Ombre Nails DIY!

Ombre as a trend seems to be extremely popular at the moment, so I thought why not try creating that effect on my nails. The images show my step by step process. The nail varnishes used are from various places. The Herman and 2 Clazona nail varnishes are from Dubai. The Glittery silver nail polish is from HnM and is by far the best glittery nail polish I have ever used. To get this effect you will also need a small piece of sponge.

Apply the blue nail polish first 2 coats. Ignore the horrific nail painting. I like to cover all of my nails thus at times this means I paint on my fingers. This mess can easily be cleaned off afterwards. 

You then need a sponge and you need to paint one corner of the sponge. Paint the sponge with the second color you want to create your ombre effect with. Then dap the painted sponge on the end of your nails. Don't worry too much about being neat at this point, creating more of a rough spray painted effect would be ideal. 

Above is what your nails should look like at this point. Afterwards apply one coat of blue glitter nail polish. This adds  shine to the nails with a sparkly effect.
NOTE! Never move on to the next stage until the previous nail varnish on your nails has dried. 

Finally finish off with the sliver glitter nail polish. You can put on one or two coats of this. I only put one on because the glitter in the nail varnish is quite thick and thus would end up covering the ombre effect.Neaten up and take off the excess nail varnish off your fingers and TAAAAAAA DAAAAA!!!! All good to go!!!!!

I am in love with this Longchamp at the moment, I use this bag everyday! It is just big enough to fit everything in it. I bought this one from the Duty Free at Manchester Airport, it was the last piece left and is a limited edition piece, Lucky me! I would highly recommend a Longchamp for all you girls out there that always just need that extra bit of room in your handbags. 

GOLD is my thing!

I guess this picture says it all! Yes I do love gold jewellery whether its real or fake I'm allllll over it!! 

Left hand: Long ring Riverisland £2.00 in sale, 

Circular disc shaped rings are actually dials from my mums old watch which she was about to get rid of so made perfect sense to make them into rings, as you do! 

Right Hand: Real gold bracelet custom made from Dubai handed over to moi by my mum! 

Middle finger ring a present from my sister. 

I think that's enough gold for today but I'm sure you'll be seeing a lot of gold in my future posts whether it be clothes or jewellery! 

I'm going Numb

So for the past week it has been snowing on and off in parts of the UK. Which meant I finally got to wear my knitted leggings which I love! Their pretty comfy however like most knitwear fabrics they stretch and don't hold their shape for very long.
The shoes are my favorite at the moment as seen in my last post they go with everything and didn't seem to get damaged by the snow. Which surprised me a bonus their not painful at all!
