The inspiration behind my current nail polish combo came - believe it or not - from my Cath Kidston shopping bag! I love all things Kidston and so although the look may not be entirely office appropriate (or to everyone's taste), I love it nevertheless.
What do you think?
Please excuse the polka dots - I've lost my dotting tool so I created
these dots using a cocktail stick!
Base: Two coats of Barry M Nail Paint in Blue Moon (317)
Polka dots: Barry M Nail Paint in Matt White (66)
Topcoat: Barry M 3-in-1 Basecoat, Topcoat and Nail Hardener (54)
I have quite a collection of the Barry M Nail Paints now. I love their colour range and often treat myself to a couple of bottles (especially when they're on offer in Superdrug!). As ever, the quality of my most recent addition, Blue Moon, is right up there with the rest of them.
The original inspiration - I think the colours I used are spot-on (groan!):

I hope you liked it!
I've also worn a "beach hut" inspired look using these colours but didn't think to take any photos.
I painted alternate nails with two coats of Blue Moon. I left them to dry and then drew a few thin vertical Matt White stripes over the top.
I then painted my remaining nails with two coats of Matt White and then drew the stripes in Blue Moon. I completed the look with a topcoat of the clear 3-in-1 and it was done. Easy to do and oh-so-summery!
