Nails ~ Ombre Using Julie G Nail Polish

I'm not really a nail person and I'm just as happy paying to have them manicured every 2wks by the professionals. I also enjoy looking at all the nail designs and even making nail collages, but when it comes to sitting down and painting my nails, i'm just not good at it.  I saw this ombre design and it looked pretty simple and I thought why not, it looks like something I could try and not mess up.

I have tons of nail polishes and I try to keep up with the latest colors. I used to take my polishes to the nail salon and let them polish my nails because it always comes out so neat.  But once I forgot to grab my bottle before I left and when I went back, they would't give it to me because a few days had passed and they didn't believe I left it.  Ever since then, I never take any polishes that cost over $5, I only take drug store polishes or I use their instead.
