Polish Days: Vintage

This month's Polish Days theme is Vintage. When I think of vintage I automatically think of pearls, lace and subtle colours.  I don't know about all the other Polish Days participants but I really struggled with this theme; I did three mani's before settling on this one. It's simple and subtle and reminds me of a really classy lady. 
For this I used three coats of Sally Hansen Dorian Grey. I then added a coat of Seche Vite to each nail and while this was still tacky on my ring finger and thumb I used an orange stick to add little nail art pearls, gems and beads from a Nail Art Kit that I got from River Island.

Vintage with a twist!

I absolutely LOVE anything with a vintage look, and nails are no exception! Dita von Teese is famous for her 1950's inspired half moon mani's. This was naked half moons with two coats of Next's Get the Look for Runway Urban, this is an awesome varnish and was a bargain at £2! Of course I topped it off with a coat of Seche Vite.


This is my usual nail length/style but I did this mani before I got all my chips and peels. I need them to grow faster!
