Hi Goddesses
Oh boy. Oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy oh boy. Yup, today's nail "art" is sooooooooo bad, that I've used a different lead photo! Crap, here we go.
Ok, are you calm now. Have you stopped laughing / picked yourself up off the floor / wiped those tears away? This is a tragedy of epic proportions, and it shows how little I cared about this challenge that I didn't redo it.
To be fair, it was all going sooooo well, and my brushwork was the finest it had been. Straw? Check. Sticks? Check. Epic brickwork? Check. Wolf blowing a big huff and puff. Fuck me, yes!!!!
And then came the pigs. Those flipping pigs. I ... pppfffff .... I .... it's the ears. The ears went wrong. And I thought the outlining would help. And it didn't. And I didn't know how to do their eyes and ..... I will be eating bacon in revenge ALL WEEK ......
Hi Goddesses
We are finally at the end of my epic stretch of OPI Brazil manis. For now lol. I love these colours so much - and how they combine - that I am sure I will be back to these before the summer ends, but for now, here's your last double doozy.
This starts as a gradient featuring I Just Can't Cope-acabana and Kiss Me I'm Brazilian.
I loved how these 2 looked together, and they reminded me of Pink Lemonade. Someone else at work said they reminded her of the Fruit Salad chewy sweets, so that night .... there was only one thing to be done lol - make a fruit salad!
And this is how it looks with Winstonia W118.
Whilst I still like it, I don't love how the white has bled away some fo the vibrancy of the gradient - it's just not as shiny and juicy as it was in the beginning lol.
Still, at least everyone at work agreed it definitely was now a fruit salad!
Hi Goddesses
I hope you all had a good long, relaxing weekend. I had a MILLION nail ideas in my head ... until my sinuses interrupted and slammed me into bed for most of the weekend. Still, I did rearrange my Pinterest boards ....
I've been sat on this mani for a little while now, and it's been hard BECAUSE I LOVE IT SO MUCH, but I wanted to show it after you saw the skittle it was created on top of - and you saw that in Saturday's SIMPLES post - here.
The Waterfall remains incredibly easy to do, and it has fast become one of my fall back nail designs. If I'm stumped, I find this a really easy (and quick) one to rock n roll with.
This features all the brights from the OPI Brazil Collection, and a little bit of Don't Bossa Nova Me Around, too. So we have -
thumb - I Just Can't Cope-acabana
index - Where Did Suzi's Man-go?
middle - Kiss Me I'm Brazilian
ring - Toucan Do It If You Try
pinkie - Live.Love.Carnaval.
