China Glaze Emerald Sparkle & Orly Glitz & Glamour Holiday Mani

Today's mani Monday was very loosely inspired by this look I saw on Pinterest. I love how the second color runs down the side of the nail. Isn't it beautiful and so well done... *Sigh* Someday I hope to have skills this good. 

So I thought I would try a look like this in Christmas colors. I used China Glaze Emerald Sparkle as the main color. I am crazy about China Glaze Emerald Sparkle which is the green equivalent of China Glaze Ruby Pumps. It's completely amazing and beautiful! I used Orly Glitz & Glamour (which I am also crazy about) as the stripe down the side. I defiantly made the stripes to thick so it really looks nothing like the picture that inspired me. 

I wore my nails like this for a day and kept feeling like they weren't complete and needed something else. So added the black stripe to separate the two colors and I  really think it finished the look. I liked this mani but for some reason it kept feeling more like Green Bay Packers nail and not so much Christmas nails. 

What do you think are they Football nails or Christmas nails?
