GLBTQ Pride mani

Today I have for you the manicure I did for GLBTQ Pride weekend here in St. Louis.


This wasn't as easy as I thought it was going to be.  Indirect sunlight.

For this I put on a french tip of Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear in White on, and then used stripers for the rainbow stripes, the pink triangle was also done with a striper, both the pink underneath and the glitter on top.  I added a coat of China Glaze Love letters and a coat of Seche Vite.  This isn't the best looking mani I have done, getting the stripes just right was tough and I still failed lol.  But people didn't really seem to notice and I got quite a few compliments on it.

In cuter news, my fat old man kitty came outside with me to take pictures and check out what was shakin' on the deck (the answer was, not a whole lot).
RAY!
What?
That's it for now, not feeling so hot, I think I'm going to read my blogs and crash out.

throwing in the towel

I attempted to take pictures of my current mani today, but could not get the camera to actually take a picture that wasn't so blurry it looked like it was taken underwater, I blame the glitter.  Blurry pictures are good for showing the glittery goodness of a polish that usually doesn't show up well in focused pictures, so I am saving some of those to post when I actually get a good picture of the mani. 

So instead I took pictures of three nail art swatches I did for GLBT Pride month, I plan on wearing one of them to Pridefest next weekend, I just can't decide on the accent nail, maybe putting them up will help me decide.

sorry so blurry, you get the idea
 This is going to be the main design on all my nails, at least the rainbow french is, I'm trying to decide on what will go on my ring fingers, the choices are the pink triangle you see above, with or with out the pink glitter on it, the other two options are:

rainbow stripes under black crackle
This is horizontal rainbow stripes with black crackle over it, may or may not add the glitter.

rainbow dots over white
This is just rainbow dots, I would probably use more traditional red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple in the correct order.

So those are the three options for my accent finger, same french as the rest but with a pink triangle on ring finger, rainbow stripes under black crackle, or rainbow dots, decisions, decisions.
