Marc by Marc Jacobs SS11 v3.0


Not totally sure how I feel about these nails. I bought a yellow nail art pen from a shop in Chinatown and it was shit. Really hard to use. This would probably look better on longer nails.

Base: Butter London "Pearly Queen"
Black bands: WAH Nails Model's Own nail art pen
Yellow triangles: shitty cheap pen from Chinatown

I did these nails after three attempts at doing some more runway nails. I couldn't do any of the previous prints any justice on my nails and was getting increasingly frustrated when I thought I'd do this as it's relatively simple.

I used Butter London's "Pearly Queen" as the base colour, then layered on dots with the end of a hair pin (works quite well if you don't have any tools like me!) The black and white were Barry M and the red was OPI's "Monsooner or Later". Easy peasy.

These nails were actually retweeted by Marc Jacobs and Sophy Robson (my nail idol)!
