Puma Punku - The Door of the Puma

Last weekend I had to go to Ohio State University for a couple of tours of the school. I really enjoyed myself, despite the fact that I'm either a city girl or an island girl, depending on a bunch of factors. Ohio is so different from NYC; I know that that's truly an understatement, even though I was in Columbus, Ohio, the capital and a major city in the state. It was a decent place; I can't really imagine myself living there in the city or anything, but I could see myself going to that school. It was a really new experience for me to even visit a school. I was only there for like two days, so I guess that's the closest I'll get to a real business trip for a while. It was so exhausting! I wanted to do a nail design that showed some skill and spunk, without being too pompous, so I decided to match my nails to the shoes that I was going to wear the day of my tours. These pumas are from last year's spring/summer collection, if I remember properly. I got them for like $8 though haha! I love doing that!

This look was really simple since I only really had to focus on the puma and the type on the two nails on each hand. After applying one coat of NK's Calcium Gel, I used two coats of Sally Hansen Hard As Nails Xtremewear's Twisted Pink. On my pinky, ring, and pointer fingers I used a thin layer of Nail Hardener's Jessica's Wedding Bells to do the rotated diagonal swipes along the centers of the nails. I used Revlon's White on White to do the puma and the type with a very fine brush that I got at an art store. This was all followed with two coats of Sally Hansen Maximum Growth plus Nourishing Nail Color Quick Dry Top Coat.

I hope you all like this design and are inspired to do interesting things with other logos too! Happy college shopping to those students who are spending much of their summer doing just so!
