Add some style to your nails :D
I was going through the nail art options on here and realized that the most popular ones were French manicure, Zebra print and Leopard print. Since i had a french manicure a couple of weeks ago it was between the two animal prints. I tried the zebra one and...well...the title isn't zebra print nails for a reason! It looked horrible, so i tried doing the leopard and it looks pretty good compared to the first one. I only did the thumb and ring finger because i didn't want it to be too much.
BTW Sorry for the blurriness!!!!
