Pinspired: Sundress

It's Pinterest time again. My brain is in a bit of a fog lately, so I've been needing a jump-start for my creative engine. Thank goodness for Pinterest, because I can browse without having a specific thing in mind...and I always find something interesting.



Keep reading to see the whole thing.



My Inspiration:

My Version:



Colors Used:
Octopus Party Peach Buzz
China Glaze Liquid Leather




I did this by cutting cosmetic wedges into rectangular-ish shapes. If you try this at home, don't freak out when they look curled...if you leave them alone for a few minutes, they will return to their normal shape. I dabbed the square shapes into a puddle of black polish, and simply pressed it to my nail. I wish that I had been able to do smaller squares, as the length of my nails kept me from doing the proper gradient effect that the dress is rocking.

Then I added NYC Matte Top Coat...and it became almost perfect. I only wish I had thinned the black with clear polish, and maybe used smaller squares.
