March's Nails Challenge- Pastel

Hello! 

Today is Saturday again ...so we have another manicure for the monthly challenge : PASTEL . 

I really liked the idea...until I had to choose the nail polishes for this and I realized I don't have a lot of pastel shades, and, since I don't have that many I decided to combine them all in one manicure. 

Here it is : 




I have to admit that doing this manicure took some time but I am really happy with the end result - what's better than a colourful mani ? 
Even if I wanted to make this manicure with only one brand of nail polish I couldn't have done it. I think this is the first time ever when I use so many colours and also brands in one manicure. 



My inspiration was this colourful cake. Let's see what inspired the other talented ladies :

    NTC-Inspired by....

    NailTeamChallenge : 1. Inspired by...

    Buna seara/dimineata dragele mele!

    Nici nu s-a incheiat bine colaborarea "toamna-iarna" (haha...e o colectie de manichiuri nu de haine) ca deja am si inceput o noua colaborare.
    Eu sunt in grupul "The Polish Addict" de pe facebook...de aproape un an...si pana acum am avut destule colaborari. Cu toate aceastea...cred ca cea care incepe astazi este cea mai ''personala", cea mai apropiata de sufletul nostru daca pot sa spun asa.

    De ce? Ei bine...in aceasta colaborare, exista 18 teme (o sa le vedeti intr-un colaj la finalul postarii), teme propuse de fiecare dintre noi.
    Dupa cate am observat...majoritatea am propus tema...tehnica/stilul care ne place cel mai mult. (eu am propus french, AndraKat a propus MULT verde iar Madalina watermarble - nu va spun mai mult, vedeti la sfarsit)
    Pentru aceasta colaborare, draga mea Andrea a facut un colaj, foarte foarte dragut, care cuprinde atat temele propuse cat si autorii lor.


    Bun...ca sa nu lungesc foarte mult postarea(care oricum o sa fie lunga) incep prin a va spune cine a propus minunata tema de azi : mult iubita si indragita mea Oana. Ce a propus ea?
    Ei bine...dupa cum se vede si in titlu, tema ei se numeste "Inspired by..." (a existat si o continuare : book, movie) daaar...eu am vrut din suflet sa fac o anumita manichiura...asa ca am largit putin orizonturile.

    Acestea fiind spuse...mi-am permis sa interpretez tema pe placul meu si am numit-o " Inspired by your favourite sport team's logo". Da da...probabil ca era mai simplu sa fac ceva dupa un film sau o carte...dar nu am vrut.

    Poate ca nu toate stiti ca mie-mi plac sporturile mult, foarte mult. (ma uit la handbal, volei, fotbal..etc) Ce cu siguranta nu stiti...este ca as da 10meciuri de fotbal ca sa vad unul de hochei jucam de echipa brasoveana CORONA WOLVES BRASOV.

    Exista foarte multe motive pentru care imi plac...(voi enumera cateva mai jos) si de aceea am ales sa fac o manichiura cu logo-ul lupilor.

    Ei..cum vi se pare, asa la prima vedere? Mie-mi place la nebunie stema lor, imnul lor...numele lor.

    Ca sa revin la motivele pentru care imi place acest sport: in primul rand timpul de joc EFECTIV este 60min(in momentul in care arbitrul a fluierat- cronometrul s-a oprit. De aceea, cu pauze...de multe ori un meci poate dura si 2 ore), in al doilea rand...jucatorii sunt cu adevarat sportivi (nu am nicio problema cu fotbalistii...dar ei la un cot in gura se tavalesc pe jos 5minute- hocheistii in schimb NU, au primit un cot in gura, dau si ei unul inapoi :)) si apoi continua) si in al treilea rand, sunt cu adevarat devotati echipei, antrenorului si noua, spectatorilor. (Astea ar fi pe scurt cateva din motivele pentru care imi place hochei-ul. O sa mai mentionez asa repede...si faptul ca majoritatea arata foarte bine)

    Bun...daca sunteti curioase sa vedeti ce imi place mie..puteti urmari astazi (10.01.2015) un meci al lupilor, sustinut acasa impotriva celor de la Miskolci de la ora 19:45. 

    Revenind la treburile noastre...o sa va arat manichiura acum.







    Am decis sa fac lupul pe inelar(si m-am straduit foarte mult sa il fac cat se poate de detaliat) , un tricou pe mijlociu si in rest un color block in culorile echipei.

    "Tricoul" de pe degetul meu..este numarul 33, Patrik Polc, portarul echipei Brasovene. De ce l-am ales pe el?
    In primul rand pentru ca este un portar exceptional cu niste reflexe incredibile si in al doilea rand, de dragul manichiurii. Daca alegeam un alt jucator (ex.Hietamachi/ Pysarenko) nu aveam loc pe unghie. (si asa m-am chinuit putin...si tot stramb a iesit).

    Sper din suflet ca nu v-am plictisit cu postarea mea kilometrica.

    Cred ca este una din postarile lungi pe care le-am scris cu draga inima si cu multa stima, respect si iubire in suflet, pentru sport, pentru echipa dar si pentru minunatul meu oras, Brasov.

