SILVER & NAVY / Azul y Plata

Here is another one that I already posted on Instagram.
I hadn't use flocking powder for a long time, don't know why, I really like it specially in dark colors as grey, burgundy and navy like this one. I thought it would look very cool in a mix and match mani with some silver chrome details.

LINES / Líneas

Hello!  I know I've been MIA for so long but I had vacation, then my nails broke and now I have to get ready for Christmas holidays, I go with my family to another state for almost a month so I'm setting everything ready (work and school) so I can go in peace.

This time I was inspired by a great great sweater, the brand is Carven and I've loved it since I saw it in Polyvore, is just fantastic, very neutral with just a pop of color, also I love everything that has lines and I mean EVERYTHING ;)

Beige and coral colors are darker in real life.
Polishes: 
Black - China Glaze Liquid Leather, 
Medium Grey - Color Club Lady Holiday
Light Grey - Color Club Silver Lake
Beige - OPI Did You'ear About Van Gogh
Coral - Ole! Mamey

31DC2013 ROUNDUP / 31DC2013 Resumen

Phew! I thought I'd never finish! well, in fact I don't because I definitely won't do Day 28: A Flag, I simply didn't found inspiration for that one, sorry but, even so I did 30 so it is not that bad. I really liked this challenge, my first one, it forced me to be creative and to try my best, I learned so much and I hope my skills are improving.

My favorites were: Rainbow Nails, Pixel Camo Nails, Yellow Nails, Tara McPherson Nails and Zombie Nails.

31DC2013 DAY 31: HONOR NAILS YOU LOVE / Día 31: Honra unas uñas que ames.

For my other party that wasn't costume required I wanted to do some scary nail art, I saw these Zombie Nails on Lyndar the Merciless blog almost a year ago, I don't know if she was the first one who did it but it was the first place where I saw this design and I've looooooooved it since. They are inspired by a print from the brand Iron Fist that appears in high heels, rain boots and bikinis. I want that bikini, is so cool!

Besides, they are very quick and easy to do because eve if it is messy it will look very nice and you can do it with almost every tool: brush, dotting tool, striper, toothpick, etc.

Polishes: Lime Green: Pure Ice Wild Thing, Pink: Rimmel Hot Shot, black and white acrylic paint.

31DC2013 DAY 30: A TUTORIAL / Día 30: Un tutorial

Here in Mexico scary season finishes until November 2 (Day of the Dead) and I had to 2 parties over the weekend, one of them was a costume party and I went as a witch, I painted my face, chest, and hands green so for the nails I wanted something different that wasn't of the same color, so I followed the steps from The Nailasaurus to make a patchwork nail art.  

I used acrylic nails 'cause witches has very long nails and I don't, here is the photos that I took before I went to the party, I really liked how they looked with the colors of the dress (black and purple.)

Polishes: Orange: Pure Ice Can't Stop, Purple: Orly Charged Up, Lime Green: Pure Ice Wild Thing, Black: China Glaze Liquid Leather.

31DC2013 DAY 29: THE SUPERNATURAL / Día 29: Lo Sobrenatural

I skipped Day 28 because I wanted to show this in time for Halloween, these are The Gentlemen from, probably the best episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Hush.

According to Buffy Wikia: The Gentlemen were a group of demons that roamed from town to town, seeking out seven human hearts they require to stay alive.

This episode is awesome, almost the entire time is silent because the demons steals the voices of the humans so they cannot scream while they ripped their hearts.

I'm a nerd I know haha, anyway the polishes are: China Glaze Liquid Leather, NYX Frizzy Spots, Wet n' Wild Fantasy Makers in Rouge and the details are acrylic paint.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! 

31DC2013 DAY 27: ARTWORK / Día 27: Obra de Arte

Since I won't have time to do Halloween nail art I think this will count as one ;) It's based on the Tara McPherson artwork (which I'm a big fan of), and specially on her book Lost Constellations Vol. 2.

So, this is my little tribute to one of my favorite illustrators and I hope I did her a little justice and I say that it's Halloween themed because of the skulls, the bleeding heart and the little vampire boy, oh well!... ok... the balloons are not scary at all! he he
