Good Afternoon loves! I figured it was time for a study break, so why not write a post?! This is the manicure that I wore last weekend for my 1 year anniversary :) I wanted something pretty and feminine that would be able to go with a few outfits that I would be wearing. One of my main sources for inspiration when it comes to stamping is the lovely Marta of ChitChat Nails. She always comes up with the most beautiful and feminine manicures! So I tried to, 'think like Marta' and this is what I came up with!
There are a lot of pictures for this one, so keep reading after the jump!
I pulled out my all time favourite white, OPI My Boyfriend Scales the Walls from the Spiderman collection and did two coats on my thumb and ring finger. Then I did 4 coats of OPI Too Hot Pink To Hold 'Em, a jelly from the 2011 Texas Collection. Then I stamped on my accent nails using, BM-206 and Billie Steel Blue, and then I stamped again using the same pattern and Wet n Wild Black Creme. I was going for a bit of a 3 dimensional look to the stamp. The rest of my nails needed a little something more, they were looking a tad plain in comparison so I added a ruffian of light blue rhinestones!
I loved how feminine this looked! It also managed to go with the two dresses that I was going to be wearing on our day! Score!
I hope that you like my delicate double stamped manicure! I really loved this and wore it for 4 days without getting tired of it!
Also my anniversary was amazing, we went on a wine tour, then went to the best restaurent in town, where they had prepared a 6 course tasting for us! (My boyfriend used to work in the kitchen there so his friends decided to do it for us :)) It was incredible and I loved every moment of it!
Well sorry this post is on the shorter side, but I've got to get back to studying, or maybe watch the Olympic opening ceremonies while trying to study! ;)
How do you like my delicate double stamped manicure? I hope you are all having a great Friday! Thanks for stopping by!! :D
