Old school Donkey Kong

Last week it was my awesome boyfriend's birthday and since he was once 8th in the world for his score in Donkey Kong on those old school 80's arcade machines (yes, we are both super geeks), I made this awesome mani in honour of him. *Awwww so sweet*. 

This isn't exactly my best work because I did it pretty fast and freehanded it (sorry boyfriend) and I took it off rather quickly because the black was staining my nails and cuticles (sorry again boyfriend). Hopefully there are some arcade geeks out there who are also nail freaks. Together we will rule the world.

Inspiration for the mani for those of you who aren't familiar with ghetto arcade games (omg, it's not Candy Crush?!):

  1. This nails have really old school style ! I think that students who are young people must do only fashionable nails! Also I want to recommend the site uk.papersowl.com that is the best article writing service that can help people who are studyning now with writing some papers that they need to write for an educational institution in which they are studying!

  2. I agree with you that these nails are old-fashioned. But the work of the manicure master shows professionalism that writers who work for service, which you advertise, do not have unlike professional writers, who work for the best discussion essay writing service https://orderessay.net/discussion-essay.html that provides quality services at adequate prices that are not too low and not too high.

  3. You showed a great version of manicure, but the teachers did not approve of such a manicure in my school days. No matter how busy high school students are, the care about their own appearance excites them no less than performance indicators. Sometimes high school students spend time not writing an essay, but going to a beauty salon, and then they don’t know how to avoid bad grades, and buy an essay from Buypapercheap the cheap essay writing service, which offers not only the best essays, but also the cheapest essays. There is no, and there cannot be trifles in creating an attractive image, therefore, care for the beauty of nails is an important component.
    Having decided to do a manicure, many schoolgirls are faced with the problem: how to simultaneously comply with school rules prescribing a modest appearance and fashion trends. However, there are many options that can be a great choice to meet the requirements of both parties.
    One of the main rules that a manicure for a school should comply with, regardless of choice, is grooming and accuracy. The nails should be of the same length and shape, best rounded. If one of the marigolds is broken, the rest must be cut to the same level. The cuticle and the skin around the nail plate also require care - barbs and other imperfections are unlikely to add attractiveness.
    French manicure and variations on its theme is perhaps one of the best options for the school, because the hallmark of the French jacket is precisely its versatility. A gentle, feminine and romantic jacket will perfectly combine with a school uniform, if it is provided for in an educational institution, and with a fashionable outfit after class.
