Lana Del Rey Inspired Nail Art

The video for Lana Del Rey's new single, Born To Die, was released on Wednesday and I'm not exaggerating when I say I've been listening to the song on repeat ever since I first heard it (apart from the hours I spent at work or sleeping). This chick is just gorgeous and she's my hair idol. Mine WILL look like that one day!



Lana's nails in the video are so sexy. These were the best screen shots I could get of the nails but you can watch the stunning video in full here.


I used Cult Nails Cruisin' Nude as a base then freehanded the chevrons with La Femme Cherry Red (3rd day in a row I've used this shade!) using a striping brush.
I used Barry M Gold Foil with a smaller striping brush to freehand the gold lines.
If you don't have steady, line drawing hands, you can use scotch tape to mark off the area you want to paint red, just make sure your base colour is completely dry before you go sticking tape on your nails.

Day 13: Animal Print

Who doesn't love a good animal print nail huh? This combination of colour and stamping is the one I used to wear the most before I started blogging, but it's been a long time since I wore it. I was going to try something more adventurous today, like freehanding a leopard print, but laziness took over and I pulled out my stamping plates!

If you're craving more animal print manis, check out Cristina and Rie's Day 13 challenges too!
