Black & White

HELLO. Hope everyone has had a lovely start to the year. I went out, got drunk and ate Chinese food at 2am to start the year hahaha. I am always hungry after hours of drinking, I'm hungry full-stop.


So I have notice the "Black and white" fashion trend is becoming big in the nail world. I brought my black and white Ted Baker bag last September and ever since I have deisgn many black and white nails. Black and white is very strong against each other, the designs stands out and is super effective. Here are so of the nails I have done. Enjoy.
This photo is actually from 2012, the first black and white design I did for Melissa Mathews.



This set was base on my clients love for Harry Potter, she had the "sign of the Deathly Hallows" tattoo on her foot so I suggest dong it on her nails. She loved it and I think its pretty cool as a nail design.



 This design was base on glamsusie nail art from Instgram. She is a great nail artist, her designs are feminine and pretty, with lovely floral designs.




 This nail design has a neon yellow and it makes it super cool looking. The nail design below is base on the one above. 



 This cute nail design was redesign by the celebrity nail artist Leah Light.  She did an awesome job, I was so honoured to see another great nail artist re-do my work. Thank you Carrie.C for letting me do this design.


This is by Leah Light.

Xmas & Boxing Day

Hope everyone has had a lovely Christmas and shop like mad Boxing day (As I did).





 These gold nails belong to Emily Fisher, but she should of had these bad boys instead. As Fishee Designs is all about pink and sparkles! but I had it done on my nails (mwahahha).





 
  Love Him and my family.




Me after a few glass of wine. CHEESE.




My baby girl Eva is growing up so fast.


I have fallen in love with the Fossil shop since last year; they have watches and bracelets, yet I'm not a big fan of their bags as I think its a little mature for my taste. I brought a gold watch last year but I thought I want a white one this year and few other bits.



Brought my first pair of GHD's hair straightener, its so cute and there was so many colours to choose from. I am very impress with it; heats up very fast yet not too hot so it doesn't damage my hair but I try not to straightener my hair everyday.



 
Now looking forward to the New Year.

Christmas and Anti-Christmas

Merry Christmas Everyone...

This is my first Christmas blog post. I do love the Christmas spirit, everyone is so lovely and giving. I am always so grateful for the amazing clients I have, they always give me cards and chocolate.




This time of year it is manic and I hardly have time to take pictures of the nails, I did manage to take a few just before the mad rush. Especially this year the nail world is so massive, many high street brand have their own line of nail polishes and we love Barry M cosmetic nail paints. We love it so much we brought all the polishes they had.


Barry M can be brought online, Superdrug stores and Boots in the UK








Here is a mix of different Christmas nails and anti-Christmas nails. I also found Tartan is a big trend in fashion and now on nails.

A Glitter Christmas

Christmas is nearly here! and its going to be hectic. Everyone wants beautiful nails for Christmas and New Years and especially this year I have notice that glitter is the craze. As the nails industry is becoming more mainstream, now there are so many make-up brand  that have their own nail polish line. The most exciting thing is nails is not just about having a nice colour its about the art work on them. Here are my first bunch of xmas nails. 

 

Here are some snowflake nails, they are so pretty.


Kimmy's nails and beauty, where I work has also put up some decoration for Christmas.


 

My pink glitter nails is with MISA nail lacquer and BarryM glitter nail paint.  It is such a cute colour much warmer than all silver.







 The bells and baubles design is inspired by the lovely nails artist Daily Nails (Facebook link)








Most of the snowflakes are stickers which I brought of Ebay.

Fun at Fishee Design

Me and Emily from Fishee Designs had dinner and did a little nail session at her place. I completely fall in love with her house, she has the most random layout but it just all works! 


This is her christmas props for her photo booth and I couldn't help but take some pictures. It was so much fun, I can see why people love photo booths.



Emily has these speaker that is made from a vintage suitcase, OMG thats the coolest speakers I have ever seen. Top right is her painted vintage hand clock. Bottom left is her brick wallpaper which is little different. Bottom right is here bath room comic wallpaper which is wicked because I am obsess with Comics and anime. 


Finally this is a result of her nails, as we had a glass of wine and beer during this session. These are base on christmas however they are pink because Emily loves pink and glitter. I used some snowflake and lace stickers with a Models Own 'Buff pink' base and glitter polish from Barry M 'Jewels Glitter nail paint - Rose Quartz'
