Travel Supermarket Beauty and The Beach Two ♥

For the past two years; Travel Supermarket have ran a competition for bloggers called 'beauty and the beach'. All you have to do is post your favourite holiday hair, nails or make up and explain how you achieved the look. It is very easy and you can find out more.

I have decided to enter the nails and hair category!

NAILS 

When it comes to summer time and painting my nails I like having something simple but with a twist! I am not a nail art professional, but I like to have a go every now and then. I also like doing things on my nails that don't take that long because I can't wait for my nails to dry and this is super easy and quick!

- 2 Nail Polishes ( One Base + Flower Colour)
I am going to be using the BarryM Gelly in 'Blueberry' as this is a gorgeous blue colour for summer time and these nail polishes last for ages! Along with Essie 'Cascade Cool' another lovely colour for the summer time and for the beach.
- Hair Grip

Step 1 - First of all you need to paint all your nails the base colour, I recommend applying two coats as it gives you a better colour.
Step 2 - With your chosen polish for the flower, dab some onto a piece of paper to make using the polish a lot easier! Grab your hair grip, open it up and dip it in the polish!
Step 3 - Before painting onto my nails, I practised on the piece of paper - to make sure I'm not shaking.
Step 4 - Then go ahead and paint the flower on to your nail; starting with the centre and working your way out.

Clean up any mess with a cotton bud and apply a top coat to seal in your design! And hey presto you have your very own dotting tool and pretty nails!

HAIR

I have long hair and I have previously had short hair too. I know that summer can be a pain for all types and lengths of hair, you just want to do something with it that doesn't require heat and effort! This hairstyle is super easy and requires sleep! This is so easy, you are going to be amazed that you can get easy, no stress, heat-less waves over night!

You Will Need;
- Salt Spray/Curling Spray ( optional )
- Clips
- Hairspray
-Comb

Step 1 - Wash your hair the night before and let it dry naturally so that your hair becomes damp.
Step 2 - Split your hair into two and comb it threw to remove any knots and tangles. Spray the hair with either salt spray or a curling spray ( this step is optional, it works with or without the product!)

Step 3. Starting at the front, twist your hair until you get to the end and clip it up with any sort of clips you can find!

Step 4 - Spray Hairspray evenly throughout the hair to keep it in place over night! Then have a good night's sleep.

Step 5- In the morning when you're all ready, take the clips out and shake your hair around to add some volume and style it as you like!

How to Wear; Coloured Jeans ♥

Coloured Jeans are everywhere these days, and I seem to have fallen in love with them. Whether it's the pastel ones or the bright coloured jeans they are all easy, affordable, and versatile which makes it easier and easier to wear this season's big colour trend.

When it comes to styling, you can NEVER go wrong when pairing coloured jeans with black, white, cream, brown or a nude coloured top. Any pair of bright jeans would look awesome with a white shirt, a black silk shirt , a cream-coloured cardigan sweater or a black blazer. 

Here are a few rules before we get into it; 

# Darker Coloured Jeans are best when you don't want to draw attention to hips/thighs.

# If you are petite, wear a top in a neutral that isn't a lighter or darker.

# Add a print in the neutral shade (even stripes) that works with the colour of jeans.

# Colours of Jeans don't have to be too bright, choose muted colours that suits you best

# Jeans in bright colours need bright neutrals such as black and white.

#Wear shoes in same colour as your coloured jeans can give taller look and elongate your legs.

-Playing it safe
If you don't want to or don't like to experiment a lot with your coloured jeans and want to be on the safer side, then pair them with a black, white or a neutral colour top. Believe it or not, they always go with any colour. These colours never go out of style either!

-Colour blocking it
If you are bold and daring, then, colour block it! Pair your coloured jeans with a contrasting colour top or a colour block top.

-Denim on denim
Yes, classic denim shirts and tops do go with coloured denim jeans. They match with almost all the colours, but bare in mind of the shade of the denim top. Always make sure that the shade of the top should go with the colour of your jeans. Like, lighter shades of denim look great with lighter colour jeans like pink and yellow.

-Prints and patterns
Summer is all about beautiful prints and patterns, be it floral print any other pattern. Pairing such tops with a coloured jeans is simply amazing! But  you have to keep the colour in mind and match the dominating colour of the top with a contrasting coloured jeans.
