Happy birthday to me!! 2013

Ok my birthday was on the 16th but this post is about it really cause I did my nails to match an outfit I wore out for my birthday dinner (Mexican....yum! Hehe). I didn't take any pictures that night of me and or the outfit. Normally if I am copying an outfit or accessory I'd take pics of said outfit/accessory, but I don't know as I've gotten older (33...shudders) I'm not much into taking pictures of birthdays. My own anyways, other people's....no problem lol. Anyway here are my nails and I'll tell how I did this effect below. 

By the way that's the longest my nails have ever been. I was going to try to keep them as long as I could this way but they kept breaking one by one so I have to start all over again which sucks but what can you do. By  the way that was rhetorical I know what to do I'm putting some clear polish on my nails to strengthen and make them grow long again before I do another post, shouldn't be long my nails tend to grow fast. 

Now to how I did this. First I painted them white(which so happens be the color of the shirt) then I took a regular triangular make up sponge and paintedit the  two colors I wanted like this 

And just sponged it onto my nail. If you see any white us because i thought the white was dry in some spots but it wasn't , but i think it made the effect even cooler. By some miracle I barely got any polish on my skin but if you do just take a Q-tip and dip it in acetone and clean it up like you normally would any polish getting on your skin. Then put in top coat and there you have it. If you all try this post your picture on here or my Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/nailingitbymystie 

See ya!
