Hi loves!!
I know, I know.. I'm late with this post.. A WHOLE day late :(. So sorry about that. I had the pics ready to go but completely forgot to do the post the night before and then I woke up yesterday feeling awful and ended up in the hospital for the Second time this year. Needless to say.. I was not about to sit down and blog yesterday... As if by some miracle I am actually at work today but I don't feel very functional so please pardon the "shortness" of this post. The task for yersterday was White on Color.
For this funky look I started wit Two effortless coats of the lovely and totally amazing,
Tallulah by Zoya. Still featuring Blues throughout April for Autism Awareness month.
Tallulah is what I would consider to be my all time favorite shade of Blue. For the White accents I used a dotting tool. For this you have to make sure your base color is 100% dry because it requires dragging the dotting tool in quick short movements across your nail. Topped it all off with some Northern Lights.
I'm not really sure what I was going for with this look but I kinda like it...

ReplyDeleteI'm a guy who paints his toes and I LOVE This Look, very cool. I've never tried anything but one color on my toes and french tips, but I may try this one day. Or may try it on my wife. If you don't mind, I'd like to post a pic of this on my blog called: 'It's Ok for Men to Have Painted Nails in Public' . I would give a link back to your blog and credit you with it. Might be a week or two until I get it on my blog, so let me know if it's ok, Thanks, Guy
