Clouds and Kites



I purchased this fabulous new baby blue colour and needed to try it out ASAP!  So this simple little sky design was a must, and i love it!

The blue I bought is from Topshop and is called "Celestial" - I actually googled this word as I had no idea what it means and this is the definition i got..

"Celestial - pertaining to the sky or visible heaven"

 So as the name suggest "sky" I guess I had to go with the sky theme!!

I used 2 coats of this blue over a base coat of Stickey by CND (i will be reviewing this soon).  The application is just lush on this polish and I love the colour, its exactly what I have been after for a while now!

For the clouds I used a medium dotting tool dipped in white polish and dotted on cloud shapes - this is so so easy you should give it a go!

I loved this look plain but me being a creative little bean I had to add something else!!  So out came my black liner pen and I drew on a kite on my thumb and a couple of bird shapes on my ring finger!  I think this really adds a little quirkiness to the whole look

Anyone else loving Topshops nail polishes?? I really cannot fault them!!!

  3. That looks awesome! What white did you use for the clouds? It looks really white but not stark, it works really well!
