Dell Venue 7 and My Karva Chauth Henna & Nail Art

Yesterday was Karva Chauth, a festival celebrated by Indian women to pray for the longevity of their husband. They wake up early morning, pray to God and start a 'Nirjal' fast for the whole day - no food and most importantly no water for the whole day. They open their fast after looking at the moon through a sieve. The whole day is spent adorning hands and feet with henna, dressing up and keeping one self busy so that the thirsty dry throat becomes a non-issue.

I was supposed to do a Karva Chauth special nail art yesterday. But I was superly busy applying henna to my hands and was pretty low on energy and hence skipped doing something too intricate for my nails.

But what I did do was use my Dell Venue 7 tablet to click pictures. I know I have raved and ranted about the fact that I don't like the camera on the tablet. But since I was up early it meant I had all the sunlight I wanted to use the camera of the tablet. So I used it for clicking my henna and my final nails. I also edited the pictures on the tablet.

First let me show you my henna (if you follow me on instagram and facebook you must have already seen these)

The back of the hand has same pattern for which I shared a step by step tutorial (HERE) a couple of days back.


I kept my nails simple - easy stamping nail art. I matched the nails with my outfit - pink and gold. I used Rimmel Pro Velvet Rose as base and stamped with Maybelline Color Show Bold Gold. I stamped small flowers on the finger nails and on the thumb I stamped text that reads Love.

If you notice the pictures after editing seem like they have been taken under a flash - but no this is natural lighting.

Overall I have had fun playing and blogging with my Dell Venue 7.
