Matching Manicures - Snowy Manicure

Zamislite situaciju. Na poslu sam ceo dan, i tek negde posle 23h završavam, izađem na ulicu, i vidim mnooogo snega koji i dalje pada. U trenutku, zovem mamu i kažem "Pa zašto ja ne znam da pada sneg?". Narednih 15-20 minuta uživam u pahuljicama i smešim se. Obožavam sneg, i jako mi je žao što je tako kratko trajao. Već se veselim sledećem :).
Danas je opet Matching Manicures nedelja (da, svesna sam da sam počela samo nedeljom da pišem postove ali ću se truditi da to promenim) a tema je snežni manikir. Iskoristila sam priliku da opet počnem malo više i da ručno crtam po noktima, pa sam pokušala da dočaram jednu zimsku idilu. 
Koristila sam : China Glaze - Sci Fly By za podlogu, akrilne boje za crtanje, i providan lak sa šljokicama koji je inače jedan od mojih omiljenih lakova koji posedujem, theBalm - Sugar Coat It

Imagine this situation. I'm at work whole day, and somewhere after 11PM when I finish, I go out to the street and see loooots of snow and it's still falling. In the moment, I called my mom and asked "Why I don't know that it is snowing?" In the next 15-20 minutes I enjoy outside with snow and smile. I love snow, and I'm so sorry because it has already stopped. But I'm looking forward to next one :). 
Today is Matching Manicure Sunday (yes, I'm aware that I started writing posts only on Sunday but I will try to change that), and theme is snowy manicure. I used this opportunity to start doing more free hand nail art and tried to do some winter idyll.
I used : China Glaze - Sci-Fly By as a base, acrylic paints for painting and clear nail polish with glitter that is, by the way, one of my favourite polishes that I own, theBalm - Sugar Coat It

Da li volite sneg? Koje su vam omiljene zimske aktivnosti? Moja je definitivno sankanje, samo što, što sam starija, sve je teže pronaći nekog ko hoće da me vuče na sankama :). Ne zaboravite da pogledate i ostale snežne manikire koje su devojke napravile :

Do you like snow? What are your favourite winter activities? My is definitely sledding, but, as I get older, it's really starting to be hard to find someone tu pull me on sleigh :). Don't forget to check other snowy manicures that girls did :

Matching Manicures - V manicure - Christmas Style


Kako znate da bi trebalo da posvećujete više pažnje svojim noktima? Kada vam treba minut vremena da se setite šta je to ustvari V manikir, koji je ujedno i tema za ovonedeljni Matching Manicures. Sigurno svi već znate koliko ja obožavam Božić i sve u vezi njega, a već me je strah da neću stići da uradim toliko Božićnih manikira koliko inače radim svake godine, pa sam odlučila da počnem malo ranije. V manikir sam napravila takvim da potpuno odgovara Božićnom raspoloženju u kom sam ja, i već uveliko razmišljam o poklončićima za moje najdraže osobe.
Koristila sam moja tri omiljena Božićna laka (ukoliko su u pitanju crvena, zelena i zlatna boja naravno, jer imam i omiljenu Božićnu plavu, Božićne šljokice, itd.) : China Glaze – Running in Circles, China Glaze – Ruby Pumps i Essence – A Piece of Forever.


How do you know  that you need to give more attention to your nails? When you need a minute to remember what V manicure actually is, and this is also a theme for Matching Manicures today. You probably all already know how much I love Christmas and everything about it, and I’m already afraid that I won’t be able to do as many Christmas manicures like I usually do every year, so I decided to start a little bit earlier. I made V manicure to completely fit Christmas mood that I’m in, I even already started to think about presents for my dearest persons.
I used three of my favorite Christmas polishes (when we talk about green, red and gold of course; because I also have favorite Christmas blue, Christmas glitter, etc. ) : China Glaze – Running in Circles, China Glaze – Ruby Pumps and Essence – A Piece of Forever.

Matching Manicures - Green Ombre

Još jedna Matching Manicures nedelja, a ovog puta tema je Ombre. Još za rođendan dobila sam ovaj set ombre lakova od blogger drugarice iz Švedske, i ovo je bila prava prilika da ih isprobam. U pitanju je set zelenkastih lakova, koji idu od svetlijeg do tamnijeg, a ono što mi je posebno bilo interesantno je što ombre ide kako u bojama, tako i u finishima, od jelly, preko šljokica pa sve do mat. Proizvođač je Urban Outfitters.

Another Matching Manicures Sunday, and this time theme is Ombre. For my birthday I got this ombre set of polishes from blogger friend from Sweden, and this was the perfect time to use the. This is a set of five green polishes, that goes from light to dark, and thing that is especially interesting is that ombre goes in colors, but also in finishes, from jelly, over glitter to matte. Manufacturer is Urban Outfitters.

U poslednjih godinu dana, jako volim zelene lakove za nokte, uključujući i sve one nijanse između zelene i plave. Lakovi se nanose veoma lako, četkica je malo premala za moj ukus (kao i bočice uopšte) ali ju je prilično lako kontrolisati. Nalakirala sam 3 sloja svakog laka, i jedino kod jelly i glitter varijante se još uvek može videti bela linija nokta. 

In last year, I started to love green nail polishes, including all those shades between green and blue. Polishes are easy to apply, but brushes are a little bit too small (as well as bottles) but it is pretty easy to control them. I applied three coats of every polish, and only on jelly and glitter nail you can still see visible nail line.

Moj omiljeni je definitivno jelly lak (na palcu) ali mislim da će dva najtamnija biti dobra i za pečatiranje. Koji se vama najviše dopada? Ne zaboravite da pogledate i ostale ombre manikire koje su devojke napravile :

My favourite is definitely jelly polish (on thumb) but I think that the two darkest will be good for stamping. Which one is your favourite? Don't forget to check out other ombre manicures that girls made :

Matching Manicures - Galaxy

Tema za Matching Manicures nedelju ove nedelje je galaxy ili water marble. Budimo iskreni, meni apstraktne stvari ne idu od ruke. Moram da vidim (ili zamislim) tačne linije objekta koji crtam da bi mogla da ga stvarno i nacrtam. A kada su u pitanju apstraktne stvari kao što je galaxy (o water marble-u nisam htela ni da razmišljam jer je jedina tehnika koju nikad nisam probala), nema šta da se zamisli. A o čišćenju prstiju ne želim ni da počnem...
Poslednja stvar koja mi je trebala da se dogodi je polomljen nokat, a dogodio se. Odmah ću vam reći, galaxy ne izgleda lepo na kratkim noktima. Pogledajte i uverite se...

Theme for Matching Manicures Sunday this week is galaxy or water marble. Let’s be honest, I'm not really good with abstract things. I need to see (or imagine) exact lines of object that I'm drawing to actually be able to draw it. And when it comes to abstract things like galaxy (I didn't even want to think about water marble since it’s the only technique that I never tried before), there is nothing to imagine. And don’t let me start about cleaning fingers...

Last thing I needed to happened was broken nail, and it happened. I'm going to tell you, galaxy doesn't look good on short nails. Check it out...
