Blue Sky Nails Lowry Novels & Stories

“I’m prepared to be the new resident bad girl who leads this sleepy Wyoming town into the temptations of body art.” Macie filled India in her tentative plans for the restaurant while AJ explored the space, which’d been a hair salon in a former life. A couple other eclectic businesses had tried to make a go of it, but none succeeded. “Only half is for tattoos and piercing. We’ll use the front half as a salesroom for the products my sister manufactures.” “What’s she make?” “Natural skin and hair care products made in Weston County. Ever heard of Sky Blue?” “I have,” AJ said. “But you can’t find it here. You have to drive to DeWitt’s Pharmacy in Moorcroft to get it.”

She asked without preamble. Looking at the bob with block coloring Skylar nodded. “What color do you want?” “Do you have blue?” Babs asked excitedly. “I have the Marge Simpson blue that I use for Amelia.” Skylar said, thinking of what was in her personal supplies here. “And I can always lighten it, or I can add a little plum to it to darken it.” “That. Let’s do that.” “Okay, I have three appointments tomorrow-.” “Tonight?” She asked and Skylar motioned to the couple on the couch. “Oh. Ummm…” “Go ahead, Sky.” Tanisha encouraged. “Give me thirty?”

Abby said, looking at Olive as if she was the one getting her nails done. “We were thinking something like this.” Olive pulls out her phone and shows her the picture of the nails that had different looks on the nails. Two of them them was a plain dusty blue, one with a dusty blue french tip, one that has swirls on it with a neutral base which Olive suggested to be champagne and the the last one was a slanted french tip with champagne glitter separating the blue and the neutral colour. “I can definitely do that and I will definitely need to do extensions on these nubs.” Abby said, punctuating her words with smiles.

Right now, I was surrounded by ladies I see in the pack, but do not know them and that I had barely associated with. It was all going to change when I finally become the Lady of the house. The Luna of the Nightwing pack. Fuss was made over my nails of what nail polish color would fit perfectly on it. I let them make the fuss cause I did not care much about it. I just wanted to be linked arm in arm with my groom and tell him ' I do'. They finally decided on a chic blue nail polish coupled with a glitter lacquer polish for design. It did turn out great and my toe nails were given a nude nail polish color after minutes of a nice pedicure.

PIPER “I should’ve gotten a lighter color, “ Sabrina says of the royal blue on her nails and feet. She motions to the bright turquoise I chose. “I like the blue,” I tell her, opening the door to my room and letting us in. “Yeah. It’s nice I guess. I couldn’t make up my mind.”

Inside are so many bottles of nail varnish that I’ve never seen that many outside of a salon before. “How about a neutral or a light blue?” she asks, holding up two bottles. “Let’s go with neutral. Maybe a light pink?” I say, looking at the options in front of me. “Sounds good.” We spend the next couple of hours each having a manicure and pedicure, as well as applying face masks.

It was the most beautiful shade of blue she had ever seen, purer than the sky after rain, purer than blue hydrangeas. "If I had known your eye color was close to sky blue when designing the courtyard for your villa, I should have replaced the deep blue catmint with sky blue hydrangeas or sky blue lobelias. There should have been more sky-blue pebbles on the cobblestone path leading to your stargazing spot," Alicia murmured her thoughts unintentionally.

“Berry, nude or matte blue?” Audrey squinted closer to her computer screen where Jessica was holding three nail polishes and Kathie was shifting in her enormous couch. “Nude.” Since two out of three has had hassles going to places, they resorted to video calls. “Yeah, nude.” Kathie nods, pausing to fluff a throw pillow. “Boring. I think I’ll choose matte blue.” She glances briefly at them, then snort laughed.

I said, into the extra camera beside me. Then they painted our finger and nails. Each of us had different designs according to our dress colors and most of them were decorated by one of the staffs called Lilian. She is amazing at nail art, and I love it. She did a very beautiful art design for each of us. I got beautiful bubblegum pink Rilee got beautiful cream color design Skylar got beautiful purple and lavender design Ariana got beautiful creamish pink and white, with glitter. After getting our nails done, we were asked to change into our clothes.

It was a pink one and it had a uniform patch sewn on crookedly. I had been the one to do that. The weird arts and craft stuff. She told me she loved it. My fingers tightened around it. If I closed my eyes hard enough and just concentrated on nothing but it, I could still smell that bubblegum and hospital-grade detergent. *** We had painted our nails blue just three nights ago. It was the most ridiculous of the blues, and it was so glittery. Alicia had insisted on that color, and I couldn't do anything but oblige. It was very nice.
