Purple Prom Nails

I did this style based off of an idea I saw on pinterest (just like most of the styles I do).  Normally, I wouldn't have chosen purple and black together, but I did it to show my little sister who was trying to come up with a nail design for prom, and her dress was purple and black.  I don't love the way the spots turned out, but they're ok.  I might try this again in different colors, but I probably need to look for a better tool to do it; the needle doesn't work as well as I had hoped.

Meet me at the Club, it's goin' down!


These have probably been my favorite nails so far, the picture doesn't do them justice!  They felt very chic, like I was ready to go out on the town--I only wish I had an outfit that matched.  One thing I loved most about them is that for whatever reason (I don't think I did anything differently??) they lasted a long time, almost a whole 7 days.  And that seven days included helping my brother move into his new house the day after I did them.

I really love these colors together and want to try doing a gradient nail with them, though I might wait awhile because such dark colors aren't as fun for summer.
