Minx Nail Art
Recently came across this very exciting new nail trend... Minx! Basically these are nail wraps, and are available in a multitude of prints and block colours. In addition I have heard you can upload your own designs and came them sent to you! The nail wraps are heated then adhered easily to the nails, and the excess wrap is then simply filed off for a long lasting high gloss nail patterned look! I am already thinking of lots of different designs I would like to create myself such as an aztec print and cute little images of rainbows, hearts and stars. To get me started I have purchased some cheetah print minx wraps on bay, along with a 'hoof slick', I hear from a video tutorial that the hoof stick is key to achieving a good result. You usually are supposed to use a specialised infrared light to heat up the wraps, but I actually intend to cheat as I have been told that actually a hairdryer does the trick. Minx nail wraps start at about £10 but I hear that they last around 6 weeks, or even longer on toes.

Mrs Jones Wants You
I was at the Mrs Jones fashion sale and party yesterday, and had an amazing time looking through the beautiful vintage statement pieces, having a drink of some really delicious fruity punch, and enjoying the view from the rooftop of the eclectic hidden location, vintage emporium located on St John's Street, just round the corner from my agency off St John's Sq actually, so I stopped by after work. Didn't stay for long, and now just can't wait to return and actually try on and buy some glamourous items from the fabulous selection on offer by Fee, the mastermind designer behind outfits worn by the likes of Kylie. The most impressive items included sheer playsuits, amazing jackets (there was an aztec one I can't stop obsessing over now!) and a truly unique selection of vintage sunglasses. Also, was excited to see that there is now also hair styling on offer, what a perfect place to get ready for a night out! 100% have to return asap. Mrs Jones is located at 71 St John's Street, Clerkenwell, and the nearest tube is Farringdon, totally worth a visit!
