Stay with the pace, every drop that i'm touching, leaves a bittersweet taste...

♫ Neon Truth - Various Cruelties  

Hey my lovelies :)

'Wow, the weather is so nice' ... is what I was saying yesterday. Well unfortunately we're back to damp old England with only an occasional peek of sun through the full grey clouds which covered the rare blue sky.

As on a Wednesday,  Paloma and I have a hour free of lessons, we always like to grab a coffee and get on with some hard core revision.

Today was slightly different as we were practising our 'Head of Sixth Form' speech as we both applied as a duo, typical us!! We'll tell you how it goes :)

Here's a quick post of our outfits, I wore a peplum with cute kahki shoes and Paloma wore a black a-line skirt which is perfect for this unpredictable weather.
 Paloma is wearing - Top -DIY Primark, Skirt - H&M, Boots - Topshop
I am wearing - Peplum - Primark, Belt- Dorothy Perkins, Jeans - MOTO Jamie Topshop, Ballet pumps - New Look

She wants a sweet little antique diamond solitaire, to ensure that she won't forget me

'Diamond Solitare'- The Maccabees
 
 
Hey Everyone!
 
Today is actually feels like autumn or maybe even winter- it has been bucketing down all day and I am so cold, I am sat here with a jumper, scarf and hot cup of coffee! Not being brave enough to go outside, I decided today would be a great day for some nail art (I am normally so impatient waiting for them to dry!)
 
Today- being so rainy-  is the kind of day where the pack of cards come out and the board games too so I decided to attempt some casino themed nails- dice and cards! Heres my little tutorial enjoy! :)
 
 
1) Apply a base coat of white (I used Barry M in matt white)


 
2) Next using a nail pen, paint four red hearts to create a 'four of hearts' card.

 

3) On the other fingers, recreate other cards, I chose Aces (of diamonds and clubs and spades) 


4) The cards are finished! You can mix and match trying to recreate different cards and styles.

 
5) On the other hand, using a black nail pen, apply small dots to recreate those on a dice!

 
6) Your casino- esque nails are finished! :)
 
Lots of Love, Paloma xx
