Girly-Girl Challenge - Day 2

I'm back with day 2 of the Girly-Girl challenge. I probably won't post as close next week but then again, I might. Regardless, I like doing these challenges because I know I have content to post. The theme for day 2 is Gimme that BLING! Diamonds are a girl's best friend, so put some sparkle on those nails!

I thought long and hard about what nail polish I had that made made me think "bling bling". I ended up going with a beauty from Wet n Wild Coloricon's Ice Ice Baby collection. To make it even better, the polish has a fitting name, Diamonds in the Rough. This is 2 coats of Diamonds in the Rough.

On my accent nails, I used Revlon Siren (picked up yesterday on sale from CVS with another Revlon polish and the WnW shadows I posted about, courtesy of my boyfriend). Siren was opaque in 1 coat but I did 2 for good measure.
For the nail art, I attempted to do a blingy necklace. For the necklace I used Milani HD and for the charm I used Pure Ice 537CP (a silver glitter) and topped that with the silver holo glitter from Claire's Precious Metals. I also added a layer of the Claire's silver holo glitter over my middle finger for a more blingy effect.



So what do you think of my bling?

  9. With one itty-bitty word crossed out you had me going..."So, stop! Collaborate and listen..."

    The  nails are gorgeous.  I like that you sort of turned the mani on it's head by going super blingy on most nails and creamy on the accent.  Plus, "Siren" looks fab with your skin tone..
