Anchors away! Nautical nails

Hey guys! These were done for a theme challenge for a nail group I'm in.. my first time ever doing one of those, haha. The theme was nautical/sailor related, so I went with anchors and nautical stars, obviously. They're alright.. I'm not 100% happy with them, the stars especially.. I hate stars. I was hissing and cursing the entire time I was doing them.

I've gotten a few questions about the change in my nail shape.. I was bored, mainly. Oval's are kind of a pain to shape, but I'm enjoying how elegant they look and how they make my fingers look longer. And yes, these are still my natural nails. I'll probably be cutting them short after Dragon*Con.

Not much else to say, really.. been hot as hell here! Ugh. Hope everyone's been staying cool. See you next time!

Simple swallow and rose.. also, yay diploma!

In light of that terrible theft page actually being deleted, I decided to post. I'm still not going to update as often as I used to, most likely.. especially when I start working. Anyways. I had Cinderella by Sinful Colors on for a few days and it was getting a little chippy, so I did a little bit of nail art to cover the worst of it. Nothin' fancy.

Polishes:
Cinderella, Sinful Colors
Acrylic paint

I also picked up this bad boy today, and registered to take the state boards. I feel accomplished.. which is rare, haha.
