Happy Monday Lovelies! How was your weekend?
Now that I've got my outfit sorted for the Cosmopolitan Blog Awards (4th Oct), I've been focusing on things like hair & nails.
When I saw this photo on Cupcakes & Cashmere, I knew using diamonds instead of pearls would add the perfect touch of glam I was looking for.
And so for a practice run...
I chose Chanel Vertigo to try this out (although I may wear Chanel Rouge Noir for the awards ceremony).
Using 2 different sizes of stick on diamantes, I chose to apply in 3 different ways:
1. A simple row along the tip of the nail.
2. A semi-circular row following the cuticle shape.
3. Built up layers. My thumb nail is built up to a pyramid.
This doesn't take long at all to do & has the professional finish I was hoping for.
So what do you think?
Is this something you would wear for a special occasion?
Just want to wish Missy my German Shepherd Dog a Happy 7th Birthday! Remember this post I dedicated to her last year?
The last 7 years have been enriched so much for having her in my life.
Have a wonderful start to the week Lovelies

Very cute - I loved having a similar mani on I did it for a challenge - it was hard not to get distracted when driving)))
Very cool! :)
Lovely and sexy!! :) Nail stones are such a great way to glam up your nails <3
I like that you arranged the rhinestones differently on each nail. I did a similar style once and it looked cute, though in my case not for long, since I couldn't resist playing with the stones.
Hope you enjoy the Cosmo ceremony!
Adele I love these nails! Definitely an amazing look and you'll have to let us know how the rhinestone removal process is...I have a hard time with glitter as it is.
love this! Would definitely consider this for a special occasion!
