A Royal Skittlette

Afternoon! So many double posts going on up in here! I've got a skittlette manicure to share with you today. Marta of Chit Chat Nails is having a skittlette nail art contest. She defines skittlette as a manicure with two or three different accent nails. Y'all know how much I love to mix up my nails so I was super excited to enter this contest!

The inspiration for these nails was OPI Can't Let Go Liquid Sand. I had recieved it in the mail the day before I did these, but knew I wouldn't have time to swatch it and then create a look. So I put it on my middle nail and thumb and completely fell in love.

I love the combination of purple and gold so I ran with that for the rest of my nails. My index is Alter Ego Goldpanner with a dotted gradient using, Nail the B.Y.T.C.H. Fruity Cutie Butte, China Glaze Creative Fantasy and Rimmel Night Before. My ring nail is my reverse fishtail using Creative Fantasy, Essie As Good As Gold and Night Before. My pinky is Night Before with an ikat print using Good As Gold and a black and white.

I love the colour purple. Sometimes I go through phases were I become obsessed with a colour and this happens quite often with purple. When I was in first year of university one of my friends made me a purple box with purple candy and a plethora od purpleness.

I'm really excited to see the rest of the entries in the nail art competition! What do you think of my royal skittlette? Do you like the purple and gold colour combination?

Hope you're having a great day!
