Purple Stripes

 Hey Dolls!

 

This stripey mani is what I wore on our Thanksgiving weekend.  I got my inspiration from @cassondrafaye and @lafemmelulu on Instagram for this mani.  There are so many talented nail artists on Instagram.

 

 

My base coat is OPI My Very First Knockwurst.  I taped off 1/3 of each nail and did a coat of Zoya Aurora and (I'm not totally positive about this since it was so long ago now, but I'm pretty sure it's) Barry M Prickly Pear.

 

 

What do you all think of tape mani's?  Do you love them as much as I do?

 



Twinsie Tuesday Splatter Mani

Hiya Dolls

 

For TT today we all tried our hand at a Splatter Mani.  I played it safe and just used black and white for my splatter effect.

 

My base coat is Barry M Gelly in Prickly Pear which is the most gorgeous lavender.  I splattered Wet & Wild Black first using the straw method and then OPI My Boyfriend Scales Walls next.  Two generous coats of my fave top coat NYC Grand Central Station made it nice and smooth.  I really love how this turned out.
