31DC2014 Day 22 - Inspired by a Song

yup - I started skipping again. I was very, very busy this weekend doing ALL kinds of nail art things, but you'll have to wait to hear about that later...

My song inspiration is I'm A Survivor by Destiny's Child.
My bf DJ's and I guarantee he will play a handful of Beyonce/Destiny's Child songs at EVERY. GIG. How can I not love him for that?!?

I remember in the video they were on the beach in these sexy camo outfits, so I turned to our very own CANVAS lacquer G.I.Jane for my base (available now at our Etsy shop).
With a detail brush I freehanded the camo splotches using Misa Paint My Nails @Work, Maybelline Color Show Bold Gold and a few black accents in Essie Licorice.

I originally intended to stamp a camo print in gold from a Vivid Lacquer plate, but my friend had borrowed it so I improvised instead. I think a gold stamped camo would have turned out very different, more GLAMO (get it, glamorous camo!) but I still like my rustic rando version. And it does mean another camo mani is to come in the future!

CANVAS lacquer Release - GIRL GANG TRIO

Hello!

One of the reasons I've been so busy the past week was because we were making batches of our latest collection!

The Girl Gang Trio is a capsule collection we created inspired by the strength of so many awesome women we know and admire.

Flaunt It! is a gorgeous nude/champagne lacquer with a beautiful holographic glow and golden shimmer. Perfect for both the conservative and the sassy.

Flaunt it if you got it, girl!

Blood Sisters is a vampy, blackened bloody plum crelly with the opacity of a creme but the glossiness of a jelly. An edgy shade that's right on trend.

Love this lacquer for life

G.I. Jane is a complex olive/bronze shade packed with golden micro-flake shimmer, copper glow and sparks of blue and green. 

This shade will definitely command attention.

 SO excited about this mini collectionm - hope you enjoy it too! Visit the Etsy shop here.
