Hi everyone!
I’m really excited for this look because the song I’ve chosen to be inspired by is probably one of my favorites of all time! I love the group Bastille, and their new album, Bad Blood, has been my obsession since its release. The best song off the album, in my opinion, is Pompeii, a gorgeous song featuring strong vocals. I love to wake up to this in the morning because it just makes my day better! The music video is amazing, check it out here!
I took my inspiration for my nails today from scenes from the music video. The design was done completely freehand with toothpicks, so I’m not going to explain how I drew each design. However, I will include screen grabs to show which scene from the video each nail was inspired by!
Inspiration for pinky
Inspiration for middle finger
Inspiration for pointer finger
Inspiration for ring finger
And the final design…
Natural, indoor lighting
Artificial, indoor lighting
I hope you guys like this design (and this song!) as much as I do! I’m including a pic below of all the polishes I used (and there were A LOT of them!)
