I’m Natalia. And this blog is my flow zone. We all have one (or more) but sometimes it’s hard to discover yours. Finding that thing/activity that has that “I don’t know what” that takes over you until you completely lose track of time and want to dedicate to it exclusively, sometimes is the result of research trial and error, a risky decision or – as it happened in my case- it’s just the result of coincidence.
This thing of being a blogger crossed my path when I least expected and, although Colorclap was born very naively, it aroused my curiosity and develops through exploration, leading me to “see” with new eyes my day by day and letting me rediscover things that I once took for obvious.
So here I am, letting myself -or at least trying- go with the flow, giving life eternal through photos and words to those moments that are worth collecting.
Yo soy Natalia. Y este blog es mi actividad flow. Todos tenemos una (0 más) pero no siempre es fácil descubrirla. Encontrar esa cosa/actividad que tiene ese “no sé qué” que logra que perdamos completamente la noción del tiempo y a la que desearíamos dedicarnos con exclusividad, a veces es producto de la búsqueda, otras del ensayo y error, inclusive del tomar riesgos o –como pasó en mi caso- sencillamente producto de la casualidad.
Esto de ser blogger se atravesó en mi camino cuando menos lo esperaba y, aunque Colorclap nació muy ingenuamente, despertó mi curiosidad y se transformó con la exploración, llevándome a “ver” con otros ojos mi día a día y permitiéndome redescubrir cosas antes daba por obvias.
Así que aquí estoy, dejándome llevar –o por lo menos intentándolo- por la vida e inmortalizando en palabras e imágenes esos momentos que valen la pena coleccionar.
The second wedding in my colortrip was absolutely gorgeous. It took place in an amazing and huge garden with a really relaxed and country style, I loved it.
Because it wasn’t a classy formal wedding, I decided to use a colorful cocktail dress that mixed different tones of pink, blue, purple, orange and gray (I know, it sounds crazy but it looked beautiful), however, I wanted to keep my nails more neutral (my dress had enough color) so I chose a simple design and just one color gamma.
The color was dark gray or mercury and the extra touch was a silver glitter, used only to make a delicate pattern of lines in a chevron shape in every single nail. My favorite part of this design is that it’s super easy and can be perfect for almost any kind of wedding or night celebration.
I hope you like it.

1. Use a base coat to protect your natural nail.
2. Then, apply one or two coats of mercury polish.
3. When the base color is dry use a nailart brush or a nailart polish (with a special brush) to make a chevron shape on the top of every single nail with a glitter polish. Remember to keep the lines thin and delicate.
4. Apply a top coat for extra shine and enjoy your mani.
