Day 25: Inspired by fashion

Nobody ever said this prompt meant "inspired by good fashion" ... and that's exactly where I took this one!



I was inspired by tacky Christmas sweaters! (Thanks to Steph for suggesting this idea) They are totally not fashionable in the slightest, but I think this mani turned out SO CUTE!



I used a base of Sinful GoGo Girl and drew the little snowmen with acrylic paint. The snowflakes were done using a small Konad stamp and white Sinful polish.

Here's my inspiration for this mani:



What do you think of these tacky snowmen nails? Appropriate for the holidays?

    UM YEAH this is probably the best manicure I've ever seen!! Ugly Christmas sweater parties are huge in my area, we usually go to a few every year. I need to do this manicure for them! I love it!

    OMFG, hahaha! I love this Amanda! This mani is so adorable I can't take it. And it definitely looks better on your nails than it does on that sweater. ;)

    I'm kind of in love with these nails. But you know me, glitter and tacky are basically my middle names.

    So cute! I love it. I recently tried to do snowmen on my nails and it didn't turn out as cute as yours. I may need to invest in some acrylic paint.
