Pinspiration: Jasper Conran Fall 2012


I know, I know...get off Pinterest already. But I love it so!

My Inspiration:

My Version:


 Colors Used:
Rimmel London Steel Grey
Pretty Woman Velvet Nails Kit


 If you are around a Rite Aid, and you see this kit, grab it! It was $8.00 and it's great! It comes with a mini polish, a good sized tube of flocking powder, and a wee brush to dust off the excess powder. This is my first go at "velvet" nails...and I'm in love. I didn't think I'd like them, since texture can be a big issue for me. But WOW. It's so neat! And the black polish is actually great too. Nearly one coat coverage. For $8.00, this is a brilliant intro into silly nail trends.


If you need me, I'll be in the scrapbooking aisle at Michaels...buying all the flocking powder I can carry.

    1. cheaper than Ciate. By a long shot. And you try getting in and out of a craft store with two kids and not buying a bunch of shit.

    3. LOL, bascially. I was at Rite Aid looking for the SC colors...they didn't have any of the new stuff. I saw this, and figured "what the hell"

  2. Love the translation from the picture to the nail. It's spot on!

    1. thanks! The best part is that this mani lasted--chip free--for over a week. The flocking powder was mostly gone from my thumb, but the polish never chipped!
