Hello there lovely readers!
Yesterday was a beaut of a day &
twas spent doing one of my most favourite things...afternoon tea! I
whisked my bestie off to The Royal Berkshire Hotel in Ascot as a
little birthday treat for her & enjoyed a delightful afternoon of
tea drinking, cake eating, wildlife watching in the beautiful grounds
of the hotel & all round relaxing by the glorious fireplace.
Bliss.
Later on whilst browsing in town we
sought refuge in Miss Selfridge from that insane rainstorm that
occurred & I ended up leaving with yet another cheeky dress
purchase...darn you weather! *shakes fist at sky* Though the dress
WAS on sale & mighty puuurdy ;)
Today's nail art I have to share with
you lovelies is a quirky one & inspired by a design I'd seen from
the awesome WAH nails. I follow WAH on Instagram & just love
their amaze designs & its my wish to one day get my nails done
from one of the fab WAH gals in London! Whilst browsing through
Instagram the other day I saw this ace Eye design & just
had to give it a try!
Haha what do you think? 'Eye' catching with a bit of sparkle & slight Egyptian vibe going on? ;) I altered the design a wee bit & did the eye design on opposite ends of the nails to mix it up a tad & gave my eyes super thick mascara coated lashes fit for batting ;)
For my base I used the polish that
holds position as my number 1 favourite polish & one of the
few polishes I own that's EVER been repurchased...Models Own Pink
Fizz. Its one of the prettiest glitters ever, I adore the pale pink
shade & the formula is great & fabulously opaque! Just two
coats & the entire nail is covered with beautiful pink sparkle.
Love!
To do the eyes I used some spare french
manicure guides that I had lying around & helped create the
curved edge. Placing the mani guides where needed, I simply filled in
the space with white polish, removing the guides whilst the polish
was still wet.
Using Barry M's Nail Art pen in Black I
outlined the edge of the eyes before drawing on the thick lashes,
about four to each eye.
Finally for the pupils I just added a
large black dot of black polish using my dotting tool, finishing off
the design with a smaller white dot inside the black pupil.
Lotsa love to ya!
