all matchy matchy

Hey everyone,
hope those of you who had to worry about it survived the storms today. Our weather person kept telling us how bad it was going to get, that 40 tornados touched down in our state, yadda yadda... but my county hardly saw a thing.

wtf.

Anyway, in getting out my spring & summer clothes, I came across one of my favorite warm weather dresses, & decided to do a look & nails using it as inspiration!

Yay! I love color blocking.


I had no idea what direction I was going in when I started this look,
But I actually quite like how it turned out :)

I used:
a metallic white on the inner corners, metallic salmon, metallic teal from ULTA's metallic palette
Urban Decay's 'Blackout' on corners
UD's 'Skimp' on brow bone
Covergirl's Line Exact Liquid Eyeliner
Too Faced's 'Lashgasm' mascara (LOVE this stuff- may do review later)

Then for the nails:

I attempted some form of crappy color blocking. In the end, my hand just shook to much for the black line to be straight, & the other two colors (though I only used 2 coats) became thick & gloopy :/

Polishes used:
OPI's 'OPI on Collins Ave.'
Sinful Colors' Rise & Shine'
black nail art paint on striper brush

Now obviously I wouldn't wear these together because I would look hilarious, but I thought it was neat to play with the dress on both my eyes & nails.

What do ya think?
:D