    (si da, daca sunteti curioase...am si un jucator preferat..dar prefer sa-l pastrez doar pentru mine)

    Daca va intereseaza, mai multe detalii despre Corona Wolves Brasov, gasiti pe www.wolves.ro






    Eu o sa raman un fan al lor si o sa ma duc cu mare drag la toate meciurile la care o sa pot sa ajung. Din pacate urmatoarele meciuri le pierd...dar poate am noroc in februarie cand voi fi in vacanta.

    Acesta este banner-ul acestei colaborari- sper sa va placa temele propuse si sa urmariti cu entuziasm colaborarea pana la capat. Va las si link-urile fetelor care participa, mai jos:

    The 31 day challenge- day 30

    DAY 30 : Inspired by a tutorial

    I've decided to show you a few tutorials I did...instead of showing you a manicure I did after one.

    I've done these a long time ago...but I haven't posted them. (not sure why)

    I hope you'll find them useful!




    The 31 day challenge- day 27

    DAY 27 : Inspired by artwork

    For this one I decided to choose a painting by Mondrian.

    Reverse accent nail- step-by-step

    Hello everybody!

    How are you today? Getting ready for a new weekend?  I can't believe how fast time flies.

    I did this mani some time ago, but I was very caught up with family, going out with friends and so on .. so unfortunatelly I wasn't able to post it sooner.

    I did this type of mani on my mom friend's nails in different colours. I was inspired by a manicure I saw on Pinterest.
    I was thinking of doing this type of colour-block for some time but I was busy doing all sorts of other manis.

    I did another colour-block, you can see it HERE .

    I've always liked this idea, even in clothes. I think It's a great way to combine colours that maybe you wouldn't normally put together.

    I will show you the mani I did. The nail shape and lenght is very different but I like the way it turned out.
    What do you think?
    Would you wear a mani like that?




    After one of my friends saw this mani, she asked me to do a step-by-step tutorial. I said, 'yes, why not?"

    I've never done a step-by-step untill now so I thought it was a good idea.

    I've decided to do a different colour combo for my step-by-step. I choose black-gold- and a colour I am not very sure how it's called.(it's not a gray nor a beige)

    I usually wear a mani for a maximum of 3 days. I liked this mani so much that I wore it for a week.

    I really hope you'll like it too and that you'll decide to try it out.

    It's a very fun and simple-to-do mani.


    I hope this step-by-step will help you out.




    I never match my pedi with my mani but I liked this mani so much that I did.
    I hope you have a great week-end darlings and I hope you'll enjoy it as much as possible.

    Mom's wish.

    Hello my darlings!
    How are you today? I had a lazy morning...so I couldn't do much but at least I did my mom's nails.
    Since my little passion started my mom has been very eager to help me get new ideas, she bought me nail polish and all sorts of nail art thingies and ofcourse she encouraged me to keep having this hobby.

    Unfortunately we live in different cities so when I get home I try to make her as happy as I can. One of OUR biggest pleasures is doing our nails...well actually, me doing her nails and mine.
    Today she was very happy because she found a beautiful design on the internet and she wanted me to do it.
    I couldn't say no, so I accepted.
    I usually don't just copy designs...but this time was different so I had to do it.

    She found a gorgeous design made by CHALKBOAD NAILS (this is the blog). You can find her blog post HERE


     I used her tutorial do to it:

    The only thing I changed is that I used a different colour for every patch.
    I'll stop with all this chatting and i'll show you what I did. My mom was very pleased about the result. That mean that she is happy...so when she's happy, I'm happy.






    Ofcourse my design wasn't as good as the author's was but I am quite happy with it.
    I hope you like my mani.
    Have a good night ladies.

    TPA Group Challenge: MATCH YOUR OUTFIT nails



    Hello everybody.

    I've been waiting for this challenge since Monday. I was so excited about it that I did it way before the deadline.
    As you can guess from the title, we had to do a mani that matches an outfit. 
    I choose a blouse i just LOVE. I think the colours couldn't have been choosen better and neither the fabric. It's just great... When I wear it I really feel better. 
    Tell me what you think about the blouse first and then about the mani. Is it a match or not?
    I have to tell you that I liked the mani as much as I love the blouse. 

    Buna seara dragele mele.
    Ce faceti? Cum este vineri seara? Gata de week-end?
    Am asteptat o gramada sa vina tema asta...Am fost atat de incantata de tema asta ca am facut manichiura luni...mult inainte de termen. Parca abia a trecut saptamana.
    Dupa cum se poate ghici din titlu si dupa cum multe stiti, a trebuit sa facem o manichiura sa se asorteze/potriveasca cu un outfit.
    Am ales o camasa de care sunt indragostita inca din primul moment in care am vazut-o. Cred ca cei care au facut-o nu puteau sa aleaga culorile sau materialul mai bine. Este, din punctul meu de vedere, extraordinara, e perfecta. Cand o port parca ma simt mai bine.
    Spuneti-mi parerea voastra despre bluzita,in primul rand, si despre manichiura, in al doilea rand. Se potriveste sau nu?
    PS: mi-a placut manichiura la fel de mult cum imi place camasa.







    What do you think? Would you wear something like this? Or is it too crowded?
    Cum vi se pare? Ati purta o asemenea manichiura? Sau este prea incarcata?
