It’s been at least a few days since I’ve done a Stranger Things manicure, and what better time to bust out the big Barb guns – Queen Barb of the Upside Down, destroyer of fun, patron saint of orange – than for day 21’s theme of a colour in the 31 Day Nail Art Challenge. And orange is completely the colour I associate with Buzzkill Barb – hair, stiff, high-necked plaid blouses, gunk coming out of her mouth when she’s first snatched by the Demogorgon and abducted to the Upside Down (per one of the innumerable pieces I’ve read about Stranger Things, that gunk was a mixture of oil, baby food and marmalade – literally more oranges for poor Barb, who might have lived had she not been the only person in history to nearly cut off her hand trying to shotgun a beer. And also if she had just told her horny loser friends to kiss the very widest part of her mom jeans-covered ass and gone home to cry in her bedroom alone. I vote for the latter, and I think in hindsight Barb probably would, too!)
BARB! You captured tragic Barb’s persona in both words and mani. Very cool. Now I want to watch Stranger Things again.
Hey, you never told me what you thought about your first go-round! Although I suppose if you want to watch it again, it can’t have been that terrible. 🙂

This is hands down one of my favourite manis ever! Esp the denim… and the plaid… and the face… 😮
Aw, thank you – I really liked it, too. Poor Barb and her giant, GIANT glasses. She’s all plastic frames and orange hair, the poor dear.
Haha, it’s so amusing how much you seem to like Barb! I mean, I like her too, but not nearly as much as you seem to! 😀 😀
It’s those GIANT flat-front mom jeans she wears with the brown pointed toe loafers. It’s just the most tragic outfit! You’ve got to give it to the girl for bombing around high school dressed like the librarian.
