Pastel Misadventures

I have gone off the tracks a bit with today's manicure. Let's just say, I'm not happy with it. 

I actually started this mani with Zoya's Blu on three fingers and Julep's Adrianna on the other two.  My plan was to then start a chevron pattern with the other colors.  This did not go that well.  I think either my nails were too short or my taping too wide.  I did two of the Zoya based nails before I scrapped the plan.  I was just NOT feeling it!  

Phase two consisted of me sponging on Julep's Simone and Zoya's Godiva over the Blu and Simone and Blu over the Julep.....

I don't know if I have been working with a lot of brights lately or what my issues stem from, but this just feels washed out and blah to me.  I do like these pastel colors together.  Maybe it is the glitter on some, not on others.  I am not sure.  I do know that this will most likely be coming off tonight.  But this is also part of why I like and started this blog:  it is good to share the process and what doesn't really work as well as what does.
