Patterned Wednesdays: Vintage Dots & Stripes

Hello lovelies!

We're basically halfway through the week, woo! Today is going to be such a long day, I'm thinking I'm probably going to end up in the studio until some extreme hour again tonight. Blah.

Anyways, onto the nails!

I'm so happy with how these nails came out! I think they're so pretty!

Here's what I used:

I seriously am in love with these nails. They are so unlike anything that I would normally paint or even wear but something about them just makes me super happy? Is that weird? Haha. These are based off of this lovely pattern by Louise Bourgeois.

These nails started with 3 coats of My Vampire Is Buff followed by a saran wrap dab of Echo Park (which you can't even see...). When that dried I taped off the lower portion of my nails and painted with Love, Angeline's Tomorrow Night's Sky. I also used that to make dots on the top half. I then dotted inside the dots and painted the little lines with My Vampire Is Buff!

I'm super happy with how my dots came out in this design! Normally my dotting is all wonky but here it's definitely better! The color combination of these is so simple but striking too, I think that's what I love the most about it!

Here's a song for today:
Tonight Alive - Complexes

Thanks for reading guys!
