Wedding OOTD and NOTD Part 2

Today's post is a continuation of yesterdays and covers day 2 of my cousins wedding (the walima). 
On this day I opted for a trail dress, shorter at the front and longer at the back. Unfortunately you will only get a front view as I don't have a picture of the back. 
I love the colour combo on this outfit, the royal blue and the cerise pink go together so well. It is one of my Asian wedding outfits in my possession. 

As weddings go on til late and day 2 was the day after day 1, I really didn't have much time to do any intricate nail art or anything that took too long. I was rushed on time so I opted for a simple french tip manicure but I surprisingly got a lot of compliments on my nails that day.

Onto the outfit and the nails...




Polishes I used:
Duri Rejuvacote
Nails Inc Baker Street
Nails Inc New York 
Seche Vite

I did the french tip free hand but if you hands are shaky and can't free hand you can always make sure the base colour is completely dry then tape off your nails and apply the tip. 

Super easy, super quick and super cute. 

Thanks for reading!!

Wedding OOTD and NOTD Part 1

So, some of you may recall that I had a few close family weddings whilst I was away from blogging. Today I am going to show you one mani I did on myself for my cousins wedding along with my outfit.

We will start with my outfit. As some of you may have notice I am Pakistani, so for this wedding I wore a sari. I love saris and think they are so elegant so long as they are simple and not too OTT. Some people think you can't wear hijab with saris but I like to think I did an OK job.
But, you can decide...



So that was what I wore, now lets get on to my favourite part of getting dressed up, the nails!!

So I found a polish that was closest to the colour of my sari and used it as a base. I decided to do two accent nails; the thumb and ring finger.
For the accent fingers I decided on a gold half moon, the added some rhinestones and gold micro beads to it to get the final look.
Here is what my nails ended up looking like...



Polishes I used:
Duri Rejuvacote
Milani Fresh Teal
Orly Luxe
Seche Vite

I also used:
Clear Rhinestones (3 different sizes)
Gold Micro Beads
Nail Glue
Dotting Tool (to apply the rhiestones/beads)


So there is my wedding NOTD and OOTD, I hope you ejoyed reading it. As Pakistani weddings have 2 main days I will be uploading the second day (walima) soon too. :)

P.S I am sorry that my picture quality isn't great, as I wasn't blogging the only picture I took were on my phone. Sorry!!
