NOTD: Ruby Pumps and Golden Flames

November 08, 2012

Today I felt like wearing the good old sparkly red - China Glaze Ruby Pumps. I think it's my all time favorite polish! I love a good red and this one sparkles like crazy! It has a gorgeous depth and it's just a great polish from every aspect. I added the golden flames to create a fire-like look but for some reason it makes me think of a circus :) I love this mani and I'm pretty pleased right now, and I find myself staring at my nails a lot lol.

I used two coats of China Glaze Ruby Pumps and applied one coat of Poshe. Then I stamped with Barry M Gold Foil using Cheeky CH52 plate - I only used half of the design to create this look. To finish it all I added another coat of Poshe (Ruby Pumps can be a but dull without a proper top coat, so I felt like applying to coats, one before stamping and once after).

When I took the photos, I couldn't decide which ones I liked better - the ones in direct sunlight or in the shade. In direct sunlight the color is bright and strong, as in the shade the beautiful glitter shows better but the picture itself is a bit dull. So I decided to put both of the shots I took so you could help me to decide what's prettier :)
