Pick A Polish: Avon - Midnight Green

Hello my loves. How is everyone? I went sales shopping today and I didn't buy any nail polish, I think there might be something wrong with me!

It's time for this week's Pick A Polish, this time in the form of Avon - Midnight Green. This is an older polish in my stash that I do tend to neglect, but boy is it pretty!

Pick A Polish: Models Own - Flip Flop

Hello lovelies. Happy Monday! Just two more days at work til Christmas now, we're nearly there! 

I have a very unseasonal polish to show you for this week's Pick A Polish; Models Own - Flip Flop. I felt a bit odd wearing neon in December, but I always wanted to choose the polishes for these posts at random so neon it was!

A2Z - Holographic

Hi everyone. Happy Thursday.. it's a week til Christmas! I can't believe it has come around so quickly! 

I have been looking forward to this A2Z theme since the start of the series - HOLOGRAPHIC!!! As I'm sure most of you know by now, holo is a true love of mine. I got my first CbL holo a little while back and haven't had a chance to use it yet, so today was the day!

Christmas Watermarble

Hello loves. How are you all? I've been at work this morning and I'm going go karting later which should be fun. 

I've been wanting to have another go at a watermarble for a while now. It's a technique which is still a struggle for me, but I really want to master it as I love how they look! I finally got a chance to sit down and do one last week, and since I'm starting to feel all festive I figured I would go with a Christmas colour scheme.

52 Week Pick & Mix Challenge: Camouflage and Dark Green

Hello loves. How are you all?

This week's themes for the 52 week challenge are camouflage and dark green. I feel like all I have done is stamping lately - so it was a nice change to do a non stamped manicure for today's post. This theme was a bit of a no brainer; camo with some dark green in it (how do I come up with these ideas?!).

52 Week Pick & Mix Challenge - Brush Stroke/Favourite Brand

Hello my loves. How are we all? 

I have this week's 52 week challenge post for you today. This week the themes are brush stroke and favourite brand. It was a toss up between Barry M and OPI for my favourite brand, and as I couldn't pick between the two I decided to count up which brand I have the most of and go with that. Turns out I have more OPI so OPI it was!

A2Z - D is for Dark.

Hello beauties. It's nearly Friday!! I'm off on a girls weekend away in London on Saturday for my birthday, so I'm even more excited for the weekend than I am normally.

This week the theme for A2Z is dark. I was quite looking forward to this theme, I've been enjoying my dark wintry colours lately which I so often neglect in my stash. It was nice to let one of my lesser used babies out to play today (yes, my polishes are my babies).

Grey and Green Splodge

Hello everyone. I hope everyone is well. My day was going okay until about half an hour ago when I reversed my car into a kerb, now my exhaust is hanging off! That is definitely not what I needed lol. 

I have an attempt at another Halloween manicure to show you today. I say an attempt as it totally didn't work out, but as it's for Halloween I think I can just about get away with this. I'm good at selling myself aren't I? :P

Halloween Slime

Hello beauties. How are we all? 

I've got my first Halloween manicure of the year to show you today. I have had this design in my head ever since I bought Apple Pie by Belle Glamour months ago. I thought this polish was the perfect fit for a Halloween manicure so obviously it had to be the first one I did!

Colour Block Leaves

Hello lovelies. I hope you are all having a lovely weekend, this is another scheduled post. Hopefully I am starting to build up my tan by now!

Today I have some autumn-y, leafy nails to show you. I decided to try and be a bit unique with my leaves and do a colour clock type design, I have to admit it looked a lot better in my head :P.

Born Pretty Store Review: Concept Eyes - Star Green Polish

Provided for review*

Hi guys. Happy Saturday! I've been trying to get myself a bit more organised for my holiday today, I don't feel very prepared at all at the moment!

I have another Born Pretty Store review for you today, this time for a polish. The polish I went for was a bright teal/green polish which you can find here (no.3 on the site). This is the first polish I have tried from Born Pretty Store so I was intrigued to see if it was any good, especially since it's so cheap. I also did some nail art, because I can't just leave a polish alone :P.

I have another stamping plate to show you today from Born Pretty Store. The plate in question is M89 which has a mixture of different style full nail designs and some teeny little flowers. This one has a great variety of designs. I was excited to have another go at stamping as I'm actually starting to enjoy the process now.

Green Nails for Depression #fightforlightandlive

Hi everyone. 

I don't usually post on a Sunday - but this is for a good cause so I had to take part. In honour of comedy legend Robin Williams, there has been a tag started on Instagram to raise awareness for depression. Today people will be posting their green manicures for this great cause. I don't suffer from depression myself but members of my family do, and I know it's a problem that affects millions of people. Despite it being such a big problem, I think it is also quite misunderstood and a bit of a taboo subject - so if this tag is going to make people more aware of what a struggle having depression can be then I'm glad to be a part of it. You can find out more about depression here on the Mind website.

Life In Lacquer's Nail Art Challenge: Inspired by Another.

Hello everyone. It's nearly Friday! I've had a fairly uneventful day.

Today I have the final prompt for Life In Lacquer's Nail Art Challenge to show you today. I'm kinda sad this challenge is over, I always enjoy these kind of challenges! The theme today is inspired by another nail artist or blogger -  I decided to go for a design by the lovely Jade of Life In Lacquer herself.

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 - Skittle.

Hello everyone. Thank god it's Friday, I feel like this week has lasted forever and it is sooo hot today!

I have this week's Fingerfood's Theme Buffet post to show you today. My last post in this challenge I posted in the wrong week... oops! I didn't post one last week so I should hopefully have the right week now ;) haha. Today the theme is skittle, which means a different colour/pattern on each nail. Skittles are not something I wear that often so this prompt challenged me a bit (I guess that's the idea of a challenge though).

Life In Lacquer's Nail Art Challenge - Geometric

Hi guys. I hope you're all well. I am glad I am home today and that it's almost the weekend :).

Today it's time for the next prompt in Life In Lacquers Nail Art Challenge which is geometric. I was a bit stumped with this theme so in the end I just googled geometric patterns and stumbled across this pattern. I thought it was a something a bit different so I decided to go for it and put it on my nails :).
