I was having a bad week, and needed a little pick me up - so I picked up a new bottle of Essie, got out the nail stickers, and gave myself a little manicure (and paraffin wax dip as well!)
It was just enough to bring me out of my funk...and the finished product was pretty cute to boot!
The coral color I bought (free with a coupon I should have known better) turned out to be a little less coral, and a tad more tangerine/orange - but I didn't let that stop me, and once it dried, it was a pretty fun color!
I used my go-to Essie Turquoise & Caicos.
I painted an accent nail with the Essie, and used two chevron decals. Talk about easy! They go right on, and you just trim up what is left over. I can't wait to use these again, maybe on a pedi next time!
I used two decals on my thumbs as well - this mani was the perfect little pick-me up and touch of summer that I needed!
Adorable Nail Decals from here (available in many colors as well!)
