FISHTAIL MANICURE!
I saw this Fishtail manicure in a tutorial by MissJENfabulous on Youtube and I tried it. I have to say, it is really easy to do and it didn't really chip at all for the five days that I wore it. A few of my friends actually thought I had nail wraps on!
The three colors that I used were:
Sephora by OPI Chestnuts About You
Sephora by OPI Alley Cat
Sinful Colors Midnight Blue (only $0.99!)
if anyone would like to try this yourself, here is the link to the tutorial:

Polka Dots!
Polka Dots!!!
I love polka dots so I really wanted to try making a design like this and since I recently got a brush set with a dotting tool for only $3 on Amazon (that's right, $3!!!) I figured I would try.
Base color: Essie in Spaghetti Strap
Dots Colors: China Glaze Strawberry Fields, China Glaze Seduce Me, Milani Gold Glitz, OPI Paint My Moji-Toes Red, Milani Bet on Red
I really love how bright and summery this design is and I am happy with the way it came out.
Glittery Gradient
Base color: Sephora by OPI in Chestnuts About You
Top color: Sally Hansen Gem Crush in Be-Jeweled
I used two coats of the base color. Using the top color, I put on one coat starting about 2/3 of the way down the nail out to the tips. To create the gradient look, I used the same top color and put a second thicker coat on the tips.
Top coat: China Glaze Fast Forward Top Coat
