How did you do the stripes? Free hand? Tape?
I painted my nails last night:
The glitter is iridescent so it shines like the rainbow!

Ooo! I love that glitter polish! Does it change according to how the light hits it? Or did you have to not do a top coat to allow it to do it?
I had a nail polish once that changed colors in the sun but I couldn't use a top coat or it wouldn't work. I've been hesitant to try other ones since!
Free hand! I don't have any fun tools like that peel away nail tape and stuff so I do everything by hand - I just used the nail polish brush and tried to stay as even as I could. It didn't come out perfect but I'm happy with most of the nails lol!

It changes according to how the light hits it. I have a base coat, two coats of the navy blue, one coat of the glitter and one topcoat on.
I also have a polish that changes color in the sun but it works even when I put a top coat on. Maybe yours was just a fluke?
It came out really well! You can actually use scotch tape as long as you let the polish dry long enough.

Hmmm could be. It was one of the very first polishes that had that effect, and I believe I had part of the trial run to be honest, so it could have just not been made properly? I've been hesitant to experiment with others because I didn't want to waste my money and have them come out weird when I applied lol!
Really? I thought it would rip up the polish? I'll have to give that a try! If I do the base coat the night before and then the lines the following afternoon that should be long enough to wait, right? My polish is currently majorly chipping so I'm debating what I want to do with it next. I know for July 4th I'm doing Red White & Blue because my family reunion is also that weekend so I want it extra festive for that, but that's still a couple of weeks away and I don't feel like having chipped polish until then! xD;

Polish is pretty strong so it shouldn't rip it off. If you wait overnight and do it that should totally be fine. Also if you want to make the tape a little less sticky you could always stick it to your shirt one or to times so it picks up a little fuzz and isn't quite so tacky.

Ohhh that's a good idea! I'll probably take this polish off tomorrow so I'll apply the base then and try it in a couple of days! Will post my results! Now the question is what colors to use.... Any combo suggestions? :D

Hm... That's a tough one. You could do yellow and black to reflect your current avi. XD

Lol! I'll have to look though my shelves and see if I have any black left! I do like that idea though. Maybe I'll do something similar to what I have now, but with black as the base and a color as the highlight! And just do a rainbow of bright colors! I think I have white that I can put down as a lightening base for the stripe so that should work!

That's an interesting idea! You'll have to take a pic to show us how it turns out!

Will do! Once my head stops spinning from this weather I'm going to sit and take what's left of my nail polish off - then I'll be able to start on the new base coat - the weather is seriously miserable today so I'm in a funk of not wanting to move just yet LOL I'm thinking the smell of chemicals will just make me worse at the moment! ;P

Oo that sounds fun! I love walking through gardens - they're so peaceful! I really want to go back to Hershey Gardens when all of the flowers are in bloom - we missed the full bloom for the season when we went Memorial Weekend so it was a little disappointing, but overall it was amazing so I can't complain too much. I just wished we lived closer to things like that! :(

I was really hoping to see the bluebells but I missed them by a few weeks at least. The roses were past peak bloom as well but it was still fun.

I had on Desert at Dusk, but took them off. I think Saturday I'll put Patriot on my fingers, I already have it on my toes.
I'd love to visit a garden like that. We don't have anything like that here either.

Oh! That reminds me that I could do a special mani for the fourth. This one looks easy enough since I have red and white detailing polishes:

It's suuuuper hard to do something like that with my off hand but just doing it on one accent nail on each hand shouldn't be too terrible. I can't imagine doing it on every nail though...
