Yesterday's Nails: Crazy Navy
I wanted to preface this by saying that I am not normally one to show a gazillion pictures of the same manicure, but for this one, I felt that several pictures were necessary to show just how pretty this was. This is 2 coats of OPI Russian Navy and 1 coat of Klean Color Chunky Holo Bluebell...
I had been wanting to dig Russian Navy out of the depths of my storage container for a few days. Russian Navy is one of those colors that it took me several uses to like it. When I first got it, right after the OPI Russia collection came out, I loved it in the bottle, but hated it on the nail. At the time, I had acrylics, and I thought it just was too much on the long nails. However, once I tried it on shorter nails, I liked it much more. Unfortunately, right after I applied my manicure, I got tip wear (grrr), so I decided to apply something over top. My first thought was to do glitter tips and then I saw Klean Color Chunky Holo Bluebell in my glitter/holo drawer. I adore these Klean Color Chunky Holos. Bluebell is a slightly blue base with random-sized multi-chrome (green, gold, red) glitter. I think this is a fabulous combo.
