French Tip & Chevron.

Hi lovelies. It's FRIDAY!! I hope you all have lovely plans for the weekend :). 

I recently came across this awesome manicure by Doctor Crafty whilst browsing blogs and immediately fell in love! So as soon as I got a chance I recreated it on my own nails.

Distressed Chevrons

Hi everyone. How are you all? I have had a very long day today, but I have a day off tomorrow so I am looking forward to that.

I have a manicure to show you today which involved the melding together of two techniques (I felt like pushing the boat out you see lol). I came across this image online and I thought I could recreate it with a mixture of the dry brushing technique and some chevron stickers.. so that is what I did :).

Sheer Tint Chevrons

Hi lovelies. It's nearly Friday! Plus I go on holiday in a week today so I am starting to get excited.

I've finally picked up the OPI Sheer Tints, I had been trying to decide whether I needed them for ages - but I saw them going pretty cheap on a Facebook group so I thought why not! Obviously I needed to use them, even though I may be jumping on the band wagon a few months late. I came across this design by @lemmingspolish on instagram and decided to give that a go.

Life In Lacquer's Nail Art Challenge - Blue.

Provided for review*

Hello everyone. I am feeling very under the weather today, my boyfriend has had a cold lately and I think he has passed it onto me :(. On the upside I bought a new car yesterday which I shall be picking up tomorrow so I am quite excited.

The next theme for Life In Lacquer's Nail Art Challenge is blue and that is what I am going to show you today. I was looking forward to this one as I love blue and I managed to use lots of lovely blues in this manicure. I also used some more of the Nail Stickrs* which I was sent a while back (I reviewed them here).

April Tri Polish Challenge - Pink, Blue and Yellow.

Hello my loves. I hope you are all well. I have a massive head ache at the moment, so I am going to go for an afternoon nap I think.

So today is the final Tri Polish Tuesday for April, there have been five Tuesdays this month so I was running out of ideas for this colour scheme lol. I was really loving the theme this month up until this week and I had a mind blank, and couldn't think of anything. So I have gone for something pretty standard this week, but that's not always a bad thing right?

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 :).

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 :).
