Nail art designs: Nude & Black

for this nail art I used to colors,
Wet N Wild's private viewing
&
Jordanna's black & Nail Art pop nail polish.

I started by applying my basecoat,
I love jordanna's garlic growth basecoat.

I applied wet n wild's megalast nail color in
Private Viewing. It's my favorite nude color
there is a slight shimmer to it, I noticed the shimmer
after I first tried it and fell in love.

I used ice water to dry them. 

I started using jordanna's black nail polish
and mixed it with their Pop art nail polish.

For the polka dots, I used two different sized dotting tools.
I started with bigger dots at the tip and left some open space
to apply the smaller size dots.

I decided to do the same design on my right hand, and it came out
good, I have to practice on two things, the first is just drawing designs
on my right hand and the second is drawing a good straight line
with my left hand.

Practice means more nail designs which is always fun.

I once again used ice water to dry my nails.
I noticed less streaking with my nail art
after using ice water to dry my nails.

I'm very happy with the way they came out,

I've gotten some compliments on them too..

below, I'm always on the lookout for more nude nail polishes..

thanks for reading...

Nail art designs: Glitter polka dot love

Hello lovelies, today I am going to share some nail designs, I recently did on my nails and I am quite pleased

with the way they came out.

I used Revlon's Temptress for my pinky & index finger, I wanted a sheer
light pink but I didn't have one that I liked, so I went with this one.
&
OPI's Skull and Crossbones for the remaining three.

For the designs the white was a sinful colors nail polish
the name escapes me at the moment but any white nail polish will do.

The glitter was part of the Designer Disney Princess nail polish set
that was released in 2011, I used Cinderella's color.

           

So I used ice water to help dry them dry because I still had some other

stuff to do, I grabbed my pencil case and smeared some of the

polka dots.

I'm really happy with the way they came out. I'm

glad the polka dots got smeared where they did

because it isn't really noticeable.

Hope you enjoyed the design, thanks so much for reading..

til next time lovelies....

DIY Halloween: Spooky Vase

Halloween has always been my favorite time of the year, and I've always wanted to have our house decorated year around with Halloween decorations, now don't get me wrong I love Halloween decorations, but my mom not so much.. So we're re-decorating our bedroom and it's going to be inspired by The Nightmare before Christmas, it's always been mine and my husband's favorite movie.

So for this DIY Spooky Vase
you will need:
 

Vase,
White Artificial flowers,
Small toy spiders
Black Ribbon
Scissors
Hot Glue Gun

Optional:
Spider Webs

Reminder all of the above mentioned materials can be changed
to your liking... =)

 

I started by measuring out how much ribbon I would need for the neck of the vase, and set it aside.

Next I lit a match and frayed the edges of the ribbon, so it wouldn't come apart while working with

it. I took the hot glue gun and put a little dab of it at the end of the ribbon and placed that on the neck of the vase, wrapped it around the neck and placed a second dab of glue on top of the first. I had it overlapping a little bit which is fine, this part is covered by the little purple bat I placed on top.

the ribbon & purple bat added.

I only needed 3 bunches of the flowers, so I set the others aside for another project. I then arranged

the flowers to my liking and set them inside the vase and set that aside.

I grabbed the spider rings and began cutting the ring part off...

 

 

Spidey rings before...

 

Spidey ring after...

 

I cut 5 but I ended up putting 1 more because

there were some open spaces that I wasn't liking.

Now grab that vase again, before you start placing
the spiders on the flowers look at the flowers

and decide where you want them to go...

And after you decide starting putting them on the flowers...

 

 

 

And viola! it's finished... a shot from above

 

I know I mentioned in the video that I wouldn't

be putting in the spider webs, but I thought I'd put

them on there just to see how it looked and I loved it,

so I kept it...

 

I was originally going to use a skull ring and keep it with the two colors, but it didn't turn out well so I went with the purple bat, I love the way the end result came out, this would look really cute for a Halloween centerpiece or if you're like me and you want Halloween year around this is a cute idea, and inexpensive, the flowers were .97 each, the vase was$1.00, ribbon was $1.00 as well, and the pack of spider rings pack was 2.99 at Michael's so all together I spent about $10.00 which was awesome!... Thanks for reading.. link for video will be posted as soon as it's ready... =D

Disneybound at Disneyland : Minnie Mouse

So last year I came across Disneybounding on tumblr, I don't remember
how I came across it but I'm glad I did
What is Disneybounding you might ask ?

Disneybounding is putting an outfit together inspired by your favorite Disney attractions and Characters by using clothing/accessories that you already have or buy from your local retailer. And that work with your budget. Since adults are not allowed to wear costumes at the Resort (with the exception of Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party) you're dressed up but just not in costume.

I am a huge Disney fan and I love the idea of it. I knew I wanted my first disneybound to be Minnie Mouse but I had nothing in my closet to disneybound as her... a couple of weeks before I found out about disneybounding I ordered a shirt with P.Sherman 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney. So I decided to go with Finding Nemo first. I had the shirt and pants just needed shoes and accessories. I found some starfish earrings and ring at payless shoes, both were on sale. Blue shoes at Target which were $9.99 and an orange handbag at DD's Discount for 12.99. And my mom got me a Finding Nemo ribbon to tie to my handbag..

So the first time I Disneybounded Minnie Mouse was at the Monstrous Summer event last June.

 

                               

                                       And the gentleman can also disneybound,
                                     my husband disneybounded as Mickey Mouse
                                   

 

                                           

                            As we walked by Minnie was about to take a pic with another

                            family she walked out and pointed to me and blew me a kiss.

                            Needless to say I had Disney feels...and teared up a bit.

                           

                            So I had the accessories just not the clothes so I had some shopping to do..

                            Red Polka Dot Top: DD's Discount $8.99

                            Black Pants (Canyon River Blues)Sears: $22.99

                            Shoes: Bongo brand, available at kmart, bought at sears

                            on sale for 9.99 using my associate discount I paid 7.99.

So here are the pictures my husband took on Sunday...

I made one change, I bought black skinny jeans

Walmart (Jordache) 17.88

 

In Minnie's Chair

 

Disneyland Resort Minnie has blue eyeliner

so I added some blue eyeshadow.

 

 

          Lovely Day for Tea outside..

 

 

In comparison of the Monstrous Summer Minnie Disneybound to the recent one, I like the more

recent one better. The first one seems incomplete to me, in the second one with my nails and my lipstick it looks more complete. I decided to change my pants because I wasn't liking that the first pair were a bit baggy..

 

I would love to see some of your disneybounds... follow me on tumblr  to share disneybound pics.

Thanks so much for reading.... Til Next Time...
