Multicoloured leopard print!

Haven't done my nails in quite a while as I was working in a restaurant over Christmas and wasn't allowed to wear nail varnish, but hurrah, I can now go back to having pretty nails!
So I decided I fancied failsafe leopard print, but instead of neutraly colours, I added some colour to it, and it looks super cute!


The colours are Cyan Blue by Barry M and Silver Foil, also by Barry M.
Still haven't got round to getting dotting tools but I just used a bobby pin and it worked pretty much the same.
Need to do my right hand now and I can't be bothered. Knowing me I'll just forget to do it and wander about with one done hand. Oops.

Nail art with tape!

I've been seeing a few of these cool manis online but didn't think I could do it as I don't have special nail tape.
TURNS OUT, you don't need special nail tape, sellotape works fine, so I used just that.
It's a bit finicky because you have to cut the tape up and try and get them roughly the same width, and when the tape is that thin it gets stuck to stuff and you can't find it. And the worst thing was when the sellotape took off part of the silver base, so I had to use a blunt toothpick to fill it back in, so it looks a bit messy.
All in all though, I love it, looks so simple and pretty, I also decided to just put glitter on the ring finger to break it up a bit.



The colours I used were Barry M Nail Effects in Silver Foil, Barry M Indigo and for the sparkle it's OPI's Servin' Up Sparkle.
Also I don't know why the picture isn't upright the way I took it... weird.

My favourite marble nails!

This was the third time I'd had a crack at marble nails and they just turned out so awesome. Thought I'd go for a blue theme as I have an assortment, but then the silver jumped out at me and thought that'd make it sweet.



The colours are all Barry M. Foil Effects Silver, Indigo, Cobalt Blue and Cyan.
