If I See One More ____ Mani, I'll Puke!

Have I mentioned that I love doing collabs?! Well, I do. And of course, I've done a gazillion more!

A while back, I did a collab with a few other girls were we did designs that aren't necessarily bad or ugly, but are overdone. So in another collab I did recently on IG with Amy and Mai, we repeated that same theme, for a second version.

This time, our "overdone manis" were Hello Kitty, the quilted technique (btw, if you can accomplish it, I give you kudos because it is a PAIN!), chevrons, and the half moon dream catcher (they can be really gorgeous, but again, PITA!).


In my mani, that poor excuse for a Hello Kitty is on a base of Color Club Sugar Sheer and Lush Lacquer Pink Panther. My quilted nail is China Glaze For Audrey with dots of Blonde Bombshell. My chevron base is Blonde Bombshell, and my pinky gradient is Sugar Sheer and For Audrey (topped with Fairy Dust, of course, because that is also ridiculously overdone)!

Well it's fun to cross limits, but i still like it - it's far from *puke-worthy* - Hllow Kitty is cute and the middle finger is really nice :)

Thank you! :) That quilted technique is hard!
OMG, this design looks so time consuming :D But the end result is cute :)

I don't think I could actually accomplish any of these (except the half moon)!

I never thought putting some indentions in your polish for a quilted nail would be that hard! I do it on accident all the time so!
Are they all that overdone? I dunno, I guess I don't visit enough nail blogs, haha :-)

Haha. They are. Chevrons are the most done.
Hehe I really like this mani! There's a lot going on, but everything looks cute together. :)

Well that's damn pretty! LOL, definitely overdone theme - right up there with waterfall manis IMO ;) You guys should make up a whole list of those and do a big collab! I'd be so in!

Yes! That one too! I didn't even think of that! That would be a fun collab though.
I like it. Looks cool :)
