Nail Art Tutorial: Skittle nails

Hey guys! Today I took full advantage of Priceline's 40% off cosmetics sale by grabbing a whole bunch of fabulous nail polishes! To celebrate I thought i'd do a nail tutorial for Skittle nails, the easiest nail tutorial ever!


YOU WILL NEED:
Nail polish remover (If needed)
5 Rainbow coloured nail polishes
1 White nail art pen (And a steady hand or helpful friend!)


My Favourite nail products! This Nailene nail polish remover pot is a life saver! It's full of acetone and pink bristles. You literally put you finger in, let it soak for a second and then scrub your nail on the bristles. Getting rid of mass amounts of polish has never been easier!

I also use Sally Hansen's Insta Dry, to quicken the drying process (Also great for nail art when you use too much nail polish but need it to dry for the next step) and Sally Hansen Miracle nail hardener as a base coat since I have thin nails.

After i removed my nail polish with Nailene
Next are my colours! I used Essence nail colours, they're super bright and super cheap and decent quality. The nail pen is from Sportsgirl

Next I painted each nail a different colour (2 coats depending on colour and and constancy of the polish) I also had to change blues and ended up using a BYS cracking polish (hence why it looks so horrid!)
Next I drew on some S's with nail pen
Finish with a top coat and you're done!

I'd love to see your Skittle nails! feel free to link me in the comments below.

Until next time x.

Sportsgirl crush!

Hey guys!

So I celebrated getting my tax return last week by going on a bit of a shopping spree. I bought a crap load off Store envy (which i'm impatiently waiting to be shipped!) And bought some great items from Sportsgirl and some cute Kmart finds (video to come!)

I decided that i'd procrastinate doing my assignments for one more day and go out shopping with my sister (Any excuse to wear new threads!) Where we bought my Dad some Lego for fathers day and my sister refused to let me into Windsor Smith because i'd totally buy something! To top off the day I went to see my lady love Chloë Moretz in Kick Ass 2 and it was amaze-balls! All that Supernatural watching has made me immune to all the gushing blood!

The weekend is not complete without a close up face selfie!

Recreate: Boyfriend jeans and street style.

Hey guys!

I'm currently obsessing over 'Boyfriend jeans' and Recently bought myself a pair! so i thought this week i'd kick off my new 'Recreate' posts by having a go at minimalistic street style surrounding the boyfriend jean trend. I'll link all the items i recreate so you can add them to your wardrobe!


Outfit one: I love the simplicity of this outfit, it's great for a day of running about but can easily be dressed up for a night of glam with cute strappy stilettos, small clutch and a statement necklace! Model off duty anyone?

Supré Boyfriend jeans


Outfit two: This has to be my favourite outfit! Stripes are effortlessly chic and can add an instant POW to any boring old outfit! Why not take a leaf out of Taylor Swift's style diary and pair it with a bold red lip? This look is perfect for the casual tourist and just screams French style.

Outfit Three: This is a much tougher look, Paired with a chunky boot and wide brim hat, This look is best suited with Loose, Wavy curls and studded accessories. Bring out your inner Tough chick!

Commando Babe


Hey guys! heres another awesome post from a photo shoot i co-styled recently! (you can see the other one HERE) i Called this look Commando Babe because Tash looks smokin' in this super fun and edgy get up! i feel this look really encompasses grunge street style, with the block word beanie, rib print tank (one of mine!) and the awesome camo vest. the sequin shorts ad some cute texture to the whole ensemble. we then styled it with some desert boots and spiked bracelets to tie in with the gold of the shorts.

i also really love the location of this shoot! i suggested it as i'm a sucker for cool graffiti (and i just happened to work nearby) i love how the blue and green tie in with the look.
