SHADE OF THE DAY sprinkled with gold

Wearing nude nail polish shades is the only option for me recently, which is kind of strange, since I opt for darker shades the second when colder days step in.

Having said that though, my gravitation towards my all time fav nude nail polish KIKO 372 is no surprise. To make it a bit more autumn-y I pimped it with Orly gold glitter:

Kljub temu, da nas jesen že razvaja s svojimi barvami - kar v meni vedno prebudi željo po temnih barvah za nohte, jaz že nekaj časa vztrajam pri kožnih tonih. Prav nobene presenečenje torej ni, da je moj predragi KIKO 372 zopet na udaru. Vseeno sem ga popestrila z zlatimi bleščicami Orly Too Fab, za jesenski pridih:

I needed one coat of each and Seche Vite as a topcoat /

Uporabila sem po eno plast vsakega laka, ter Seche Vite kot nadlak 

My all time creamy-golden inspiration has to be a part of MSGM collection. Gorgeous mix of materials, layering, sequined skirt over skinny pants (as one of the hottes trends this season) pops of metallic and lots more.

V tej barvni kombinaciji modna inspiracija dela kolekcije MSGM ne bi mogla biti lepša in bolj navdihujoča. Kombinacija materialov, plastenja, uporabe krila preko hlač (eden najbolj vročih trendov to sezono), metaličninh poudarkov in še in še:

SHADE OF THE DAY golden nude

Todays manicure is a bit more neutral but with a glittery twist. I did an ombre effect, spreading from the root of the nail and up, this time with Orly glitter nailpolish Too fab:

Za današnjo manikuro sem se odločila za nekaj nevtralnega, a z malce bleščečega pridiha. Tokrat sem ombre efekt ustvarila z Orly bleščicami, ki so se razprostirale od korena nohta proti sredini.

I needed two coats of Kiko 372 and one coat of Orly Too fab glitters /

potrebovala sem dve plasti Kiko 372 in eno Orly Too fab bleščic

If I have to express one, who is the master of nudes, mixing glitters and elegance, without doubt must be elie saab. Creations which make every woman, weather a model or not, a true princes, stressing a woman silhouette, softness and fragility in the most beautiful possible way. My dream of someday wearing a dress like this ones, is for now only my dream and inspiration.
As far as makeup goes, Giambattista valli vent with nude glow eye look and the one and only Chanel, went with big chunky glitter, making a cat winged eye with them.

V kolikor moram zbrati eno hišo, ki mojstrsko ovija bleščice, nevtralne tone v eleganco, je to brez dvoma elie saab. Obleke, ki vsako žensko ne glede na to ali je model ali ne! na najlepši možni način spremenijo v princesko, ki ji poudari silhueto, nežnost in mehkobo. Sanjam, da bom nekega dne imela takšno obleko na sebi, do takrat pa so to moje sanje in inspiracija.
Bleščice pa so letos in tudi na očeh. Giambattista valli je oči poudaril z nevtralnim mokrim videzom, chanel pa je iz velikih bleščic ustvaril linijo, in po mačje poudaril oko.

SHADE OF THE DAY Minty grapes

Despite not feeling summer neon colors on my nails anymore, I decided to go for my this years fav neon China Glaze Highlight of my summer one last time. This time in combination with purple Kiko 331.

Nažalost me je mrzlica po neon poletnih lakih že minila, a za zadnjič sem se odločila za meni najljubši neon odtenek China Glaze Highlight of my summer, tokrat v kombinaciji z vijoličnim Kiko 331.

I needed two thin coats for both nailpolishes / Za oba odtenka, sem potrebovala dve tanki plasti.

*SHADE OF THE DAY* Aqua purple

Lack of true spring or even summer days, woke up my huge love for pastels. And since I couldnt decide which one I should pick, I went with both and made a duo colored mani, like I did a few times back, with other colors here and here. I love the outcome! Here are Kiko and China glaze For Audrey.

Pomanjkanje pravih pomladnih oz. že poletnih dni, je v meni vzbudilo hudo željo po pastelih. In ker se nisem mogla odločit katerega bi imela, sem tako kot že nekajkrat prej (tukaj in tukaj), nanesla kar oba. Izpadlo je super, tukaj sta Kiko  in China glaze For Audrey.

Thinking about this color for summer? Combine it like Matthew Williamson or pick them in metallic version as this gorgeous Burberry dress. Makeup weise sparkle this colors like Dior or color your eyes in cold blue shades like Joy Cioci did.

