Shannon’s Nail Art

Posted on by

shannons nailsLast week I went to lunch with my beloved friend Laura and her niece Shannon, who is a freshman in high school.  I only see Shannon once in awhile but it is always fun. Well at this lunch, Shannon and I discovered a mutual love of Tim Gunn, and then I noticed her nails and I just loved them. This was the first time she had had them done with designs and I loved her choices. I asked her if the nail artist had used decals, and she said, “oh no, they used these little tiny brushes and just drew the designs on.”  How cool is that? Thanks Shannon for letting me share them.

I have loved the new Nail Art everywhere this year.  It used to be you just saw it here and there and it was kind of edgy, but now it is ubiquitous.

prodesign eyeglasses VioletI saw the scotch tape method on Facebook and I thought to myself, even I can do that!  I can imagine nail polish colors to match my eyeglasses, violet and blue.  Do you think you might try this?

I am going to a big party on March 5th wearing black and pewter.  That might be the first round.  I just love having a new little project.

Feb 23, 2013: I think I have found what I am looking for for the Bay Lights Grand Lighting on March 5th.  To match my studded dress, my studded earrings, my studded leggings, my studded shoes and now studded nails.  The nails would all be the same and just the straight lines to match my dress, more about the dress later. Oh yes, and I will be having a professional do my nails, still not really in my range. Matchy, match, nothing succeeds like excess…Screen Shot 2013-02-14 at 11.34.50 PM
