NOTW: BLUE & ORANGE SUMMER LEOPARD

WAH Inspired Summer Leopard Print
Blue - Models Own (BlooBoo) . Black - Nail Art Pen . Orange - Avon (Coral Beat) 

So if you follow me on twitter you might of noticed me dropping the odd tweet about 'nail art' the last couple of days. These bad boys were a result spending a fair bit of time on fuckyeahnailart. I think of my self as quite a "creative" person but when it comes to nail illustration I am not innovative at all. If any of you suffer with the same boring condition then this site is a true inspiration! After seeing a set of nails similar to these on mentioned tumblr, I just had to try and recreate them! I traced them back to the WAH Nails tumblr; again another amazing site but you really wouldn't expect any less from the legends themselves! 

The two colours used are probably my favourite nail varnishes at the moment. I get so many compliments when I wear the Models Own blue, it's just so eye catching. The coral is actually my mums, I always forget about trusty old Avon for cosmetics but this shade is converting me slightly! Together I think they just scream summer! So this post is in tribute of yesterdays summer solstice; first day of summer, bring on the sun! I actually really enjoyed painting my nails a bit more exciting than usual so have decided to try out a 'Nail Of The Week' feature! I don't know if I'll keep this up but it's worth trying aye! Last night I went to the cinema to see 'Bad Teacher' with the boyf'. Cameron Diaz is a total babe, had to be said! Was going to do an outfit post but ended up wearing a pretty simple outfit; wedges, skinnies, shirt, leather jacket & feathered earrings, it's basically my everyday uniform! Think I need to start mixing up my wardrobe, but with no money is that possible?! Think I'll have to stick to the DIY manicures...
