Peace for now

I was trying to do a water marble with some random polishes while waiting for my Chg Electric nights to arrive and I failed. No surprise there..some polishes jus kept spreading and some refused to budge. So instead I tried a dry water marble that I saw on IG that my friend ramie from +Lifeisnails did and I kinda got the hang of that. And thats how I got some peace for now. lol!


Base MO Turquoise Gleam and OPI Dating a royal
For the marbling: MO Turquoise gleam, Maybelline bold gold and Miss Claire A18
Stamping plates: Nail Matinee NM03
Stamping Polish: Konad white 
Topped with SV

Leopard Print Nails : inspired by shopping from Limeroad.com

I was browsing for some nail stuff online as usual...just surfing around here and there and came across this super cute Hello Kitty Leopard print nail decals on an online shopping website called Limeroad.com

I did a small haul from that website and did a mani inspired from one of the items:

Base: China Glaze White Out
Sponged on some viviana Moody Concoction
Dotted with OPI you dont know Jacques..then I rubbed some out with a brush dipped in acetone to make the spots faded
Black dots were made by Sally Hansen Black heart

Now see the inspiration behind these nails:


Leopard Print Sling bag : This is a long belt cotton-Canvas material sling bag with lobster clasp hook. I like how this sling is really convenient to carry some stuff when you need more than just a wallet. A small handy water bottle and a pair of sunglasses and easily fit in along with wallet and some keys. The material is cotton-canvas as mentioned earlier and the finishing is quite neat. It is lined with polyester on the inner side and seems will hold well against normal wear and tear. Priced at Rs.300/- (decently priced too). Size: length x width x height (inches) : 8.5 x 3 x 8
And I got these cute Hello kitty decals in leopard print to go with my look. Cant wait to try these on!
Aren't they so cute? I was surprised to find that this online shopping website had some really cool options for these kinds of nail decals! (link here) I havent seen this kind of variety on other sites much and if you like to go for an easy fuss free manicure you should definitely check these out.




Regarding delivery: Both these items seem to have been dispatched from different places. While I placed my order on 18th April, I got the bag delivered on 21st Apr and the nail stickers were delivered on 25th Apr. This wasn't urgent for me and I was happy to wait but if you are planning your look for a certain pre-set date then you would do good to order by keeping a few days spare. 

I certainly had a good experience shopping online with limeroad.com and look forward to trying out some clothes and accessories from there too.
