Nail Fail

Rie from Nails and Noms did a design for the 31 Day Challenge based on a pair of shoes by Alexander McQueen called Baroque Angels and I fell in love with her design (which you can see here) so I had to take a shot at it myself!

I was really hoping that I would fall in love with this on myself just as much... but when the first grey polish didn't want to stamp, I should have taken the hint and just stopped there. I had to finish it, though, and stamped on top of that with Sally Hansen Pumping Iron because it's the only silver I have that isn't glittery. At this point, I already knew I hated it, the silver just looked all smudged and awkward and barely showed. I went ahead and added some glitter anyway. I didn't even bother to do a top coat or any clean-up. As soon as I finished taking pictures, the mani came off. =(

So, for your viewing (dis)pleasure, my nail fail:

Here are the GORGEOUS shoes that the design is modeled after, I just Googled "Alexander McQueen Baroque Angels" to find them:

Alas, the shoes are beautiful, Rie's design was beautiful, but I think I need to try mine out again! =P

What's been your worst nail fail?

Thanks for stopping by and everyone have a happy hump day! =D
