Do you like ‘Stiletto’ Nails?

Have you heard of ‘stiletto nails’? They are long, oval and seen on the hands of Rihanna, Gaga, and Blake Lively. I think it’s kind of cool that the nail shapes that were popular on 1930s starlets are back again. I just don’t know if I can get them. They look intense and  could be very glamourous but I don’t know if I dress up enough to get them? I remember when I was younger the only types of nails that I thought were cool were square nails and everything else looked outdated. Now I kind of like them; I guess that’s fashion. Also I have figured out that the only time round nails have not been in is the 90s and 2000′s.  What do you Think?

Some examples of nails from the 1930s:

In the 1960s:

On the other hand check out these nails stickers from Newlook’s Gold By Giles. There are two things I learned about putting nail stickers on:

1) Buff and file your nails

2) Use Acetone nail remover on your nail so that there are no oils on your nail.

3) put the nail stickers on your nail and use the nail on your other hand to smooth it out!

Check out my new Leopard Kicks ( That I designed)!

Have I ever told you I’m obsessed with leopard? Well, I am! For Valentine’s day this year apart from going to dinner  the day before V-day (because we hate the awkwardness that comes with date only dinners), my lovely bf gave me a coupon to Design my own Converse! You might think ‘but converse already come in every design imaginable’…well they don’t! I had been wanting trainers for a while now and what better way to go than with classics? I had seen leopard print converse but only with the white rubber which I was not really a fan of. This is what I came up with! What do you think? Oh yeah and for those of you that don’t follow me on instagram (@misscheapchic). These are my new nail stickers from HM, they are so fun to look at!
