Newest nail obsession

After my last post, I got a few questions about this mani:

Revlon Colorstay's Passionate Pink, 
silver nail striping tape & Sally Hansen's nail art pen in white

How did I get those stripes on my nails? 

I know, I'd be asking the same thing cause they're so freakin' pretty. 

I wish I could take credit for finding these little gems... but I can't. I first saw them on Franziska (who by the way, always has the prettiest nails - see for yourself here) and fell in love. So obviously, I ordered them right away. 

I got 10 different colours of nail tape for under $2. Sweet deal, right?

The nail strips are pretty thin but overall, I've found them pretty easy to apply (...the only problem is trying to decide what colour to use!).  Just stick 'em where you want them and cut them to the length you need. Might take a bit of time and patience but next thing you know, you'll have a super cute mani that looks something like this:

Essie's Tour de France & gold nail striping tape

If you love them as much as me, then go ahead and order some! You can find them on EBay here or at Born Pretty here. I ordered them off EBay in December and received them a week ago - so expect to wait about 4 weeks before you get them!
