You'll probably never see me without nail polish on my finger nails but usually I'm not fussed about my toes. However, this is such an easy way to make your feet look pretty (and I'm no big fan of my feet...or feet in general for that matter) that it begs a try. People will marvel at your intricate brush work skills but actually all you need is a trusty old sharpie pen.
How to....
- Paint two layers of white nail polish (I used Barry M)
- Then start zig-zagging your way across your toe nails with your sharpie marker
- Seal them with a coat of clear nail polish.
I've had mine done like this for over a week and there are no chips at all! Fun...check. Pretty...check. Durable...check.
Next time I'm after a gold sharpie marker.

Here's a simple DIY idea for yourself or even better, a gift. When I think fridge magnets, I usually think 'tacky' but these should add some colour and life to your fridge or notice board without the tat. All you need is...
For the gold areas I used my gold metallic paint as a base and then covered this with two layers of gold glitter Barry M nail polish. It might sound strange but it worked and it's ridiculously durable. Getting that gold stuff off my nails is some hard graft I'm telling you!
I can't get enough of nail polish at the moment. It's such an easy way to add a pop of colour and with all the shades in the shops, it's a colour geeks dream! I noticed this colour combination when I was sorting through my polishes the other day, which inspired me to create the palette above.
