Classic leopard


Taken with my new Canon 600D haha! Love how clear it is, well at the same time I hate it coz now you can all see how bad my skin is around my fingers... dry skin galore lol! I cannot stop biting my nails lately either!

The other day I was stuck for what to do with my nails, and then I realised that I haven't had the classic leopard mani in months so obviously that's what I did. All colours used are Models Own: snow white, sterling silver, 18 carat gold and bronze rage! Black nail art pen is off Ebay! 

I've just bought the Topshop nail art pens in black and white and I'm so exited to try them out properly, I think more intricate designs will be attempted as its literally like using a felt pen! I'll show you what I come up with when I try them :) 

This week has been so draining so far.. uni is back up and running and after having nearly 2 months off makes it all the more harder to get back into the swing of things.. I seriously cannot wait to graduate and get this shit over and done with!

Pow, Leopard, Cake, Spot and Anchor

Hey guys

First of all.. A big massive thank you to everyone who commented on my last post... you were all a great help in finding my birthday dress.. I'm gonna go 'real life' shopping tomorrow for a final look around I shall keep you all updated!

My nails last week were a random mix of things. I wanted lots of patterns and summery colours in hope it would inspire the weather.

Sorry the pic is a little dark, had to turn the flash off as it was reflecting off my nails
All the nail art was done with nail art pens from Ebay. 

Thumb:  Models Own Lilac Dream. You can't see it very well; it's comic book theme inspired. I've seen a few images of these 'POW' nails and wanted to try it myself :) 

Pointing Finger:  Models Own Fuzzy Peach. Classic leopard print... so easy and so effective! 

Middle Finger: Models Own Lemon Meringue. A cupcake: Didn't turn out as good as I expected, think I needed a darker 'background' colour so the cake would stand out better! 

Ring Finger: Barry M pink Flamingo. I Love this... So simple, yet so pretty. Cannot wait to do this with a Black background and white spots. I think it would look awesome! 

Little Finger: Models Own Top Turquoise. I love this little anchor. It was easier to do than expected so I was rather chuffed with that. I've been inspired to do nautical themed nails now with anchors and stripes and lots of nautical related things.

I've made a little 'nail art to do' list in my filofax.. Top of the list is galaxy nails but before I can do that I need my Models Own order to arrive; which is taking FOREVER! I haven't even painted my nails this week as I didn't wanna spend time painting them only to take it off and try out the new polishes when my order arrived... so I've had horrid boring nails for a whole week now! How long should I wait before I connact them? It's been 8 days since I ordered and they have confirmed my order but I haven't had a dispatch confirmation? I'm so freaking impatient! 

Lots of Love
