It felt just festive enough and I couldn't wait to try out different combinations. Luckily my friend Marta was up for the challenge and let me paint her nails a pale greenish blue with aquamarine-colored glitter.

Prep I grabbed deep navy, silver glitter, and gold glitter polish along with my favorite top coat. I also grabbed an orange stick and some nail art rhinestones. 2. Base Paint a base coat with the navy polish, reminiscent of the night sky! 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
