DIY~ Duct Tape Bow

Hey girlies! Now that summer vacation is winding down to and end, we need to start getting back into the swing of things. School is around the corner and that means late nights studying, early mornings, and bad hair days. An easy, quick choice is to pin back bangs with a bobby pins, but using a bow adds some quirkiness and preppiness!

Bows can be great to accessorize an outfit or add some color, and wearing a duct tape bow will make an outfit pop! But you won't even realize it's duct tape from far away! It costs a few cents to make and it's a great project to do with friends on a lazy day!

Nail Tutorial ~ Perfect French Mani

Hey girls!

Today I wanted to show you guys a quick tutorial on how I love to create a super easy french manicure.  This look is one of my all-time favorites because it can be literally be worn with anything from casual to dressy.  It's a nice change from super bold colors, yet still looks chic and different.  I used to use tape, but it gave be these boxy french nails that didn't look amazing.  After much testing, I found this great solution that everyone has in their home that really makes your french mani pop!

I chose band-aids because they are sticky like tape but have a rounded top so that the white portion of the manicure is rounded.  It made the process so super quick and extremely easy!  The greatest piece of advice I have though is make sure it FULLY dries.  If it's not rock solid yet, I would not stick the band-aid on or else you will end up with a gloppy mess.

Let's get started!
