I thought it was time to branch out. This is my left hand using Creative L&P. YN glitter & ice mylar, Ezflow glitter, bronze bullion, Yn netting.

I'm really surprised at how easy these are to wear!

I really like the colours and the shape is nice, I think they would look better with a bit more nail bed.
 
well... I've been training in stillettos for a while, either Russian either "competition" like...
so well.

there are things you must do in both.. the nail bed extension. basically when you start, you put your form, and you see the spike, and your smile line has to be deep to "fit" with the spike.

plus the sides (that I cannot parallels for obvious reaons) have to be straight. once you do that, you'll notice how slimmer it makes your fingers (and therefor hand) look.

except these 2 details, I totally agree with you, they're so easy to get used to and wear, I cannot seem to go back to another shape.
and I quite like the nail art. original, summer-ish...
 
I love them i would be happy to wear these.
 
I agree with what has been said, they would look more balanced and 'elegant' if the nail plate was extended a little bit. The shape and design is nice, but for me personally, im not too keen on the colours. but thats because im a pinky girl!! lol.

well done for posting!! :D

oh, and also, how on eaaarth do you not poke your eye out?!?! lol. I would most definately be blind after an hour of wearing them!! hehe.
 
These are fab
I love the colours and would be more than happy to wear a set (providing I didnt poke anyone or myself with them lol)
:lol:
 
Love the color combo! :green:

ha ha lol...

I wear lenses and NEVER hurt my eyes with stillettos!

it's a matter of habit, really. but once you are used to it, you cannot change ;) but you need to go step by step ;);)
 
love the colours, they look like treasure. particularly like the little squiggle you did with the bullion.
it think they would look even nicer if you extended the nail bed area or maybe even fade the colour so there is no abrupt line as it seems to visually shorten the 2nd and 3rd zones.
very nice.
 
Very bling ... lovely.
 
I love the colours....really nice.
Extended nail bed would have made them look longer and sleeker though. Hope you don't mind me saying x
 
They look great i am yet to have a go at stilettos i like your colours x
 
They are lovely, wish I could find someone near to me to do them.
Love the colours.
Lotysa luv x :hug:
 
Thank you for your positive comments and guidance. :hug:

These were my first set so I know I still have a long way to go. Next set I will lengthen the nailbed and deepen the smile line.:)

Katelisa - I actually didn't sleep well the first night with these coz I was too aware of not poking myself in the face, LOL

You guys are great!

regards,
Kate
 
i totally agree with the others regarding the nailbed but the design is actually stunning and i am sure that they have a lot of bling in real life :green:
 
The colours used are quite interesting and work well together, an extended nail bed would have given them a sleeker apperance IMO
Your line of light is lovely as is the shine.
Well done and thanks for posting :hug:
