Skies Above

I was wearing Hard Candy Sky and thought how appropriate to add clouds for french tips. :) I think they look quite sweet. Sinful Colors - Snow Me White for the tips. Maybe I should have included a little bird as an accent nail?

I just used a short nail art brush to freehand the clouds.

I have to include a few pictures of Sky by itself because it's simply divine. This is one of the polishes that got me started with a polish obsession. I saw a light blue on Lauren Conrad last year (in a magazine! never seen her in person) and I hunted on the internet until I saw this one and picked it up at Walmart ASAP.



I even got two compliments on it today from separate people in the mall today while shopping.

  2. LOOOOOOVE! I love that the french tips are puffy little clouds. A bird would have been a very sweet little addition on an accent nail...but perhaps a tiny one...one very small off in the distance or something, not drawing TOO much attention

  3. I love the simple design! Does this polish have a little bit of opalescence?

    @sonomabento- the blue polish has a fine medium blue shimmer that makes it just glow! I love it!

  15. Adorable! I like the color of Sky but the formula was blehhh. I'm hanging onto it though, since it's too darn purty!

  18. I tried this design with the birds you suggested :) my clouds came out a bit lumpy and less than perfect because of my white polish but here it is anyway :)
