NOTD...

Tuesday, 10 August 2010

This is my first NOTD, for a good reason. I'm not exactly talented in the old nail art department, my nails more than often end up in a gluey, glittery mess whenever I attempt anything more complicated that a straight foward one nail colour, but today I was feeling particulary creative, and sprung up with this little frenchie....

I used...

(Sally Hansen Natural White, Boots French Pink, Barry M Topcoat)
+ some little heart nail gems

I went for the classic manicure, plus a little twist with the tiny heart, and I'm actually really pleased with the result!

Some would say the gems a little 'chavtastic', but hey, what girl doesn't adore a bitta' bling?

So what do you think of gems stuck on nails?  Trashy or classy?

  1. They look super cute! I think gems look okay as long as they aren't too in your face "bling bling" (Wow I haven't used that word in ages!) haha
    XOXO
