Monkey See Monkey Do: Funky Color Blocking

So for Monkey See Monkey Do today, I wanted to show off my color blocking. I have to admit, I did this first then thought to use it for MSMD because so many girls color block and they're awesome at it. This is another mani I did for Milani using: Fresh Teal, Totally 80's (lime yellow), White on the Spot, Teal (glitter) and Silver Dazzle (lines). I like the way this turned out and the colors I chose, it's funky yet looks pretty cool and retro. I really need practice using a stripe brush so I did the Silver Dazzle using a dotting tool (my bad!), either way though, my hand needed to be super steady and it was only semi-steady :) Overall not a bad look.

Color Blocking Tuxedos

I have another mani I did for the Milani Pinterest board for you today. It reminded me of little tuxedos, minus the bow tie. I used Black Swift, White on the Spot and Gems. It's a pretty easy tape mani to do but the Gems part was hard to work with and I got a bit of lift/smear with it so my lines ended up not as smooth and straight as I had hoped. I think this is the first time I've taped off like this and now I want to do this again but add some cute fimo bow ties :) Check out the boards to see other bloggers' manis and don't forget to vote on the Halloween Nail Art, there's some fabulous stuff happening over HERE. I'm also starting a Halloween challenge on Monday so you'll see some themed manis and I'll link you to the pinterest board to see all the participants :)
