long live couture

hey my lil' cherry blossoms :)

What do I have for you today? A 2fer...one post two topics :) I'm goin' wild, I know haha.

Anywhoooo....first I'll start off with my favourite scent. I've been wearing this for over a year now, and I keep going back to it.  Viva La Juicy..mmmmm....works so well with my body scent, and people become close talkers when I wear it...they just can't get enough hahaha.

The fragrance is fresh and sweet without being flowery, more berry sweet.

I would say it has just enough sweetness, making it playful and cheeky.

Viva La Juicy has top notes of wild berries and juicy mandarin gently tempered with honeysuckle, gardenia, and jasmine.

Underlying it all are warm tones of amber, caramel, vanilla, sandalwood, and praline.

Okay enough about how i smell :)

On to my nails.

Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear "white on", Revlon "silver", NYX "ice glitter"

Start off with your favorite base coat.  Let dry.  You'll need a white and silver polish.  Place a few blobs of both colors on a palette because you'll be needing to work with both at the same time.

Using a toothpick or a dotting tool, place blobs of polish on the tip of the nail in a row as to cover the tip.  First place white, then silver, then white, and silver again.

Then using a toothpick drag the colors together upwards in swirling effects. 

It will look like waves.

Let dry. Place a sparkly silver polish over the swirls, make sure the majority of the sparkles are on the swirls and then just a few sparkles on the clear part of the nail...you want to make a gradient effect.

This look is nice for a night out...or for a lil' somethin' somethin' special.
