Day 25 #31DC2014: Fashion
This prompt is pretty much in the same category as the delicate print - I don't really have much to go off of. Of course I have an appreciation for fashion, but I'm definitely not a fashion forward person. The only person I do try to keep up with is Betsey Johnson! I adore her. There used to be a Betsey Johnson store in the Galleria in Houston, and although I couldn't afford her stuff at the time, I would go through and look at all the clothing and jewelry. It was just so unique and beautiful! Then when she made her comeback and started having her merchandise sold in stores like Macy's and Dillard's I started my collecting! Brock has even gotten in on the fun - we would make special trips to stores to see what new Betsey stuff was in. I have a nice collection of what we like to call "pieces" lol. I have large blingy necklaces like gangstas do - except mine are of unicorns and peacocks and rainbows ;).
For the nails, I knew I had to throw in as much hot pink as possible! It's not Betsey if it ain't hot pink!! I wanted to incorporate all the things that are considered trademark for her brand: hot pink, roses, animal print, and of course BLING! So I did her signature floral print which is bright yellow with pink roses. Then I created a skull with rhinestones and a cheetah print background, although you can't see it very well Next I painted her perfume bottle called TooToo on my pointer finger, complete with lightning bolt! :) I really liked that detail of the look. Then i painted her famous runway shirt on my ring finger. I so wish I could get my paws on one of those shirts! Then finally, I painted her signature on my thumb. Overall, I think these turned out magnificent! I didn't want to take these off. It was days like this that mad me wish I had painted them on falsies so I could keep them forever, but I guess a bajillion pictures are going to have to do!
