NOTW: Orange Phail Nails

LA Girl Disco Brites in Dance Craze and Disco Ball, Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear in Fuchsia Power

I wanted to pattern a white netting over LA Girl's Disco Brites in Dance Craze, a vibrant coral orange colour,  but when I finished I thought it looked kinda yucky. So, I decided to add a pink modified french arrow tip. However, clumsy me messed up the index finger so I had to quickly salvage an hour's effort by painting different random designs on each finger. Only the ring finger has the original arrow french tip. Please ignore the icky cuticles the weather has been horribly dry.

Although it was a fail, I think it didn't turn out TOO bad and I'm really digging the shine of Revlon's Quick Dry Topcoat. I think I might be loving it more than Seche :O and it's big three free! So that's a further plus point.  On that note, what are everyone's favorite base coat and top coat? Let me know! I would love to try out some new suggestions!
