Piss Up and Pandas.

Hello everyone. How are you all? One more day until the weekend people, I am in need of a lie in!

So today I am going to show you the nails I wore for my trip last weekend. I flew up to Edinburgh with four of my friends for a weekend of sightseeing, shopping, eating and drinking.. but the main reason for our trip was to see the Pandas at Edinburgh Zoo. I had a wonderful weekend and the Pandas were very cute and cuddly looking. Naturally I needed panda themed nails to match the occasion :).

Pick A Polish: Dream - White Lace

Hi loves. I hope you are all well. Apologies I had a little hiatus over the weekend.. I was on a weekend away in Edinburgh and I had meant to schedule Saturday's post, but I completely forgot to schedule it.. doh! But I will be back to posting as normal now :).

So for this week's Pick A Polish Dream - White Lace was chosen. I was a bit stumped when this polish was chosen.. I use white a lot for details in nail art but it's not normally the focus of it, so coming up with an idea I liked was a bit of a challenge for me. But I got there in the end :).

Pastel Chevrons

Hi loves. How are you all? I've been really pleased with the response to my giveaway so far.. if you haven't already entered make sure you check it out. There is a link in my sidebar.

Recently I got some nail vinyls as I'd seen a lot of people using them on instagram and I wanted to join in on the chevron fun (I am way too lazy to freehand them). I'd also recently got a few new China Glazes polishes from their City Flourish collection so I wanted to try some of those out. So all that resulted in some pastel chevrons :).

Copycat Saturday - Dotticure Flowers

Hi loves. How are your weekends going? I'm still ill, the weather is so lovely today and I am stuck at home waaah! :(

So for this week's Copycat Saturday manicure I went for this simple floral dotticure by Cubbiful. I really loved this design when I saw it, I liked the simplicity and the unusual colour, so I decided to recreate it for myself.

I Love Nail Polish Swatches and Nail Art.

Hello lovelies. How are you all? I don't usually post on a Friday.. I meant to post this yesterday but I've got the flu and was in bed most of yesterday. I'm still not well but I have managed to drag myself out of bed to post this today cos I wanna share them.

Today I am going to show you the polishes I got from the I Love Nail Polish Spring Collection. I thought this collection looked amazing so I had to snap up a few when the pre order started. I managed to restrain myself and just bought two. I decided I liked the look of them together so I did some nail art too :).

Copycat Saturday - Tribal Triangles.

Hi everyone. It's the weekend! I hope you're all having a good one so far. I've had a fairly productive day so far which makes a change haha!

So it's time for Copycat Saturday, this week I went with a design that I have been meaning to recreate for ages! The design in question is this gorgeous tribal manicure by The Lacquerologist. This manicure has always stuck in my head since she posted it about 6 months ago.. I like how it is quite simple compared to most tribal designs, but it is still very striking :).

Copycat Saturday: Scattered Flowers and Hearts.

Hi everyone. How's your weekend going? I have had a very lazy day today, but I'm looking forward to a trip to London tomorrow.

For this week's Copycat Saturday design I decided to go with this design by fellow British blogger One Nail To Rule Them All. I was feeling something girly and pretty so figured  this would fit well.
