Red Mustang

Hey guys,

So wow last night was awesome. The Christmas party was a total success. I'm so glad it's over though. It was a crazy night full of laughs, dancing & crazy photobooth pictures. I've said it before and I'll say it again my coworkers are the best.

Anyways this was one of those manicures that didn't end up where I thought it would. I'm trying to get a lot better at letting my manicures do what they want sometimes instead of what I had originally had in mind. As I got going this started to remind me of an old red mustang with white racing stripes and I thought hey thats kind of neat. So I left it. and Loved it.

For this I used

OPI - Red Lights Ahead...Where?
Orly Instant Artist - Crisp White

Blue Drip Stripes

Hey guys,

This was a technique that I had seen done a while ago and wanted to give a go. I don't think it turned out the best BUT I really liked the end effect. I'd actually forgotten about this technique I think it may be time to revisit this and apply the lessons I learned last time... Hopefully less drops and more stripes.

For this I used

A England - Lancelot
OPI - Dating A Royal
Zoya - Breezi
Orly - Frisky

Fuzzy Sweater Stripes

Hey guys,

So I know today there is a No H8 campaign going on in the blogosphere. I completely missed the boat on it though and while totally supporting it didn't have any purple manicures in my drafts folder. And my manicure for tomorrow is blue. So maybe you guys will forgive me because this manicure has purple in it? That being said it shouldn't matter anyways because it's the point not the colour that matters.

So enough is enough. Time to end bullying.

This is my Fuzzy Sweater Striped manicure.
I used a dotter to make these stripes and as a result it reminds me a but of a fuzzy sweater.
I used
A England - Dragon
A England  - Tristam
A England - Lady of the Lake
