Chambray & Polka Dot Nails With a Bow Accent

Yesterday Emily over at Isn't That Charming posted an adorable Canadian-tuxedo outfit that inspired me to create the below nail polish look.

Emily's outfit used a chambray style polka-dotted denim skirt, a light-colored denim button-up top, a cream-colored belt with a bow clasp, and a knotted pearl necklace. Here's my mani, inspired by her outfit. I even had a polish that looked like medium-light colored denim!



I used an off-white, Jasmine-scented polish from Forever21's Love & Beauty line and a light blue Wet 'n Wild polish called Rain Check:



This blue polish was totally buried in my stash - I haven't noticed it in god knows how long. Each of these polishes took 3 coats before they were adequately opaque.


The polka dots are a little bit wonky this time - sometimes I have the shakes while trying to use my dotting tool and it can turn making round polka dots into quite the unpredictable shit show. My polka dots aren't always this skewed. Check out something a little more pristine here:  Pink and Yellow Polka Dots Mani
