Day 23-Inspired by a Movie

After feeling somewhat uninspired for today’s manicure as well as exhausted from going to a wedding fair yesterday (with tons of wedding swag!), I left it up to my fiancé to choose a movie and he went with “Life of Pi”. My tiger stripes aren’t done in the traditional style, but I sort of like ‘em!

I started off with three coats of Zoya – Arizona, one coat of China Glaze – 5 Golden Rings and then painted on the stripes, pi sign and French tip with black acrylic paint.

    Very cute! Also very Halloween appropriate :) I loved the book Life of Pi but I've never seen the movie!

      The book is good too if you ever want to give that a read! It's fairly light and easy to read on the bus or just before bed :)
