31 Day Challenge - Day 1: Red Nails (Ruffian Manicure)

Hey guys! I haven't been really inspired this days so I thought it was a great moment to start a challenge. I've been wanting to do the 30DC2013 for ages and now that it's summer and I have time I'm giving it a try. I will probably post manis for the challenge whenever I feel to, or when I need some inspiration.

Todays theme, day 1, was red nails and I tried doing a ruffian manicure. It's my first try so don't be hard on me guys! I'm not really happy with how they turned out but it's not bad to be the first time I do it.

I used this two colors, a fantastic dark red from Essence and a wonderful golden from Techinic. They both look cool together right?

I'm really excited with this challenge. I can't wait to reach the end of the challenge with all those cool themes! Have you ever tried this ruffian techinique? Any tips? I will be happy if you shared with me. I'm really excited with the challenge!! Happy polishing!
