Topic Tuesday: Favourite Ugly Polish Colour

I think from my collection my favourite 'ugly' polish colour would be a mustard yellow. Something I seem to reach for in Autumn rather than Summer but still it isn't a colour you would look at and go "ooh beautiful shade" but I do like it in Autumn.

Topic Tuesday: Favourite Summer Neutrals

I don't tend to wear a lot of neutral polishes, nearest to that would be OPI Alpine Snow with some sort of opalescent topper and then black stamping over the top. Alpine Snow is something I surprisingly reach for quite often.

Stamping Plate: Nicole Diary - 156 [#49049]*

 

Nicole Diary 156 is a square plate 6cm by 6cm. Comes with a blue protective sticker over the top to protect the plate in transit. The images did stamp across but the fine lines were a little tricky to work with particularly in the hotter summer weather. Using a 45 degree angle scrape helped rather than the standard 90 degree angle.

Here are two nail art designs I have done using this plate;

Topic Tuesday: Favourite Colour for Summer

I much prefer wearing darker colours, but I think for summer something holographic really comes to life when the sunlight hits it. Superchic Zombie Crush, the photo below shows it in direct sunlight and no flash.
