Eye can see you!


I woke up this morning and was ruddy startled to find pairs of eyes looking right at me, 10 of them to be exact.  No, I haven't suddenly become barmy overnight, (keep your thoughts to yourself people) but I actually had a go of recreating the Giles 'Eek Nails' after watching Megan's quick tutorial, here.  

I used:
Chanel Particuliere
Barry M White
Rimmel London Black
Bobby Pin (for the eyes)
Top Coat

It was a pretty simple look to do and I found it fairly easy.  Mine aren't perfect like the ones pictured above and I've made my eyes slightly bigger (thanks to a lack of nail art pens in my collection) but I think they look pretty cute even so.  I feel they all look rather mischievous and that they all need names (okay, maybe I went a little barmy overnight and decided to personify my nails...)

This is going to be one of my go to designs for the new season, to go along with the print trend.  What do you think?

Brit revealing?

The Brit awards may be a huge annual music even, but they certainly caused a stir in the fashion world.  The girls were out in force last night, Cheryl donned a leggy Stella McCartney number whilst Rihanna changed four times, including both costume changes and Jessie J just about covered her body in Vivienne Westwood.  

Cheryl in Stella.


Rihanna began a performance in Giles, which I loved, it reminded me of a Mert & Marcus photograph.  She then went on to strip down to a sequinned body suit, which to me felt like a big F U to Radio 1 for banning her new single, S&M.  

Riri wearing Giles.


Jessie J wasn't the only girl sporting Viv.  Katherine Jenkins and Paloma Faith also wore dresses designed by Westwood, who designed this years Brit trophy. 



Did you guys catch the awards? What did you think of the frocks?

I apologise for the lack of blogging today, I've been a busy bee.  I had my Weekly Wrinkle internship trial today, which was originally yesterday but we had to reschedule.  It went extremely well and I'm feeling good about it, I was pretty much told I got the internship, but still you never know!  Keep your fingers and toes crossed for me lovelies!
