Miss Piggy Reloaded and Piha Black

Hi my friends!

I had other plans but this is what you're going to get
Imala sam nešto drugo u planu ali dobit ćete ovo... tako vam je to s planovima




This is Catrice 'Miss Piggy Reloaded', dusty pink color with tiny multicolor shimmer, unfortunately there was no sun so the shimmer is not too visible. On pics I wear four coats of it, it's too sheer if you ask me, but it dries so fast that I didn't put a topcoat over it. Don't you just love the polishes that dries so fast, I do
Now take a look at this gorgeousness!
Ovo je Catrice 'Miss Piggy Reloaded', prašnjava roza s višebojnim shimmerom, na žalost nije bilo sunca pa shimmer nije previše vidljiv. Na fotkama imam čak četiri sloja, preproziran je ako mene pitate, ali se suši tako brzo da uopće nisam stavila nadlak. Obožavam lakove koji se ovako brzo suše
A pogledajte sad ovog ljepotana!





It's Lancome #11, online it sais 'Piha Black' but on the bottle is just number. These are two coats with no topcoat. It's black polish with silver glass fleck. It really looks awesome, but it was too hard to capture it with camera. It stole my heart
Which of these two polishes would you rather wear?
Ovo je Lancome #11, na netu sam našla i naziv 'Piha Black' ali na boci je samo broj. Na fotkama su dva sloja bez nadlaka. Lak je crni sa srebrnim glass fleck dodatkom. Stvarno predobro izgleda, samo ga je teško uhvatiti kamerom. Ukrao mi je srce
Koji od ova dva laka bi vi radije nosile?

Till we meet again... love, Žana

New York, big city life

Hi my friends!

How do you do today? Hope everything is o.k. Today I'm wearing the second polish from Catrice's 'Big City Life' collection - New York. It's bluish-grayish, kinda petroleum color, lovely shade indeed. I applied two coats, no topcoat on pics. 
Kako ste mi danas? Nadam se dobro. Danas nosim drugi iz Catrice 'Big City Life' kolekcije - New York. Radi se o plavo-sivoj, petrolejastoj boji, meni zbilja krasnoj nijansi. Nanijela sam dva sloja, bez nadlaka. 



Oh, I love New York! But my had was splitting and hurt so bad, I tough I calm myself with some nail art... that works for me, maybe you should try it. This is what came up from this session. 
Vooooolim New York! Glava me rasturala danas, pa mi je palo na pamet malo se umiriti uz crtanje... meni djeluje, možda biste trebali probati. Ovo je krajnji rezultat.



It's not perfect, I'm not Maria, but I'm pretty happy with it. I'm only sorry that that darker shade of green, that I've used for the leafs, is not visible so much... What do you think of my New York in blossom?
Nije savršeno, nisam ja Maria, ali sam baš zadovoljna s ovim. Jedino mi je žao što se ova tamnija zelena koju sam koristila za lišće ne vidi baš... Onda, što kažete za moj New York u cvatu?

Till we meet again... love, Žana

Sydney, big city life


Hi my friends!

I have a great polish to show you today. It's Catrice 'Sydney' from 'big city life' collection. On the pics two coats with no topcoat.
Danas ima krasan lak za pokazivanje. Radi se o Catrice 'Sydney' iz 'big city life' kolekcije. Na fotkama su dva sloja bez nadlaka.





See how the color looks different on every picture? It's one of those purple-mushroom-taupe-greige colors, so classy and elegant, you just have to have one of this shades in your collection. When I polished the first coat, 'Merino cool' by Essie instantly came to my mind. By the looks of the bottles, 'Sydney' looks like a dupe of it, maybe 'Sydney' is a bit warmer.
Vidite kako boja izgleda drugačija na svakoj fotki? Ovo je jedna od onih ljubičasto-gljivasto-sivkastosmeđih boja, stvarno profinjenih i elegantnih, kakvu baš morate imati u svojoj kolekciji. Već nakon prvih par poteza kistom Essie 'Merino cool' mi je pao na pamet. Prema izgledu u bočicama 'Sydney' bi lako mogao biti duplić, možda malo toplija verzija. 


