Spring Floral Nails using China Glaze "The Arrangement" Collection | NailsByErin

Hi everyone!

Today's nail art is perfect for spring: a simple floral design using China Glaze's new spring collection, the Arrangement!

This is a gorgeous collection with such a diverse group of colors and I was so excited to receive it after eyeing it on social media for so long. Thank you, China Glaze!

Let's get into the design and the colors I used...

Gold Daisy Nails | NailsByErin

Hi everyone!

Today's post is a simple nail art design.... and basically a re-imagining of one of my favorite designs from about 2 and a half years ago.

I did a white and gold daisy nail design almost identical to this one, but I decided to recreate it since I've really been loving simple and elegant nail art like this lately. Not to mention this style is all over Instagram and Pinterest... so definitely not original, but I'm really happy with how this one turned out!

Keep on reading for more info on these polishes and how I did this design....

Mint and Rose Gold Floral Nails | NailsByErin

Hi everyone!

Today I have another floral design to share with all of you. These are some of my favorite manis to do! I incorporated some of my favorite polishes and designs into this one.

I have been really missing doing my simple geometric designs lately, and since you all loved my Rose Gold X Nails so much, I figured I would try another rose gold pattern. I actually pulled some inspiration for this from my Purple and Gold Floral Nails from a few years ago, where I did a white and purple floral nail and had the leaves in a metallic gold.

I have always loved that design and I was hoping to re-vamp it into this color scheme and add a little bit more of a geometric accent to it using some nail vinyls.

Sheer White and Purple Floral Nails

Hello everyone!

Today I have a design that I really love to share with you all. I hope you're not tired of seeing florals yet! ;) This is an elegant purple floral design over a sheer, milky white base.

This week was the first official day of spring, and here in NJ we celebrated with.... snow. But this nail art is definitely getting me more and more excited for the beautiful spring weather!

Keep on reading to hear more about how I created this design.

Purple and Gold Floral Nails (Re-do!)

Hello everyone! 😄

Welcome back to my mani re-do series, haha. 

Today's recreation is of my Purple and Gold Floral nails from about a year ago! You all really loved this mani last time, and so did I. But my nails were so short back then!! I think the design looks a lot nicer now that my nails have grown out a bit.

You can check out my original post here, or keep reading to hear how I did this design!

Pink and Gold Floral Nails (Re-do!)

Hello everyone!

Hope you're all doing well. Sorry for my lack of blog posts! I'm back at college and will be posting a little less frequently. I've been working hard to not disappear like last year, but I still won't be posting as often as I do in the summer.

I've really been loving this series I've been doing on my blog recently where I re-do some of my most popular designs. So, I decided to continue it and re-do my Pink and Gold Floral Nails!

I did these in July of 2016, and they are one of my most popular manis to date. They're probably one of my most reposted pins on Pinterest!

When I did them last year, though, my nails were super short and now looking back, I'm not super happy with how the photos look! Now that my nails are longer I thought the design would look a lot nicer.

Negative Space Pink Floral Nails

Hello everyone!

Today I have this negative space mani to share with all of you. If you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen me post the white base for these nails yesterday! I asked what you thought I would be putting on top, and clearly you guys know me very well, haha 😂  Yup, it's floral!

I added some pink flowers and gold accents to this mani, and even though it didn't turn out exactly the way I had hoped, I'm still happy with how it turned out.

Floral Studded Nails | Sally Beauty

Hello everyone!

Today I have another nail design using products from Sally Beauty! And I'm so happy with how this one turned out :) I feel like its been so long since I did a floral design. I always end up loving these girly manis!

While on my Sally's haul, I picked up another Orly Breathable nail polish. This color, "Pamper Me" was just too pretty to pass up! It is a beautiful light pink creme. It is pretty much opaque in two coats, but I am wearing three thin coats on my pinky and index nails.

Beauty and the Beast (2017) Nails

Hello everyone! :) 

Happy St. Patrick's Day, but more importantly, happy Beauty and the Beast premiere day!!!!!

I have been so excited for this movie for months and I cannot wait to see it today!! Beauty and the Beast was one of my favorite movies growing up and Belle was always my favorite princess. To celebrate the premiere, I did some nail art inspired by the new live-action movie :)

Purple and Gold Floral Nails

Hello everyone!

Today I have another floral design to share with you. I guess I've been on a floral kick lately haha :) But I'm really happy with how this design came out!

One of my favorite nail polish colors is Color Club "Holy Chic!". It is such a gorgeous cool-toned purple, and it is perfect in two coats! I used that as the base for my floral nails. I also wanted to add some metallic accents to this design so I used Salon Perfect "Gold Leaf" for the gold parts of this design.

LLP #BestieTwinNails: Matte Daisy Nails

Hello everyone!

