Adopt a Shelter Dog Month Mani

Happy Monday! Some of the lovely ladies in the Beauty Blog Coalition have teamed up in support of animals everywhere. I recently learned that October is Adopt a Shelter Dog month. If you follow my blog you know that my dog is like my baby to me and I am a big animal lover.

Although my dog wasn't from a Shelter, a lot of my friends and family have rescued dogs and I would love to be able to do the same in the future. (My dog prefers to be the only dog in our household so I don't want to bring in another dog and have it be terrible for either of them); I do however, support local animal shelters when I can.

Here is a picture of my dog, Molly:

And here is my mani in support of Adopt a Shelter Dog Month:

Polishes Used:
-OPI - My Vampire is Buff
-Konad - Red
-American Apparel - Raccoon
-Bundle Monster Plate - BM306
-Bundle Monster Plate - BM323

For this look I decided to do something really simple. I think it's cute but isn't overwhelming (sometimes I think I have a tendency to keep adding things to a look instead of letting simple by pretty too) I was glad that I had stamping plates with animal themes because it was perfect for this look.
