90's Smileys

 1. Apply 2 coats of white nail polish
2. Using a yellow nail art pen apply large yellow spots randomly over the nail
3. Use a black nail art pen to outline your smiley faces and add the details. Let dry & topcoat.

heyaaa, back with another nail art tutorial!! I am in love with this, it was inspired by a kimono I saw on The Style Playlist. This is relatively straight forward, The most annoying part of this is the white base I guess - as I always find white takes quite a while to be completely dry and can apply quite streaky. I'm really happy with the end result though!! Hope you're all enjoying the last bank holiday weekend of 2013 :)  What do you think ? Will you be trying this out?

 Dog T-shirt Dress - £10 RiverIsland
Cheetah Print Shirt - £17 M&S
Neon Spike Drop Necklace - £3 NewLook
Gold Love Hoops - £4.99 NewLook
Arizona Eagles Sweater - £40 Riverisland
 
Here is my latest haul, Bought a jumper hehehe I'm getting myself prepared for the cold months, the Riverisland jumper you will know from my august wishlist, I really really wanted. I actually picked it up later that day whilst I was at Lakeside. I absolutely love it! The t-shirt & shirt my mumma got me whilst she shopping the sales, the shirt is so similar to one Zara did last A/W - I'll definitely get alot of wear out of it!! The New Look neon spike necklace was a bargain reduced from £9.99 , I dont really like necklaces too dangly and long but this one is actually ok as the chain is pretty short so it still qualifies as a short statement necklace in my book! The gold hoops...well probably the ultimate piece of tack but I loveeee them!! Have you bought anything similar recently?

1. First I used my Urban Decay Eye Primer, and Foxy from the Naked Basics pallet, to give me a good, clean base to work with. 

2. Using a flat eye-shadow brush I applied my MUA eye-shadow in Shade 24 all over my lid, taking it slightly above my crease, to have something to blend the darker shades in with. 

3. I like to create a winged look with my eye-shadow, which is why I took a thin eye-shadow brush (you could also use an eyeliner brush) to draw on where I would like my eye-shadow to end. The colour I used for this is MAC's Sketch. 

4. This picture shows how I've blended in Sketch with Shade 24, right down to my inner corners. I do this using small circular motions with a blending brush, I also like to blend slightly around the eye and gently along the original line I created to soften it a little. Once I had done this I wasn't quite happy with the shade, and so used a little of Crave from the Naked Basics pallet to blend around the edges a tiny bit. 

5. To finish off the look, I first added a small line of Crave on the outer corners of my eye, then blended that with Sketch to around the middle of my water line. After this I took Shade 24 and blended that almost right to my inner corners, completing the look by adding a little of Venus from the Naked Basics onto my inner corners. I always put concealer under my eyes for good measure at the end of every eye-shadow look!

Multi Leopard

 1. Apply 1 or 2 coats of a light beige nude nail polish.
2. Using a fairly dry brush dot a mink colour nail polish allover the nail.
3. Randomly add Orange patches over the nail.
4. Add your yellow nail polish, again randomly over the nail.
5. Dot on a few patches of turquoise nail polish.
6. Using a dark burgundy nail polish draw on an abstract leopard print over the top. Let dry & topcoat.
This nail art is inspired by another Topshop item, this top HERE which also comes with matching pants witwoo twosie!! I love how the print is so abstract but its still clear its leopard. This one is ridiculously easy, you couldnt go wrong! Takes about ten minutes and Im really happy with the results. What do you think of this ? Will you be trying it out?
