Ugly Manicure

Okay, I think this is ugly. Mainly because of the colors. What I envisioned in my head as to what my nails would look like was a HUGE disappointment. I didn't even bother to edit the pictures too much because I think it's so ugly. Haha. I formulated this idea in my head because of my beloved Florida State Seminoles doing well in the ACC Basketball Tournament. Good thing my team looked better than my nails!

Here are some pictures, I shall say no more...

Oh, yes, I need to say more. This is pic heavy, so please read more after the jump! And thanks Google support for having the answer to how one makes a jump link in Blogger! <3

Day 9: Rainbow

Hello again! For the rainbow theme, I decided to go with gradient again (I was going to cheat and count this for day 9 and 10, but then I got butter LONDON's No More Waity, Katie, so I decided to gradient that instead).

Rainbow time!

This picture was taken in flash (sorry for blinding you with my whiteness!). I also tried to crop it more, but my software wouldn't let me! Grrrr. It is a little hard to see the red and orange differentiation, but I tried... 

You can see the red/orange difference much better here. But, the blue/purple kind of blend. 


This is probably the best picture of them all! 


Close up of my thumb! :)

There we have it: ROY. G. BIV. This manicure did remind me of school in that aspect... Learning about the colors of the rainbow using the name ROY G. BIV. Unfortunately, Indigo did not join us. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, and Violet sure did! :)

Day 6: Purple

All I have to say about my purple is, well, AMAZING!

I was able to get a few shots in the sun, but none of these pictures really capture what this mani looked like in real life.

Additionally, there are some pictures marked as "KTP". These are my pictures; I changed the watermark for the specific pictures because I plan to post them on MUA. MUA has a strict "do not talk about your blog" policy.

Enjoy!




 This picture directly above is the closest (on my monitor) to what this mani looked like in person.

Day 5: Blue

Day 5 has finally arrived for the blog! I didn't get many pictures of this, but, as I said earlier, abysmal weather has taken its toll this winter (it's more like spring, to be honest). However, at the time of this manicure, our area was being hit with its first legitimate "cold snap". So, the blue manicure was well-timed. Matched my blue lips, haha. Brrrr...

Looking at this manicure still makes me cold, actually.

There we have it! I'm currently wearing purple right now, but, it's on its last legs. I'm going through pictures right now. My purple post should be up later today, hopefully! It's a BEAUTY! I LOVE the combination I did!
