Wearing: Mood by Me shirt, complex geometries skirt, Nail varnish by Barry M and Chanel
The manicure I'm addicted to at the moment is this super easy DIY; you just cut triangle shapes out of masking tape and stick them over your cuticles, all you need to do then is paint over the top and peel off! I'm loving having the underneath triangle natural, but it would work so well with other colours too. So far this week I've had grey and then last night switched to navy satin, but what I'm really craving is a matt/shiny combo. I need to get myself some matt top coat ASAP!
When you work all day every day with your hands it's impossible to keep a good manicure up. I'm a bit of a biter, unless I have a coat of nail varnish on I won't have any nails to contend with at all; so, a few days ago mid moan about the state of disrepair my nails had fallen into, Taylor Taylor said I should come along with Jen and try out their luxury manicure. As soon as we entered the salon/haven on Commercial Street, we were offered up a comfy chair and a cocktail menu (I kid you not, you can order any cocktail off the menu, any amount of times for free with your treatment). I sat downstairs whilst Jen had her cut and colour, and felt a million miles away from London and my busy studio.
This was seriously a luxury experience that I hadn't felt before and my nails have never looked so good! The luxury manicure includes the full pampering treatment with exfoliation and massage, followed by a hand mask, cleanse and shape. I think I need to start looking after myself a bit more and I'll know the place to head to next time I'm in need.
I'm wearing a dark red wine varnish with Maria Nilsdotter rings.
Thank you so much Taylor Taylor for giving me a refresh in time for fashion week!
