Hi everyone! :-) Today's nails were kind of an experiment. When I saw this super cute Modcloth dress, I couldn't wait to capture the edgy neckline with the starry mesh fabric on a semibare accent nail. I used an image plate (that I bought here) to stamp the star pattern, and later I added the rest with the help of tape for nice and crisp lines. It didn't turn out as awesome as I hoped it would though, the stars made the sharp edges of the 'neckline' fade a bit. So next time I try this, I'll probably leave out the stars. What do you guys think about my fashion-inspired nails?

Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteAh I love it!! Did you use a nude polish or is that just your nail?
ReplyDeleteThank you! And that is indeed my bare nail. ;-)
DeleteI LOVE this mani! I love the stars and wow that dress is so cute.

ReplyDeleteI think it looks great and very creative. I wouldn't leave out the stars, but maybe go with smaller star pattern if possible.
ReplyDeleteSuper cute!
ReplyDeleteThat nail looks amazing! Great idea!<3
ReplyDeleteAwesome! You made it perfectly! ^^
ReplyDeleteJane, would you consider trying this with gold stars, or with a gold background behind the stars? I think I'd like it better if it was a little more "blinged out." BTW, I tried your beautiful rainbow manicure for a Girl Scout dance and everybody LOVED it. The nail tech here couldn't get it quite right, but he tried hard. :-D
ReplyDeleteAmazing! So simple and beautiful <3
ReplyDeleteKisses, Cooki

This is so cool!! Love the peek-a-boo underneath the black!
ReplyDeleteLove this! Such a cute design!
ReplyDeleteSo great!
ReplyDeleteDon't change anything! They look amazing the way they are! I love the stars and you can see the edges well, in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteI totally admire how perfectly you paint your nails.
Greetings from Argentina!
This is perfect the way it is, so so so cool and awesome!
ReplyDeleteI love how it came out!
ReplyDeleteCool idea! :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks amazing! It matches the dress perfectly :D
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! ♥
ReplyDeletelove it. please dont leave out the stars next time ;)
ReplyDeleteLove it! It might make the stars pop more from the edge of the black line if it was a curved line like the top of the dress's neckline. Like a really low french tip line. That star edge is really cool and could be awesome with a different color star stamped under or a polka dot even. Oh the possibilities! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks really pretty, so many nice patterns at that plate :)
ReplyDeleteI think it looks awesome! The stars are proportionally bigger than the ones on the dress, but it doesn't really take away from the line! I kind of want to recreate this!
ReplyDeleteawww, i like it! :)
ReplyDeleteI love this. I totally get what you say about the 'neckline' and the stars but I still think it looks gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeletePerfect! Love it! :)
ReplyDeleteI think it's really cool! And In my opinion the stars don't ruin anything on the manicure, they look great! But I do understand what you mean about them fading out the clean neckline a little, so it would be cool to see it without the stars as well :)
ReplyDeleteThis looks soo cool, absolutely love it!! Very unique!! Great use of a stamp. :)
ReplyDeleteLove them!
ReplyDeleteI love this!! The accent nail really makes the rest of the mani POP!!
