Blue, Red & White Holiday Dot Mani
When you think of Christmas colors traditionally you think of green, red, white, gold and silver right? But my favorite combo is actually a bit different.
I love a pale, icy blue with red and white. It’s actually one of my favorite color combinations in general, not just for Christmas. But something about it does say the holidays to me.
For this manicure I used Jessica Barely Blueberry for the base (three coats) then China Glaze With Love and Snow for the various sized dots.
Enjoy!
What do you think of this combo for the holidays?

Hmmm, pretty but not for Christmas, more like 4th of July. Maybe a mint green with the red and white dots?
I imagine 4th of July being much more of an intense navy blue. This one reminds me of icy snow.
When I read the headline I thought the colors sounded like 4th of July but when i saw how pale the blue was I thought it was beautiful.
My favorite color in the winter, once there is snow, is blue! I live the way blue looks on a snowy day. This is very very pretty. I gasped when I seen it ¦)
Super cute! Love such simple nail designs!

Wow, your dots look great. I did an Xmas mani with dots, and it’s not going to win any prizes.

Aww I’m sure they look good!
Omg i just love this! Ps i have wrapping paper that looks like this!
This is great! It also totally makes me think of Nena’s 99 Luftballoons and the Threadless shirt it inspired.
This is an unexpected color combo for the holidays, I like it! Nice twist on the typical greens and reds in richer hues
