Inspired by Shoes of Prey: Take Three

Welcome to another round of Shoes of Prey inspired nail art! Today I'm inspired by this great colour block wedge. The combination of orange, navy and white is slightly nautical, slightly summery, but definitely trendy and unique! I love that little dash of snakeskin print as well (I'm obsessed with snakeskin right now. It's like a classy version of leopard print).

The crossover design of the strap inspired me to create this fishtail design. I used Butter London Yummy Mummy (click to see my swatch and review) as the base, and Chanel Blue Rebel, Ulta3 Tangerine Tango and Essie Blanc.

What do you think of this fishtail braid design? The actual fishtail accent nail took ages to do, because I had to wait for all the layers to dry in between coats. But the "half-fishtail" on the other fingers was really quick and easy to do. I think it's one of my favourite styles so far!

These shoes are available from Shoes of Prey for $199, with free shipping worldwide. And of course, you can customise the design yourself if you wish.

Inspired by: Alejandro Ingelmo Slingbacks

One of my favourite non-nail blogs is Shoeperwoman, a daily fix of shoes. That's right, just loads of gorgeous shoes to drool over, and nothing else. Maximum shoe-age!

That's where I spotted these Alejandro Ingelmo slingbacks. Silver and baby blue is one of my favourite colour combinations. And why not, because they work so well together, as evidenced below.

I've really been getting into the shoe-inspired nail art recently, so of course I had to do a mani based on these as well. It's the perfect basis for ruffian nails, using A England Excalibur, ORLY Pretty Ugly* and OPI Matte Top Coat to mimic the suede finish.

If you have loads of disposable income, you can purchase these shoes from Shoescribe for a mere AU$795. But think how fabulous you'll look with your matching shoes and mani! Totally worth it.
