Triangularity: Born Pretty rhinestones review

Hey-oh! Welcome to my second review post! Today is the day I'm finally talking about something different than nails (but about nails, too. x)

The heroes of this post are the 4mm rhinestones from Born Pretty store, and should I tell you I was baffled upon seeing them in my package. Thing is, they were sent to me by mistake (instead of round glitter) and there was no way I'd use them in nail art.

So I decided to make a pendant.

Всем привет! Сегодня я наконец-то покажу вам что-то отличное от ногтей (но и ногти тоже. x) А именно, стразы из магазина Born Pretty.

Когда я только достала их из конверта, то несколько растерялась: вместо них должны были прислать круглый глиттер, и для моих ногтей они были слишком велики. 

Поэтому я решила сделать кулон.

Of spring and universe-famous shoes

Is it spring already? And is this how it works?
I'll start from the beginning, if I may. Chances are you've already seen this picture:

Let me boast — I painted these shoes. They are called Miss Universe, painted with acrylic paints and adorned with a couple of Swarovski crystals. I love them a little bit more shoes can even be loved.

I made them last summer, and it's quite natural this photo spread from my dA to all over the interwebz. It happens. Yeah, some of them have my signature cropped. Yeah, some had a hideous filter slapped upon. These are some things I decided not to care of anymore. Unless only...

'Ello, 'ello, 'ello!


Hello! Welcome to my brand new blog!

emBrace by alexskyline

I'm mostly known as alexskyline on deviantART, and I enjoy my little gallery there very much. Nevertheless, I always wanted to get a separate, more personal place where I could post everything I want. Tumblr seemed like a good option at first, but eventually all the pretty reblogged stuff took over. So...here I am at last. :)

My decision to start a blog was also inspired by the many nail art and polish-related sites I've been actively browsing lately. However, this place is not going to become one of them. Or...at least, not completely. ;D

So, allow to introduce myself to give you an idea of what to expect from this blog, and what are the reasons to follow it. Keep reading!
