Latte Love

The holiday cups at Starbucks always put me in a festive mood.

I received this brown peel off polish form Born Pretty Store in exchange for an honest review. Shadow of Flower is rich and creamy like the perfect latte. And, it only took two coats for full coverage. The polish goes on smooth and even, and is a "must have" for your polish collection. It is a lot lighter than what is pictured online, but I like it more.

This design is inspired by one of the Starbucks cups, but of course, it is a gamble which of the four designs you will receive. I wanted the red striped cup, so I got the holly one two lattes in a row. Still matches the mani I guess. To create this look:

1. Apply the base colors - index and fingers in red, the rest in brown.
   
2. For the index and ring fingers, use a nail vinyl (or freehand with a nail art brush) to section off a vertical portion of the nail. Then, paint the left side with dark red. The two nails should have different width sections (i.e., the dark red part should be wider on one nail).
   
3. Stamp dark brown coffee beans on the pinky, and white coffee cups on the middle finger.
   
4. Add a white round stud to the base of the ring finger and thumb.
