Hey ladies, <\/span><\/div>\n
We were on a quick trip to New York City last week for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week writing some articles for\u00a0Chictopia<\/a>\u00a0and inspiration was all around us! We were able to attend over a dozen fashion shows and even though it’s not even Fall yet, we’re excited for the Spring trends that we see rolling out. One of my favourite prints ever is the elegant French classic, Toile de Jouy, and it was used generously in the Ruffian Spring\/Summer 2013 collection!<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Here’s our inspiration:
\n\"\"
\nrunway photos from <\/span>Style.com<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/span>
\nWhat you’ll need:<\/span>
\n– white base coat
\n– konad nail stamping kit: an image plate (m71), stamper and scraper
\n– blue konad special polish
\n– nail polish remover
\n– quick dry top coat<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/span>
\nStart with a few coats of your base colour and don’t worry if the coverage isn’t the greatest, it mostly gets covered anyway. My white polish is pretty chunky, so it looks ridgy but it doesn’t matter too much.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/span>
\nStart with your tools all within close reach. Take the special nail polish and cover the etched design that you want to use with a single coat. Then grab your scraper, apply even pressure while scraping off the excess polish.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"
\nAs quickly as you can, grab the rubber stamper tool and stamp down onto the design on the plate. You need to move fast just because the thin layer of polish remaining on the plate can dry up in a second!<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"
\nOnce the image is transfered onto the rubber stamp, you just need to roll the stamp onto your nail, pressing down hard so that the entire image transfers to your nail.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"
\nThen use some nail polish remover to clean off the excess from the image plate, stamp and scraper and repeat the above steps to cover each of your nails. There will probably be some stamped polish on the sides of your nails but you can just clean it up with some polish remover on a cotton swab.<\/span><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"
\nTop coat and you’re done! This Toile de Jouy look can also pass as a porcelain china effect! Either way, this fresh and dainty look is so eye catching you’ll be sure to get a ton of compliments!<\/span><\/div>\n
