Show me your CLAWS !

For some strange reason, I have really been into nail art lately. It's a shame too because I'm not allowed to wear nail polish at work (my day job that pays the bills). That doesn't stop me from getting my toes done though. My toes aren't visible at my job so I go crazy with them. I think that nails are a great way to express yourself and show some personality. I could get my nails done for my days off but I would just have to remove the polish way too soon and that means a lot of wasted money at the nail shop. So I'm quickly becoming a fan of do-it-yourself nails. These photos gave me a bit on inspiration. I also have posted a few videos of how to create a leopard print nail design. Enjoy !


The first couple pics were found here: http://phresh-mentality.com/?tag=nail-design
Definitely check out this site. I'm soooo loving it ! The blogger tells what nail polish (brand and name of color) she uses to create the look. I will definitely be referring to this site as I embark on my journey of do-it-yourself nails. If you like her site, please become a follower ! Follow mine as well, since I'm the one who told you about it. Ha!

The next site to check out is gatzu.com. I found the next couple of pics here: http://www.gaztu.com/nail-art-design/leopard-prints-nail-art-2011.html

I'm soooo lovin' this next one, found here: http://nailartmania.com/slides/LEOPARD%20ACRYLIC%20ROSE%20NAIL%20ART%20DESIGN.html

I will definitely be trying this next nail design. It's a real eye-catcher, don't you think? It was found here : http://www.simplenaildesigns.com/leopard-nail-designs-leopard-nail-art/

The next design is so fresh and innovative. I like it because its more sophisticate,d in my opinion. The pastels work great for this design. This design will turn heads but won't blind you with too many bright colors. You know some days, you don't want to be too bright. There's a time for everything !I would feel really girly (which I love) if I were to wear this design.  I found the pic here: http://www.makeupandbeautycare.com/view-all/leopard-print-nail-art-designs.html. Following this pic are a few others on the site that I liked as well.

Here is an option as well. Looking at this next pic, you would not know that these were stickers. Aren't they gorgeous. I found out about these on this site : http://stephscloset.com/blog/beauty/2009/09/641/product-review-hot-topic-press-on-nail-polish/

The stickers can be found at Hot Topic for only $5 ! How cool is that. On the site, I read that the stickers last about three days. This is perfect for me because I am usually off 2-3 days at a time. Yes ! I will definitely be looking in nail art stickers from here on out ! They were created with lazy people like me in mind ! Thank God ! LOL!

Request Dance Crew - Leopard Print !

Just wanted to share this video with you all. I love watching America's Best Dance Crew and I was stoked when this group came on the stage wearing LEOPARD PRINT ! Their dancing wasn't bad either ;-)

My two favorite chicks!

I've decided to do a post on my two favorite famous chicks in the world, well after Michelle Obama and Julia Roberts, that is. I am such a fan of Rihanna and Katy Perry. I LUV their style. If I could just combine their closets to make my own, I would be the happiest girl in the world. I love Rihanna's edgy look and I love Katy Perry's girly look. Both of them are soooo me. They were THE coolest clothes EVER. I could have split this post into two different posts but I wanted to do them together because they represent the two sides of me. I also thought it was fitting since Rihanna and Katy Perry are best buds. Here are my favorite images of them in, you guessed it....LEOPARD....enjoy.

Here is Katy Perry on the cover of an Australian issue of Cosmopolitan. The image came was found at this link: http://community.livejournal.com/ohnotheydidnt/52128655.html

Here is Katy again in leopard, this time on the cover of Glamour magazine.

Below is one of my absolute favorite pics. I was instantly attracted to this pic because of the leopard print of course, but also because it was so darn cute, girly, and creative. This is from an ad for her new perfume name Purr. I love it ! This image was found at this link: http://style.mtv.com/2010/10/15/katy-perry-photo-purr-fragrance/

The image below is a great look for Katy. I say this because I am used to her looking cute, like a doll. The picture below is a sexy picture of her. It makes me want to go out and buy an outfit just like this one and strike the exact same pose. Somebody grab a camera quick. Hmmm...wheels are turning in my head. Think I could pull it off?

Here are some pics of Rihanna in leopard print that are so FREAKIN FIERCE ! The first three are definitely my favorites because I wish to recreate them. They were found here: http://www.fashionfame.com/2010/06/rihanna-in-elle-july-2010-talks-new-boyfriend-chris-brown/

This next pixture is awesome. I love love love it ! Only Rihanna.....and me, would do this. This girl just doesn't care what anybody thinks does she? This image can be located here : http://www.upscalehype.com/2010/10/rihanna-wearing-wolford-leopard-stay-up-stockings/

Below is a cute pic of Rihanna. It's such a playful pic. The image can be found here: http://www-hollywoodlife-com.vimg.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/021110_rihanna_nails.jpg

The next pic is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE leopard print outfit on Rihanna. I think it's because the all white outfit makes the leopard print blouse stand out that much more. I have been wanting to copy this one for a VERY LONG TIME. The image can be found at http://www.tatianajerome.com/how-rihanna-does-leopard-print-clothing

Loving this cute leopard print bow tie brooch Rihanna is wearing ! The image can be found at http://www.theglamazondiaries.com/2009/12/recession-chic-rihanna-in-marc-clarke.html

Dress Me Up in Leopard !

I am posting on dressing up in leopard (featuring leopard print dresses) because lately I have been into dresses. I'm a girl who rarely wears a dress but for some reason, I have been buying dresses lately. I feel so ladylike and beautiful in them. I like the glamorous look it gives off but most of all, I enjoy the feeling I have when I'm in them. So consider this post my love letter to dresses...well leopard print ones that is ! Hope you all enjoy ! These are all found on Asos.com. This is one my favorite sites to shop so I decided to feature them in this post.
