The Truest of Blues

Brrr!  I looked out of my window this morning to see a sheet of white covering the ground outside.  Sure, it may not have been the snow I'd wished for, but it was the best alternative - frost!  With multiple scarves wrapped around my head and neck (yes, really), I headed out to capture the beautiful frosty manicure I'd applied the night before - a combination of two calming blue shades by Jessica Nails, The Truest of Blues c/o.



The darker of the two blue shades is called Blue Moon and the lighter is known as Blue Skies (shown on third fingers).  I love switching up my nail colours and so after starting the New Year with nude nails, the dramatic colour change feels refreshing; particularly as it's not a shade I'm used to wearing on my nails - it's true what they say, variety is the spice of life!  Speaking of which, lately I've been darting between gold, silver and rose gold jewellery; stacking up gemstone rings and playing it safe with dainty chains.  On this occasion, I've opted for simplistic gold bands and Calvin Klein Impulsive Bracelet c/o from Bablas Jewellers, located in London's Wembley.  I was fortunate to have received the gold version before it sold out, however it's still available in a sophisticated silver version!

The combination of bold, blue nails, thin gold bands and a chic bracelet set off my day perfectly.  I've always felt as though the hands are the foundation of the appearance and without newly polished nails I feel incomplete.  So, many kisses to Jessica Nails for bringing out the gorgeous colour combination of The Truest of Blues and one with so many design options.  I can see myself adding an ombré effect to Blue Moon using gold glitter, or perhaps applying Blue Skies from left-to-right come the summer season!

With frost on the ground and blue fingers to match my blue nails, I returned indoors and curled up by the fire - hmm, I'm really starting to wonder whether I was a cat in a previous life.  Anyway, I hope you're all keeping warm and do let me know what you think of these shades, as well as what colour you're wearing on your nails right now!

With love,
