Hellu ladies!

How are you? Is it as freakin' hot where you are as it is here in Austria? 2 weeks of hot weather now, it's exhausting...

Anyways, today I want to show you, what I did for Sabrina at Ssunnysideup for her birthday. I know, it's nearly a month ago... I'm sorry.

But here it is... finally!

Hellu ladies!

How has your weekend been? Did you see the last post from Robin's and my challenge? Just hop back one post or wait for the roundup post, I will hopefully launch this week!

Today I want to show you a polish, Robin from roaringnails sent me some time ago, when we swapped polishes.

Hellu ladies!

Today is the last prompt of Robin's and my challenge! Robin has already posted her interpretation which you can look up here! I think it turned out super cool!
I took inspiration from one of my favourite animated movie, book and comic book! What could this be you may ask?!
It's The Last Unicorn!

Hellu ladies!

Better late, than never, today's post is about my favourite Sci-Fi show! Believe me, it was tough, but I had an idea stuck in my mind for this prompt, for a very long time.
I did something completely different...
I will tell you soon, but now, let's see what I've done for you today!

Hellu ladies!

It's the first Sunday of Robins and my challenge. Todays post is inspired by our favourite Sci-Fi / Fantasy character and believe me, this was tough! I had to think really hard and there were so many that came to my mind.
But then, through the fog of my brain an angel came, or more an "Archangel" came, to rescue me...
(Some maybe got the hint already...)
I want to show you my true Sci-Fi love... Garrus Vakarian from Mass Effect.

Helluuu ladies!

Wow, it's been incredibly long since my last post, but I was so busy with my life outside blogging. I had a busy time at work and my private life was also very turbulent.
Anyways... I did something some time ago, inspired by my dear blogging friend Robin! I saw THIS post and boom inspiration hit me so hard!
But it's just inspired by the colors I think, because my mani isn't a copy as you can see! Now, let's take a look and I will also share the secret behind this unbelievable simple design!

Hey ladies!

I promised to show you my gold flakes topper from O.P.I. called Don't Speak over white, some time ago. Here it is!

Helluuu ladies!

I'm not in blogger heaven and I hope you missed me!
I'm really sorry for my absence, but I have a busy life outside the blogging world at the moment. Hopefully I can post more now!

Today I have a ruffian manicure for you, done with polishes from the O.P.I. - Fifty Shades of Grey Collection!

Hey ladies!

Today is a special day for a special blogger friend of mine! It's Robin's birthday, from roaringnails.

I'm honest, I didn't make something solely for her, but I have decided to post this unposted mani and dedicate it to her. It's simple but very elegant!
Let's take a look, shall we?

Helluuuu ladies!

Today I want to show you the design I did for my fiancè's birthday, which was at the beginning of January.

Hey ladies!

Today I have a gradient manicure for you! Again!
I saw something similar on Instagram lately, but I wanted to give it some more spice!
So, here we are!

Hey ladies!

The year 2014 is nearly over so I decided to show you my polish favourites of this year!
They are all favourites of different reasons and if I had more time, there would be more. But I decided to choose these!

Hey ladies!

Are you a fan of 50 Shades of Grey by E.L. James? Have you read the books?
No? Then you are a real rarity! :)
I confess, I'm a big fan of the series. Next to fantasy I'm a fan of paranormal romance and sometimes I like to read erotic literature. Yes, I know, normally those books are not very sophisticated, but I love love-stories and I doesn't mind, if they are a bit... ahem... juicy. :)
Today I want to show you a polish from the upcoming O.P.I. - 50 Shades of Grey Collection!

Hey ladies!

I recently found a little treasure in Vienna! It is a small O.P.I. Salon! Can you believe this?? The owner and her mother are really nice people and we talked about nail art and polish. I will definitely visit this shop more often. The most exciting about this visit? I got a fresh bottle of My Boyfriend scales Walls (she said, it's her last and she doesn't think she will get them anymore) and a bottle of the new 50 Shades of Grey Collection (I will show you this one in another post soon)!!
But now, I want to show you Comet in the Sky from the Gwen Stefani Holiday Collection, which I also bought there!

Hy lovlies!

I know you are all very attentive, so you have noticed that I'm engaged since the 10th of October.
Yes, my sweet boyfriend asked me to marry him and he did everything just perfect at the proposal. I had the full romantic package - delicious dinner, lots of candles when we came back home and he even was on his knee, with the ring in his hand, when he asked me!
I was speechless, but managed to say YES.
Last week I celebrated with my parents and sister and I wore a beautiful dress for lunch. And crazy for nail art as I am, I had to match my nails with my dress. So, here we go!

Hey lovely ladies!

I'm so sorry, that I didn't post much these last few weeks. I was super busy with this 31DC2014 challenge and I'm so happy I did every single one! Yay, for nail art!
So I proudly present the finisher badge, which comes from Chalkboardnails!

Hey lovlies!

I've been busy doing my nails for the 31DC2014 these last weeks, but I thought I'll share it here with you two.
To keep up daily, just follow me on Instagram @frankie.hunters.nails or on tumblr @frankiehuntersnails .

Hey lovlies!

Today is the first day of the 31 Day Challenge 2014 brought to you by Chalkboardnails.

Today's theme is RED! I've done a design inspired by the nail polish from Christian Louboutin (follow the link to see the bottle!).

I would never buy this polish myself, because I don't like red nails that much. It looks weird to me, eventhough I don't know why... Anyways, I really liked this look, it's classy and vampy!

Used polishes and tools:
Essie - A-list
O.P.I. - Black Cherry Chutney
G&G - HK Girl top coat
Make-up sponge for the gradient

The O.P.I. polish was a bit hard to work with, because when I sponged it on, it was too sheer. I had to do sponge at least five times to get this opaque look. But I didn't want to use black, because I think it would've been a too hard contrast.

This is a very picture heavy post, because I made this some weeks before the challenge started and had more time to take pictures and edit them! I don't think there will be as much pictures in the upcoming posts! :-)

This was day 1! How do like the look?

Heyyy ladies!!

Start cheering, because it's my 100th post today! I kept this special number for a special mani. I will also participate at Nailpolis 1.000.000 Facebook fans contest with this.
When I browsed through the designs who already entered, I was thinking hard, what I want to do. At first I thought, yeah maybe some glitter or a fun skittlette. But then inspiration hit me and a thought - no, do something with a technique you adore, with colors you love and nail art tools that are awesome. So go and see my multicolored gradient featuring white stripes done with my beloved nail vinyls!

Hey lovlies!

A few days ago I bougth Essie - find me an oasis, from this years Summer collection. When I saw swatches of it I didn't intend to buy it, because all swatcher were complaining about the consistency. But as I'm desperatly searching for a heir to my beloved O.P.I. - My boyfriend scales walls, I thought I give it a chance.
I applied it and did THIS with it, as you may know. I thought: "Hey, this looks exactly like MBSW!".
But to proof if I'm right I applied them next to each other and the result was, that they are not the same (surprise! I'm not colorblind!).
So I took all my "off-white's" and made a comparison swatch for you!
