Ever try to grow your natural nails out but they end up breaking? Yeah, me too. It happens to the best of us. In this tutorial I'll show you how I fix my broken nails with just two items!

Things you’ll need:
Silk wraps.
Ridge filling nail polish.
Or Nail glue.

Paint your nail with the ridge filling nail polish then cut off a small piece of the silk wrap and place it on the part where your nail is broken. Pain over the silk wrap until it dissolves, then wait for it to dry.
All done!

There are lots of books and movies you can draw inspiration from. A few examples include Hocus Pocus, The Addams Family, Meg and Mog and not forgetting Scream.

A company named Rocket Originals was kind enough to give me a sweater to review. They’re a small Family company, but they have very unique and authentic looking vintage products. Which makes sense, since they’ve been admirers of the eras they recreate since their teen years. Their aim is to make their products as historically accurate as possible.

I’ve worn it about three times now: when the weather is cool, but not quite cold enough for a jacket. It’s held up so far with no tears in the knitting or fatting away of the colors.

The sweater they gifted me Is styled after a popular 1940s design, which I find very cute but casual. Overall, it’s a nice quality sweater

Pair your clothes with modern accessories.Accessories - and we are going to lump footwear into this category - can make or break an outfit.
