Orange and Lemons





Here's how

  1. I started off with a base coat to protect my natural nails.
  2. Next I used a green nail polish for my base color (BNC Nail Polish)
  3. Then I used a yellow nail polish (Caronia Sweet Surprise) to make an almost round shape lemon. I did this by rotating my toenails while keeping my brush still.
  4. To create the white lines, you could use a pen or a brush. I draw it using a nail art pen (BNC 2-way nail art pen and brush)
  5. I finished this off with a quick dry top coat (Caronia) to seal my design and have a shinny finish.


cute. little. shoes.

Who isn't familiar with these shoes? Indeed, its an All Star footwear. Started in 1917, named after a basketball player named  Charles "Chuck" Taylor. It made a shift from a athletic sportswear to a casual footwear. 


These classic shoes really looks cute on my nails!

Domo Kun

Saw this image as I browse the net. Got curious what it is, because I also saw this quite frequently on t-shirts bags toys etc.

I learned that Domo Kun or just Domo, is the official mascot of Japan's NHK channel. He looked strange. Is he scary? angry? but he sure looks cute.
