Here's my Mani Monday....mermaid nails in three simple steps, inspired by Leila's mermaid Barbie.
You will need:
*Megan *Jessica *Miranda *Leah *Portia *Maria (or any of your favorite colors in a variety of blues and greens, one with some glitter and one different color with a hint of metallic - Maya or Emma would work perfectly ) *a nail dotting tool or toothpick *base coat *top coat
Step One: First thing's first - you'll need to do a coat of base coat, then one or two coats of Megan.
Step Two: Using your dotting tool, do random dots of all your blue and green colors from the tip of the nail, to about a third of the way down. Then do a few random dots of your metallic color (Maria in this case.) Do this to your pinky finger, middle finger and thumb.
Step Three: On your index and ring fingers do a coat of Portia or your favorite glitter. Go over everything with your top coat.
Voila, you're done! Enjoy your mermaid-inspired manicure!
Sticking with an ocean theme, I want to show off 29 in Heel's Ocean Ombre Mani:
Gorgeous!

Hi Heather! New follower, found you through Sew Caroline. Looking forward to getting to know you. I really appreciate the manicure photos. I work in a job where having lovely polished nails just doesn't work (research - gloves on, gloves off, and I've just given up on polish) but I sure enjoy looking at the photos of lovely manicures!
I've been seeing people do the ombre look on their nails and I'm LOVING it! Very cute
so pretty!
