As summer is finally upon us, I am in a cheeky mood and getting more and more into polka dots.
I've been trying all sorts of different polka dot designs so I decided to share some of my results.
Right now I have a black x silver polka dot design on my nails and this is how I did it.
I used the following products.

Black "Goth" polish and the silver from the foil series by Orly, China Glaze base and top coats, a dot brush and for the finish OPI fast dry spray (I am saved by this product because usually I keep ruining my manicures by randomly touching my nails here and there).
After applying the base coat I painted my nails to look like this.

Waited for them to dry a bit and then using the dot brush I did the polka dots(if you don't have one, a toothpick will produce the same effect ^_^).
Waited a bit for the dots to dry too and then applied top coat and used the spray too. This is the final result.

I also did the same design on my friend's nails, using pastel colours (mint and pink) by H&M and Anna Sui and this is how it came out.

So the design works well with all sorts of colour combinations and it is very simple to do as well.
Next week I am gonna try more styles so stay tuned ^_^
