High There Pony (May 13)

High There Pony

 

I love this scruffy type of pony tail at the moment, I don't  use a brush , perhaps a little dry shampoo, I just scrape it all up with my fingers, then only tighten the pony from the top.

 

For more pony tail ideas check out one of my first ever posts for this blog :)

Key to my Heart Summer Dress (May 13)

Key to my heart Summer Dress

 

Ok so its not quite summer here yet, well it was for one day last week, and this is what I wore.

I've had it a few years now, from H&M, and I got super excited when I saw it on  90210 (The year after I got it). But as my friend said its such a "me" dress , and I love it so much I still wear it year and year again :)

Does anyone else have something they do that with ?

Blue Jewelled Night Nails Tutorial

Some girls are big fans of blue nail polishes. So I am doing a simple but very much jewelled blue nail art. This is clubbed with a black colour to give it an awesome night sky look.

What do you see when you look up at the night sky? Obviously lovely stars when the skies are clear. Here we will try to depict some silvery lines of stars by silver stripes and some stones will add to the overall glamour.

You can wear this nail art to any evening party with a black or blue cocktail dress. You will love the attention that you will get. It’s very easy to re-create too.

Things you need for this simple and quick glamorous looking nail art:

·         A base coat

·         A blue polish of your choice

·         A black polish of your choice

·         A silver nail art two way pen (or your striper and silver polish)

·         Cotton bud and polish remover

·         A transparent good quality top coat

·         Nail art flowers - just 2 (one big white flower and one small white flower)

·         Stones (small sized)

·         4 blue stones (large)

Let’s get started:

Step 1:

 Use a nice layer of base coat but this is optional here. Next follow up with two coats of each of black and blue polish like I have used them in a slanting swipe.

Step 2:

Now take your silver two ways nail art pen and use the dotting head to put stripes of silver on the black portion. Note that I am not doing a zebra pattern here. It is just some stripes depicting a silvery night sky.

 

Step 3:

Now apply a nice layer of transparent top coat in a line joining the two colours and then place the small stones and one big blue stone properly. Refer to the picture.

 

Step 4:

Take the transparent polish and apply in dollops on your ring finger. Place the two flowers over it properly. See that they are stuck properly.

Step 5:

Now take your cotton bud dipped in a polish remover and clean up the edges of stray polishes. Next apply a nice layer on all of the nails. Also do not forget to apply a nice layer of transparent polish at the foot of the flowers.

Step 6:

Here is the fun blue night nail art look. Hope you liked it. It’s easy and just need a bit of creativity.

Do try it out soon.
