As we're now firmly heading into winter (sigh), I'm trying my best to put the pastels down and pick up some more winter appropriate shades; but it's hard. I just love pastel too much. However, I recently picked up one of the new Barry M Molten Metal shades (I love that range so much) and I just had to pair it with some gold baroque prints for a mani to rival your Nan's fanciest curtains.
I then stuck a matte top coat on top because why not and the end result is one of my favourite mani's ever. Who knew a matte top coat could transform a design into something else completely? It's not completely shine-less, it's more of a silk effect but it's making me stick a matte top coat on everything now.
I desperately need to pick up the XL version of the arabesque plate though as you can see these one didn't quite fit my nail. I did a bit of stamping trickery on my thumb to get an all over print but some of the designs can't be split.
