DIY Foil Nails

Seen a lot of silver/mirrored nails floating around the Tumblr-sphere lately, and seeing as my inner minimalist has been begging to break out, I decided to give the metallic nail trend a try! It's actually super easy but looks ace!

All you need to do is paint a base colour on your nails, then grab a piece of foil (unscrumpled!) and cut it into thin strips and then place it on your nails with a toothpick whilst they're still wet. Go over with a few coats of clear and you're done! I think they look pretty awesome if I say so myself.. haha
You can do it with any colour and even experiment with different colour foil! Another idea would be to use a hole-punch to cut out circles from the foil and stick them on instead!

Have fun! x

DIY Ideas!

I love the internet. Y'know why? COS IT'S CHOCKED FULL OF YUMMY INSPIRATION AND AWESOME PICTURES OF CLOTHES AND SHOES AND DELICIOUS THINGS THAT ARE JUST BEGGING TO BE DIY'ED!

1. Side-Split skirt, I wanna do a TON of these this year.
2.Pencil skirts! Perfect for January and February when it's cold! :)
3.Hello! See-through skirt! I think these look really nice when they're long and flowy and paired with something classy :)
4.OMG SHINY THINGS. These heels are sooooo prretttttyyyyyyy :3 recently, I've become a magpie of sorts, becoming attracted to anything that glitters or shines! So easy to DIY aswell! Just buy some cheapo heels from like Primark, and get small mirrored circles or silver sequins off Amazon and glue em on! I might have to do this one, purely for the gorgeousness of them :)
