Hello ladies,
First, a quick reminder to enter the Be a Rebel Debutante Contest. The end of the day February 13th is the last moment to enter. We're going by the last available time zone on the planet. While there are no human inhabitants of this area, there are bristle-thighed curlews in residence. I don't believe they will be vying for nail polish. There is your bit of whimsy for the day.
It was a very grey afternoon in Philadelphia. My friend Lisa and I visited the Naked Chocolate Cafe for cupcakes and conversation. Afterwards, she accompanied me to the park for photography and solidarity in love of nail polish. We could see the sun filtered through the grey atmosphere. I was able to capture my manicure in diffuse light.
I wanted to create a low key Valentine's Day manicure with tones of pink and purple. Color Club Ms. Socialite is the base for this look. I stamped the fauxnad hearts and flowers design from plate BO1 using Konad Princess polish in psyche pink. I overlaid the heart portion of the pattern with an iridescent purple cutout. In the center of the flowers, I alternated pink and lavender crystals.
Lisa's strawberry cupcake and my red velvet cupcake and French roast coffee. I sprinkled some spicy Aztec cocoa in my coffee. Delicious!
Color Club Ms. Socialite is another of my favorites from the Rebel Debutante Collection. This is a lovely purple creme with a hint of pink. It would make a great base for layering Nfu-Oh flakies. It's quite captivating on it's own. I am wearing three coats.
Ms. Socialite was sent to me for review. This shade and the other eight polishes from the Rebel Debutante Collection can be purchased from victorianailsupply.com.
Whether you are celebrating Valentine's Day with candy or indifference, I hope your day is lovely. xoxo! Happy painting, ladies!
