31 Day Challenge - Day 16 - Tranquility

I love the quiet time, especially in the Summer, when the sun starts to rise in the morning, but you can still see the stars in the sky.  That inspired this look. More details after the jump.

David Bowie Impressionist Concept Nails

On 13 August I went along to Eden Court Theatre in Inverness to watch a live stream from the V&A Museum in London of David Bowie Is... a look through the exhibition of costumes, artwork and various other artifacts from the archives.  The theatre got a mention at the start of the broadcast as the most northerly and the audience in the cinema cheered.  To celebrate this I created a mani inspired by my experience of David Bowie over the years. More details and pictures after the jump.

MSMD Monday - Emily's Army

Image
I took a few of my nail things with me when I went away on holiday recently.  As we were staying with friends it made it easy to set up a little nail station and start painting to get us all ready for a night out. While we were away we went to see a young American band called Emily's Army on the last night of their UK tour at the Garage in Islington, London.  I was inspired by the album artwork for their latest album Lost at Seventeen and translated this into a bit of nail art.  Emily's Army - Lost at Seventeen Artwork Details and more pictures after the break.

This is a look that was inspired by a couple of Robin Moses designs. The original designs can be found:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkZ8GpukWBE  and  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7dEXyB4WY8 More details after the break.

Funky Friday Nails - Holographic Stars

Image
The work week is done and the weekend is finally here so it is time for something a little more vibrant on my nails. I started with a base of Rimmel Azure and stamped an image from Cheeky plate CH51 over the top  in 17 Holographic Silver.  There are nice subtle iridescent pink highlights in both polishes which complimented each other really well and this looks really great in sunlight. This weekend sees the start of the May Day celebrations so there will be another post up tomorrow with something to welcome Summer.  All we need now is a bit of sunshine!
