So, this is how I have done my nails for the trip…

My biggest dilemmas while planning this trip were what to wear, and of course how to do my nails! I decided to first choose what I would wear and then I would try to come up with some nail art to match. The first dress that I selected for the tradeshow is a short summer dress from Francesca’s, that is a minty teal color with geometric patterns in pink, orange and dark blue. The second dress is just a very simple teal cotton dress, and the third one was a simple dark blue cotton dress (which I may end up swapping out for a different dark blue dress – decisions, decisions). So my nail art is mostly based around the colors and patterns that I’ll be wearing, and I wanted my nails to be bling-y… it is Vegas afterall.
I know there’s a lot going on here, so I’ll try to explain what each of the elements are. The pink is Gelish Going to the Hop with bright pink holographic foil applied into the tacky layer, the teal blue is TruGel Tantalizing Trapeze, the dark blue is Gelish Mali-Blu Me Away, the silver is two coats of Pink Gellac Fabulous Silver topped with one coat of Am I Making You Gelish, and the black is DIY Black Cat.
The art on my middle finger and thumb was hand-drawn with a dotting tool. I also spent a lot of time meticulously placing dark blue, teal and silver hex glitters in a pattern on my pinky and thumb nails. Here is a better view of the thumb.

Remember to follow me via social media to keep up with my findings at Cosmoprof, and I’ll write up a summary (or two) when I get back. You’re also in for a treat with a fun guest post while I’m away. Image may be NSFW.
