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.

Before i removed my nail polish with Nailene
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.

Queens birthday fun!

hey guys! just a quick post about the awesome stuff i got up to this long weekend!

My best friend Alyssa came round for the whole weekend and we got up to some strange shenanigans.



this is what i wore saturday! i'm totally obsessed with my new boohoo overalls and jeffery campbell boots! the only down side was trying on clothes, i had to take off so many layers!

for brunch we went to Passionflower at capitol square where we ordered crepe's and waffles (mmmm waffles) it's by far my favourite place for sweets!


my sister ordered this cute kiwi, apple and lime sorbet drink called the 'green traffic light'


Next we went upstairs to the crane arcade and spent a fortune!!! we won a giant Llama (we named it llama del ray!) 2 pikachu puppets (in one go! mad skills!) And i won a cat phone topper!


we had to cart this around all the stores and Alyssa kept asking people if they had llama clothes or facilities. we were laughing like loons.





i also re painted my nails in tiffany blue french polish for a children's party i went to :)



On monday we went out for more shopping (so broke!) and i decided to grunge it up in this cute home boy tee i bought on saturday and my spotted docs! (woo for crap in the background!) i also got my hair cut on saturday and i think it looks really 'great Gatsby' right now!

we then stopped by Kings comics (among other places) to cry over cute nerdy things we can't afford!



We successfully converted Alyssa into a trekkie!


Gotta love a good cardboard cut out! DELETEEEEEEEE


Crying over the perfection of these cute bat symbol earrings!!!!


so i spent a whole chunk of my weekend shopping! as well as watching Jurassic park and snuggling with my kitten :) what did you get up to this long weekend?

Stay tuned for a shopping post on all the goodies i picked up!

until next time! xx

inspiration: Pretty in Pink

Welcome to a totally useless post about how much I love pink! I felt the need to inspire myself and get in touch with my lovely girly side since I bought tickets to Taylor Swift and i'll be getting a cat for my birthday! So i'm embracing the cute! Enjoy!

Shopping Haul!

sup guysssss?

i was a naughty girl on sunday and went shopping in Bondi with my bff and my sister. i only paid full price for my shoes! i was on a bargain hunting roll! (all cotton on group discounts were courtesy of my friend Alyssa!)

heres my items!


the shoes are kmart knock offs for $12 they also have high tops!


These rad tops are from t-bar! they're usually $40 but they had a 30% off sale and the girl (unknowingly) gave us the 50% off cotton on discount on top so i got them for $12 each!


tumblr made me cave and i got season 1 of supernatural from cash converters for $9! i buy most of my tv shows in bulk from cash converters lol. the nail rock stickers (like i don't have enough already!) are from factorie i think they cost me $5 with the cotton on discount. the chain is from Colette for $7.50 (they also had 50% off selected items) 


ok so i saw these in the supermarket and i had to get them. i really dislike up and go and i needed something i could eat for breakky in a rush or when i'm suffering from anxiety sickness. they are YUM! but contain 27% of your daily sugar intake. so beware health nuts!


and lastly this cutie! this awesome tote is from Typo and is their wap this month so it only cost $10 they also had a super cute one that said 'i like big books and i cannot lie' GENIUS! its so big and roomy and its totes my new work/shcool/everything bag until i wash my backpack lol.

all together i spent around 70ish dollars. good shopping trip if i do say so myself. i'll find time this week and do a review on my recent online purchases! stay tuned!
