Zoya Yana Goes Retro with Cheeky Jumbo Plate 3

Hi Goddesses

This is a cute little design, courtesy of Cheeky Jumbo Plate 3 aka European Romance.  Now, I don't know about you, but this pattern just SCREAMS 60s retro at me, a bit Austin Powers :)

On base we have Zoya Yana from this summer's collection - super bright, super happy - and on stamp duty we have Essie There's No Place Like Chrome, which is fast becoming my go-to silver for stamping.

I see lots of uses for this pattern in our future - there's just something about it that instantly makes me happy!  

Enjoy xx :)

Barry M Gelly Week - Gradient Meets Cheeky Jumbo Plate 3 (catchy lol)

Hi Goddesses

It’s Barry M Gelly Week on the blog this week to celebrate the very imminent arrival of the new Barry M Gellys to the High Street.  They are due to launch next week on the 5th, but I know some ladies have had luck picking some up already.

Today’s post uses all 5 Gellys from the Collection – you can refresh yourself on them HERE – in a rainbow gradient running from thumb to pinkie.

I do have a little sad though – I am not totally happy with the thumb, as Blue Grape has turned (an albeit cracking shade of) indigo when layered over Dragonfruit.  I wish I’d done what I did on a couple of the other nails, and painted it half and half, with some sponging down the middle.

The stamp used is from Cheeky Jumbo Plate 3 and I love it !!  I’m going to be using it a lot.  It’s so big and bold and chunky – I love it I love it I love it!

So which nails are your favourite?  I think the 2 with Key Lime really stand out – they just look amazing against the boldness of the stamp – and I also love (obviously, after yesterday) anything that’s a Mango-Dragonfruit cocktail :)

One more post to come tomorrow, where I’ll be showing you that these aren’t just glorious colours, they STAMP too.

Enjoy xx :)
