April’s Nails Challenge - Flower Power

A new week, a new challenge, a new manicure!

As you've probably noticed, I don't have many floral manicures since floral patterns are not really my thing. This time I was actually considering skipping this challenge until I received a package from Born Pretty Store, which contained, among other awesome things, these lovely round pieces of neon glitter. ^_^

That's when inspiration hit me!

T.P.A Group Challenge: 17. Hippie nails

Late night post... old habits die hard! :P
Tonight I'm going to show you a manicure inspired by the HIPPIE "trend" that started way back in the 1960s and survived up to this point. It's a lot more than a trend, actually - for some people it's a lifestyle and for others is an inspiration.
The hippie "style" is characterized by bright colors, flowery patterns, stripes, dots, peace signs, musical notes and everything that suggests FREEDOM, so I decided to paint my nails as bright as possible, with a lot of patterns, colors and almost everything that I can relate to HAPPINESS. :D

O postare tarzie in noapte, cum aveam obiceiul sa fac mai demult! :P
In aceasta seara am sa va arat o manichiura inspirata de "curentul" HIPPIE, care dateaza inca din anii '60 si a supravietuit pana in ziua de azi. Este mai mult decat un curent, sincer - pentru unii oameni este un stil de viata, iar pentru altii este o sursa de inspiratie.
"Stilul" hippie se caracterizeaza prin culori vii, modele inflorate, dungi, buline, semne ale pacii, note muzicale si cam tot ce sugereaza LIBERTATE, asa ca am decis sa imi pictez unghiile cat mai vesel, cu o multime de modele, culori si aproape tot ce este, in opinia mea, legat de FERICIRE. :D
