Guest Post: ChitChat Nails

First day of auditions for me here in Lausanne!!  Today's blog post comes to us from a fellow Canadian blogger who's unique skittlette manicures and beautiful photos are a constant source of inspiration to me!  I'm so honoured to have Marta from ChitChat Nails take over my blog today, take a look!  :)

Hello Lovely Ladies,

My name is Marta and I run a little Canadian nail art blog called ChitChat Nails


Emma's long and beautifully manicured nails have been a nail crush of mine for a long time- and only recently did I discover just how young she is (in comparison to my 30+ years).  I feel sooo old now... not old enough to have walked to school for miles, uphill, both ways... but old :) .  Having learned just how young and accomplished Emma is only served to increase my fascination with Globe & Nail.  I will stop gushing now, but it truly is a distinct pleasure to be here, and I hope you like what I have created for this guest post.


I don't wear purples very often, but when I do I keep reaching for Cult Nails "Vicious".  That was my starting point for this manicure.  I then applied three coats of OPI "Mad As a Hatter" (I had to bring some bling in response to this very special guest post invite).  



For my middle finger and pointer I applied two coats of OPI "Steady as She Rose" and using the saran-wrap technique I added just a little bit of a shimmery silver: SueSa "02".  I then used Konad m70 twice: first with "Vicious" and then with Black stamping polish.  I added some small round BornPrettyStore.com studs to the ring finger to complete this look.


I wish Emma nothing but the VERY BEST at the auditions for pre-professional ballet schools and I hope you like this little 'skittlette' design in the meantime.

THANK YOU FOR READING!

How amazing is this?  Marta has such a knack for creating her signature skittlette nail art looks!  Coincidentally, my favourite colour is purple so I'll definitely have to pick up a bottle of Vicious!  Thank you so much for guest posting today, Marta!!  :)
