i’ve been quiet recently for two reasons. i haven’t done anything special for one, but that is because i took a mini holiday trip with my sis and some friends to thailand. ohhhh what a trip!
we’ve been here in Khao Lak for 3 days now and it’s amazing. the sun, the sand, the salty water, the fishes who bite us in the water, the seashells, the Andamania Beach Resort (this is where we are staying), the swimming pool, the friendly locals, the negotiations, the fresh fruits and i’m not even starting with the thai food! YUUUUM! it’s definitely been worth the 30hr trip from romania to thailand!
but of course i couldn’t leave without my mini mani-kit. (just a few nail polishes and some treatments for the nails)
before leaving i, right after finishing my bags at around 11 in the evening i went straight to making my nails, and damn was i so uninspired, Â i used my lovely sponge and created this lovely mani, what i now call ‘the sponged orchid’:
right after i did this sponging with colors i thought represented the thai feeling, i saw pictures of orchids with the exact same colors. that is when the name got invented. 🙂
my cuticles were a little bit tired after the 30hr trip with very little hand creme and a lot of hand sanitizer, but they are getting back in shape as we speak.

i actually love the combo between normal nail polish and a glittery nail polish, as is the blue layla hologram effect in this nail art. you can see the glitter there and there and i think it looks interesting, also making you thing at the coral reefs or something else aquatic.
with that much swimming and water all around the nail polish started to chip, so i decided to/ had to do something else to my nails.
i used the lovely purple shade of china glaze- flying dragon, for a simple mani, and afterwards i went on a seashell hunt. i found these lovelies:
of course they were matching my nail polish color.
please don’t hate me right about now. 🙂
and for my toe nails i used my new favorite layla ‘ocean rush’ hologram effect. love, love, love the blue/sandy brown color combo!
i’ve been drafting this post for 5 days now, time in which we moved our accommodation to Koh Lanta, went snorkeling in the similan islands and phi phi islands (where ‘the beach’ was filmed) and discovered and done soooo many things this post is not enough. tomorrow is our last day. but i promise as soon as i get home to a good internet connection i will let you know in pictures exactly how my trip was.
tha tha my dear followers,
