I'm like two weeks or so late with this manicure. It just didn't spring at me right away, and thought of doing another transfer nail art just didn't appeal to me right now. So I waited for the inspiration to come to me. This morning it did. I woke up by the sunlight beaming into my bedroom, and instead of getting up and going to the computer like I usually do, I picked up my book that I started reading yesterday and started reading.
It's such a good book. I know, it's chic-litt, it's not for everyone, but I happen to enjoy reading it.
Few years ago, I would never even touch a chic-litt book, but something changed and 2 years ago I bought my first chic-litt book. I can't remember which book it was, but I'm guessing it was by Sophie Kinsella. If you don't know of S.Kinsella, I can tell you that she is the woman behind the Shopaholic -series, she also wrote (personal favorite of mine, when it comes to her books) Twenties Girl. I did not just love them, I devoured them, I read them in a day, and I keep looking for new books, so when I noticed that Kinsella had recommended "Meet Me At The Cupcake Cafe" by Jenny Colgan, I had to buy it.
And that is how I ended up doing this manicure.
For this manicure I used acrylic paint with a "script liner" brush, and NYX - Matte Baby Pink.
Cute! Love that base color!
ReplyDeleteIt's a very pretty colour. Sadly it's not very forgiving on tanned skin. It looks a lot better on me when I'm winter pale.
DeleteI also love Sophie Kinsella! And you did a great job with this. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you. I was oh-so-pleased with myself on the letters, it looks really good (me thinks)
