MoYou Nails Review - Plate 127

Provided for review*

Hi everyone. It's Friday!

I've got another review for MoYou Nails today, this time for plate 127. Since we're now well on our way to Christmas I figured it's about time to start my wintry and festive designs! So I have the first of those for you today.

Silver Holo Sparkles for my Birthday.

Hello everyone. It's my birthday!!! I'm 21 now, so I feel like I should be acting more like an adult, but I don't think I want to ha! 

My main celebrations for my birthday were last weekend, when I went for my weekend away in London. I wanted something outrageously sparkly. I initially planned to do some nail art but once I had done my base I just couldn't put anything over it, it's so pretty!

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!

A2Z - A is for Angles

Hello everyone. I hope you are all well. I am absolutely knackered today and I'm feeling a bit under the weather... thank god it's Friday tomorrow!

NEW CHALLENGE ALERT!! I have been very excited for today as I am starting another nail art challenge. Previously a group of bloggers collaborated on the AtoZ series, where they posted each week about polishes corresponding to each letter in the alphabet (all the posts can be found here). The lovely Charlie of Pocket Money Polishes very kindly invited me to be part of the second generation of this challenge.. A2Z. The difference this time is that there is a theme each week to create nail art with - which is right up my street (in case you hadn't guessed). We're kicking off the challenge with angles as our theme for A.

Pick A Polish: Barry M - Greenberry

Hello loves. I hope your Monday's haven't been too much of a struggle! My day at work went surprisingly quickly today. 

I have this week's Pick A Polish to show you today and this week I have been using Barry M - Greenberry. This is one of Barry M's Gelly polishes which is a line that I love so I have had a fair bit of use out of this polish already.

52 Week Pick & Mix Challenge: Three Colour Gradient/Pink (with Butterfly Glitters from The Nail Arcade)

Provided for review*

Hello my loves. It's nearly Friday!

I have possibly my girliest manicure ever to show you today. I'm also killing two birds with one stone and combining this week's 52 Week Challenge and my review for some cute little butterfly glitters from The Nail Arcade. The themes this week for the 52 week challenge are pink and three colour gradient.. so I went for a pink gradient (I'm a creative genius, I know :P).

Pick A Polish: Essie - Aruba Blue

Hi lovelies. I hope Monday has treated you well. It was my first day back at work today so it was a bit of a struggle for me!

Monday means Pick A Polish and this week I will be showing you Essie - Aruba Blue. This has to be one of my all time favourite blues - it's such a rich, deep, beautiful blue. I've used this plenty of times before and it's been on the blog a fair bit too. This is a polish I think everyone needs in their stash.

Simple Plaid Nails

Hello lovelies. How are you all? I've just finished my last full day at work before I am off on my holiday, so I'm quite excitable today. I've still got posts scheduled for while I'm away, I just won't be active on social media or be able to reply to any comments until I get back.

Since the weather is turning here in the UK I have been wanting to wear more autumnal things on my nails lately (even though I'm going to be in sunny Rhodes in a few days lol). I came across this gorgeous design on Druid Nails and thought this was literally the most perfect design for the autumn so put it on my nails right away.

Pick A Polish: Laquerdaisical - Parma's A Bitch.

Hello my loves. I hope your Monday hasn't been too taxing, my working day went quite quickly which was nice. 

I'm back with this week's Pick A Polish today, this week I will be showing you Laquerdaisical - Parma's A Bitch. Laquerdaisical is a UK indie brand, made by a lovely lady who actually lives in the same town as me (which to me is very exciting). This is actually a UK Indie brand that is still trading too, I think most of the UK indies I show you in these posts have now stopped trading - but this is one of the few left.

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).

Pick A Polish: Belle Glamour - Wink Wink.

Hi my loves. Happy Monday. This is my last full week at work before I go on holiday, so I reckon this week is going to go slowly :P.

I have this week's Pick A Polish post for you today and another UK indie to show you. I seem to be on a UK indie roll with these posts lately :). This week's polish is Belle Glamour - Wink Wink. Belle Glamour is another UK indie which unfortunately isn't trading any more but I did get quite a few polishes from this brand whilst I could.

Hello loves. It's FRIDAYY! I hope you all have lovely weekend's ahead of you.

Pick A Polish: Avon - Decadence.

Hello everyone. Happy Monday!

This week for Pick A Polish, Avon - Decadence was the chosen one. This is a very old polish in my stash that I haven't used in forever. I'm glad I rediscovered it though as it's pretty lovely.

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.

For more details read on after the jump.

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.

Pick A Polish: Picture Polish - Shy Violet.

Hello my loves. Happy Monday. I'm on a late shift today so I have decided to do a morning post for you, so I don't have to rush it when I get home from work.

I am back today with this week's Pick A Polish, this week I chose piCture pOlish - Shy Violet. This is a brand I love, but I only own a few polishes by them.. I think that may possibly change in the future!

Copycat Saturday: Skulls and Diamonds

Hello lovelies. How are you all? I'm glad its the weekend (as usual) and I am looking forward to a meal out with my friends this evening.

Its time for this week's Copycat manicure and this week I have recreated this design by XOXO Alexis Leigh. I haven't copied this one exactly, I have made a couple of changes (mainly because I don't own suitable stamping plates) but it is definitely very similar.