Later on, I did some stamping and mat topcoat... unfortunately, the topcoat smeared the design too badly, so you won't see it. I thought of swatching 'New York' from the same collection, but I like this one so I'll keep it on my nails, at least for today .
Kasnije sam se malo igrala pečatima i mat nadlakom... na nesreću, nadlak je totalno razmrljao uzorak pa te fotke nećete vidjeti. Mislila sam danas swatchati i 'New York' iz iste kolekcije, ali mi se ovaj baš sviđa pa ću ga još malo zadržati na noktima .

Till we meet again... love, Žana

Greenish



Hi my friends!

It's a busy, busy day so I'm gonna be short. I polished my nails with Butterfly collection nail polish, #99. It's a yellow jelly polish, I applied three coats and it's still transparent, dry speed - too long. I don't like this polish at all, but since it's on my nails, I've tried to do something with it... so the gradient cross my mind. Here it is - my saved manicure
Danas sam zauzeta drugim obavezama (i ugodama) pa ću biti kratka. Na noktima sam imala Butterfly collection lakić br. 99. Radi se o žutom jelly laku koji je i nakon tri sloja proziran, a i ako mene pitate predugo se suši. Nije mi se nimalo svidio... ali kad je već na noktima, ajde da ga probam spasiti... gradijent mi se učinio kao neloša ideja. I evo kako sam spasila stvar



Would you agree with me, is this saved manicure!?
Što vi kažete, jesam uspjela spasit manikuru!?

Shanghai red

Hi my friends!

It's time for a heavy artillery, and that means red! This one is Chanel's 'Shanghai red', lovely red color with a pink shimmer. It's been too long since I've wear red... too long. I applied two coats, with no topcoat. Gorgeous!
Vrijeme je za tešku artiljeriju, a to znači crvena! Na redu je Chanelov 'Shanghai red', krasna crvena s pinki shimmerom. Stvarno dugo nisam nosila crveno... predugo. Nanijela sam dva sloja, bez nadlaka. Krasan!



My nails are finally getting better, I think. They don't split so bad. Maybe they even grow up . Never mind the nails, I draw some dots on this polish, it's odd to have nails only in one color.
Čini mi se da mi nokti idu na bolje. Više se ne listaju tako strašno. Možda čak i narastu . Ma pustimo to, nabacila sam i malo točkica na lak, prečudno mi je imati nokte u jednoj boji. 


The topcoat smeared the designs but they look cute, note just my opinion, people told me so
Nadlak mi je malo razmazao točkice na prstenjaku, ali slatko je... ne mislim to samo ja, ljudi su mi rekli 

Would you said so?
Bi li i vi rekli tako?

Till the next time we meet... love, Žana

Genius In The Bottle


Hi my friends!

I have a real treat for you today! I know you've already seen this one, but not on my nails. It's Catrice's 'Genius In The Bottle', fabulous duochrome, Chanel's 'Peridot' dupe. I once read that the duochromes look the best when layered over black... so I did that - two coats over black, with topcoat.
Na redu je prava poslastica! Znam da ste ovog već svi vjerojatno vidjeli, ali ne i na mojim noktima. To je Catrice 'Genius In The Bottle', fantastičan duochrome, duplić Chanelovog Peridot-a. Jednom sam pročitala da duochromi najbolje izgledaju preko crnog laka, pa sam ga tako i nalakirala - dva sloja preko crnog, s nadlakom. 







The play of light on this polish is really something... when I started taking pics I just couldn't stop. After that I had to sit down and stare in my nails, I was bewitched... Well, after an hour, I decided to do something on it. The result is not so great, but I'll post it here anyway. 
Igra svjetlosti na ovom laku je stvarno nešto... kad sam krenula s fotkanjem nisam mogla stati. Nakon toga sam morala sjesti i buljiti u nokte, začarali su me... No, nakon sata, odlučila sam da ne bi bilo loše dodati još nešto. Rezultat i nije tako sjajan, ali evo ga. 




Too many pics? Noooooo, just enough
Previše fotki? Ma neeeee, tek dovoljno 

Till the next time we meet... love, Žana
