Stud Love with Julep–Gayle

Today I have another wonderful Julep colour that I wore when I started to want something other than the red and green that I’ve been sporting for the better part of the month! Julep – Gayle is a deep aubergine creme and as with every Julep polish I have worn, was smooth and easy to apply in two coats. The only thing I didn’t like about this polish was that you could see every imperfection and every fingerprint! I kept having to wipe my nails down so that they would continue to look shiny.

I then took the opportunity to use some gold studs that I had picked up from Born Pretty which I have seen a lot of girls using in their manicures. I wish the studs would lie flat on the nail as they kept falling off my nails even after many coats of topcoat. Other than that, I really did enjoy wearing them as I wore this manicure with a purple dress that had brass buttons in it. I was completely matching!

I am having such a hard time choosing what to write now because I keep thinking that 2012 is almost over so whatever I post had better be good!

  1. I love this, Jayne! Aw I wish they would lay more flat too lol. Which size studs are these? They have the smaller ones which may work better for your nails so they lay better on the nail...
    eek I can't believe the year is almost over! Happy New Year!!

    1. Happy New Year to you too!
      They were the 4mm studs. I have the 2mm ones in silver, so I might give those a try to see how they lie on my nail.

    1. It goes so nicely with gold! I was thinking silver at first for the season, but I decided gold was much better :)
