Graphic triangle nail art - swatches

The theme for today's Nail Art Sunday is "Converse" and I bet you are wondering why on earth I'm showing you a black and white graphic triangle nail art! ;) But let me tell you why! :)
In 2012 Converse did a collaboration collection together with Marimekko. This nail art is inspired by one of the shoe patterns from this collection. If you scroll down you can see a picture of my source of inspiration.

I love Marimekko's patterns and I like Converse so for me this was a great combination! I have already done the "classic" Converse nail art (see it here) so I wanted to do something else and I've also been wanting to try out this triangle striping technique.

For those of you who want to try this mani I'll do a tutorial later. The most tricky part for me was how to place the stripes to get the same sizes of all the triangles. But for now - enjoy! :)


How do you like this nail art?
Please let me know if you are interested in a tutorial.

    Så häftigt! Hade glömt bort att de hade samarbetat med Marimekko.

      Tack!! Jag älskar Marimekko så för mig var valet inte svårt :)
      Det gällde bara hitta vilken sko som gick att få över på nageln.

    Wow, vilket arbete du lagt ned! Gör en tutorial också, spännande att se ju. Funderade också ett tag på att använda något mönster som du men så blev det inte till slut, jag hade ju inte gjort converse tidigare så ville testa det med.

    Hi cupcake, I hope by now you come to the end of your 18 hours shift - poverina!!! Your converse mani is a stunner, you are such an artist. I look forward to your tutorial just like Nati - mind you I would be glad to get just ONE accent nail half as good as yours ;-). And as Nati I find your Inspiration so special!!! Küsschen

    Vilken läcker nailart och kul tolkning av temat:) Den är ju lika bokstavlig som många av oss andra, bara att det är en annan modell.
