A2Z: K is for Kitschy.

Hi everyone. It's nearly Friday! I am quite looking forward to my weekend now :). 

This week for A2Z we had a choice between 'kitchen sink' and 'kitschy'... I decided to go for kitschy on this one. I'm not 100% sure I've quite got kitschy down to a tee, but I tried!

52 Week Pick & Mix Challenge: Film & Holo

Hello loves. How are we all? 

This week for the 52 Week Challenge the themes are film and holo. This is the first week in this challenge that I haven't combined both of the themes... I have to be quite honest I don't watch that many films so I always struggle when film themes come up in challenges. But the beauty of this challenge is that it is flexible, so I just went for the holo side of things.

MoYou Nails Review - Plate 126

Provided for review*

Hi everyone. I hope you're all having a lovely Saturday. Mine has been spent doing odd jobs around my flat and nail painting :). 

I have my penultimate review for MoYou Nails for you today, this time for plate 126. This is more of a summery style plate in my opinion, but it still has some lovely images.

A2Z - F is for Fashion

Hello everyone. How are you all? 

We're on F for A2Z now and this week the theme is Fashion. After a lot of browsing the internet I settled on recreating this top by Alexander McQueen. It's not something I would ever wear, but I thought it might look nice as a manicure which is the reason I picked it.

A2Z - C is for Copycat

Hi loves. I hope your week's are going well. I am still ill, I just can't seem to shake this bug off, I'm supposed to be going to a wedding tomorrow so I'm hoping I'll make some kind of miraculous recovery over night (not likely). 

It's time for this week's A2Z post, this week C is for copycat. I decided to copy a design from someone else and I went with these gorgeous nails by @deanne29 on Instagram. This is more of a summery design, but I loved it so much I thought I'd recreate it anyway!

Coral Roses

Hi everyone. I hope you've all had a lovely day.

I have some floral nails to show you today, I feel like I haven't done floral nails in forever (which is probably only a few weeks in reality) so I thought it was high time I did some more. I just got a few new OPI polishes from their Nordic collection so I wanted to use one of them too.

Born Pretty Store Review - Black Floral Water Decals.

Provided for review*

Hello everyone. I hope you've had a nice day. I didn't really want to go back to work today, but it wasn't so bad once I got there, plus it's only a four day week :).

I have another review for Born Pretty Store today, this time it's these black floral water decals I will be showing you. I fell in love with the middle design on the photo on the Born Pretty Store website created using these, that was the reason I chose these decals to review. I haven't quite managed to recreate that design exactly, I went for a simplified twist instead.

Born Pretty Store Review - Real Dried Flowers

*Provided for review.

Hello my lovelies. Happy Saturday, I hope you are all having a lovely day so far. I am spending my day catching up on blog stuff (it feels like I do this every Saturday at the moment, I need some more organisation in my life!).

Today I have a review of these lovely dried flowers from Born Pretty Store. They come in a pack with twelve different colours but I have just used one colour for my nails today. Each colour comes in a separate little pot so they are nice and easy to store. I have been wanting to try out dried flowers for ages, but I've never got round to actually buying any so I was pleased to give these a go.

Fingerfood's Theme Buffet - Retro.

Hi lovelies. It's Friiiiday! I'm looking forward to my weekend as I am going on a night out tomorrow with my bestie, which I haven't done in forever.

Today I have this week's Fingerfood's Theme Buffet to show you, this week the theme is retro. I wouldn't say retro is my usual style, so I wasn't overly inspired by this theme. But I took to google and eventually came across this image which I liked the look of. As usual with me it's a floral pattern, I really am a bit of a flower freak!

Pink Holo Flowers

Hello lovelies. It's almost Friday, I am looking forward to the weekend (as usual).

I have some more girly nail art inspired by someone else to show you today. This time I have stolen this design by Vic and Her Nails, because I clearly can't think of my own designs at the moment. But it's pretty and pink so that makes everything okay ;).

Pick A Polish: Belle Glamour - Emerald City

Hi lovelies. A slightly later post from me today, I took my sister out shopping for her birthday straight after work. It was fun but I am glad to be sat on my sofa now, having a rest :).

I have another Belle Glamour polish to show you for Pick A Polish this week. I did another one of these posts on a Belle Glamour polish just over a month ago here. This time it is Belle Glamour - Emerald City that I will be showing you. I have swatched this one before but never worn it as a full manicure.

Fingerfood's Theme Buffet - Inspired by Fabric/Clothing.

Hi everyone. Thank god it's Friday! I hope you all have nice weekends planned. I came home from work early today as I am still feeling ill, I'm hoping I can shake this illness off soon!

I have this week's Fingerfood's Theme Buffet to show you today and the theme this week is inspired by fabric/clothing. I was going to do another fashion inspired post, since I have been loving them lately.. but I stumbled across this duvet and decided I wanted to do that instead. It's pretty right?! I might have to get it for my bed :P.

Life In Lacquer's Nail Art Challenge - Floral

Hello everyone. Hope you're all well. I'm still feeling rather ill and I've spent six hours driving to and from a meeting today.. so I'm feeling a bit sorry for myself at the moment!

There is nothing that cheers me up more than some pretty floral nail art (sad, I know), and it just so happens that the theme for Life In Lacquer's Nail Art Challenge today is floral. So I have some pretty flowers to brighten my day (and hopefully yours too).

Holiday Nails!

Hello my loves. I'm back! I got home about half past four this morning so I am very very tired and not feeling too great now, but I had an amazing holiday and I want to go back already!

So today I had planned to show you the next Fingerfood's Theme Buffet prompt, however I realised this morning that last week's post should have been this weeks and I got all my prompts mixed up.. so I shall start again from next week lol. Instead I shall show you the nails I wore on holiday and also the nails I did for my friends.
