I'll be swatching four more Black Sheep Lacquer polishes tomorrow night for all you lovely people and for Erin's shop!
Speaking of shopping, I broke my no buy yesterday :(. I had this feeling yesterday morning that I would find something perfect and have to buy it and I did! It's a lovely black maxi skirt that puffs out a lot when you spin (it has a lot of fabric). It dips down lower in places at the bottom so it isn't just cut straight across which I love! I'll just pop a picture of it down below because I'm so in love with it! It looks a bit gothic to me which I really like because I don't usually dress that way!
Onto the nails!
This is two coats of Fancy Pants plus top coat. A coat of top coat really brings this polish to life and lets you see the gorgeous pink shimmer!
I was going for a gradient leopard print today, but I decided to stop here because I love the look of these! I also skipped top coating this because I liked the fact that the little shapes are slightly raised! The colours I used for this pattern were: Essie Tart Deco (orange), China Glaze Dance Baby (pink, already coming in handy for nail art!) and Essie Play Date (purple).
Thanks so much for taking a look everyone! :)
This is a really pretty nail art design, and lovely skirt! I'm glad you found something you love so much, and sometimes it's worth it to break a no-buy ;) Also are your feet and hands really tiny? I never thought they looked small in photos but they do in your skirt photo. My hands are disproportionally large haha but luckily I don't think you can notice in swatches either :)

Thank you so much! I'm so happy that you said that haha, I would've been so sad if I hadn't've bought it! My feet are a US 5 1/2 or 6, and my hands are pretty small... I think I'm a US size 6 in rings. They look too small in that picture though haha, I think it's just a weird angle and pose! You can't tell at all in your pictures, I guess there's not really any reference you can use. Even holding a nail polish bottle doesn't help you tell because it's not like hands can be crazy small or crazy big!
DeleteI really like the skirt, it looks so pretty. Plus who doesn't love a skirt that flutters when you spin ^_^
ReplyDeleteFancy Pants is an amazing blue! I keep seeing all these blues and needing to buy them.
Thank you so much! I had to buy it, I would've been sooo sad if I hadn't! I know right? They're lovely!
DeleteWould you call it a blue? For me I seriously can't call it blue or purple because it's right in between! It's amazing, you were saying you were getting into polishes with shimmer like meright? This one's absolutely perfect! :)
