OPI Atomic Orange & My First Ruffian
This is OPI Atomic Orange. Not a color I will wear on it's own much, but a great orange creme with a perfect formula. No clean up on this one!
This ridiculous color combination was inspired by these shoes that many players wore in this year's World Cup. I used this Toma polish because it is opaque in just one coat, which seems necessary if doing this freehand. It turned out pretty well, but I found this technique kind of difficult.
Thanks for reading!

I like solo orange. It is summer color, looks great on you.

Hey and thanks for the comment!
ReplyDeleteCharlie is a Jack Russel Terrier, but he don't have a pedigree (that is signed by the breed organisation) so I think he more is a Parson Russel Terrier. The difference is that the Parson is more "square" with longer legs, and the Jack is more rectangular with shorter legs.
Both breeds comes in three different hair-types. Short, long and mixed. Charlie has mixed hair, that is long on the body but short on the legs and face.
I think Wally is def. some part, if not all, Jack Russel terrier with long hair, and maybe Shi-Tzu or Tibetan Spaniel because of his teeth?
Funny that he and Charlie has the same colors :) Wally is really cute!
Thanks So much for the information Viktoria! Charlie is adorable too! I love that he gets to go on adventures with you and I love his backpack!