V kolikor ste ljubiteljice teh barv za poletje, potem jih pokombinirajte kot jih je Matthew Williamson ali pa izberite te barve v metaličnih odtenkih, kot je ta krasna Burberry obleka. Oči pa v teh barvah krasite z bleščicami, kot so storili pri Diorju, lahko pa ustvarite ledeno mrzel pogled, kot je to naredil Joy Cioci.

*NAIL ART* leaking green

Very last post, representing Ivan Rasic handmade jewelry. This time with leaking manicure, which is a big nail trend this year, also hand drawn by himself, while my stay in Milan. Take a look:

Zadnja objava v sodelovanju z Ivanom Rasicem in njegovim ročno izdelanim nakitom. Tokrat je na mojih nohtih ustvarjal tudi manikuro in tukaj je rezultat:

One coat of KIKO 240 and green H&Ms Polish me happy.
Uporabljena je ena plast KIKO 240 in H&M Polish me happy.

Prabal Gurung was the one that sent leaking manicure on runway and made a nail trend for ss2013 with it. If thinking of wearing forest green, just put your fav red lipstick on and you are ready to go just like Prada did.

Prabal Gurung je ustvaril tako manikuro za modno revijo ss2013 in iz nje napravil pravi trend. Če razmišljaš o temno zeleni obleki, pa jo skominiraj le s krasno rdečo šminko, kot so to naredili pri Pradi.

*NAIL ART* Etno Print nail art

Its my first year  spending easter time away from home and instead of coloring and painting eggs, me and my friend Ivan Rasic decided to make some fun decorations on my nails instead. Etno print is going to be huge this upcoming ss, so he decided to paint my nails with this print and also matching his jewelry collection. Take a look:

Prvič velikonočnih praznikov ne praznujem doma in namesto barvanja in ustvarjanja na pirhih sem se s prijateljem odločila dekorirati moje nohte. =) Etno print bo velik trend v prihajajoči, zato je Ivan Rašič na moje nohte narisal ta print, ki se tudi ujema z njegovo kolekcijo nakita.

Ivan used KIKO taupe as a base, ChG Kinetc blue in KIKO pink, golden flakes and black marker.
Ivan je uporabil KIKO tupe brveza bazo, ChG Kinetc blue in KIKO pink, zlate lističe in črn flomaster.

Talking about etno/aztec prints, this is some the looks from the runway:
In ko smo že pri etno/azteških printih, tukaj je kolaž slik, kjer je bil print uporabljen na modnih pistah:

*SHADE OF THE DAY* Pink blue

No doubt I LOVE nail polishes but cant hide the fact of having a huge obsession with rings too. They are definitely my favorite fashion accessories. Happy to share my friends work who make amazing jewlery with you guys. Here is a gorgeous pink-blue KIKO manicure with amazing ring handmade by Ivan Rasic.

Ni dvoma, da so laki za nohte moja velika ljubezen, a ne morem mimo dejstva, da so tudi prstani moja velika obsesija in brez dvoma najljubši modni dodatek. In srečna sem, da lahko tukaj predstavim ročno izdelane prstane mojih prijateljev, ki jih imam čast nositi. Danes krasna pinkblue KIKO manikura in krasen ročno izdelan prstan od Ivana Rašiča.

I used one coat of pink 299 KIKO nail polish and the coats of blue one 313.
Uporabila sem 1 plast pink laka in 2 plasti modrega laka. Ker KIKO lakov ni v Sloveniji, sem našla zamenjave: Pink, isto pigmentiran z 1 plastjo OPI Pink Flamenco, podoben moder OPI Tommorow never dies.

As said in previous posts fuchsia lips are going to be huge this ss, but I also found some great looks from the runway including deep blue and pink on the eyes.
Vroča pink na ustnicah bo letos velik trend (prejšnji posti), danes pa sem iskala trende, ki vključujejo globoko temno modro in pink na očeh.

*SHADE OF THE DAY* Bright orange

Dont know exactly why, but I know a lot of people who dont like orange nail polishes. I have to say I love em. I think that bright orange with creamy finish flatters my hands a lot and make such fresh appearance. This time I used KIKO but unfortunately dont know the nmb of it. It reminds me a lot of OPI A roll in the Hauge.

Poznam veliko ljudi, ki se ne počutijo dobro z oranžnimi nohti, jaz moram reči, da mi je izgled mojih rok z oranžnim lakom za nohte zelo všeč. Izgledajo tako sveže in krasno urejene. Tokrat sem uporabila KIKO, žal pa ne vem št., a me zelo spominja na OPI A roll in the Hauge.

