Welcome to March, everyone!
As a Florida girl I am not use to it snowing two days in a row in March. This time of the year in Florida the weather is in the 70s and all my friends are at the beach!
Being a broke college kid and not knowing what to do on these cold days, I decided to go to the thrift store with some of my friends to find some cute vintage clothes.
Little did I know, I was coming out of the thrift shop with an idea for a nail design.
The vintage look below has to be one of my favorite nail designs so far! It’s super easy and beyond adorable!
To get this look, I painted every other nail using Revlon’s Minted. The nails that were not painted Minted I used Sephora’s Give Peach a Chance by OPI.
After I let my nails dry, I grabbed a mechanical pencil because I couldn’t find my dotting tool–depressing I know. I took the mechanical pencil and dipped it in Give Peach a Chance. Then I gently dabbed the polish on the nail in a circular motion to create the bud of the flower. Do this multiple times all over the nail. This step is shown in the picture below.
Next use a stripe right green polish to create the leaves of the flowers.
Then, I added little white lines in the bud of the flower using a white stripe right brush. Be sure to make a small C shape in the middle of the flower bud, then separate little lines around the C shape.
The last step adds detail to the flower bud, making it look more realistic. You can also add white lines to the leaves. If you wish to do so I would recommend mixing some of the green polish with white polish to get a light green color. This will make the leaves look more natural.
On the Give Peach a Chance colored nails I used the white stripe right tool to add three vertical lines on each nail. You can also use a dotting tool to add dots all over the nail instead of lines, creating a different vintage look.
To finish this look add a top coat. You may also clean up the nails by taking a cotton swab dipped in nail polish remover and take off the extra polish around the nail.
That’s all there is for this simple and sweet nail design. Give it a try!
Happy painting! 🙂
Polish Me Perfect 
I am absolutely in love with this precious nail design! It’s perfect for March with the flowers and touches of green. I am so jealous of how wonderful these turned out, and I’m excited that it does not look too difficult for even someone like me to try. Thank you for sharing — you are so talented and creative with this!
Thank you!
I have had my nails painted before. It was by my friends while I was asleep of course. I do have to say though, these are some cute designs!
hahah that’s funny! Thank you!
