polka dot nails.

Day eleven of the 31 Day Challenge, polka dot nails!
Now, to me, polka dots scream matte. I love love love matte polka dots. However, I lack matte polish, heh. SO, we are settling for the next best thing! :)
I typically don't wear polka dots very often because I go too quickly and just don't get them spaced out nicely. My own fault, and although I know how to solve this problem, it's possible that I never will. :)



Joe "Slate" 3 coats
Dots: Sally Hansen Xtreme wear "Black Out" 1 coat

As you can see, it's got a blueish/purpleish tint in natural light but is very grey in artificial light.
In natural light, I wouldn't exactly call it slate.

strobe lights & disco balls

Ahhh! No words can describe the immense amount of love I have for this beautiful, holographic, sparkly, glittery beauty. I probably wouldn't wear it alone, but I absolutely needed to show off this beauty. The second picture is intentionally blurry to show off the holographic beauty of this lovely new friend of mine. :)


Sally Hansen Xtreme Nails "Strobe Light" 4 coats.

THEN, because this color was irresitable, I decorated it a little bit. However, when I was removing this.. I realized I took no pictures, SO i quickly redid it on one hand just to show off. The dots were much more even the first time, but you get the idea.

Dots: Revlon Scented "Bubble Gum" 2 coat
Dots are done with a bobby pin, because I lack a dotting tool.
