Emerald Nails

These were done at home using:

- Clear/transparent stiletto nails 
- Nail glue
- Nail drill
- Barry M 'Green Glitter' (298) 

It helps to get the stiletto shape pre-made, so far I've been spending ages shaping square nails into this shape but then realised you can get these cheap and only have to do a little shaping yourself. You can pick up a nail drill for about £15 on eBay but these can be cheap imports so won't necessarily last very long. If you want to save on getting a drill get a high grit file instead.

It takes about 40-45 mins to do this, be really careful with the glue, it runs like water and damages surfaces!

Hologram Clam

I bought this Silver Hologram Seashell Bag from the SwayChic website (although it appears they have since sold out). It's also available from a site called Koshka. I normally prefer big bags so I was pleased this was a large shell! It was sent from the US so ended up costing me a fair bit to ship (to the UK) but I became a bit obsessed with it once I saw it on tumblr.

I have just 3 pieces from my FoxyLocks extension set in. I find with the premium set that you can get away without wearing all the pieces as its so thick, feels lighter too. I curl them with GHD's and brush them out a bit
