Today and tomorrow, I have a couple of looks to share that I did with Deborah Lippmann polishes. I was entranced by the Mermaid collection, what with the glitter and shimmer and stuff. I picked up a couple of those and a few others when they went on sale
Do The Mermaid is purple with purple microglitter. Yum.
Pretty. Right up my alley, as it were.
I also picked up Deborah Lippmann Stormy Weather, a grey creme. I'm glad I got it on sale. It's... okay. Nothing to write home about, and I love grey cremes. Not bad, I'm saying. Just nothing special for the hefty price tag, either.
I did a French tip first, and then added the stripe down the middle. Not sure what I was going for. Something abstract, I'm sure. Maybe I was drinking that night? Seems rather silly, now. ;)

Have you ever done a manicure and later, when you looked at it (or a pix) you wondered what you were thinking?
Love the purple shade!
ReplyDeleteThe purple is a fave for me, too!
DeleteHello beautiful! I love that purple.
ReplyDeleteMe, too. I love the light with bits of dark purple.
DeleteThat purple is super pretty!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I'm glad I bought it!
DeleteWhat a gorgeous shade! Love it!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is a high-end polish that is def. worth it in my opinion.
DeleteThe art ended up looking sort of like an anchor!
ReplyDeleteLOL, I saw that, too! Nail art so easy, you won't even realize you're doing it...
DeleteWhat a beautiful lavender crelly, I want it now! :)
ReplyDeleteI think it's worth it. On sale, at least! lol
DeleteThat purple is stunning!
ReplyDeleteDebbie, she does Do The Mermaid! lol
DeleteGorgeous swatches!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I know I can't compete with the ladies who have long fingers and nails... so I don't! I just do me, and I'm glad you like the swatch! :)
DeleteI like the purple a lot.
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my fave glitters.
DeleteI should really be kind to my nails this year and start painting 'em pretty! I love the purple lacquer, it's so dainty.
ReplyDeleteWith your fabulous face, it's okay if no one is looking at your nails! :) That hourglass lippie you have on your blog today looks amazing on you.
DeleteI haven't the faintest idea why, but I'm absolutely drawn to the grey.. love it!
ReplyDeleteI was, too, even though I have many greys.. I think it's the name.. and the color... it's everything but the price!
DeleteI have both of those and I think Stormy Weather is one of the most beautiful cremes I've used.
ReplyDeleteMaybe I need to do a mani with Stormy Weather as the base, and see if it changes my mind...
DeleteI looked at my mani yesterday and thought that! LOL Love Do the Mermaid, I also love Stormy Weather, it's in my stash!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Good to know it happens to the best of us!
DeleteI like what you did with the two but I really love Do the Mermaid all on its own!
ReplyDeleteI like it better on its own, too. Sometimes I need to edit myself! I'm always adding just one..more..thing...
DeleteI love the Mermaid! It looks awesome with Stormy Weather!
ReplyDeletePurple and grey = <3 but I'm not sure that Do The Mermaid doesn't shine more on its own.
DeleteDo The Mermaid is just gorgeous. (Sheila, Painted Ladies)
ReplyDeleteAll the purples! Wait, all the Mermaids! both! lol