It matches with my new ring, handmaded by Jelena Radenkovic:
Krasno se poda z mojim novim prstanom, ročno delo Jelene Radenkovic:

This ss you wont go wrong with just putting a bright lipstick on. Orange was seen a lot on ss2013 runways.
Letos se bo vse vrtelo okrog usnic in pomarančne ustnice so bile na kar nekaj revijah za pomladpoletje 2013.

*SHADE OF THE DAY* Aqua blue

Feeling like wearing aqua blue. Didn't know which color to go with and I went with both. I love how it looks and think I will do manicures of that kind alot in the future. =)

Dan ko sem se počutila za azurno-modre nohte in ker nisem vedela kater lak bi bil boljši, sem uporabila oba. Res mi je všeč kako izgleda na rokah, zato sem prepričana, da bodo take manikure na blogu postale stalnica. =)

*SHADE OF THE DAY* KIKO 320

Ever since I can remember, Im a huge taupe nailpolish lover, therefore KIKO 320 ranged high up on my list to try it out while staying in Milan. I feel its a great dupe for LE OPI Parlez cous OPI, cause of high musky liliac undertones:

Kar se tiče lakov za nohte, sem od vedno bila velika ljubiteljica taupe odtenkov. Zamolkla lilasivorjavast ostenek kiko 320 je bil zato visoko na listi odtenkov, ki sem jih želela preizkusiti. Ker ima odtenek kar močan zadimljenolila podton me zelo spominja na LE OPI Parlez vous OPI. 

Two thin layers for full opacity.
Dve tanki plasti sta bili popolnoma dovolj. =)

Sad to say I had difficulties finding trends for the upcoming ss including taupe shades. So this is what I found:
Nažalost letošnji trendi za prihajajočo pomlad/poletje ne vključujejo veliko taupe barve. Vseeno sem našla nekaj zanimivega:

*SHADE OF THE DAY* Kiko 262

Love browsing through friends nailpolish racks and trying new shades, so while staying in Milano I want to try all KIKO nailpolishes my friends own. This time I used KIKO 262:

Vedno kadar sem pri prijateljih se zapodim v njihove zbirke lakov za nohte in dokler bom v Milanu sem se odločila, da preizkusim prav vse KIKO lake, kar jih imajo. Danes je na vrsti 262:

First layer is pretty sheer, but it builds great with the second layer. Purple with dark fuchsia undertones and bluepink shimmer. Dried very fast.
Prva plast je zelo redka, ki pa se super prekrije z drugo plastjo. Vijolična z fuksija podtoni in modrordečim shimmrom. Posušil se je zelo hitro.

Yo know how much I love purple lips and it makes me so happy that the trend for ss13 is going to be aswell:
Moja ljubezen do vijoličnih ustnic je vse večja in trend se bo vlekel tudi v pomlad/poletju.

*SHADE OF THE DAY* cherry red Kiko 240

My fav deep cherry red with a jellycreamy finnish has to be China Glaze Winter Berry from holiday collection 2011. But I have a feeling that this KIKO 240 is a dupe for it. A dont have my China Glaze with me, so I couldn't do a comparison, but I feel its very similar. Take a look:

Moj najljubši češnjevo rdeč odtenek z jellycreamy finišem je brez dvoma China Glaze Winter berry iz novoletne kolekcije iz leta 2011. Žal le tega nimam ob sebi, da bi naredila primerjavo, a imam občutek, da sem našla njemu čisto podobnega. Kiko 240:

I could do only one coat because its so opaque, but I did two super thin ones and use no topcat nor drip dry, and left with such shiny finnish. And I love the fact that Kiko dries so fast.
Lak je zelo pogmentiran in bi brez dvoma lahko nanesla le 1 plat, pa sem raje nanesla dve čisto tanki. Sijaj je brez nadlaka in drip dry kaplic in še posušil se je s svetlobno hitrostjo.

Speeking of gorgeous red ... Here is my new baby MAC RED lipstick.
In ko smo ravno pri rdeči ... Vam predstavljam še moj novo lepotico, MAC RED.

*SHADE OF THE DAY* Milan memories

Every time I start to miss Milan I reach for one of the nailpolishes I bought there. That way I kind of get connected with it and calm myself a little bit. Funny but its true. =)

So here is Kiko 372 again. Without doubt my fav nude shade EVER. And since Kiko is not available in Slovenia, OPI Dont Pretzel my buttons is the most similar to it if you like it as much as I do. =)
And to pimp it a bit, I stampped Konad image from plate m70 with Konad silver nailpolish. =)
