I added some free hand art using Sally Hansen Celeb city, a dense metallic silver glitter. I think I was aiming for flowers, but got snowy pine cones instead. I like them regardless. Can never get enough of the blue with silver combo...
UPDATE: I finally located the tutorial from Tartofraises that inspired this manicure. You can find it here.
Blue For You is a dark navy blue with a blue shimmer. In the bottle it has a strong purple shimmer, which didn't translate on the nail at all. Application was decent, although I had a hard time getting it to wrap around the tips. This is two coats plus a top coat...

I realize I have one too many dark navy blues in my collection. Note to self, stop buying them! :)
Is there a color you gravitate towards buying every time?
Thank for looking!

All of you ladies are sporting these deep rich navy blues lately! I totally need to get over my fear of blue and join the crowd! ;)

So unique I love it!
Thank you! I love this color combo :)
@Marta, definitely give it a try, you have nothing to loose :)
Such a great combination, dark blue+silver/gold is one of my favourite ones! I'd love to know how you did the pattern! :)
Good question... I finally found the video that inspired this. I went from memory when making this since I was not smart enough to bookmark it. I did pretty much the same except using silver polish instead of paint (and mine need lots of practice... :D)

And, apparently I buy lots of pinks and dark reds :P ~Alla
@Pauline, I couldn't quite decide what it was either. I was going for flower and ended up with pine cone... or waves :)
@Alla, Thanks! And yes, you do buy lots of reds. You should come play with other colors and see what you like :P
Blue and silver always look good together! This mani is so pretty. I keep staring at it. :D
Thanks! I know you are a blue fan too. I'm loving all you swatches right now :)
