Zoya Lake and Born Pretty Store Dandelion Water Decals

*decals provided for an honest review*

*polishes were purchased*

Hello my sweet friends!  Today I have some very easy nail art to share from Born Pretty Store and a color I purchased from Zoya's newest transitional collection, Whispers.  I love dandelions in nail art and I'm so excited I get to rock them in the easiest way possible!

Born Pretty Store was nice enough to send me a few items to review, and share my honest thoughts on.  The first item I chose were these adorable water decals in different whispy dandelion patterns.  This was my first ever experience with water decals, and they were so easy to use!  These are the Flying Dandelion design (item 20604) and they're under $2.00!!

For this look I used Lake from the new Zoya collection, Whispers.  I think I preordered this set the day it can out.  All these dusty pastels speak to me and I can't say no to them.  Lake is a very greyed out blue with just a tiny tinge of green to it.  This was 2 coats with a very nice formula.  Once Lake was dry, I used the water decal as an accent and later used OPI Pirouette My Whistle as a pinky accent.

The designs in the Born Pretty decal sheet are very detailed and sharp and I love that you get single designs + whole nail options.
To use them, I cut out the flower design I wanted and dipped it in warm water for about 15 seconds with tweezers.  The design slid right off the backing and I smoothed in place with a damp fingertip.  Let it dry for 1-2 minutes then topcoated it.  Super easy!
I highly recommend these and will definitely be using them in lots of Spring manis!

Shade - Lake leans so pretty in the shade :)

Polish & Posies: Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer - Siren's Summer Vacation

**Polish in this post was purchased by me with a small blogger discount**

I think it is safe to say that you have seen me pose with various flora from my own garden as well as my parents'. I was thinking of starting a small series called Polish & Posies, where I will feature a polish that matches or coordinates with a flower or plant. What do you think? Let's try it out, shall we?

I try not to feature a polish that is not currently available in a store or indie shop, but I have to make an exception here! I love it when a polish matches the flowers so I had to share this beauty!

This is a limited edition polish created by Blue-Eyed Girl Lacquer. Siren's Summer Vacation is described as a neon purple with turquoise, pink, and purple glass flecks. It dries to a matte finish, but I preferred a shiny finish so it is shown with a coat of Rica's Glossy Glam over it. 

I think this Siren likes petunias!

This Siren applied like a dream on both my tips and toes and was opaque in two average coats. Overall, I adore this shade. I've had many compliments on my pedi polish the last few weeks, which just happens to be Siren's Summer Vacation! People seemed to enjoy the name too, agreeing that it feels nice and Summery. I wonder where Siren goes for her Summer vacation?

I know Summer will soon be drawing to a close, but what are your current favorite shades for summer fun? Let me know in the comments and enjoy every last ray of that Summer sunshine!
