Day 5–Blue Chevron Nails

I had no real ideas for what to do, but I knew it had to include A-England’s Order of the Garter which is a beautiful slightly glass-flecked blue. I started with two coats of Order of the Garter, SH Xtremewear in Celeb City for the silver and finished off with another round of Order of the Garter for the tips. I added silver dots because the design reminded me of a jacket with silver buttons. No idea why…

    I know the silver embellishments are supposed to look like a jacket with buttons, but it reminds me of some type of arrow :P Not quite sure why..

    Loving this challenge, it's definitely producing some fun looks!

      My fiance said the same thing. He said arrows as well. I really didn't know what I was doing ;-)

      Alright, let's just call it arrows, I think that's what most people seem to be seeing!
