Today I present the sad story of a cute manicure in less than flattering lighting...
It was an autumn day, quite sunny in general but oh so short. It was around sunset that I realized the daylight was being lost. As much as I tried, time seemed against me and as it so happened, artificial light was all that remained. The horror! The pain!
I never liked artificial light and I never liked using the flash. That's why I didn't. But as much as I tried to make it work, it didn't live up to its cute potential. I can assure you they're so cuddly in person!
So here we go, baby blue with an accent polka dot ring finger in... *dum dum duuuum* Lightbulb Light!
I can hear you covering your mouth. Yes...I said lightbulb!
The true color is, as usual, somewhere in the middle.
I'm thinking about redoing this post in daylight, maybe just for the sake of comparison and a very long discussion about how I like my light. ( Actually that's a short discussion: from the sun )
But there are some other lovely ladies who went all blue today, and here they are:
Gosia from Life in Color!
Mihaela from Lacquerbuzz

This looks so precious!!! Even under a lightbulb LOL. All my swatches are done under a lightbulb!! Only under the 'natural light' one ;)
ReplyDeleteMe no likey lightbulb at all, and it didn't work well with the flash so I was left with this
DeleteLooks very Cath Kidstony, beautiful! Would love it if you could take a look at my blog - http://lucy-abigail.blogspot.co.uk/
