Jessie over at Nailed It NZ is running a nail art competition just for Kiwis at the moment. Awesome! I'm not particularly skilled at nail art but I thought I'd give it a go. My friend PJ did paua (abalone shell native to NZ) nails a while back which I thought were absolutely amazeballs, so I decided to try my hand at some paua nails too. I was so happy with the results, I took way too many photos!

What I like most is that it looks quite different indoors and out. In the sunlight the holo really takes over, but in the shade, the flakies come out to play. I'd love to hear what you think!
If you'd like to enter, please head on over to Jessie's blog. The prize is some gorgeous China Glaze polish! :)
