You know by now that I often have phases where I’ll repeatedly reach for one color or do my nails in similar ways. I guess it’s because my moods last for a certain amount of time and specific things correspond to the mood I’m currently in. Do you experience similar phases?
In any case, this nail look is very similar to the one I shared with snakeskin print here. This time I used leopard print decals on my nails. Since leopard print is in the warm color range, I thought paring it with shimmery white pearls would help to bring that out while still providing a nice contrast with the brown and black. I like the result, but what do you think?
Thank you for reading. Be Kind. Be you.
If it speaks to you, I used:
China Glaze Strong Adhesion base coat, here
China Glaze Fast Forward top coat, here
Leopard print nail decals, as part of the set I own here and similar (part of a set) here

February 27, 2019 at 1:51 amThe leopard print looks really pretty with the white pearls! I go through similar phases too where I’ll like something for a period of time and keep on wearing it. It seems animal print is something everyone’s loving right now and I love how you decided to add it to your nail design!

March 2, 2019 at 10:15 pmThank you so much Kara! You’re right that leopard print seems to be on everyone’s mind lately. I think seeing it so much make one remember to pull it out more often 🙂
