New In: BornPrettyStore Haul ❤

In my recent post about BornPrettyStore, I mentioned that I had already placed an order a couple of weeks ago. Yesterday I received my little package and I couldn't wait to show you guys what I got. 
For the ones that (already) follow me on instagram, you've probably seen this very adorable Christmas tree iphone 4s case.
I've also bought these cute little nail art stickers: golden zippers, hearts and crowns. I didn't try any of them yet, cause my nails are in desperate need of a touch up. So the next time I'll go the nail salon which is hopefully next week, I'll ask the lady to add one of these. 
And the last thing I bought, were these cute black and red temporary tattoos. I really like the idea of having a tattoo. But because I'm not sure where and what I want yet, I just like to play around with the fake ones first. It's a great way to kinda get used to them and see if I really really want a permanent one. 

These were my BornPrettyStore goodies for now. Last week I ordered these really cool hair extensions just for fun and I can't wait to see how they would look on me. I'll definitely show you guys once I tried it on. To visit the online store, you can click on the banner somewhere in the right sidebar.

My Galaxy Nails ❤

So all of you have probably already seen the Galaxy nail art a million times on youtube and other blogs, but I wanted to try it out for myself. I started off by checking out a few youtube tutorials, but then noticed ALL of them were so different from eachother. So I decided to go off and let my own creativity kick in. The colors I used are black, purple, grey, red, dark blue, white, and colored glitter. Kitchen sponges were the only suitable sponges I had. 
I used all the nail polishes in this exact same order 
From left to right: elf nail polish: Black || MNY Maybelline New York: 661 || Outdoor Girl: Shining Star 146 || Catrice Cosmetics: 550 Marilyn & Me || Catrice Cosmetics: 430 Purplelized || Catrice Cosmetics: 280 Forget-Me-Not! || Essence Nail Art Twins Colour Base: 02 Romeo || Essence Nail Art Twins Glitter Topper: 02 Juliette || Claire's Cosmetics Crackle Nail Polish: D75 White || elf nail polish: Clear

Aaaaand this is how they turned out...
I really really like how my nails looked! This was so easy and fun to do that I might try it a few more times. What do you think?

Long Nails, Red Bottoms ❤

Who's not familiar with the fabulous red bottom Louboutin heels? No one.
But if you can't wear them on your feet anytime soon, wear them on your nails!


Let me know what you think!

Tutorial: Rainbow Water Marble Nails ❤

I love seeing all the nail arts tutorials on other blogs and youtube channels!
It makes me wish I was that creative with nail polish.. *sigh*
I am someone that can't stop buying nail polish, but when it comes to doing my nails I'm the worst and clumsiest person ever! I always get the polish all over my fingers instead of the nail where it is suppose to go in the first place haha! So for me to have my nails done, takes a lot of time.

So I think some of you might have heard already about Marble Nails. I simply love this nail art! You can create soooo many patterns and designs with your own nail polishes to give yourself a unique manicure! I found this tutorial on youtube, which doesn't need any further explanations really:

This is so cool! And you can just create a look like this or any other art with different color nail polishes of your choice! In the video she doesn't really explain what it is you exactly need, but she did add some others links that perfectly explain all of that. If you go on her youtube channel 'Simple Little Pleasures' she has so many other Marble Nails look tutorials. And on her personal blog you can see the looks in picture form.

I sure am going to try this once, maybe not with all the neon colors she used..but I sure want to see how mines will look like! Some people say that if you try this with fake nails rather than your own nails, it's much easier. Others argue about the temperature of water that works best. Honestly, I don't know.. I just think for everybody it works differently, you just have to try and find out for yourself!

What did you think of this look? Have you ever tried water marbling (is that the word? xD) your nails already? Show me pictures of how it turned out :)
