Work Wear Wednesday: Jelly Stamping

Press Sample


I am back today with another installment of Work Wear Wednesdays! This week I don't have a pictorial tutorial for you (sorry), but it is really simple. I have jelly sandwich stamping to share today! 









For this look you need a jelly polish. Jelly polishes are usually sheer but build able. I used Zoya Frida for this, it is a great teal jelly. I painted three layers of it and then added a quick dry top coat. Once that was totally dry, I stamped an image from the Born Pretty Store plate 05 (review coming soon) with a silver polish. Then I added another layer of Zoya. That was it! I really like the jelly sandwich effect. It is super easy and has a great look to it! I love jellies! This color may be a little bold for some offices, but you can substitute any color jelly! I hope you like this fun and simple work appropriate look. Stay tuned for my Born Pretty Store review of this plate soon!

  3. Wow! I see an ornate skeleton rib cage in this pattern, it is awesome. I feel like I can get away with a lot of weird colors at work as long as I do all the nails the same color, so I think this works :-)

  4. I thought so too, I wasn't sure if I was seeing things or not. I'm pretty sure it isn't supposed to be a skeleton though. Yeah, this one is pushing it a little with being work appropriate, but I really didn't want to do a sheer nude.

  11. How beautiful does Friday look over silver? The stamping is excellent, but if that's any indication I would love it just plain layered!

  13. I love it! I hereby declare that all offices should be more open-minded w.r.t. nail polish, because if they can't handle beauty like this...
