April Tri Polish Challenge: Pink, Blue and Yellow.

Hi everyone. I hope you're not struggling with the bank holiday being over as much as I am.. I could do with another one next weekend!

It's Tri Polish Tuesday time! I'm really enjoying these posts lately, possibly because I am still in love with this months colour combo. I am glad there are five Tuesdays this month :). I've kept with the pastel theme for today's design.

Pick A Polish: Barry M - Blue Moon

Hi loves. I hope you all had a wonderful Easter and are enjoying the rest of the bank holiday weekend. I had a day out in London yesterday which was fun and I think I'm going to be having a bit of a lazy day today to recharge my batteries before work tomorrow.

So today I shall be showing you this week's Pick A Polish and this week it is Barry M - Blue Moon which I have been playing with. I used to use this one quite a lot (its quite hard to see in the photo but the bottle is actually half empty), but I haven't used it in a while so it was good to revisit an oldie.

Happy Easter!

Hello lovelies. Happy Saturday! A later post than normal from me, I went on a mega bike ride today.. I am now walking like I've crapped myself and I am completely exhausted. A nice gentle night in for me tonight I think!

Today I have my main Easter design for this year to show you. I have to be honest Easter doesn't hugely inspire me for nail art, I was planning on doing more designs but I couldn't think of anything more than what I've already shown you lol. But for today's manicure I decided to get in the spirit of things and went for an all out Easter-fest.

Easter Daffodils

Hello ladies. I hope everyone is excited for the bank holiday weekend :) I am still working tomorrow but have the other three days off after that which I am looking forward to.

Since it's now practically Easter I decided it was time to do some Easter inspired designs. For today's manicure I wanted something that wasn't totally in your face Easter, but still had the feel about it.. so I went for daffodils (I still have an in your face Easter post to come). I was perhaps being a little ambitious with these but I don't think I did too badly :).

April Tri Polish Challenge - Pink, Blue and Yellow.

Hello my lovelies. I hope everyone is well. I have felt very sleepy all day today, I think it might be time for an afternoon nap!

Tuesday means Tri Polish Challenge and I have this week's design to show you. April's colours are yellow, pink and blue.. I am loving this colour combo!

Copycat Saturday - Neutral Floral.

Hello my loves. Happy Saturday :) I am going on a nail polish hunt for Barry M's new limited edition shade today, it looks so gorgeous I need it!

Today I have this week's Copycat Saturday manicure to show you. This will be my last Copycat Saturday for a while, I have been struggling with inspiration lately and I'm thinking it might be because most of my manicures for the blog are done to a theme. So I've decided to relax my schedule a bit and now I'll have every weekend to post whatever I like :) (although I'm sure I'll still do plenty of posts inspired by other's designs anyway). 

Anyway... this week I was inspired by this gorgeous design by maya_tempaku on instagram. I loved the colours in this design, although it may be a bit more appropriate for autumn not spring. But I shall rebel against seasonally stereotypical colours for this post.

Autism Awareness Jigsaw Nails

Good afternoon my lovelies. One more day until the weekend, we are getting there!

Today I am going to show you the manicure I did in honour of Autism Awareness month. I don't actually know anyone with autism so this isn't a subject I am very knowledgeable on, but I know it is a very good cause and I'd like to do my bit to help raise some awareness. If you want to find out more about autism you can do so here.

April Tri Polish Challenge: Pink, Yellow and Blue.

Hello my lovelies. It's a lovely sunny afternoon today so I am feeling positive, it's amazing what a bit of sun can do for your mood :).

Today I am going to show you this weeks Tri Polish manicure. The colours for April are pink, yellow and blue. I thought I would struggle with this colour combo but I am happy with what I have come up with so far this month. I did say in my last Tri Polish post that I was going to try and do an Autism Awareness challenge so wouldn't be doing Tri Polish this month, however it all crept up on me too fast and I haven't had time for the challenge unfortunately. I do still have an autism awareness themed manicure lined up as my next post though :). Anyway...

Copycat Saturday - Blue Colour Block.

Good morning my lovelies. I hope you all have wonderful weekends planned. I am currently feeling the effects of a few too many cocktails last night, so I'm not sure today is going to be very productive!

Today I have this week's Copycat Saturday to show you, this week I was inspired by this blue beauty by The Polished Perfectionist. This girl's nails are so perfect but she doesn't seem to be posting any more which is a shame. I really loved this design and I'm not sure why it has taken me so long to recreate it.

April Tri Polish Challenge - Pink, Yellow and Blue.

Good afternoon polished ones! It's such a lovely day today, I have spent my day at work looking out the window wanting to be in the sun!

The start of a new month means a new Tri Polish Challenge theme. This month is pink, yellow and blue. I'm not sure if I will be able to participate in Tri Polish much this month as I'm hoping to join in on an autism awareness challenge I have seen floating around on facebook.. but I shall try my best. I fancied trying a new technique for this manicure, so I went with spun sugar nails :).

Pick A Polish: WRK Nails - Bang

Hi everyone. How are you all? 

Today I have this week's Pick A Polish manicure to show you. This week we have a UK indie in the form of WRK Nails - Bang. I have swatched this fairly recently on the blog in a haul post but this is what was chosen at random so I will show you again anyway :P.

March Tri Polish Challenge - Green, Blue and Purple.

Hello girlies. How are you all? If you haven't already entered my giveaway it closes at midnight so check that out. I just want to make it clear also that the international giveaway excludes UK entrants, since I have my UK giveaway for that. I have had a lot of UK entries on my international giveaway, so make sure you enter the right one or your entry won't count!

So today is the last Tri Polish Tuesday for this month's theme; green, blue and purple. I have really liked this colour combo, I think they go well together.

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: Blue Floral Manicure

Hello everyone. How are you all? I'm trying to catch up on blog posts today, what with my new job and everything that I've had going on lately my nails have taken a bit of a back seat.. but I am determined to keep up with my current posting schedule!

So for this week's Copycat Saturday post I decided to recreate this design by Raggio Di Luna Nails. If you don't already follow this girl, go check her out she does some flawless nail art!

I'm back with my second post for today, which are swatches of some new releases from Belle Glamour. I was contacted by Catriona recently and offered the polishes at a discount to swatch them, so of course I said yes. These were all released this morning so if you like what you see go and grab them while you can! 

There's some really cool polishes in this bunch, so I strongly recommend you carry on reading to see what they're like! :)
