Hi!
It's been in the mid-90s all week where I live! I thought that called for some summer nail art...
I've been seeing the tape cross pattern on my middle finger everywhere on Instagram in the last couple of months, and I finally got around to recreating it!
The tape placement was trickier than I expected. Also, by the time I had filled in the non-taped spaces with polish, other parts of the polish had dried and so the tape made the polish all wonky when I pulled it up. It gives it a kind of distressed, old-gold sort of look -- I can live with it, I guess.
That's Deborah Lippmann She Drives Me Crazy. It's gorgeoussss |
For some reason this reminds me of something by Lilly Pulitzer. It's not floral and pastel like their signature pieces, but it just kind of feels Lilly-ish. Hmm.
Coral Peony is gorgeous too :O |
In other news, I redesigned the blog for like the 500th time! I added fancy drop down menus and sticky navigation and a new related posts widget and some other not-as-fun stuff, I hope you guys like it!!
Thanks for reading!

DeleteThis is very creative and looks so pretty. I love the base colour! Oh and I like the new blog design, I spotted it as soon as I came over here :) x
ReplyDeleteThanks!! I use that polish soo much :)
DeleteHAHA when I read your first sentence I thought you meant it was some sort of "let's celebrate the time period the 90's" thing at your house or whatever, until I realized you probably just meant "the weather is hot hot hot here!" Cute nail art (Coral Peony does indeed look gorgeous!) and I love the new lay-out! I immediately noticed some things had changed - I think the new font of your header looks really cute!
ReplyDeleteAhaha, that's not exactly what I meant -- but I'd rather be celebrating the 1990s than sweating and lying around! Thank you so much :)
DeleteThese are really neat! I love the colors you used (:
