Today's manicure is inspired by the traditional red and gold Chinese fabric. I really love how this came out, and I love the fact that this was really easy to create thanks to the pretty floral stamping plate from Born Pretty Store.

For the base I applied two coats of Barry M Passion Fruit, which is an orange tinted red creme (It has a great formula, really good pigment and dries quite fast with a glossy finish. Love this collection!).
For the stamping I used Barry M Gold Foil (my favorite gold polish for stamping) and used the floral designs from the QA74 stamping plate from Born Pretty Store.

The QA74 plate has several matching floral designs, some smaller and some were large enough to cover the entire thumb, which was great for me since I have long and pretty wide nails. 

The patterns were etched nicely in the plate and they stamped flawlessly each time. I really loved this plate and I think it's a good find especially since it's only $1.99 now (don't forget to use my 10% discount code below). Even tho I have countless stamping plates with floral designs, I really loved this plate and I can see myself use it again with pleasure.

I hope you liked my Chinese inspired design, let me know what you think of it!

Thank you for reading!

Today I have another exciting post to share with you, featuring some breath-taking polishes by El Corazon from the Fireworks collection. There are just too amazing for words, I find it hard to describe how pretty they are and even pictures won't be able to capture their beauty.

El Corazon Fireworks collection includes 9 colors, all of these are equally gorgeous. They consist of a jelly formula, containing small holographic bar glitter which sparkle beautifully both in the sun and in shade. The four colors I received from the company for a review are all beautiful to my eyes, I find it hard to pick a favorite, and I'm sure you will love them as much as I do
I first saw this gorgeous collection first at Anna's blog, and it was hard to resist them. I can defiantly say it was love from first sight!
I was lucky to receive these four beautiful polishes for a review, and these are the colors in the pictures from Left to right: Fireworks № fw-02 (Black), № fw-05 (Blue toned purple), № fw-06 (Red toned purple) and № fw-03 (Berry).
I hope to share with you my swatches of these beautiful polishes soon!

Since it was hard to catch their beauty in still photos, I decided to make a short video with bottle shots of these four polishes so you can see how amazing the El Corazon Fireworks collection is in person.
Thank you for reading, hope you will enjoy this post and the video!
