The most recently released plate I have from Moyou London, as of writing this, is Deco 05. Part of Moyou's new Deco collection, which is a collection of plates with intricate and sophisticated designs. The description of these plates on Moyou London's website says that these plate are perfect for; 'date nights or weddings and engagement parties'. I totally agree that.

While the Deco collection isn't my usual style of designs. I prefer mostly quirky, minimal designs (like the Hipster and Scandi collections). But this particular plate from the collection was one that grabbed my attention, mostly because of the different, and interesting size and shaped designs. The plate, listed as being 1 large designs, has 21 varied designs. 8 larger, horizontal designs. 7 medium sized, right-angle designs. And 6 smaller designs. The plate is based around decorative, swirly designs. I love the variation of ways to use all of these designs.

Pros

Every single design works perfectly for a accent nail, in my opinion. 

All of the larger designs have a straight edge, making them perfect to do a half-nail design. Or place the design twice to create a mirrored effect.

I think the right angle designs are the best ones. I love using them at the top of my nails, to create a half-moon design. The designs work for this both ways up, point or curve.

Perfect to use on special occasions or formal events.

Cons

I'm not the biggest fan of the smaller designs. I don't find much use for them.

Non of the designs are full-nail (unless you have super short nails).

The intricacy of the designs may be hard for beginners. 

Not a lot of designs that are good for reverse stamping. 

Designs Using This Plate...

Overall Thoughts

Although this plate is not usually my cup of tea, but I do find myself using this plate occasionally. When I want an intricate accent nail, or a sophisticated mani. I do like the look of one or two of the other plates in this collection, and every plate from this collection is very different from the others. All the plates have multiple sizes and amount of designs. 

You can buy this plate here.

I own a lot of nail polishes, and most brands I have multiple shades from, but there are a few brands of nail polish that I only own one shade of... my 'lonely polishes' This post has swatches of the 12 polishes that are lonely in my polish collection. Pretty much all of these brands I wish I had loads of polishes from and this list of polishes include some of my all time favourite polishes.

My Way Or The High Way - China Glaze

It is almost ridiculous that I only own one China Glaze polish! I've had this polish for a few years, it was a birthday present from my wonderful cousin Hannah (Hannah Heartss). I adore any polish that is turquoise/teal, and this is a beautiful medium turquoise shade with a lovely, thin-ish formula. (2 coats)

Natalie - 'Ard As Nails

This polish has been feature in several of my posts over the past couple of years, because I love it. It's a lovely colour-shifting metallic polish. I am definitely planning on buying more 'Ard As Nails polishes in the future. (2 coats over Black Is Back by Essence)

Lagoon - Technic

I won this polish is a giveaway a few months ago on Instagram by Emily, nailmeright. It's a stunning bright metallic/shimmer blue. And when I first applied it, was really surprised that I didn't own anything else similar to this in my collection, which is weird considering how many blue shades I own. (2 coats)

Sword Of Destiny - Masura

I got this polish from the same nailmeright giveaway. I don't know how this is possible, but I had never seen, nor heard of Masura polishes before! I am obsessed with this polish. I love gold, and I love glitter. This polish looks beautiful on it's own, over gold polish and over other colours. I hope to try more Masura shades in the future. (2 coats + 1 coat over Angelfish by Barry M)

Studio 54 - Models Own

Yet again, another from the same giveaway. This is a bright, hot pink metallic chrome polish. Looks beautiful and is a perfect bright shade for summer. (2 coats)

Congenial - Gloss 'N Sparkle

The final on this list from the nailmeright giveaway, is from a brand that I know nothing about. When I got this polish I searched online for more info about Gloss 'N Sparkle, but I couldn't find a website or social media pages. I'm guessing this brand is no longer in business. But this polish is absolutely lovely. A mint green polish packed with different size copper/bronze hex glitter. I wish I could find more polishes from this brand. (2 coats)

Feather - Yes Love

This was a gift from my brother when he went on holiday to Spain. I can't find pretty much anything about this brand online. It's a clear based glitter polish full of blue and black bar glitters. (2 coats over Cotton by Barry M)

Moo's Heart - Moo Moo Signatures

This polish is definitely in my top 10 polishes of all time. I love literally everything about it. The shade, the packaging, the name. I wrote about this polish is my 'What I Got For Christmas' post. This was a present from my husband, our dog's name is Moo, so it's I nearly melted when he brought my a polish called 'Moo's Heart'. This is a crelly vibrant red polish with a pink and gold shimmer. I wear this polish a lot. I 100% plan on buying more Moo Moo Signature polishes soon. (2 coats)

Merino - Angelica

I use to own another Angelica polish, but I have no idea where that disappeared too, I move house a lot, so I must have lost it during one of my moves over the last few years. This is a 'cashmere matte finish', which is a soft satin finish. The black polish with a blue and silver shimmer. (2 coats)

Star Gazer - PS 

I 'stole' this from my Mum a few months ago (I say stole, but she knew I was taking it). I wanted to try a PS polish and when I saw this in my Mum's collection, I knew I needed it. It's a really pretty holographic/iridescent blue glitter topper polish (wow, try saying that fast). (2 coats over New Moon by Moyou London)

Moonlit - Born Pretty

This is a stamping polish and the first polish that I have gotten by Born Pretty. I recently reviewed this polish in a post, which you can read here. (2 coats)

New Moon - Moyou London

The last polish on this list is another stamping polish, this one my Moyou London, which is quickly becoming one of my all time favourite brands. This is a very dark grey polish (almost black, although not the 'blackest' shade the have). I use this polish for stamping a lot, but also enjoy wearing sometimes just as a regular polish. The is one polish that I know won't be lonely in my collection for very long, as soon as I am in a better finical situation I am without a doubt adding more Moyou polishes to my collection. This polish was included in my Moyou London review video, which you can watch here. (2 coats)
