Monday Blues : Mermaid Nails

And it's back to the fishbowl on this lovely day of Monday.
Speaking of fishbowls and fish, I had been meaning to make Mermaid Nails happen for a while but it just slipped my mind over and over, until I saw a rather gorgeous interpretation of the water maiden nails last week and decided I have to make that happen too.

I know the idea behind mermaid nails are scales but I like the idea of water on my nails quite a lot too, so I combined the two. More or less.

The glitter is a bit more Aqua than it looks, seen as it is indeed called Aqua Glitter and is by Barry M.
You might remember it as my favorite glitter, from this overexcited Post .
The polish underneath is W7 Envy , and it is much greener than these pictures let on. It's because the glitter made it blue in the end. The polish is pretty great on its own too and I'll show it to you in my Metallics Top 5....or 10, that I'm working on.

I really am surprised how well these two polishes work together,because if you see them separately,you might assume they're going to clash.
Ah but lovely harmony it is!
Here's the two I used.

So what do you say, do these nails look mermaid enough for you?
I like them quite a lot and I really get a feeling of the deep blue when I look at them.


Hope your Monday is looking great and if you want more blues, here's some ladies who have it