Today's nail art is Bestie Twin Nails (Bestie Quadruplet Nails...?) with Carmen (@ineedamani), Jess (@frecklepusnails), and Sonia (@badgirlnails) at Live Love Polish. Yesterday I took a trip to their new office, and we decided to have matching nails!

Pink and Gold Floral Nails

Hello everyone!

Today I have a super girly design to share with all of you.

I was just kind of brainstorming some nail art the other day, and I decided that I wanted to do a nail art design that incorporated chevrons! A few years ago, chevrons on my ring finger was literally every other mani for me. Haha I am still obsessed with this look, but I haven't done any chevron nail art in so long.

I am so in love with how this design came out!

**Also, I recently made a Facebook page! Click here to check it out and please be sure to give it a like :)

White and Gold Daisy Nails

Hello everyone!

Today I have this super simple daisy mani to share with all of you. I've seen this sort of style before from a lot of other nail artists, so I decided to do my own take on it! I really love how chic and cute it came out.

I have been wanting to do some more floral designs lately, but I wanted something quicker than hand painted roses. This is such a quick and easy mani to do, which makes it a perfect floral design for nail art beginners!

Black and White Floral Nails | Daniel Wellington Collaboration and Discount Code!

Hello everyone!

Today I have a little bit of a different post for all of you, and I am really excited to share it with you!

A few weeks ago I got an email from Johanna at Daniel Wellington, and she asked if I would like to collaborate with them again! You might remember from about a year ago that I did some nail designs with one of their watches. You can check out my other two posts with Daniel Wellington here.

**Daniel Wellington has been kind enough to give you all a discount code for 15% on www.danielwellington.com! The code is NAILSBYERIN. It expires on June 15th!**

This time, I picked out a smaller and simpler watch: the Classy Sheffield 26mm watch in silver. I love this watch because it can go with anything! It is simple and classic and I can see myself wearing this with so many outfits. It has a black leather band, silver accents, and gorgeous little Swarovski crystals along the face of the watch.

To kind of switch things up a little bit, I decided to work in a little bit of fashion to show you how I would wear this watch!

I'm no fashion blogger, but I hope you enjoy this type of post anyway! :)

Pastel Floral and Polka Dot Nails

Hi everyone!

Today I have this super girly pastel mani to share with all of you! It has been a while since I used Essie's "Blossom Dandy" in a manicure, and I really wanted to use it in a pretty spring design. This polka dot floral design was the result!

Gradient and Floral Nails

Hello everyone!

I have yet another girly design for you today, but this time I tried my hand again at freehand flowers! I find that every time I try them out, I improve on them a lot and I'm pretty happy with how they turned out this time :)

Chevron Floral Nails

 Hello everyone!

Today I have this really girly and fun chevron floral design to share with you all!

I've really been wanting to do a freehand floral pattern, and I recently fell in love with a chevron and floral pattern of a phone case that I found online. I did this nail design inspired by that pattern! I've also seen @nailstorming on Instagram do a lot of these kind of manis lately and I have been obsessed with them! I would say that this design is a combination of the two of those things :)

Orange & Floral Water Decal Nails | Born Pretty Store Review

Hello everyone!

I apologize for my 3 week hiatus, but now I am back and ready to share some fun summer nail art!

I think that Essie "Tart Deco" is one of the most beautiful colors for summer, especially for those of you who love to tan. But even on my super pale, never-tanning Irish skin, I love how bright it looks! 

I decided to pair up this polish with some new floral decals that I received from Born Pretty Store! (You guys probably know by now how much I love their floral water decals... It's such an easy way to get cute nails!) Here's how the mani turned out!

**Don't forget to use my code NSBW10 for 10% off on BornPrettyStore.com!**

OPI Infinite Shine Floral Watermarble Nails

Hello everyone!

As you can probably tell, I have joined the nub club.... Yup, I've had three nail breaks in the past two days. Ugh.

But I am continuing with my series of watermarbling attempts; this time with a flower petal marble using "Running With the In-finite Crowd", "Pretty Pink Perseveres", and "Get Ryd-of-thym Blues" from the new OPI Infinite Shine line. 

*I received 10 polishes from the OPI Infinite Shine line (as well as the base and top coat) from Preen.Me through their #PreenMeVIP program, however, this does not affect my comments or opinions on the polishes*

Aqua Floral Phone Case Inspired Nails

Hello everyone!

I didn't have a lot of time for nails this week, but I really wanted to try out a freehand floral pattern. I really miss doing freehand designs! I used to only do designs like this but I guess my style has changed since then.

Anyway, I got the inspiration for this floral pattern from my sister's phone case. It has such a pretty floral pattern and I really wanted to recreate it on my nails! The design didn't turn out quite how I wanted it to, but I decided to post this anyway.
