Two Tone

 Top: New Look | Skirt: ASOS | Cardigan: M&S | Tights: Topshop | Bracelet: eBay | Ring: Dollybowbow | Nail Wraps: Topshop

I decided to dig out a few items from my wardrobe which haven't seen the light of day for a while, I love going for a little wardrobe shop, it's so easy to forget what you have! This skirt must've been the first or second thing I ever purchased from ASOS, a good few years ago now, it has a kind of three tier/bustle at the back; it's really different. I think the tights are also about two years old because I remember wearing them in sixth form! (How have I not laddered them?!) I'm also wearing my M&S granny cardigan which my Mum and my Granny both have too, I have to choose when to wear it very carefully!

As you can probably see I have the Meadham Kirchhoff nail wraps on, which look fairly decent from the picture, but don't be fooled they creased like a bitch! I'm generally unimpressed with nail wraps as a whole even if they do look ridiculously cute. I won't be buying again. What is everyone else's experience with nail wraps? Am I doing it wrong?

    Nice outfit! I have that top too, isn't it nice? :D Cool tights, they add a nice little flare to the look :) I've never tried nail wraps as in all honesty I can't be bothered with them. They look like a pain to apply so I'd rather just paint my nails xx

      Hehe, it is a nice top indeed! When I first got it though I couldn't wear it in New Look because all the mannequins had it on, haha! I'm not going to bother with nail wraps again.

    Your top and tights <3 Those nail wraps are amazing and so cute - I need them! I've never used them before so it will probably be a complete disaster.

    Saw those nail wraps in toppers today, they are gorgeous but yeaah i agree, they are awful to put on, they crease and feel horrible!! I'm never using them again, would prefer to messily hand painted nails haha! anyway, your outfit is lovely, suits you so well :) xoxo

      Thanks for the lovely comment ^_^ I was convinced I was doing something wrong with the nail wraps, I doubt I'll ever purchase any more! x

      Thank you! That's a shame - I did them on fake nails so they would last longer, but after two days they were looking a bit tatty :\

      Thanks :) They are tricky, people say you can just quickly stick them on and go... This wasn't the case for me! x

    I love that collar. I've used Sally Hansen nail strips and I love them but I don't use them often because they are a bit pricey.

      These ones were pricey too, but I couldn't pass up the cuteness! I won't be buying nail wraps again.

    I love that top! I have heard so many mixed reviews about nails wraps don't know if they are worth the effort?
