Day 9 - Rainbow Nails; USE ALL THE COLORS!

Day 9 - Rainbow Nails

Today is rainbow nails! What better way to show off my inner 90's kid than with Lisa Frank inspired nails. If you don't know who Lisa Frank is then you have not lived.

Obviously a fashion icon. 

That is what it looks like when you throw up rainbows. Lisa was ahead of her time. Little did she know we would all be copying her rainbow gradient with animal print 20 years later. Looking through the shop confirmed how timeless Lisa Frank really is. She's been selling the same exact stuff, for what, 30 years and kids eat this up like its a brand new idea. Marketing geniuses. Now if only she'd come to the land of grown ups and collaborate with Betsey Johnson or someone who would accept her inner wild child and make some rainbow leopard/zebra print pumps! Seriously. I'd buy them in a heart beat.

So I guess I'm done rambling for now, onto the manicure!

Here are the polishes I used. When I said in the title "USE ALL THE COLORS" I literally meant I used so many colors.

There are a few polishes I can't remember names for at the moment so I'll update them later when I get the chance!

If I didn't make it clear earlier, I just want to say that I freaking love Lisa Frank. She combines all of my favorite things: bright colors, glitter, animal print, cute furry animals and makes these fantastically horrible creations with them. What more could a girl ask for in life? Nothing. Well... except maybe some more nail polish.


I'm obsessed with this manicure. Usually I post these manicures hoping people will like them, but this one I don't even care because I'm obsessed enough for everyone.

P.S. This manicure is dedicated to my roommate! She had a poster over her bed sophomore year that was most definitely Lisa Frank. Even though she swears it was just some abstract grown up rainbow splatter thing, I know better. I can spot a genuine Lisa Frank creation a mile away. So here's to you Erin, embracing your inner 90's kid before it was cool.
