So obviously...first off i started on my nail art tutorials and blog. Here are a few tasters of what iv done so far and you will be able to find the tutorials on my blog that coincides with my zine.

Gorgeous Booties

Miista

http://miista.com/ 

I was checking my Twitter when i stumbled across this amazing website called Miista. They make beautiful chunky heels, boots and shoes but the thing that caught my attention was the relationship with Twitter it had. How it works: you tweet the shoe you want to buy and this instantly makes the shoes cheaper for you and others who buy it after you. How amazing?!

Here are a few beauts:

Topshop Allegra Chelsea Boots

Ah i am so in love with these boots too, i think ill wait until my student loan comes in and buy myself a pair as i have been lusting after them since they came out!

Designs over xmas

 

Aztec

This was my attempt at an aztec accent finger and spotty

french tips.

I'm waiting for my nail pens to arrive so this was tried using a 3D nail pen. I don't really like these as you don't have much control over it, bring on the nail pens!

 Half Moon Triangles

I really love half moon designs, if like me you can grow your nails but they aren't that long or perfect, this design elongates your nails. Gold and black is always a winning combination especially at xmas! These half moons were painted freehand and take a few goes but are quite simple. I made the triangles by using masking tape to create a stencil. You have to peel off the stencil quickly otherwise it smudges!

 NYE Nails

This was my chosen design for NYE. I was wearing a black jumpsuit with emerald green strappy shoes and wanted to add a bit of sparkle to my outfit. This was my first freehand attempt at half moons and i was rather impressed with myself! I also used gold stick on foils with a chevron cut into it for my accent nail.

More Designs

Rainbow Crackle

So went to pick up my Barry M black crackle paint and realised it was drying up! Tip; pour a little nail varnish remover in the bottle and shake and this will work for any nail varnish! 

Christmas Clouds

This design was retried from blogger Nailside she does amazing manis and always has pristine nails!

Snowflakes 
 I tested the new nail varnish i bought from New Look, metallic turquoise and i was really impressed with it! Over the top i used a cuticle stick to create snowflakes.
