Nail of the Day

I'm a HUGE fan of nail art.

I love both the crazy Japanese style nail art and even the other popular styles like minx, foils, french tips, etc.
Lately I've been on a kick where I've been looking at nail blogs for inspiration. There are just so many creative people out there! It blows my mind!

So here's just a little something small I did last night to my nails that I'm loving right now!


So basically its just pastel purple polish as my base. My ring finger has a konad design on it and a rhinestone to jazz it up a little. Originally..that was it. But then earlier today I felt like going a step further so I freehanded the french tips with some silver polish on the remaining nails that were bare.
Ta-da! So simple!


Here are the polishes I used! I have quite a few of the art deco polishes. They come in a LOT of colors (even glitters like silver&gold) and are cheap. I buy them at my local Dollar Tree for $1 each. I really hate that all nail design polishes have REALLY long brushes. I feel like it doesn't help me control the polish as well. There has to be a reason why they do this though right?
The pastel purple color is from Essence which are usually $1 at Ulta. I love their mini size and they come in really great shades! Most $1 polishes have glitter in them and that really annoys me..but the Essence ones don't. Thumbs up!

Are you digging my nails?

Cheers!
