I did not fall off the face of the planet, I swear. This weekend was busy with family Thanksgiving, trying to get our apartment ready for showing (we’re moving soon!) & dealing with a super upset stomach that left me with no energy for blogging. I decided to take a little break to recoup, wear some glitter on my nails. I’m finally feeling a little bit better, so I wanted to get a blog post up! & what’s better to blog about than chevron claws!
For this manicure, the polishes used were:
- Base Coat: OPI Natural Nail Base Coat
- Top Coat: Cutex Quick Dry Top Coat
- Nails INC St Martian’s Lane
- Nicole by OPI Phil’s Paradise
- Kiss Products Nail Art Striper in Black
- Snail Vinyls Deep Single Chevron Nail Vinyls
This design is very reminiscent of my very first chevron moon design, colour wise. Comparing the two, I’ve definitely come a long way since those early days! Thank goodness for nail vinyls—I no longer have to create my own triangles in order to get the design right! But hey… it worked. & those first chevron moons are what started my all out obsession with the design, which has obviously lasted all this time!
I’m feeling like I’m in a bit of a nail art lull right now. Even with Halloween approaching, I’m just struggling to be in the mood to paint my nails anything other than a solid colour (&, even then, I can barely make up my mind on what to wear.) My birthday is coming up on Sunday, so I’m dedicated to doing a fun design in celebration—maybe birthday cupcakes? Good thing I have 5 days to make up my mind! Off to Pinterest I go.
What do you think of these chevron claws? Let me know your thoughts in the comments below! & if you have any birthday nail suggestions for me, please share! 💜
Lately, I’ve been looking at the CND Nail Art page for inspiration. Of course, this means I have to learn how to do various things…I’m not great at that. 🙂
Ooooh I’ve never checked out their nail art page! I’ll have to get it a try. I always find trying new things so overwhelming. But once you find a look you love it’s so much fun to play.
