a touch of sparkle

With the many fashion trends, it's only obvious that they are beauty and nail trends.  I find myself dabbling and playing around with colors and added touches - glitter, reversed manicures, color blocked nails - so I decided to take it a step further and "bling out" my nail, ring finger to be exact!  Solid color nails with a touch of sparkle!

Step 1: Choose a solid color
Step 2: Paint two coats on your nails
Step 3: Add a clear top coat
Step 4: Immediately after applying the top coat to which ever nail you choose to "bling out" - with the help of an orange stick add each sparkle one by one. (Tip: dip orange stick into top coat to pick up and lay on your nail).
Step 5: Once all sparkles have been added apply a layer top coat to keep them in place.

Add some fun to your tips!

spotted things

With my slight obsession with leopard printed anything, it is very easy to get carried away and go overboard with the many different items, but I keep it under control (kind of).  It's fun to add a hint of leopard here and there in my wardrobe, especially unexpected items.  One of several of my guilty pleasures.
