31DC2015 Day 25: Inspired by fashion

Hi lovelies,

Happy friday!  It’s only day 2 of our super long weekend and the weather is beautiful too.  I hope you had a great week and plans for a great weekend!

You can follow everyone taking part by using the #31DC2015.  I am going to be keeping my posts short and sweet throughout the challenge so that it means more time to get cracking with the prompts 😉   Here are the prompts for this year.

There is no shortage of anything fashion to use as inspiration but when I asked Jamcj to help me find something she struck gold.  It’s no secret that I love zumba and am currently quite obsessed with it so she chose……..zumba fashion! This was the inspiration…

And this is what I did.

On my pinky I started with 2 coats of Tip Top – We have an agreen-mint and when it was completely dry I taped off half of my nail and then used China Glaze – Recycle.  I immediately pulled the tape off and then used a thing brush to draw the lines down the rest of the nail also using China Glaze – Recycle.  I did this with a brush and not tape because I wanted it to look more like the fringe from the shirts in than perfectly straight lines.  I did the same on my index but using Sinful Colors – Snow me white and then Tip Top – We have an agreen-mint.  You can’t see paint splatter and not want to do splatter on your nails so on my index I did a splatter using 2 coats of Sinful Colors – Snow me white.  When that was completely dry I splattered using Tip Top – Sitting pretty.  I then used the same pink and a thin brush to make the border around the splatter.  On my middle nail I tried to go with the zumba logo.  I did a sponged gradient using Tip Top – We have an agreen-mint and Tip Top – Sitting pretty.  Once that was dry I went in with a black striper to write the word ‘zumba’.  I didn’t write it too well.  The first time was much better but it was upside down so I had to redo it :/ I topcoated and that was that.

What do you think?  I wish my camera didn’t make this particular pink look so meh.  it’s such a beautiful bright pink.
