Hump Day Stripes

Hey all! Hope your week is FLYING by. Mine is going at a steady rate but it will be Friday soon enough :)

So I decided to stick with my blue theme. Or just keep painting my nails blue until I feel that I need a different color. I posted a pic last post of a nail pic I found on my camera and I liked the idea of vertical stripes. So what I did was paint on my base coat, then put on 3 coats of ORLY Blue Collar. It didn't need 3 but I usually stick with that just in case. Then once that dried pretty much, I started painting stripes on the nails, one down the middle and then two on each side. I have a pretty steady hand so I free handed them all using the Kiss striping brush.

I really like the color combo with the bright blue and the black. I was actually debating adding the white dots like the other picture but I felt it would seem like I was trying to make a snow storm on my nails. I have enough of that weather outside than need a daily reminder on my nails. No thanks!

Overall I really like the look. I will probably keep it on for at least 2 days :)
