In my last post I mentioned that I was going to my cousins wedding reception on the 29th of August and that I would be posting pictures of my outfit, make up and general pictures of the night so that is exactly what I will be doing today! :D I also have a note to say so that will be at the end :)
Firstly I will show you a picture of my nails. I decided to do them myself as it would be easier and cheaper than getting them done professionally! I chose a gold and black theme for my whole outfit as it matched my dress and I think it looks classic and elegant for a wedding reception but its also a little edgy! So here are my nails;

| To get these nails I used NYC Full Metal Jacket (gold) and NYC City Blackout (black) and used a striping brush to achieve the black design.
After doing my nails, I decided to do my hair. The nigh before the wedding party (Thursday) I washed my hair but instead of blow drying it, I French plaited the two sides of my hair so that in the morning when I took it out my hair would have a wavy/curly effect. To finish off my hair I added a plait in my fringe and clipped it back. I wanted a more casual hair style as I wanted the attention to be on my dress and didn't want to over do it.
