Hi Goddesses
I am really pleased with today's mani. Not only does it look good, it really DOES look like its inspiration. Look!
These are my summer slippers. Beth and I have matching pairs, and we both like them verrrrry much. I have meant to do them on my nails for quite a while, so today's prompt was a really good excuse!
For the cream we have OPI My Vampire is Buff, and the lilac is OPI You're A Budapest. I resisted buying Budapest for the LONGEST time (in a rare rational moment, I thought "well I have so many lilacs already"), but I am glad I finally scooped it up, as it has a much colder, bluer tone than a lot of my lilacs. The grey is China Glaze Stone Cold, and I keep forgetting the pretty shimmer in this.
To get the slipper edging, I painted my nail in Budapest, and then mixed Budapest and MVIB to create a softer, fluffier colour. I then added this with a small brush, deliberately keeping my strokes messy to create some texture.
Next week we have Chinese, Abstract and Animals as the themes and I haven't started a single one yet. Argh!
