Vampire nails

I didn't realize until I looked at the little box that said "title" that I would have to name my nails, this seems like a big responsibility. I mean I know that I named my dog (Millie is the perfect name for a basset hound) but putting a name to nails seems like something a professional would do and I am clearly not a professional. Regardless, the box exists so I have decided to name these nails “vampire nails”. I’ve clearly never met a vampire but I imagine if they existed and decided to paint their nails they would pick black and red, so I’m going to say this is a solid name choice.

In case you were curious about the state of Millie’s nails.

To create my vampire nails I used Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure – All Fired up and Orly – Liquid Vinyl. For the stripes I got an awesome set of striper polishes (Shany) off of Amazon. I’m a huge fan of them, aside from the fact that a few of them are pretty runny they are wonderful. How can you go wrong with 24 colors for $24.99?

When I started doing my own nail art I did what any good 21^st century girl would do and Googled the hell out of it. I found the tape method worked the best for me when for French tips. For these nails I taped them twice, once for the red and after some top coat and dry time I taped again for the black. Hope you enjoy!
