The Digit-al Dozen DOES Metal - Day 4

Hi Goddesses



I really didn't know what to call this one lol, so Day 4 it is!


When the idea first cropped up to have a Metal Week, I really thought I would end up with 5 manis like this - a random swatch with some bling on them!  It's even the reason I got the very bling you see today lol, which was provided for review by Born Pretty Store.  You can find the exact studs I used HERE (and don't forget to use my code to the left if you order!).




I love the drama of this mani.  To be honest, I loved it more before I added the bling - so let's check that out first.





The base is Lilypad Lacquer Vamp-a-licious and it is the deepest darkest purple holo I have ever encountered.  So dark, in fact, that the holo is quite hard to detect indoors.





This is deepest darkest decadent wine and velvet curtains and Victorian melodrama, all bottled and cooing huskily for some temptation!  It was a one coater, which inspired the stamped nail.





The accent finger is China Glaze Angel Wings and I stamped with this lovely brocade image from CICI&SISI 03.





So, back to the metal.  I blame Missy for making me want some proper hardware on my nails - and she always seems to be able to use it so expertly!  As if the mani was made for it!




I wanted some designs that weren't just squares or circles and this wheel has a lot of interesting shapes in it.  I was particularly drawn to these rings ... just because they're different.


Don't forget to check out the other ladies.  Both of these products were sent to me for an honest review.
