An other designer that smacks you in the face and gets ripped off is Louis Vuitton...how obvious is his design?
I think you are spot on Cathie. I can't understand why people pay so much to wear things that are like out of a fire sale and such mass production.

I agree with you Cathie, that is why no one is ever able to tell what designers I am wearing

I have a few designer things but no-one has any idea because the label is on the inside

Zoe's on a bit of a roll with this idea of hers (chic nail art) . Wait till you see the next one. The beauty editor is a regular of hers after she met her at the salon launch

Great isn't it

I wish I'd seen this earlier. Have just done my nails. Such a simple but effective idea. Will see if I can persuade anyone to have them done.

Hi Oey

Zoe has been doing some fabulous salon work and is really only just getting into this type of work. She is one of my 'salon team' but has been doing more stuff in my 'session team' (she's just come back from Paris and my Fashion Week shows which I'm sure will make an appearance in her own inimitable style in Scratch very soon) Mike, who posted earlier, has been doing some great stuff in my sessions team too.

If you want to see a tiny bit of my work (not aimed at the nail industry at all!) have a look at streeters then London then 'Nail Technician'

Thanks Marian

I absolutely love the silver hallmarked nail - how did you achieve that look?

Apologies for hi-jacking the thread but I am sure that there are loads of others would love to know how this one is done too!

I picked up a copy of Dare magazine in Superdrug. On page 29 this month a half page pic with words regarding The two-tone manicure - want to get the nail craze?

Very nice picture of short nails with pink and orange two tone nails (pink on free edge). Under the picture : two tone nail polish, as seen on Lily Allen.

Gives credit to Zoe Pocock as the manicurist who started the "Craze".

SORRY NO I have NO scanner!

you could also get this effect from using clear tips with a thin layer of red aycrlic on zone one covered by another thin layer of black or chosen colour choice or sculpt red zone one covered by black or chosen colour

Hi Marian,

I know this is a terribly cheeky question, but for the Rimmel FM ad, did you actually use Rimmel products to achieve the look ?
