Barry M Nail Paint - Lemon Ice Cream NP307

Hey guys

It probably comes as no surprise to you when I say that I LOVE Barry M nail polishes and yesterday I treated myself to a new colour!  The shade is called Lemon Ice Cream product number NP307 and it is a really handy colour to have, especially if you are into nail art designs.

This is what the nail paint looks like after 3 coats:

Barry M Nail Paint - Lemon Ice Cream NP307

My ONLY criticism of this nail varnish would be that it does require at least 3 coats to be a nice strong colour on your nails.  Other than that, it is great and very summery!

If you were considering purchasing this Barry M nail paint colour then I would definitely recommend you do so.

Hope this was helpful.  If you have any questions at all, please leave them in the comments below and I will get back to you.

Nail Art - Lines / Stripes nail polish

Hey guys

Today, I have tried to create the lines / stripes look on my nails.  I saw this tried and tested on Trying To Be Beautiful 's blogger and thought I would give it a go.

You use the same method as what I explained in my 'Laser Nail Art' blog post, however you just stick the strips of cellotape either vertically or horizontally across your nails to create the desired effect. 

I suppose you could even stick them on a diagonal angle if you fanied something different.

This is how my nails came out:

I used Barry M instant foil effects in Silver, and OPI Pink Friday from the Nicki Minaj Collection.  I think the colours compliment each other really well.

As you can see from the photo, I had a go at both vertical and horizontal stripes / lines and I think both ways look fabulous.

Hope this post has been of help, any questions or comments please please post them below.

DIY Fringe Ripped Vest Top

Hey guys

This is a blog post to tell you how to make your own fringed /ripped long vest top. The inspiration came from a fringed dress that i saw for sale on the Minnies Boutique website that i really liked and i thought "why not give that a go" myself!

I used a long vest top and laid it out as flat as I could.

Starting from one side i began cutting slits approximately 8-10cm long through both the front and the back of the top at the same time.

You must continue this process along the entire bottom edge of the vest top.

Once you have finished that you might wish to cut off the hemmed edge. You should then go along each tassel and give it a little tug to stretch it out a bit.

There you will have it, your very own fringe ripped vest top. From experience, it is best to use a t-shirt material type top, maybe if you would like it to be a vest you could just cut the sleeves off. Otherwise you could cut slits in the sleeves and have those fringed too.

Please feel free to leave comments / questions below and i shall do my best to answer them. Thanks for reading and see you guys soon!
