Happy New Year everyone! I was out of town for the holiday and did not end up posting my NYE mani, but rest assured...I used all of my sparkly/glitter polishes together and it was intense! Today I've got another request: a manicure based on Soulja Boy's "Pretty Boy Swag". If you haven't checked out the awesome music video click here and be amazed.
I decided to base the design on his clothing in the video, because I wasn't quite sure how to capture the lyrics (what does a condo look like in manicure form??). I loved his pleated leather jacket, and I knew I needed to incorporate the appropriate amount of bling. I went with black polish with matte stripes mixed with white polish and a chain decoration.
It's a bit hard to see the chain decoration here, but you can see the free-hand matte stripes I put over the black polish.
I reversed the pattern on my right hand.
A sloppy pic, I know, but you can get a feel for the chain a bit better here. I used Wet N' Wild Ebony Hates Chris (black) and Whirlwind White (white), Essie Matte About You (mattifying top coat), China Glaze Icicle (silver) and Champagne Bubbles (gold), and Nicole by OPI Make U Smile (silver glitter). I hope you enjoy!
