Hello lovelies,

Last week, I've had an interesting proposition from lovely people at Tangle Teezer. They've asked me if I'd like to create a nail art inspired by their Tangle Teezer hair brushes and tell you about a Twitter competition between Tangle Teezer and Little Ondine. I immediately said yes because I'm a huge fan of Tangle Teezer (TT) brushes and I haven't been using any others for the past 4 or so years.

Once I browsed the TT website to look for an inspiration, I came across their Salon Elite line full of colourful brushes. I've had an idea for fun, colourful and almost pop art stylised images so I tried to get as close as possible to my vision.

I've used two Tangle Teezers in the photos - Lemon Sherbet, a canary yellow and pastel pink and Blue Blush, bright blue and neon pink.

As for my nails, I wanted to match up the polishes as close to the TT colours as possible and then stick to the colour combinations on my nails. I also didn't want a busy design bt something very simple yet bold. This design was most likely done before but I didn't intentionally copy anyone and just played around :)

For my left hand I've used KIKO 295 Cerulean Blue, a bright blue nail polish and then I've used striper and painted the middle section with Models Own Pink Wellies, a neon pink polish. On my right hand, I've painted my nails with three coats of Accessorize Bubble Gum, a pink creme colour. The using striper again, I've painted the middle section with Rimmel 452 Chin up, Buttercup, a bright yellow creme. All sealed with Seche Vite topcoat which ultimately betrayed me at this instance and I had quite noticeable shrinkage after couple of hours :'(

Here's the rest of the photos I did for you with the help of my husband and keep reading for the details of the competition and how to join!

Hello lovelies,

Let's take a little break from nail polish and have a look at what's new in the world of JORD Wooden Watches. I like to wear these so from time to time I show you some of the new pieces. I have promised to review one of their new limited edition Delmar Drift colour combinations. I haven't seen the Delmar Drift watch before and I thought it might be unisex but upon receiving it I've realised this is definitely a male watch. It is massive so I couldn't model it well on my teeny tiny hands so I enlisted the services of my husband.

About: "Our signature Delmar series is known as a watch closet chameleon, appealing to various personalities who value the bold design and color contrast. As a thank you to our Delmar fans we are releasing a much requested, limited edition grouping. We'e paired Bamboo, Red Sandalwood, Dark Sandalwood, and Green Sandalwood with vivid carbon fiber faces in an arresting array of hue and grain. Deviate from the norm and indulge in a new Limited Edition, Delmar Drift."

Let's take a look at the watch first...

All JORD watches that I've got come in a nice wooden box and this piece was no different. The packaging is well-thought and includes a little branded pillow that the watch is wrapped around, little wooden medallion attached to each watch with a logo, instructions booklet and the wooden box with carved logo.

The Delmar Drift watch I've received has a large rectangular watchface with Pearl Carbon background and it's made of Green Sandalwood. Despite this watch being on the large side, it's still very light compared to a metal watch. I couldn't feel any rough or sharp edges and the watch looks very nicely done. There is a wide variety of colour combinations and different woods so there's one for everyone.

Features:

• scratch resistant mineral glass
• double locking fold-over clasp
• movement: Citizen Miyota 2035
• 1 year limited waranty
• case width: 44mm
• band thickness: 26mm - 36mm
• band length: 225mm
• The natural Green Sandalwood is hand finished and pretreated with tung oils
• The Delmar is splash-proof but should not be submerged in water (3 ATM).

I've been wearing another JORD watch (Ely series, picture below) a lot in the past year and it's one of my favourite watch!

JORD wooden watch would be a great option for a Father's Day, graduation, birthday present or any other occasion, don't you think? My husband happily accepted this piece and is wearing it as an alternative watch.

If you'd like to get your hands on one of the limited edition Delmar Drift pieces, you can purchase them at JORD website.

I love me some JORD watch - by the way have you seen the ladies Frankie watch? It's so beautiful! Do you own any wooden watch yet? Stay tuned for some nails soon ;)

Have a lovely day! Lucie
