REDtro

First off, I want to thank everyone for all of your amazing comments and emails. I was kind of worried posting that letter, because I wasn't sure how it would be received. However, your replies just confirmed what intelligent, caring, compassionate, awesome people you all are!

Anyway, that said, here's the nails! :)

I love retro fabrics, prints, colors, etc. Today, when I was looking at the local antique store after lunch, I came across some really awesome vintage fabrics, and today's nail design was inspired by one of them! I didn't buy it, but I did end up buying a cute leather 70s handbag for $15. WOO!

I used American Apparel Cotton as a base, with Essie Alligator Purse and American Apparel Hassid for the design. Topped it all off with 2 coats of Seche Vite top coat.

OPI Spree #1 closed, OPI Spree #2 opening soon!

Hello ladies!

1-2 bottles of O.P.I goes at $12 each but if you're ordering 3 bottles and above, you get to enjoy an exclusive rate of only $10 per polish !!! The prices stated are only for OPI polishes with the black caps. Designer series goes at 20 per bottle. Do also note that there are a few discontinued series already, such as Burlesque & Shrek. When you send in your orders, indicate a few alternatives for me. Just in case the polish you want is discontinued already, I'll replace it with your alternative.

Edgy Half Moon Mani

I've seen tons of half moon manis out there, and I'm sure you have too. Well, I like to do things a tad different, if you haven't noticed. This is my edgier version of it. For this I used Wet n' Wild Hannah Pinktana, and Sinful Black on Black. Trsut me, Hannah Pinktana, is really fairly holo, but I didn't have any sun when I did this mani :(

Here is 2 coats of Hannah Pinktana over black.

This is how I cut my tape to do this design

You then tape it on your nail, like so

Once you polish on your 2nd color, black in this case, remove the tape ASAP, and you will have this

Repeat this for all your nails, and once you're done, add your top coat, mine is SV, Seche Vite
