Am I the only one that thinks the short week after a long weekend is also the longest week? Goodness it feels like the days are dragging. How is it only Thursday? I guess it is almost weekend and i really do love those so much 😛
Today is day 6 of the M.T.V Challenge and I was both excited and dreading this topic. I was excited because I have kept the polish I am using one side *just* for today and it is so gorgeous! I was dreading it however because I still stink at free hand nail art. I know I should practice it more but when it doesn’t come out so pretty I just want to give up. Onwards and upwards though. Today is tribal print and tribal print it will be. But first, the polish!
China Glaze – That’s Shore Bright.
This is two coats of this gorgeous polish. This is a bright purple creme that I think fits right into the ‘violet’ category. Technically, it probably isn’t a neon but it is quite bright and it has the trademark neon finish. Application was a breeze. It’s a little thin on the first coat but adding a second coat leaves with you a perfect application. It’s so gorgeous!
And here is my tribal print. I used my black striper from L.A Colors to draw on my tribal print. I didn’t have too much of a plan when I started but I did have a general idea. I then used the Julia glitter from the Essence Twins Reloaded set for the rest of my fingers. I think the purple glitter looks amazing over That’s Shore Bright. (You can find the original post about Julia here)
What do you think of my violet and the tribal print? How would you have interpreted todays topic?
Go and have a look at what the other ladies got up today:
I just want to take a moment to say thank you to each and every person who visits, comments and shares. It really means so much to me to hear your thoughts and opinions and your comments mean the world to me. So thank you!
Thanks for reading!

This purple complements you SO well! Your skin looks tanner!
And I’m not saying the glitter is ugly but I’m enjoying your freehand tribal there and like that a lot more. You didn’t do a kaki job AT ALL! Looks good
Michelle Roberts
Awww V! Thank you so much. Really means a lot coming from you! <3
Lesley
I love the color! That collection has notoriously iffy formulas and here you are making them look beautiful! 😉
I LOVE it with the glitter. Nothing against your tribal…I just see the glitter with that color and fall into a glitter trance. 😉
Michelle Roberts
Aww thank you! No no, I also prefer the glitter. My tribal wasn’t great 😛 I think the glitter worked SO well with this colour.
Thea
Nah, no need to worry M because you killed this freehand! Love it! I am not a huge fan of tribal but this looks awesome together. And Julia was made for That’s Shore Bright. Such a gorgeous freaking purple *adds both to list*
Michelle Roberts
Thanks so much T. You are too kind. I still don’t think my freehand rocks but I guess on a tribal is the best place to practice for now 😛 I so agree about Julia. It looks gorgeous!
