Cute Club Look

Schoolboy Uniform Power

A preppy look almost like a uniform with the white shirt and navy-blue pants.
Accented with a statement bib necklace and black rose earrings.
(Look in the mirror to see shoes)

I went to a club called 51 for an after party, after a party (last lap) with my sister, Jessica and my friend, Chanice.
Usually people wear dresses to this club but I wasn't feeling a dress that night so I wore this outfit instead and twinned with my sister :D

5 Staple: Nail Polish/Lacquer colours



So you have decided to indulge further into the "Girly Realm" and have started buying nail polish. Here are five colours you should buy first! The must haves if your collection is going to be manageable. (good luck with keeping your collection that way)

It's hard to buy polish especially when there are affordable brands like Kleancolor, L.A colors and L.A Girl that do not limit how much you can buy >.<
If you're buying the mid-priced and higher end polishes you probably want to have a few colours you know you will use often. I personally have a mix of both but the more expensive polishes are the staple colours.

Here are the colours (in no particular order)


Nude polish


When I say nude I mean a nude that suits your skin-tone. These can either be pinkish hued or brown or peach even beige depending on your skin-tone. You don't want a nude polish that makes your nails look yellow and icky.
If you want to see what suits your skin tone check out this post by Allure

Red polish


Everyone needs a red polish for those fiery feeling days when hot doesn't cut it but fierce does.
Just as with nudes the appropriate red for your tone should be chosen. If you already have a lipstick that is the perfect red for you then try to match it or a shade lighter or darker depending on your hands.


Metallic polish: gold or silver or copper


This is essential for Glam Nights or days on the beach when you want your toes to be treasure.


Black polish



Are words needed?
Grungy week, then black. Chic and Sleek, then black. Busted feet, then black.
This comes in handy for patterns too.


Neon polish


This is a must have nowadays with neon trickling into everything it is now a fad in the nail polish world. Using this for designs or just plain keeps people focused. (if you talk with your hands)
Any colour can work, I personally like neon orange.
