New Skirt Nails

OPI Skull & Glossbones, OPI Bronzed To Perfection, BYS Black Nail Art Striper

A while ago I came across this manicure by the amazing Brittney from Precious Polish. She is just the greatest at lines and patterns! I originally wanted to do it on all my nails, but for some reason my brain just couldn't quite get the way the zig zaggy stripes were meant to go, so I limited that pattern to two nails on each hand and did some simpler liney patterns on the other nails. 

This mani also matched my new skirt that I wore to work today. It was almost the same colour as Bronzed To Perfection, and I've never actually worn BTP so I figured it was a good time to try it out! 

I think that my favourite design from this mani was the one on my middle finger in the top photo and my thumb in the bottom. It's another Brittney inspired pattern. (That girl! Line genius she is!) My next mani is going to be line madness! 

You may also have noticed that Little Nails is blue/green now! I was getting a bit sick of the purple layout, but now I think I might miss it! Perhaps I'll change it back.

  2. I love the colour combo and the design. Did you have to use tape to do this? Cause I can't imagine the amount of work you would have to do if so!

    1. It was a nail art stripey thing, not tape, thank goodness! Gosh, imagine doing it with tape!
