my spring/summer nails

I haven't done any nail posts in a while, so I have pictures of a lot of the nail designs I have done in the past month or so. They can be fun to look at and I hope they inspire you while painting your nails this weekend for the upcoming week!

You might have seen most of the designs on past outfit posts or on my Instagram account iwantshoes. As usual, I took these pictures with my phone so some of them are a little blurry. 

popsicles: I created these with a dotting tool and different nail polishes.

milk nails: I love the outcome of these. I think they came out so simple and beautiful. I will do them again using other colors. I used two colors and a dotting tool for these.

pineapple: I used two tones of yellow nail colors, green, black, gold glitter, and a dotting tool. I loved these so much that I left the pineapple on my nail for two more weeks.

If you follow me on Instagram (which I highly encourage you to do;)), this nail design must be old news to you. These were my nails last week and wanted to share them with you because I thought they were also really easy to do.

I only used one nail color (Cream Soda by Ciaté), two studs, nail foil and an orange-red color to draw a cross on my index finger. If drawing the cross is too hard for you, you don't really need to do it. I'd say that the nail foil on its own looks cool enough.

These were all the materials I used on my nails:

I actually love how they turned out.

Let me know what you think!

Besos,

one color is not enough

I am currently (and have been for several months already) obsessed with wearing studs on my nails. I guess I always have been, but never as much as I am now. I would say that most (if not all) of my nail designs for the past four months have included studs in them. They are like the cherry on top. For some reason, I feel like my nails are missing something when I finish painting them and don't add a stud of some sort to at least one of my nails.

Some of you commented on my last nail post saying that most of the nail designs I did were too hard, so I went ahead and chose to post this one (after receiving more than a few compliments by random people). It is super easy, super cute, and super quick to do! You don't need to have the best pulse and/or drawing skills and I think they have that badass factor to them.

These were all the nail polishes I used (in order), and the studs which I just added at the end, before applying the top coat. 

I hope you like this simple design and try it on yourself!

Besos,

Angela
