Chevron print is so hot right now & so is having an ‘accent nail’ in your mani. I knew I wanted to somehow marry the two but wasn’t sure how…& then it hit me, pinking shears & the edge of a sticker page! If you aren’t familiar pinking shears are scissors that cut in a […]

French braids into beachy waves
Last night I parted my hair slightly on the side while it was damp & then slept in two french braids…This is how it looked this morning after I pulled my bangs back & secured a little pouf with two gold bobby pins. I’ve always loved the messy, beachy, waves look & it’s surprisingly harder […]
Sock Bun Tutorial- Princess Tiana Hair Style

Pink french manis & nail art pens
