Manicure Mondays – Petal Pusher and Gold Sequins

With summer right around the corner, I couldn’t wait to lighten things up a bit. As you all know, I can’t get away with a simple manicure. I have too much fun layering and playing with color. I love the gold sequin glitter over the super light pink creme nail polish in this manicure. I needed a pink that was light enough to contrast well against the gold glitter.

Deborah Lippmann gave me the polish of my choice and I fell in love with Boom Boom Pow, their gold sequin glitter! Deborah Lippmann is a celebrity manicurist and designs colors specifically for runway shows and photo shoots. This color in particular was designed for an editorial shoot with Kate Moss. Kate was photographed nude, but covered with gold jewelry and Deborah wanted to capture this amazing effect in a nail polish, so she designed the gorgeous Boom Boom Pow. It looks so beautiful over the super light pink creme, Sally Hansen Insta-Dri in Petal Pusher, shown below. If the Deborah Lippmann is a little out of your price range, Sephora by OPI Only Gold For Me top coat is a perfect dupe (octagonal gold sequins and all).

So what do you all think of this manicure? Is this something you would wear?
