Summer nails

I've a feeling gel nails are going to be big again this summer, can't wait to get mine done! So here are some cute nail ideas, most pictures are thanks to pinterest :D 

I got these exact nails done last year and absolutely adored them! White matches with everything and looks great on tanned skin. 


Anything tropical themed gets my vote :)

You can't go far wrong with coral....




Why not get each nail in a different colour, these ones are really tempting me!

The wait is over - Nicole x Missguided

So the wait was finally over today as Nicole Scherzinger revealed her clothing collection with Missguided! The collaberation is composed of monochrome pieces with cobalt blue as the signature colour. 
Nicole herself describes it as ''sexy, classy, chic and strong.'' I'm personally not a huge fan of the collection, I thought it would be more original - something we havn't seen from Missguided before, however it is mostly leather crop tops and midi dresses and skirts. But that's just my opinion! My favourite piece from the collection is this 3 tone dress for nearly €56.

Product review - Argan oil / Moroccan oil

So what's the difference between argan oil and moroccan oil? Well, not much really! Argan oil comes from kernals produced by the argan tree in Morocco and is very high in vitamin E and fatty acids. Aswell as being used on the hair to treat split ends it can also be used on the skin to treat acne, dry skin and scarring. Moroccan oil is the same as argan oil except is has an additional ingredient added to it such as aloe vera. 

These products can be bought in Boots, Holland and Barrett or in Hennessys near the GPO in Cork. I would recommend these products to absolutely EVERYONE! It has done wonders to my hair! Just apply a drop (any more will make your hair greasy, trust me, I learned the hard way!) to wet hair and work through, then blowdry your hair. 

I notice an improvement in my hair immediately! It has grown much faster then ever before, is stronger and more shiny. But the biggest improvement I noticed is that my hair is much less frizzy and not as dry. I bought a 300ml bottle from Hennessy about 2 months ago, i think the price was about €15 but it will last me many more months to come. So for all ye readers out there, this is a beauty must buy!!

Boohoo and box tee bargains

Just a quick blog about my wishlist from Boohoo.com and box t-shirts jumbled into one. The box t-shirts are ones which I have myself but found for cheaper online :) 

I seem to be having trouble putting pictures from the Boohoo.com website directly onto the blog so I just searched from the images in google. :)

wishlist.... 

First up are these metallic blue running shorts, €22, I think they would look unreal with a white box T-shirt and runners to create that sports luxe style.  


Secondly this dogtooth check jumper for only €22


    

High shine midi skirt, €30, in black pink or blue, can't decide which colour I want the most! 

Now onto box t-shirts...


from missguided, €13.94, (also available in blue). I purchased an almost identical one a few weeks ago from riverisland for about €20 / 25 



Large grid checked over sized tee, €16. Again I got a similar one about a month ago in Dunnes Stores except it's black with pink stripes for €25, so this one above is definitely a style steal!


And last but not least, missguided, €20.92
I just love love love this top! The cut and colour are just perfect :) Unfortunately I have to restrain myself from buying it as I again I have a similar top which I purchased from Boohoo.com which is sleeveless :'(
