I’ve been doing nail art for years (12 years to be exact) and simplicity never ceases to amaze me.
No matter how complex you’ve made previous designs, there is something really flattering and satisfying about making simple nail art. I’ve used striping tape before and stamps to make straight lines but realized I hadn’t done an actual thick striped design, hence….! This was born. đÂ
Inspiration does strike in extremely random ways.
Specially when it’s the second time, I take inspiration in my shower curtain.
While searching for shower curtains, I found a black one with gold lips printed on it. My decor already has a ton of black, so this was perfect!
And so easy to re-create!

A few days ago it was spring. Today it’s #snowmaggedon2017.
Are we still pretending global warming doesn’t exist?
There was one amazing song that came out in the 90s called “Hey-ya!” by Outkast
and everybody dropped what they were doing to dance it.
If you haven’t heard it, I really recommend you do:
But I am not responsible if you can’t stop shaking it like a polaroid picture!
Oh yes, Valentine’s day. There’s too much hearts and roses going on, so I just decided to pink up my nails and make them a quilt.
(Also, ignoring the fact that NYC was cold/warm on February?)
There are days when you simply can’t.
When you have too much to do and, you can’t be bothered to do anything else other than sleep when you get home. Even a complex nail art. Am I right!?
So you do this:
Same stamp, 2 colors!
Update (5PM EST)
I’ve managed to update all link images to the new service and they should all be working as usual from now on. Thanks again for your patience!
Ok, so something happened.
I’ve been using a “not  bad but not exactly good practice” way to display images on my blog, and I received an email from Dropbox saying that they’re dropping support for the public folder in every account … tomorrow.
Got the email about a week ago, but I haven’t exactly had time to fix it before, so, I’m running a last minute maintenance on the site. Meaning, don’t panic if you don’t see the images tomorrow. I’ll be moving from using Dropbox to a new kind of storage and will be fixing this as soon as I can. Hopefully it’ll go well.
If it doesn’t, I’ll let you know haha.
Thank you if you’ve visited, or subscribed or liked or just seen my nail art. I will see you soon! đ (have several ones I haven’t posted yet, but you can see them on my Instagram account in the right side bar ———————————————–>)
Like they say in french, Ă bientĂ´t (see you soon)Â !
I had been avoiding this trend for the simple fact that I don’t like glitter herpes.
And I knew the moment I opened that jar, all the powder would fly off into my face.
But, I decided to give it a try and actually buy one small jar.
I waited a long time because it came all the way from China and didn’t have prime,
and by the time it got to me, so many options had popped up on Amazon WITH prime.
Back to the story. I opened that thing and lucky for me, it wasn’t as bad. I proceeded to apply it to a gel based nail polish (I used Sally Hansen)
and all of a sudden I saw the light, and everything was holy.
So worth it.
