Sun Flower Nail Art

Finally spring is here on the East Coast! My Senior Thesis Art Exhibition is opening tomorrow and I'm super excited for it. I'm wearing a cute white summery dress so I decided to go with a bright and fun nail design for the occasion.

For the base coat I used a bright yellow orange polish by FACE. For the base coat on my index and middle finger I used "Tickle my France-y" by OPI. For the sunflower petals I used "Electric" by Revlon and for the middle of the flower I used a beautiful brown polish by Illamasqua. Finally for the details I used "Sassy Brassy" and "Glitzy Jam" by Milani. Enjoy!

Neon Roses Nail Art

Hey y'all, just to let everyone know I think I will only be doing weekly posts every thursday until my senior project is over. I'm really excited about this weeks nail art. I sat down having no idea what I was going to do, but I love what I came up with. I just have to say painting my nails just totally brightens up my day. I wasn't feeling so great this morning, but after doing my nails I feel like a new woman! 

For this weeks nails I was inspired by FACE's "Top Ten for J Crew" neon pink nail lacquer. Flowers are starting to bloom around the hudson valley so I also wanted a little bit of spring influence for my nail design. The other base I used is the classic, "Tickle my France-y" by OPI. For the roses I used "I Pink I Can" by Sally Hanson, "ChicaGo Get a Manicure" by OPI, "Peas and Qs" by Nicole by OPI, and "Green Sketch" by Milani's Nail Art Collection. Let me know what you think of this design! I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Simple Spring Nails

Nail Art can be very tedious and take a really long time. If y'all are looking for a quick and simple design I would suggest always using a fab pop out color and just doing a design on either ring finger or thumb (or both) or just doing simple polka dots (easy and cute!).

For a simple spring design I used "Electric" by the top speed Revlon collection. Their polish actually does dry faster than other polishes I've used and I love their colors. On top of this they it is a more affordable brand. For the flowers I used "Black" and "Draw in Pink" by Milani Nail Art. 

I always know spring is right around the corner when I start seeing Daffodils around my college campus. So excited for spring time!

Floral Print Nail Art

Today's post is all about my newest spring nail art! I was inspired by my friend and housemate, Chelsea's John Galt floral print backpack by Brandy Melville. For the base coat I used "Alpine Snow" by OPI. For the flowers I used "Big Apple Red" by OPI and for the petals I used "Emerald" by Revlon and "Uh-Oh Roll Down the Window" by OPI. Let me know what y'all think! I'd love to hear your comments.
