I have a really simple mani for you today! It actually uses two of my favorite polishes in my collection, Essie Sand Tropez (I'm nearly through my second bottle of this!) and OPI Goldeneye.  I paired them up the other day on kind of a whim and I'm LOVING the combination. It catches the light in all the right ways and looks just gorgeous.  I'm relocating soon and doing some job hunting so this was a nice, neutral look which was also just a touch flashy!  I hope you enjoy it! :)

Today's Purple Crumpet Fairy challenge was to do animal print nails.  I was a little non-plussed for this one because animal print is not really my thing and also because I've done A LOT of animal print nails.  My favorite ones so far were the striped leopard nails I did awhile back. Mostly because they were animal print, yes, but not your standard leopard or zebra print nail. They were outside of the box.  So for today's challenge, I wanted to go outside the box again with the print!  The cute little guy you see above is a Brazilian Tapir.  They are pig-like (though not related genetically to the pig) animals which live in South America and are considered endangered.  I actually do a lot of work with endangered species organizations (mostly for the African Elephant and the Clouded Leopard) so it was sort of a fun challenge for me because of that!  Anyway...on to the nails!
