Hi guys!
I have some kind of strange nails today, inspired by this post by Elle & ish. Yep, that's a banana. And an apple too!
The gray base is Deborah Lippmann Pretty Vacant, which is actually a textured polish -- unfortunately I had to put top coat over these, so I lost most of the texture.
And to get an idea of where this is coming from, here's 1966 Andy Warhol image:

Now it's time for some photo spam!

| Of course I had to take a photo with a real apple ... |

| This looks kind of strange because the gray polish I used was textured. |
I feel like the apple looks kind of odd, but I do like the banana :)
Thanks for reading & be sure to let me know what you think!

ReplyDeleteThanks :)
DeleteI love your nails!
ReplyDeleteThey look soo creative! I think they look great :)
Thanks so much!
DeleteYou did a beautiful job, looking at the artist picture and then the banana it does look like it! :) I think I really like it with the texture. It's different for sure but in every good way :) xx
ReplyDeleteThanks! A substantial amount of credit has to go to elle&ish though, haha :) That's what I was aiming for, yay!
DeleteHaha aww, great concept and I love the idea. I'm not sure about the gray polish though - but this is just a personal preference :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yeah, I wanted to use a nice cream sorta polish for the base (like My Vampire is Buff) but I realized I actually didn't have any off-white creamy polishes (that needs to be rectified, haha)!
DeleteI love the banana, super cute!
ReplyDeletethis is awesome! what a great nail idea!
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteThat banana looks really good! Loving the new layout and the header as well. It's simple and it doesn't distract you from the cool nail art you've got going on.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
Deletelove your banana :D
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteTotally loving how you made the inspiration your own! And I do love the colour scheme of your mani. In my opinion, the grey background helped made this whole nail art look gorgeous and arty! What else can I say? That's artwork on your nails! ♥
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!
DeleteI had no idea DL had made a textured polish. Your design is super cute!
ReplyDeleteYep, Pretty Vacant and two other textureds were in the fall 2013 Punk Rock Collection (yep, I'm a DL maniac haha). Thanks!
