I have seen this tutorial many times on Instagram and I wanted to show you guys my version! How cute would this mani be to wear on a Caribbean vacation? It looks hard but I promise you it is SUPER easy! You will impress everyone! :) You could also just do the ombre portion and leave out the palm trees if you wanted to - but come on, they're so stinkin' cute!
What you need/What I used:
-Any white nail polish, I used alessandro Honeymoon here
hi girls! i absolutely adore this nail art and it was inspired by one of my absolute favorite shows- Pretty Little Liars! It's a border manicure but spiced up with fun polka dots :) Jenna was the one with these nails last season and I hope you guys like my version! I think it looks exactly the same as hers! Let me know if you try this out <3 xo
Romantic? Check. Pretty? Check. Easy? Check! Looks like you spent hours but you didn't? CHECK! This has to be my new favorite hairstyle and I hope it becomes yours too. As you know, NY Fashion Week for Spring/Summer 2013 just passed by and this was by far my favorite hair look out of all the shows! The girls had two dutch french inside out braids with floating crystals placed throughout the braids and the bottom. I knew I had to recreate a DIY for you guys!

WHAT YOU NEED:
Jewels of different sizes - Michaels Craft store or HERE and HERE and HERE Bobby Pins - I used regular size ones for the bigger jewels and mini ones for the smaller jewels - My favorite are in a black tin and they are Sally Beauty Brand (not on website) Hot Glue Gun (and sticks) Black Elastic Hair Ties
It's all explained in the video but here's what my DIY jewel clips looked like:
Very excited about this Demi Lovato X-Factor Audition makeup!! I totally love that show and I'm so happy Demi & Britney are there ... they make it more youthful and just fun! I really was not feelin' that Nicole Shevweejerzinger ... what's her face?! last season :) And of course I secretly love Simon!!! I'm obsessed with the bright peachy-tangerine lip color!

So I'm kind of sort of obsessed with this FUN Paisley nail art ... it looks like a bandana! Hence why I took the photo with one :) I love that it looks like a sticker only without any stickers because those things drive me crazy most of the time! You know I really like a nail art when I leave it on for more than 3 days because that NEVERRR ever happens with me ... so this is most definitely one of my favorites I've done... and trust me, i've done a lot of nail looks over the years! I really hope you all enjoy this and let me know if you try it out .. I would loveloveloveLOVE to see! Video located at the bottom of the post :)
