Tomorrow is my birthday!!! I’m lucky it falls on a Friday this year – aren’t Friday birthdays the best?  When we were planning the NAIL Linkup for May, I thought that 1980s nails would be the perfect nails to wear on my birthday! A little less traditional then cupcake nails, I feel 1980s nails are a little more ‘me’ so here are my brithday nails!

I know neon is everywhere, and when I think of the 1980s, I definitely think NEON, but for my 1980s nails I wanted to try something a little different.  I decided to go a little more “Miami Vice” using colors that remind me of sitting on a beach in Miami.

I used four nail polishes to create my 1980s nails:

For the chevrons, I used snail vinyls small chevrons.1980s, 1980s nails, 1980s nail art, 1980s pattern, nail that accent, nail art, chevron nail art, essie blossom dandy,

Until next time,

    Happy birthday! I cracked up when I read about your Miami Vice mani! I loved the white/off-white jacket with the neon pastel teeshirts! I remember one of my bosses came to work one day with that look – poor guy just wasn’t built with the physique or the attitude to pull it off. I love, love!! your mani – way to go!
