Day 2: Blue OMD Challenge

Day two and the challenge is blue, I own so many blue polishes, it is my favourite colour in all of its shades but today I want to show you one of my untrieds- Essie Rock the Boat a pale blue with shimmer. As this is from a nautical themed Essie collection I thought I would show you it with a starfish over the top. The starfish was inspired by Chalkboard Nails and the first one on my ring finger went really well but the second one on my index is a little dodgy.

I also added some ripples to the background to make it look more like the bottom of the ocean in Essie Naughty Nautical and Elegant touch white. The starfish is in Barry M Passion Fruit with dots using the Barry M nail art pen in black and NYC Lexington Yellow.
I love this :). It's really cute but doesn't look childish which I like.
And here is Rock the Boat alone, the perfect pale blue with shimmer running throughout. Remember to look at all the other blue designs here, purple tomorrow.

  2. I love that you did this! I've had that chalkboard starfish idea in my back pocket for a while now- so glad to see another version of it.
