Tribal Nail Art

Wow, two posts in one day!  In my previous post I had a swatch of Essie Meet Me At Sunset, and now because I can't seem to leave anything alone, I've added some tribal nail art to it. 

This was my first go at anything close to tribal print, and I pretty much winged it. I'm really pleased with how it turned out!  White is Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear White On, and the black is acrylic paint.  Freehanded with a striping brush and dotting tool. 





Mildly off-topic, my parents came home tonight from a 2-week vacation in Mykonos, Greece.  There were there to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary!  Their flights had an 11-hour-long layover in London, and my mom bought my sister and I some British magazines and such.  My mom and I have a thing with international fashion magazines.  She bought me an InStyle UK, and it came with a bottle of Nails Inc. polish!  This was my first British polish, so I was quite excited.  Unfortunately, the bottle doesn't have a name; if anyone recognizes it please let me know! 
EDIT: After doing some searching, I discovered that the colour is Power Pink.  Apparently the box that mine came in was just missing a sticker! 



Also, while in Mykonos, my mom bought me a beautiful bracelet with a charm very common in Greek jewelry, thought to ward off the evil eye.  


She got me a pair of UGGs too, (not a present you'd expect from Greece, eh?) but I've been wanting a pair forever.  Given the clothes I wear being a dancer going to and from rehearsal, they are very practical.  

I'll leave you with that for tonight. How do you think I did for my first attempt at tribal nails? I love comments :) Good night!
