Gothic nails style

0 comments
Well you can call it whatever you like. It's with no doubt a dark style and sometimes I call it gothic somethings EBM or Industrial, since I'm more of an EBM kind of girl.

Since my semi-permanent manicure I did a few weeks ago reached its final days it was high time I did something about it. So off with the old, in with the new. This time I decided to go for my classic black nail polish but with a little twist.

I'm using a Maybelline Color Show nail polish called Blackout and here is a picture of it:



And then I used this glittery stripes nail polish from Isadora, N.863



Both of them here:


So first I applied the black nail polish and after a few minutes, when it dried, I applied the glittery-stripes Isadora (I don't know if there is a better word for it, but it's glittery and they are stripes so there you have it :) ).

And here is the result. Cool yes?





Since I'm not a nails professional please pardon my amateur-manicure but I hope you like it and that it gives you some inspiration.

Experiment my friends and stay cool, stay goth!

Little miss Gothic Fashion is back!

I know it's not the world's most important event but I'm back home in Sweden and it feels sooo good.

I was in Greece, in Athens, for two weeks visiting relatives and taking care of some paper stuff business. Boring stuff with the greek authorities but they need to be done.

I am ashamed of myself for not going to not even one goth club during these two weeks. In my defence there weren't any descent events - or none that I was aware of - so I don't feel that guilty :).

So, as I said, I'm back home (funny I use the word home for Sweden now, but it really feels like that. I've been living here for 5 years and it has been amazing so far) and I'm catching up with my work.

I didn't stop working during my time away so it's not much catching up, but it's different sitting in my own desk, in peace and quiet, without the constant interruptions. Athens is a big chaotic city (which I love) and interruptions are unavoidable.

However, I did manage to visit the beauty salon and treat myself with a hair styling (a simple one) and a semi-permanent manicure.



Here are some pictures of me treating myself :)
This is the only white shirt I own. It features a huge cross and skull in the front though. And it also shows my tattoo hihi /myposerself. And you can also see my skulls scarf on the bench.

And thats me from the other side.
This is my semi-permanent manicure. It's the first time I did it and I really liked the procedure. Unfortunatelly they didn't have any really gothic colours ( no black ) and so I decided to try out a combination of white and dark burgundy. I do like the "reverted french manicure" style and I will be on the lookout for black/red combination.


This is it for my small update.  More things to come soon so stay tuned and stay Goth!
