So: fail mani + odd hours = short post
The look I was trying to go for was «festive».
I guess this is just... meh!
I started it all off with two coats of Bellaoggi Plastic Violet.
* pretty pretty *
After cutting I don't know how many pieces of striping tape, I stared applying it to my nails but the darn thing is too slick and does not adhere easily - uff!
I topped each nail with a top coat as I finished applying the tape but here are still parts were you can see it's not perfectly stuck to the nail - meh!
This one just goes to remind me why I don't use tape unless I'm going to paint over it - it's annoying to cut it, I can never get it to stick and stay and it just looks... I don't know... weird and badly done!
So, why am I posting this? 'Cause regardless of everything the contrasting colours are still pretty awesome!
Although this one is NOT going to be my New Year's Eve mani, for sure! ;)
See you tomorrow, lovelies!
Hugs & Kissies,

Great job on the taping!
ReplyDeleteIt's not all that great but you rock just for motivating me! :) Thank you*
DeleteI hate working with tape, too - whether I'm going to paint over it or not... but it's cute nonetheless!
ReplyDeleteSo I just saw that you're one of The Crumpet's blogs to watch in 2014! That's amazing and well deserved. Congrats, sweetie, and a happy new year!
Honey, if it wasn't for you i wouldn't have one of my New Year's best presents ever ;)
Deletethank you for the heads up and for the sweetest comment on The Crumpet about me - you just hit that soft spot of mine *cosy hug* and an awesome 2014, sweetie! <3
I love the colors on these! Striping tape is really blah sometimes... but then again macro photos are pretty unforgiving, I'm sure they looked perfect from a little farther away!
ReplyDeleteAwww, thank you for being so nice! Macro photos can be a bit demotivating, yes, but I'm glad you loved the colours on these most of all :DD
