Happy Mothers Day to all you mothers out there!!!!
Let me just start off saying, that this mani is all Jacks idea. When he saw my new Urban Decay polishes, he grabbed this one, and said "oooohhh, you can do Cadillac nails, because it's just like the paint job you see on them." Haha, he is too cute. So, I figured I would try it out.
I started with 2 coats of China Glaze White on White. Oh and as you probably noticed, I nubbinized my nails. They were just getting so long, and I was terrified I would do serious harm to them, and well me. I had already scratched myself and others numerous times, eeek. I'm also going camping at the end of the month, so I figured I will try and keep them semi short for the trip.
I then did just 1 coat of Urban Decay Fluorescent. It really is pretty. Just the slightest pearlized color to it.
Hope you guys are all having a great weekend!!
Nice combo ! I wouldn't try that because of my skin tone, white is terrible on me, but it's pretty on you :)
ReplyDeletePretty :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I've only just discovered your blog but already I'm addicted! I'm a complete beginner (I can only do polka dots right now) but I can't wait to try some of your tape manis! (And hopefully start my own blog when my nail designs get good enough!)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great manicure and so simple to do. It looks fabulous on your 'nubbinized' nails. ;) Haha.

ReplyDeleteVery coolas always!
ReplyDeleteHe was right, that is exactly what you see on Cadillacs.
ReplyDeleteJack gets so many cool points for saying that. I like this mani!
ReplyDeleteI love the Urban Decay on top!
ReplyDeleteReally pretty! The top coat is adds such a cool element to it!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty :) I have a bunch of Urban Decay polishes I have to start using!
ReplyDeleteWow. My uncle used to have Cadillac that EXACT color!!! I like that nail length - not nubby to me! I'd love for mine to be that length, but they always break before they all get there.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA, it DOES look like a Cadillac! : D
ReplyDeleteHappy Mother's Day to you, Erika! : )
Now that's a white I'd wear! Very grownup and sexy.
ReplyDeleteIm almost positive I couldnt pull off white polish, but this looks absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeletexxx
Thats a nice look....but wow girl you are neat, how do you do your clean up especially for it to looks so tidy near your cuticles
ReplyDeleteI really like this look. I would love to get my nails as long as your "nubbinized" version, lol. I am so hard on my nails, I do good to get them to the tips of my fingers.
ReplyDeleteI loooove your nails! They're the perfect shape! Of all the nail polish blogs i read, yours is my favorite! I'm from the Philippines, and good nail polishes are hard to come by, plus they're a bit pricey.
ReplyDeleteGreat color, never seen it before!
ReplyDeleteI love cadillacs :D love this color and I'm wearing almost the same color, only a bit more white.
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone!!!

PicklesandPlums, thank you so much! I actually don't do any kind of clean up, that is just how I polish, but that made my day, so thanks!!

Your hubby is a lifesaver! I'm not able to buy a Cadillac and I love that color. Since you blogged this idea, I can now have my Cadillac white! Thank you!
