all go so well together! :D
ResponderEliminar~ Yun
Awwww many thanks, Yun! :D
EliminarThank you, Tabea! :D
ResponderEliminarLove love love these! They look amazing!
ResponderEliminarI'm usually too lazy to use tapes but designs turn out so much better with this techniques so I also try to use it more often. The neons are super stunnging as well here.
I haven't watched World War Z yet but somehow I'm not so interested in it as well. If it's really that good, please let me know, maybe I'll change my mind ;)
Nahhh you're not missing anything if you don't go see World War Z, really. Brad Pitt is not even specially sexy anymore :'( Thanks on the compliments!
EliminarReally pretty mani. I love that pink and green, so bright!
ResponderEliminarThank you, Amy! :D
EliminarWhoa! That green is hurting my eyes on my monitor - it is BRIGHT! Love it matched with that beautiful blue. Makes me wish for a vacation near the beach...
ResponderEliminarhahaha :p I hope it didn't hurt too bad though! But thank you! And I hope you'll have those holidays you're dreaming about!
EliminarYou have a very unusual form of nails, I like!

Awww thank you! :D
EliminarI love, love, LOVE your manicure and your nails look gorgeous!!
ResponderEliminarWell thank you, Ria! :D
EliminarThis is so awesome!!!!! Swimsuit is one of the best blues ever, and I love, love, love, the neon over nude!
ResponderEliminarI'm dying to see World War Z! Hard to get out with the kids though. I've heard those zombies are fast as hell and creeeeepy!
I love Swimsuit too but it stained badly... :'(!
EliminarThe zombies are so fast you won't even notice their creepiness :p But yeah, it's not for kids!
These look really fab! I love the mix of colours and finishes, awesome!
ResponderEliminarLove it! And I'm still loving that nail shape on you! WWZ was good, I thought, though it did suffer from lack of zombie nails.
ResponderEliminarThank you, Natalie! Yup, I liked WWZ too but I was expecting more...
EliminarThis looks absolutely fabulous! And the combination of colors is so unexpected that it gives such an awesome effect!
ResponderEliminar:D Thank you! I am gald you like it!
EliminarLOL, re: no zombie nail shots!
ResponderEliminarThese are some kick-ass neon striped nails, M!
It also helps that you've got these AAA-cool stilettos going on over there in Espania!!!
Geez, woman...they are hot!
Great color combos, I LOVE the wide stripes, and stilettos! Perfection!
Thank you Lisa :D hahaha I am digging the stilettos a lot! How come I didn't shape my nails like that before?!
EliminarI absolutely love this look! Your nails look super fierce. Fierce enough for me to vote for you always having stilettos actually. ;D
ResponderEliminarMerci Sophia :D I thought I'd take off the stilettos once my holidays would be over but guess what? I am back at work and am still rocking those! No regrets!
EliminarLOVE!!!
ResponderEliminarAnd I agree with Gosia - I also have a tendency to somehow screw it up, but I love this technique so much that I just keep trying!
And I totally love your design, color combo and shapes!
and I don't think i'll go see World War Z...
Thank you, Jinny Jin! :D I know you're more a vampire kind of girl :p
EliminarI Love your arts manicure and your nails look gorgeous!!
