Sparkling Jelly Sandwich

I am really excited to share this mani with you guys today!  I have seen lots of people doing "jelly sandwich" manis a lot lately.  It's becoming quite trendy and popular.  I decided to give it another go because the last time I tried one I wasn't very happy with the results. This time I am thrilled with the result!

LOTS of pics because I loved the mani so much! :)






I really did not expect to love this as much as I do!  What you are looking at is two Essie Marshmallow with Girly Bits Hippity Hop in between them.  Then I topped the whole thing off with a layer of Out the Door Northern Lights top coat.

I loved the way this particular glitter worked in the mani because I felt it wasn't too overpowering or chunky looking.  It have a more speckled, delicate look.  It wore like iron for almost a week, which is a good thing because I didn't want to take it off!

What do you think of the Jelly sandwich trend?  What about sheer jelly polishes in general?

    Love jelly polishes - I've been on the lookout for more of them. Anybody know of any black jellies?

    Leah ann from LLarowe just tweeted your blog, and I'm really glad she did. I now have a great new blog to follow. This mani is so great. I also just wore Hippity Hop for the first time ever and its so stunning. I wish I thought to do a jelly sandwich... add it to the list of things to try :)

    Definitely loving the jelly sandwich trend, and love jelly polishes in general. I usually keep my nails very short, so VNL isn't an issue with jellies for me. I love their squishiness!

    This looks lovely, I love jelly sandwiches. I love the blue's in yours, it's different then the typical jelly sandwiches everyone does.
