Dots and Stripes, Finger Foods Weekly Post


It's been a couple weeks since I checked in with my ladies over at the Finger Foods Theme Buffet and did a prompt. As it's only once a week, I really should get these in weekly! This week was dots and stripes and here's what I came up with.

I started with one finger in Julep Janel Bombshell, one in Sinful Colors Gorgeous and two in KBShimmer Lottie Dottie. Lottie Dottie was actually the colour inspiration for this manicure, however I find that The Julep is looking a lot more red in pictures. In my hand both these colours in the bottles appeared to match a lot better. Oh well, I still like the final look. As an FYI, this is three easy coats of Lottie Dottie. Isn't this polish happy...something about circle glitters just makes me happy!



After my base colour and bottom third contrasting swipes were dry, I went in with white acrylic for the stripes and added the contrasting dots in the polishes. Topper and that is all! Check out the InLinkz below for all the Dots and Stripes lovelies!

Cheers all,
