Nails of the day - Juicy Blue

I decided to go for a combo of my favourite Models Own shades and created a gorgeous subtle sparkly finish. I layered Beth's Blue under the Classic Juicy Jules and this was the outcome.

Nails of the day - lather, rinse, repeat

I'm starting to worry a bit about my obsession for animal prints. Whether it's in my clothes, my accessories or my nails I can't seem to get enough of it. Last night I decided to give my nails a new twist with some bright  pink leopard print. Inspired by the lovely Gem Fatale this is actually the first time I've managed a successful leopard print, my other attempts usually end badly!

The neon pink nail polish is by Misa, I picked it up after a manicure in my local salon way back last year and, I'm not gonna lie, I think the main reason for the purchase was the amazing name "lather, rinse, repeat" I love it! I can't actually find anywhere to buy it online in the UK, but try your local salon or good old eBay of course! The leopard print was achieved with the Model's Own Wah Nails nail art pen. 

 

Now that I can finally do it, I think leopard print might be my new go-to nail art style!

Nails of the day - leopard lovelies

Yay it's the weekend! Have you all got lots planned? I've got a busy one with a couple of parties to go to (including our own house-warming, wooop!) so I decided it was time for some new nails...

I've had these Nails Rock nail wraps in my house for months since I got them in a Glossybox. I have a bit of a thing for leopard print so I was really pleased that was the design I received. I've been meaning to use them for ages but I just keep forgetting about them, so I decided now was as good a time as any to try nail wraps for the first time.They were really simple to use although I only applied them last night so time will tell how long they last.

I decided to just use the wraps on my ring fingers as a highlight and use Models Own in nude beige on the rest of my fingers. I think they look really effective together and the beauty is that I now have loads of wraps left over for more nail fun, yay! What do you think? Have you used nail wraps before?

Nails of the day - sex kitten

Sorry for the misleading blog post name...but how much do I love Leighton Denny nail polish in Sex Kitten? As so often happens, I think the name of the colour is doing it for me more than the polish itself but hey, it's still a pretty gorgeous colour. An almost metallic, pearlised silvery blue, it totally changes depending on the light. So as you can imagine, it was a joy to try and take a picture of it...

Anyway, when I first pulled the polish out of my overflowing nail polish drawer I did have a different nail art idea in mind. But once I'd applied two coats I changed my mind and decided to go for some easy polka dots instead. The other design can wait for now.

I used my Models Own, Wah nail art pen for the polka dots. This pen is like the best present I've ever had, thanks to my gorgeous BFF Fiona! I noticed that Models Own have released 3 more colours in the pens this week, I'm waiting for payday so I can buy all 3...I couldn't pick between them all!

Topped off the pretty polka dots with good old Nails Inc caviar top coat.

What do you think? An easy bit of midweek nail art for while the boy watches footy...story of my life!!
