Many of you know that each week, I join several bloggers on Tuesdays for Twinsie Tuesday posts where we have a nail challenge. Well today is one year since we started doing those posts and our challenge is to recreate our first ever Twinsie Tuesday post.
I started with these wonderful ladies from the very beginning and our first challenge was to share an International polish. I shared Model's Own Aqua Violet, a beautiful blue/purple duochrome from their Beetlejuice collection.
Boy, what a difference from my pictures now!!
So for my anniversary post, I decided to still wear Aqua Violet, but added accent nails using Whimsical Ideas by Pam's Magical Mystery Tour. I wear accent nails at least once a week now, which I didn't do a year ago.
I chose Magical Mystery Tour because it has a purple base and blue glitter, which goes perfectly with the duochrome in Aqua Violet. Magical Mystery Tour applied really well. It's slightly sheer, so I had to use three coats. I also used three coats for Aqua Violet.
My base coat was Orly Nail Defense and I used Seche Vite Fast Dry Top Coat.
Now for more pics ;0).

I loved wearing this mani so much because these two were a beautiful combo!! Can you believe this was the first time I wore Aqua Violet since posting it a year ago? I should really show it some more love!!I can't wait to see my Twinsies' posts today! It'll be fun to see the differences from their first posts! Go check them out!
