Let's Do the Time Warp Challenge! Day 2: It's vintage, darling!

Hello all! Today is the Day 2 of the Let's Do the Time Warp Challenge! It's vintage, darling! Today's objective was to create a design based off fashion from the past. I've decided to go with the poodle skirt.

In the 1950s, poodle skirts became popular among teenage girls. I believe they would wear them to the school dances or sock hops.

I took inspiration from the TV show Happy Days. I remember the girls dancing in poodle skirts on a checkerboard floor. The music was always playing at that diner! So for my design, I have a poodle skirt, a white T shirt with scarf, the shoes that some girls wore, the checkerboard floor and a fail attempt at a record.

What I used:

• Thumb:
• Base color: Julep Carrie
• Black stamping polish
• BM 04
• Index and middle finger
• Base color: OPI Alpine Snow
• Peach, black and white acrylic paint
• Ring finger:
• Base color: OPI Alpine Snow
• Black acrylic paint
• Pinky: 
• Base color: Essie Really Red
• Black and white acrylic paint
• Various nail art brushes

Next Monday will be day 3 of the challenge, I remember when...
Wednesday the 19th will be day 4: lights, camera action!

I'm really looking forward to next week's challenges, I already have some ideas in mind. Here is the layout of the challenge again.

See you tomorrow for day 13 of the 31 day challenge!
