Victorian Flowers
I was in a summery mood and wanted to do something pretty and girlie. I looked through my stash and pulled out some decals that I got from Viva la Nails. They are very elegant roses and I picked a nice peachy orange base to go with it.
This is 2 coats China Glaze Peachy Keen as a base. I topped that with 2 coats Savvy Magic Pumpkin. Then I used the rose water decals from Viva la Nails along with some of their small gold rhinestones on the thumb and ring finger. Topped everything off with Seche Vite.
How pretty is that? This mani felt very elegant. And it reminded me of the victorian era, which I love. I felt very pretty wearing this, hehe. Application of both polishes was good. The China Glaze went on nice and smooth and gave good coverage. The Savvy is really cool looking, but not very pigmented, which is why I used the ChG base. I just love the shimmer and yellow and green flash it gave the mani. Made it much more interesting.

@funnyfacebeauty - thank you! Peachy Keen was on the fence for me... it's a little more orange than I'd hoped, but it worked very well for this.
