Marc Jacobs inspired! Konad nails attempt 15
This look was very loosely Marc Jacobs inspired. I have really bad ADD I am usually doing 4 things at once and it drives Dave batty at times. But only faux batty. He says "can't you just watch tv like a normal person" while I am iPhoning on IMDB, painting my nails and watching a movie. (sometimes a book is involved too)
Dave took that of me last winter. (That is a candy cigarette. thankyouverymuch. Always first thing people ask)
Oh sorry see. I get lost. Well today on the T home I was twittering, reading my new book and planning what do once I got home and what to wear tomorrow. I wanted to wear my Lola ring.
I got it for Christmas and that made me think about the colors and I thought how could I use those colors in a nail design? Then I thought oooh layer flowers. I stopped at CVS on my way home looking for a gold to incorporate into the design. (I MIGHT of bought a Cadbury Creme Egg. might)
I pulled out some colors to try and reinterpret the design.
I already had the purple nails (see today's outfit post) and I did three passes of flowers. Gold then red then purple. The whole thing took under 5 minutes. It only LOOKS complicated.
This is what happens when I try and take hand photos.
Yes that is a tiny paw print next to my hand. I have NO IDEA what she was up to immediately before this. I am sure I don't want to know. She was probably licking pans in the sink again.
Don't you love I put effort into the before pictures but none into the final nail shots. EH. I can't help it.
They aren't meant to be "Marc Jacobs" as much as loosely inspired by. I would love to give him his due sometime though! I think I need a plate with bows on it!
If you want your own supplies I got mine from Wow So Cool and they were kind enough when I asked if they wanted to give readers a discount to say yes, and to make a special code to receive 30% off your order. Just enter byhillary at checkout! I do not benefit in any way from any sales. The only one who does is the people who buy it! I just like to share the things l like so I asked for the code for you all!
(oh and for a change all except the first one are clickable!)

I had heard of you before though - but did not know who you were I had read about the lady in the stacks on several other blogs - and now I know to whom they refer :D
Anyway yadda yadda, nice to meet you and I shall contu=inue to follow!
CC xXx
Ps, nice nails :D
Unless it was bad then it is all true.
Hillary, it is nothing for me to be on 2 laptops, my iTouch and my Palm Pre while flipping through a magazine and watching tv - I can totally relate! :-) Also, I have flowers on my nails right now too. I did a taupey/gold color with green swirls and purple flowers. Nail stamping is ADDICTIVE!!!
Kimberley - I don't think so, I go pretty fast - it only takes a couple seconds to scrape it. Hmmmm. I will have to experiment.
Kimberly pics? SO addictive.
Is that a snuggie? I'm laughing really hard, because you are too darn cute, with your ciggy (even if its candy) painted nails, thumbing away, all wrapped up in a snuggie :) Priceless.
